Pet care experience
Tailored care for petite/med pups
Born in beautiful British Columbia, I have been raised all my life with animals. Growing up I had budgie-birds, fancy chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, cats and dogs. One of my fondest childhood memories was doing the daily egg hunt in the backyard- those free range chickens could be creative!!! Every one of our animals were a cherished part of the family. In 2023 we said goodbye to our beloved senior Yorkies Alley and Kneesa. They were 17 & 18 yrs respectively. In their later years their needs changed. As such, I’m experienced and happy to accommodate pups with medication and mobility assistance. Just like humans, in old age our seniors require more help! In 2025 we welcomed 2 new editions to our family. Winnie Skullcrusher is a 4 lb bundle of spunk! She has a lot to say and usually establishes the pack leader position straight away. Maizie Dill Pickle is her 5 lb Yorkie best friend. She’s super submissive and loves to give kisses. We also have 2 lovely SPCA rescue bunnies. They live in a spacious rabbitat in the backyard and love to say hello to our pup friends. I had the privilege to volunteer at Kindred Community Farm Sanctuary in 2023. Kindred houses animals that have been discarded or have disabilities. Example- old horses that can’t be ridden. Ducks bred for meat that are obese and can’t walk due to hormones given from the food industry. The job was primarily cleaning but during cleans I was able to learn about the nutrition and environmental needs of species I was unfamiliar with (goats, horses, ducks, turkeys). This beautiful blind turkey Olive was amazing and my experience with her resonates. She loves to be sung to! She came to her food dish based on the sound of the dish clanging to her food stand. She had a great quality of life despite her limitations.

Safety, trust & environment
We offer a spacious fully fenced backyard and an impeccably clean and air conditioned home with many cozy spots/doggy beds to relax in. While caring for your babies I genuinely have their best interests at heart. It’s sincerely an honour getting to know them. I’m an introvert and more inclined to develop friendships with animals more so than humans. My goal with every pup that stays is the next time they return that they wag whine and bark to come back! I feel incredibly lucky to do what I love and share in your pups lives. First time Rover customers please ask me about a $20 discount!

Lily had the best time and was crying when she had to leave Sierra .Sierra was kind and loving & I can tell Lily felt safe and at home .Lily is still exhausted from all the fun she had .Cant be more thrilled to have good quality care for my girl.
Nacho had the best time at your house with your family. I am so nervous leaving him anywhere as his senior dog requirements make it hard. I very much appreciated your making it easy for me and loving him like he was your own!! Highly recommend!!
Sierra and her family were so great with our baby, Dora!! Stayed the whole week and didnt want to leave! Definitely bringing her back if ever we need someone to watch her!
Sierra has done an amazing job taking care of my fur baby George! He has been going there for a few months now and I have to say he is treated better than I can treat him when I’m home. Sierra takes her puppies on regular visits to various parks and parts of town, ensuring they have an enriched mental and physical day. My George has actually become a more confident doggy going to her. He use to get easily scared of loud sounds, but Sierra had the patience and took the time it needed for him to become more comfortable with the sounds. Now he’s so calm when walking near loud trucks or construction sites. I truly can’t say enough about how happy I am to have found Sierra. I can go to work with my mind at ease, knowing my fur baby will be well looked after with love.
Sierra took great care of Jack for the weekend. She sent daily photos and videos. He got lots of attention and exercise and clearly had a wonderful time!
Sierra is always fantastic with our dog.. Lots of exercise and he always has a great time . Thank you Sierra for taking care of him!
