“Kris was so helpful! All questions I asked were answered promptly and clearly, and while Aniol my nearly two year old dog stayed at Kris's family home, he seemed to have a safe and comfortable experience! I was so grateful for updates in words and pictures! We will certainly bring Aniol to Kris's again.”
“We had a very good experience with Christina, Super reliable, easy to communicate with, and clearly cared a lot about Baldomero.Would definitely trust them again—highly recommend!”
“Friendly and professional. The photo updates put me even more at ease, seeing that he was enjoying himself. That there is a dog run nearby and he’s taken for night walks was a bonus.”
“Fantastic stay with Kelsey and her family :) Frankie was super friendly and gave all the space that Jammy needed. Kelsey kept us updated regularly. Will definitely recommend Kelsey! Thanks so much Kelsey”
“Kelsey and family are a lovely home for our little Yorkie. I appreciate having a local, quality dog sitting arrangement. I have no hesitation recommending Kelsey as a pet companion and home sitting service.”
“I needed a boarder last minute for a trip and I’m so happy Daisy took Mijo in, he had an awesome time! He went for walks and played his heart out. I can tell mijo was lovingly cared for while I was away and I would definitely board mijo again with Daisy. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Sophia was wonderful and exactly the kind of person we were looking for to watch after our little bug for the first time. I could tell right away that she holds a lot of care and respect for animals, and I think Nori was even a little unsure about saying goodbye. She even kindly sent Nori home with a toy that she fell in love with! She gave us plenty of photos and updates, and was incredibly flexible with our schedule and Nori’s need. I can’t wait for Nori to visit Sofia and her three pups again, and highly recommend if you’re looking for a sitter you can trust! ❤️”
“Our dogs love their holidays with Bill and Gerie. It is always such relief to spend time on holiday without worrying about your fur babies. We are repeat customers who thoroughly recommend Bill and Gerie.”
“July and her family took real good care of my Luna. Usually Luna is a little nervous with new locations but July was very patient and caring with Luna giving her time to get acclimated to her surrounding. July sent many pictures and videos of my Luna having fun which put me at ease. I definitely recommend July and her wonderful family as your host for your pet.”

“Jack had a great time staying with Chelsea and her dogs and other boarders. I appreciated Chelsea’s willingness to accept a lengthy last minute request when my usual sitter canceled. Her communication was great, she clearly cares for dogs, and her facilities are excellent. I would highly recommend her services to any of my family and friends.”
“Daisy had a good stay with April and her husband. I would absolutely recommend them to look after your fur Babe. It was great receiving the pictures of Daze while I was away and it also reassured me she was in great care. Thank you again for giving her a home away from home while I was away.”
“Criofan is absolutely amazing with dogs! It’s so clear how much she truly loves and cares for animals. She was incredibly dedicated to our dogs’ well-being, safety, and happiness the entire time. Her dog Albert was the perfect companion and brought so much joy, exercise, and positive energy to our dogs. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”

“Lenore took great care of my dog. Scout and her dog, Rook, seemed to get along and it was great to know that she was staying in a “dog friendly house.” It can be hard to leave your dog behind with a stranger, but I felt confident that she would be well cared for.”
“All the reviews are true, Tiana was fantastic and we felt our dog was well taken care off. We really appreciate the pictures and video updates throughout our trip. Thank you!”

“Jonathan has become a real staple sitter for us! My dog Luna has an absolute blast and the level of care is great. She gets lots of walks, cuddles and play time with their lovely dog Indy. Jonathan is very communicative and I always look forward to the photo updates. Would definitely recommend as a sitter.”
“Nick and Rebecca were great! They were responsive to texts and sent me a couple of pupdates while they were watching Peach. They seem to be very accustomed to caring for dogs and made sure they had enough information to make sure my dog was safe and comfortable staying with them.”
“Criofan was great, we were travelling from Edmonton and decided to do a last minute Whale Watching Tour. Within 5 minutes Criofan responded and we had Luna booked in to play for the day. We really appreciated the late night pick up at 10pm, was flexible for us to enjoy our time in Victoria without feeling rushed. The drive was only 20 mins, but was definitely worth the drive, huge space for Luna to run with Albert. Really appreciated the messages after dropping Luna off, put my mind at ease that she was behaving. Highly recommend, we got back a happy tired pooch!”

About: Hi there! We are Allison and Tarun! We’re an active, reliable, dog-loving couple offering boarding and daycare in the Hillside area. What makes us a great fit: - Two attentive caregivers (lots of supervision & flexibility) - Active lifestyle with daily walks (trail access right outside our door) - Calm, structured home environment, with individualized care and attention A little about us: I previously worked at a dog daycare in Vancouver, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages and temperaments, including high-energy and more reactive dogs. My partner of 11 years, Tarun is a life-long dog-lover and outdoor adventure seeker looking to explore more of the island. Tarun and I also had a husky together, Loki, who sadly passed away in September, we truly understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pup. We both genuinely miss having a dog around and we would love to be able to provide the same level of care and attention to your pup as we did with our Loki. Hope to hear from you soon, we'd love to meet you! I work part-time mostly in the evenings, while my partner works full-time during the day, so between the two of us there is almost always someone home. On the rare occasions we are both working, your dog would typically be alone for no more than three hours at a time. I’m home during the day and love getting outside as much as I can, so going on walks and spending time outdoors are a big part of the routine. My partner works at MEC and usually craves time outdoors when he's not at work and he's definitely been missing having a trail buddy! Dogs in our care can expect regular walks, fresh air, and plenty of love and attention. Overall, our schedule allows us to provide a balanced mix of activity, supervision, and downtime, and we’re happy to adapt to each dog’s specific needs and routine. Safety and comfort are a top priority in our home. We provide a calm, clean, and well-supervised environment where dogs can relax and feel at ease. Our space is open concept, which allows us to keep a close eye on dogs at all times. Dogs are welcome on the couch for cuddles if they would like, we also have a dog bed and blankets if they would prefer. We have rugs throughout the home to help prevent slipping, especially for senior dogs or those with mobility issues. Our flooring is durable and easy to clean, so we’re not concerned about the occasional mess and can focus on keeping your dog comfortable instead. Outdoor time is always supervised, and walks are done securely on leash. With trail access just steps from our door, your pup will get regular exercise in a safe and peaceful neighbourhood. With two of us at home, there’s always a high level of supervision, attention, and care so you can feel confident knowing your dog is safe, relaxed, and well looked after.
“Li is a dog trainer, and his entire backyard is set up for dogs. Joey returned calm and happy, and he even had a treadmill walk! What a great place 100% recommend and will return. Thank you Li.”
“Annie was super responsive when we were searching for a dog sitter for the day and made herself available at the very last minute. Our dog seemed to have a great time and was exhausted and happy when we picked him up in the evening.”
“Bianca was great with our little guy Bruno, she was very accommodating when we had some issues with our building and had to change the schedule. She is responsive and we will not hesitate to bring our dog to her care next time we require it.”
“10/10! Highly recommended. Very good communication and came through on short notice. Very helpful and flexible. My boy had a great time playing with theirs. Lots of activity and care.”
