Safety, trust & environment

Safety and respect are central to every visit. I care for each pet and home with attentiveness, professionalism, and care. In your home, I maintain a clean, organized environment and follow all feeding, hygiene, and care routines as instructed. Food and water bowls, litter boxes, and pet areas are kept tidy, and I am mindful of doors, gates, leashes, and secure access at all times. I prioritize calm, gentle handling and adjust my energy to match your pet’s temperament. My goal is to create a safe, predictable experience that supports your pet’s comfort and well-being. During extreme weather conditions (heat, cold, or storms), dog walks may be modified to drop-in visits to ensure safety.

Information Rena G. would like to know about your pet

Before your first visit, it’s helpful for me to understand: • Your pet’s daily routine • What helps them feel comfortable and secure • Any medical needs or medications • Behavioural quirks, anxieties, or triggers • Training cues and reinforcement methods you use Prior to our meet and greet, I provide a detailed intake form to gather this information and ensure care is tailored to your pet’s individual needs. Clear communication helps me provide calm, consistent, personalized care while maintaining the routines your pet knows and trusts.

A typical day

Every visit is tailored to your pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level. For dogs, this may include neighbourhood walks, adventures, enrichment activities, playtime, and positive interaction. For cats and bunnies, visits include feeding, fresh water, litter or enclosure care, gentle play, enrichment, and companionship based on their comfort level. My goal is to create a balanced visit that meets both practical needs and emotional well-being, helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. Additional quality time, park outings, plant care, medication administration, and light home care tasks may be available upon request.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Rena G., M.Sc., owner of Pawsitively Purrfect Pet Sitting Kamloops, a licensed and insured professional pet care business. With over 15 years of hands-on experience, I specialize in caring for senior, shy, and special needs pets, including those requiring medications and extra support. Having cared for my own geriatric cats with complex medical needs, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attentive observation. I am Pet First Aid certified and currently completing Fear Free certification. My academic background in animal ethics and welfare helps shape my calm, thoughtful, and compassionate approach to pet care. I provide private dog walks and adventures, as well as in-home drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and bunnies. Every visit is tailored to your pet’s unique routine, personality, and comfort level. As a full-time professional pet sitter, my focus is on providing calm, consistent, personalized care while giving pet parents peace of mind. Detailed photo updates are provided after every visit so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

Rena was so lovely and our pepper dog thought so too. She made it so easy with no stress we knew our dog was in good hands.

If you are lucky enough to secure Rena as your pet sitter or dog walker you have won the lottery! She is very organized, super loving to the animal and we couldn't have been happier with the service she provided. Thank you Rena!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
