10. Brian W.
“Needed cat-sitter for the first time ever after moving to Vancouver recently and was a bit nervous, but Brian was super communicative, friendly and professional putting me at ease. Most importantly, my shy cat who hides from everyone came right out to say hi at our first meet and greet and liked him right off the bat. I loved the pics and little videos during my four day work trip which were really the highlights of each day. Ruby seemed like a happy camper when I got back and I plan to hire Brian again. Thank you, Brian!!”

20. Sawyer B.
About: I have been taking care of my family dogs (Beagles) for the entirety of my life and have a Border Collie/Blue Heeler of my own! My family beagles have been normal ability, high energy, and extra special (one with diabetes and epilepsy). My pup, Brody, is a typical Border heeler, with a ton of energy and love to give! I love animals a lot, and would love for this to turn my love of animals into a side gig! I am a local university professor, and am very responsible and trustworthy. I do work the typical 8-5 Mon-Fri, but am pretty flexible with timing of visits and am free on weekends! I am familiar with all breeds of dogs and cats, and have worked closely with my Aunt who breeds Pitbulls and American Bulldogs! I am so excited to be working with you, and hope to meet you and your furry friend soon! I am currently working full time, but am able to take time away as needed. Working the typical 8-5 means while I may be busy during the week, I am still able to provide fantastic care in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. I have experience in both animals that prefer the lazy couch life as well as a regimented routine with the crate. Regardless of your pets preference, I will be able to follow through with training and your families structure to ensure your pet doesn’t miss a beat.
