Pet care experience
Full time, loving pet care
🐾 Hi! We’re Menka and Chris We’re a couple based in Vancouver who care for pets and homes while owners are away. We’re reliable, experienced, and able to stay full time so your pets and your house are looked after the whole time. 🐕 About Chris (36M) Chris grew up around animals and has raised: • Two dogs, a collie and a poodle • Two cats of his own, who both lived to 19 That long life says a lot about the steady, attentive care he gives. He has dog sat for friends and family for years, and he’s calm and patient, which helps pets settle with him quickly. He’s careful with feeding schedules and medication, so senior pets and those with health needs are in good hands. He has also cared for horses that needed medication. 🐈 About Menka (33F) Menka has raised two cats of their own and pet sat for many others, including caring for a cat through her pregnancy and looking after the whole litter of kittens afterward. They’ve also house sat for several families around Vancouver. Menka sends daily photo and text updates so you always know how your pet is doing, and they look after every home with care and respect.

Ratings and reviews
Menka took such attentive and wonderful care of our pup in our home while we were away. She prioritized his needs and was so thoughtful, sending us many updates and pictures. We are so happy we met Menka and fully recommend her, she is such a lovely person. Thank you Menka
Menka and Chris are incredibly considerate and diligent housesitters and pet caregivers. As soon as they arrived, they kept us informed on how things were going and included lots of photos. They had zero issues following Poppy's schedule and were extremely kind every step of the way. They are now our go-to sitters for Poppy! Thanks again Menka and Chris.
Menka was excellent, she kept us updated, took very good care of our pup, and was punctual and friendly. We will definitely book with Menka again!
Menka and Chris did an amazing job taking care of Marvin and Bingo. My dogs were happy, healthy and tired! They even cared for one dog who had diarrhea at the beginning of their stay. Iodates were frequent, good detail, cute pictures and videos. They also left my home very clean and were a welcome presence with neighbours. Absolute peace of mind!
Menka right away accommodated Jayjay upon request. She and Jay got along very well and he trusted her in no time at all. Shes very trustworthy and pleasant to be around i would recommend her to any first timers like myself.
Menka was super sweet and kept me up to date by sending pictures. I would 100% contact her again if I ever need my kitten to be boarded.
