Cat Sitting in Orcas

“Lizz was great! She gave us regular updates and made sure our kitty swallowed her pills (never an easy task). She communicated well and showed up right on time. I would happily book her again!”

“They are an absolute dream! Letting my cat just love on them and send so many pictures! Would 1000% use them again. Highly recommend.”

“Sierra did a wonderful job caring for our two cats while we were away on vacation for 2 weeks! She did daily drop in visits for us and sent us daily updates and pictures. She was great with our cats and even our super shy cat came around for pets/attention by the end! One of our cats needed a daily pill and Sierra did a great job with him even though he’s a bit grumpy from the medication. She was also super helpful in other aspects including sorting out our finicky litter robot and tidying around the litter boxes as our cats like to leap out the box. Overall, we are very pleased, she was very communicative, and we really appreciate her care! We would definitely recommend Sierra for anyone looking for cat care!”

“I needed a sitter for my old French bulldog last minute. Katrina was so nice and willing even when I had to make changes and give probably too many notes about the requirements of caring for my dog. 😅 Definitely recommend her! I felt taken care of when Katrina watched my Frenchie. My Frenchie loved her too!”

About: I have owned dogs, cats, chameleons, and rabbits throughout my life. I’ve always loved the companionship a pet provides and have enjoyed nurturing such loving animals. I am passionate about providing proper care to animals and have a calm and patient demeanor with them. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks and I also enjoy hiking with dogs to keep more with their energy. I believe in the proper care and treatment of animals and will make sure that all of my effort goes into providing the best care possible. I’m very flexible and willing to pick up and drop of at the owners convenience to save them travel. I am educator so my availability is before and after school and weekends! I live a very active lifestyle which fits perfectly when adding a furry friend into my routine! In my clients home I care for the pets the same way a family member would, my job is to make your pet as comfortable as I can while you are gone.

“Jase took great care of our 2 kittens while we were away for a long weekend trip. He fed them, played with them, and cared for them like they were his own. This helped me relax during my vacation, knowing that they were in great hands.”

“Isabella was the best sitter we have ever had! She was super responsive and communicative, extremely respectful of our home, amazing with our animals, incredibly friendly, and sent us so many sweet videos and pictures of our cat! We would/will book her again in a heartbeat!”

“Perfect care for our cat, Leo. Nick connected so well with Leo and understood what he wanted when they went outside for a walk. Pictures and narratives kept us feeling confident Leo was in excellent hands! A+”

“Violet took great care of our boy, being flexible to make sure he was comfortable indoors and outdoors and being extra mindful of the weather! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and responsive sitter!”

“I highly recommend Kaetlyn for your pet sitting needs. She was respectful and patient with my dog who can have stranger danger. She was prompt with her visits and I felt that she really cared for my dog. I plan on hiring her again in the future! Thanks, Kaetlyn!”

About: I offer dependable and attentive pet care for animals of all shapes and sizes. With a calm and grounded approach, I create a peaceful, safe environment while respecting each pet’s unique needs, routine, and personality. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, play, or companionship, I would love to meet your pet! My schedule is currently very flexible. I’m available to offer thoughtful, individualized pet and house sitting. I genuinely enjoy keeping cats company, walking dogs, watering plants, or just making sure everything feels cared for while you’re away. I’m open to daytime and overnight visits. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique routine, needs, and personality. I strive for you and your pet to feel at ease while you’re away. I like to prepare for visits by learning what’s important to you and your pet, what you need from me, and what your pet might need in your absence. I care about cleanliness and do my best to ensure that your space is tidy for your return.

“Wonderful!”

“Nabil took great care of my cats while I was out of town. He was very communicative with me about what they were up to, and even accommodated a schedule change I made last minute. Absolutely trust and book Nabil for your pets.”

About: Animals are wonderful beings! They have a way of reminding us to slow down, be present and get outside. Having been without pets for quite a number of years, I am missing their presence in my life. I grew up with poodles, springer spaniels and terriers. I had two cats of my own (Ruth and Monica) and loved them dearly. I'm considering a move to a quieter (and more rural) part of Vancouver Island and am looking to explore some of the areas outside of Victoria and house/pet sitting is a great way to get a feel for other communities. I'm also interested in exploring areas of the BC interior. I'm a devoted, reliable, dedicated animal lover and I take pride in doing any project to the best of my ability. I have a care-giver background, having worked in dental health and as a yoga teacher for many years. I have lots of experience with landscaping and I love to garden. I love building connections with people & animals. I am 'trauma-informed' and am familiar with 'Force Free' training principles. I'm comfortable with older pets and giving some meds as needed also. I've recently received a refresher with chicken coop care --gathering eggs, cleaning and maintaining the coop as well. Let's touch base with a phone call first to get a sense of each other. From there, if the 'fit' feels good--I'm happy to meet up in person on Vancouver Island. Alternatively, we can meet on video to get a feel for each other also. Looking forward to caring for your precious animal friends. I'm working on some entrepreneurial and writing projects (WFM) so I'm happy to take pups out in the morning and evening for walks, and longer hikes on the weekend too! I love to hike and explore rural and forested areas. Exercise is an essential part of each of my days and I'm happy to continue the exercise routines that you have in place for your pets :). Breaks for 'play' time are great for pets and for humans too! As a detail oriented person with a healthcare background, I understand the importance of providing the highest level of care to your pets. All of my airbnb references are 5 star, as I believe in the importance of leaving a place better than you found it. I've got fantastic personal references also. I'm registered with THS and House Sitters Canada. I've got a recent police check also. I'm more than happy to meet and review things in detail over zoom or meet up in person on Vancouver Island. I'm happy to provide consistent, reliable and loving care with your detailed guidance and instructions. As a former health-care worker (dental assistant and dental hygienist), I understand the importance of detailed, compassionate care and supporting your pets needs and regular routines.

About: Experienced dog walker and sitter in Victoria, BC. Reliable and trustworthy with small dogs and cats of all ages. Flexible schedule and a good communicator. Pet care fits into my flexible schedule as i am an online graduate student who loves to get outside for physical activity and animal care time. I am thorough with my pet care and make sure everything is accounted for. I make sure the pet is happy with food, water, walks, play time and a cleaned litter/backyard.

“Maia was terrific with our cat, who is very shy with strangers. She put serious effort into getting the cat to trust her, and by the end of the time, the cat was even purring and allowing Maia to pet her. I also appreciated Maia's willingness to send me pictures and text updates of how things were going. Great job!”

“After some initial mix ups about our get acquainted appointment things went great. Kelly was good with DJ and he seemed to have a good time. If needed we would book Kelly again and would recommend her to others.”

About: I grew up with at least one dog at all times, sometimes as many as two or three. I dog sit regularly for friends and coworkers. I enjoy spending time will all types of dogs! I am young, active, and love being outside. I am confident in my ability to take care of dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I work in town and my hours are flexible, so I can spend valuable time with the dog(s) that I am watching. Thank you for reading my profile and for considering me to watch your pup! Feel free to reach out with any questions. I work a full time job but can be flexible to take breaks between 9-5 to take your dog out. I also have a dog friendly office, so if your dog likes to hang out in that type of environment I can easily be a companion all day at work. I have two dogs at home, so I prefer to stay at the home of the pet I am watching and have my husband take care of our two dogs separately.

“Krissy is new to us as a Rover and she is fantastic! She connected heart-to-heart with Maggie-Roo right away. Maggie-Roo felt comfortable to play some of her favorite games, i.e., "keep-away" and also to "just be". Krissy speaks fluent German Shepherd. We'll be contacting her again soon. Highly recommended.”

“Lauren went above and beyond and gave us great updates on our cat, we look forward to continuing to have her sit for us in the future. Highly recommend!”
