Your dog will enjoy: A fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time A calm, non-smoking home Lots of affection and quiet companionship Daily photo updates for your peace of mind Consistent routines tailored to your dog’s needs If you’re looking for boutique-style, low-stress boarding rather than a busy, crowded environment, I would love to connect. Let’s schedule a meet & greet to ensure it’s a perfect fit for everyone. I work exclusively from home and have a fully flexible schedule, allowing me to provide focused, attentive care for your pup throughout the day. I’m happily a homebody and truly enjoy spending quality time with the dogs in my care. Providing companionship and dedicated attention to your beloved pet is both an honor and a privilege, and I genuinely look forward to it. Love, comfort, and safety are always my top priorities.

“We’ve used Juan several times and will continue to send our Lucy there when we can’t take her with us. He’s kind, quick to respond, and gives updates and pictures.”

“Natalie did a great job taking care of my fearful dog while I was out of town. Winston is very nervous about new people and she took things at his pace, setting up her home to make sure he would be comfortable and safe. She sent regular updates with photos, which I appreciated.”


About: Have always been surrounded by pets of my own (such as cats, dogs, rodents, birds, and reptiles), and have done pet sitting for dogs of all sizes for family friends over the years. I’m a stay at home girl with plenty of time on my hands that I’d like to spend doing what I love, which is caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. While I do stay in an apartment, I have all the time to go for lots of walks and potty breaks. I live by a beautiful creekside trail that is simply perfect for taking long walks along. I have two cats. One of which is shy and minds his own space, and another who absolutely loves all people and pets, so they do just fine around other animals. I have a large kennel with a bed to give dogs a comfortable space of their own to relax in, as I know that some dogs rather enjoy that, but crating is not necessary.
Vancouver pet parents share their Rover experiences
Fran was wonderful! She took amazing care of Pepper, taking her on walks, providing plenty of toys, setting up her blanket for a comfortable place to sleep that reminded her of home and even taking her to a swimming hole. She provided regular updates including videos and photos. I was able to fully enjoy my time away knowing that Pepper was having fun with Fran and her pup Murphy. Fran clearly loves dogs and has lots of experience. Do not hesitate to book with Fran.

I had to have surgery and needed someone to watch my boy for a month. Maryorie was FANTASTIC! It was such a relief to know he was taken care of and gave me the grace to be able to focus on healing instead of worrying. I HIGHLY recommend her and will definitely use her again.

Deboye was wonderful with Johnny, and we would 100% book with him again. From the start, he took all of our notes and concerns seriously, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell Johnny was in great hands and being really well cared for. He was so sweet about meeting Johnny at his own pace and never pushing him too quickly, which helped him settle in comfortably. He picked up on Johnny’s little quirks and routine right away, stayed on top of his meds, and kept him on his normal schedule. We also really appreciated all of the updates and photos throughout the stay — we missed our pup a lot, and it was such a comfort getting those check-ins and knowing he was doing well. Deboye is attentive, responsible, flexible, and genuinely kind. We’re so grateful for the care he gave Johnny and wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. We’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone thoughtful and trustworthy to care for their dog.

I cannot express how relieved I am to have found such a wonderful Dog Sitter. My dog can be a little nervous at times, and she was perfectly comfortable for a long stay with Vivian. Vivian sent pictures each day, and I could see how comfortable Blanca was in her care. 100% recommend Vivian, and will be sure to bring Blanca back regularly, as they have formed a great bond. Thank you Vivian, I know Blanca looks forward to seeing you again.

Sean did great with your 2 small dogs even with the short notice. This was our first time leaving our little guys with anyone. Sean was waiting outside to greet us as we pulled. He was great about sending regular updates and pictures. We would highly recommend him. We will definitely be booking with Sean in the future.
Shadie did really well with Reuben and he warmed up to her quickly, since this was his first time being watched by her. She let him play in background with other dogs and snuggle with him and he overall had a blast and was comfortable. She also is great with communication and send frequent photos of Reuben. Definitely recommend.
