"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
Chris was an outstanding pet sitter and I would definitely use him again! He is reliable, responsible, and thorough. I was able to FaceTime Chris prior to the sit and he spent a lot of time answering and asking questions. I felt confident after speaking with him. Throughout the weekend, Chris communicated clearly through texting. He let me know when he arrived and left which was helpful. He also sent photos and updates of both my cats. My boy cat has occasional anxiety issues which cause UTI's. Andy had a flare up while I was away and Chris was very attentive to him and let me know how he was doing. Chris did not seem to mind taking extra care of him which I very much appreciate. Chris left my house clean and even washed the sheets and towels he used before leaving!
I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for. They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention. She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating. I highly recommend Julia and Chris.
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
Jinnie was an excellent house sitter for me and my cat Felix. Completely responsible and reliable and helpfully flexible. She was willing to work with me as I dithered on whether I was actually going to go on my trip (which was dependent on good weather), and when I finally decided on making my trip one day shorter. House was clean and organized on my return, and, more importantly, my cat was calm and relaxed on my return. I would happily have Jinnie come sit for me and Felix again.
Pennee and Bill were the BEST pet sitters and guests ever! I really wanted them to stay forever ! Our cat, Miss Kitty bonded so much to them, that she really wasn’t that happy to see me when I got home .Our cat is a finicky eater and they tried all different types of food and treats for her. They sent me regular photos of miss kitty and I knew everything was great when most of the pics had miss kitty on their lap. Our cat doesn’t take to many people but she immediately fell in love with them. Pennee sent us our mail and prescription meds on a regular basis , and went out of her way to take care of any issues . They fell in love with the neighbors and community and just made our lives so easy . We experienced the Covid 19 virus outbreak quarantine during this time and Pennee and Bill agreed to stay a month longer at our home . They were extremely flexible with their travel plans so that everyone would be safe. Upon our arrival home, we were greeted with a bouquet of flowers , beautiful hanging basket of flowers for outdoors and a beautiful bottle of wine . And our house had never been cleaner ! Bill and Pennee are a pet owners dream couple !I felt extremely lucky to have found such a great petsitter and new friend . We will be visiting each other in the future .
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $25 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
My cat boy in not an easy guy to love, but he was very much at ease with Bob. I have taken my boy to several kennels but because of the hoarding situation he came from, he's totally stressed by other cats. I returned from a six day trip away, and my cat was so happy to have been in his own home. Happy to see me, but not a basket case like he's been after some kennel visits. Bob is the best.
I thought I wrote one of these, but I'll gladly do it again... Bob has been watching our pets for about six years or so. First our cat, and most recently our new dog. Not only does he do a fantastic job, he's reliable, trustworthy, and kind. We couldn't ask for anyone better to watch our pets. Being in the military, I am away a lot. Bob has never let us down... We were on vacation and had to extend it due to a family emergency; Bob was there for us. I will never let anyone else have keys to my home or take care of my animals so long as Bob is around. Fantastic! Highly recommend.
Bob and his wife took wonderful care of our dog 🐶 Tito for two half days. This was first time Tito gone to daycare and he loved it. They went to Island View Beach with 5 other doggies. Tito came home exhausted from all the fun he had. Thnaks again Bob, we will definitely be back woof woof …
Where to start?! Our 2 year old pup has been going on walks with Amy for about 6 months now. Amy has been so professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. If we need a referral for anything dog-related she knows her stuff. Also, our pup had some anxiety issues and they were quickly resolved with these magical trips with Amy. He greets her with a smile all the time. Amy's walks have helped improve his quality of life which is priceless. He is just a happy pup. We are so thankful we found her!
Amy has helped us immensely over the last couple of years, whenever we have not been able to provide daily adventures our border collie ourselves. He absolutely loves her and gets so excited when he hears her name. She has gone above and beyond to make sure he has a great time and make our lives easy. She has amazing and stable rates, communicates well, and most importantly always ensures our pup is safe and cared for, and he comes home tired and surprisingly clean for a dog frolicking around the forest/beach/fields 😂 I recommend Amy and her team to anyone in the westshore who is looking for a trustworthy, friendly, caring person to take your dog on off leash adventures or for overnight dog boarding.
Pacific Dogwood Dog walking is amazing! My pup Winnie has been a part of the pack for four months and I honestly can’t say enough good things about Amy and her staff. Winnie loves going on adventure walks with her new dog friends, and I especially love how tired she is afterwards. The amazing photos that Amy and her awesome staff take on the walks are a testament of just how much fun the dogs are having and also demonstrates how much control she has of the pack, it’s truly incredible. She treats every dog with love and kindness as if they were her own. I am completely worry free about leaving my dog in Amy’s care and highly recommend this service.
Amy and her crew are fantastic. Our puppy is high energy and his pack hikes are really helping us with his energy levels! He loves Amy so much he leaps into her arms when she arrives to get him. We've left him while we are away as well with both Amy & Chantelle and have been so pleased. Our minds are at ease knowing he is happy and safe and having so much fun with all the other dogs.
We’ve been using Pacific Dogwood Dogs since our pup was old enough to go on group walks and we’re so happy to have found them! Amy & her team offer exceptional service, our dog is SO happy to go out on his adventures with them! I especially love the photos that Amy posts of their adventures! Can’t recommend them enough!
Amy is beyond amazing! She is so kind, gentle, and is compassionate with every dog she has under her care! We love having her as our leader for Panda Bear. We love what she does with the dogs, taking them on daily adventures. Panda always comes home happy and tuckered! We love hearing updates and photo updates of her hikes! We always look forward to the hikes! Amy is so communicative, compassion and all around amazing! We highly recommend Amy at Pacific Dogwood Dogs!!! ☺️
Any is brilliant. We are so happy to have found her after a very scary incident happened with another dog walker. She approached our situation with great patience and understanding - knowing that our dog Leroy might be scared of the whole pack walk experience. Amy has made Leroy fearless again after having many positive experiences with her. She’s not only great with the dogs but her communication, work ethic and positivity make her such a great fit for us. Leroy LOVES her. We are so grateful we have someone we trust with our dog. We couldn’t recommend her company enough.
We have been using pacficdogwood for a year now. Amy and her team are wonderful, caring, loving, professional and attentive. Our dog Penny started going out for hikes with Amy at 1 years old it’s been a blessing in her overall training. Our dog is now a well socialized dog with excellent dog manners. Which I think Amy and her team helped make her a well rounded dog. I always receive a text msg when penny is going to be picked up and when she’s coming back home. Also at the end of the day we get photos of her out with her dog friend's having the best time ever. I always recommend Amy and her team to anyone who as a dog because we just love her services so much! Thank you Amy for being the BEST 😊
Happy. Happy. Happy. Dogs love it here and we love leaving Koko with Amy and her crew for a day, a week or a month. Koko has such a fun, healthy, learning experience with "the pack" I feel guilty when her time is up and she has to come home. Amy is the best, she is a great communicator and pays attention to details. Daily photos and videos keep us in the loop when we're away. Do yourself and your dog a favour.
Amy is absolutely amazing! She has taken my pup Frankie on many adventures and sends me photos and updates when I'm missing her. She's one of the only people I trust to look after her when I'm gone. As soon as Frankie sees Amy she lights up with overwhelming happiness. I always know she's in good hands. Very, very highly recommended!
Robyn has been the most lovely cat sitter! When she wasn’t available the first time I reached out, she quickly recommended other services that were also great. She has been conscientious and loving with our cat, sending photos and staying in close communication. And of course, she thinks our cat is the cutest ;) We will miss her help when we move. I highly recommend Island Time!
Wow!! What can we say? 🐾 🥳 Knowing your dog and cat are in SUCH good hands, especially with a new auntie they ADORE is such a relief. 🤗 We have a rescue doggo with a history, who needs important meds twice a day. Ruthie 🐕 is so sweet, but can be a bit of a handful. She has a bit of old fear/anxiety and is *waves hand* at new people, but once you're in the Ruthie Club, you're in there! You get such a goofy, fun girl. We had a big two-week trip planned, and we hadn't spent a night away from Ruthie in the 3y she'd been with us and now with the new meds... 🥺 We found Robyn (and Marina) to house/pet sit Ruthie and our orange cat Hamish 🐈 (who has his own anxieties, often pulling his hair out when he thinks somebody is missing). You probably know that feeling of looking forward to being away, but worrying sick that the furkids are going to be okay. Sometimes still worrying when you are on the trip! 😮💨 We had none of that worry!! We did a couple meet-and-greet test walks and an overnight with "Auntie Robyn", and they hit it off great! In the Ruthie Club straight away. And for us, we just immediately got the sense of care and capability from Robyn. The feeling that she can handle this, she knows what to do if something comes up, and they're going to have a great time together. 🤗 You can tell yourself this all day, but unless you feel it, that background worry won't go away, even after you go away on your trip. Well we felt it right away! This is the first trip we did where we didn't have that background worry (our previous dog was much easier but we still felt it when we went away). Ruthie had SUCH an amazing time, and everything from the meds to the cuddling in beds went perfectly!! We got updates of the gang doing all kinds of adventures, snuggling, palling around with other dogs. We kept saying it was Summer Camp for Ruthie, and she didn't have time to miss us! Even Hamish had a great time! (Didn't pull out any belly hair!!) We are honestly justifying future travel, just so Ruthie can get more time with her Auntie Robyn (and Auntie Marina)! 🤣
Robyn is an incredible human who has taken the best care of our challenging dog, Ruby. She has bonded with our sweet Ruby quite quickly, and Ruby loves spending time with Robyn every week. Robyn's dedication to understanding dogs, their body language, behaviours, and quirks, is truly impressive. She works diligently to connect with them and their owners, ensuring she provides the highest quality care. Ruby and I give her five stars, and we are more than willing to share her :) (Seriously, she is fantastic; hire her!).
We are so glad we found Robyn. She has watched our dog (Jindo mix) for two separate week long trips, and it has gone great. Her space is clean, she has a kind and caring approach and communicates regularly with pics and messages. She has a great yard and took our pup on lots of walks. We had a small issue come up with our dog during our last trip and she handled things thoughtfully and we didn’t have to stress knowing our dog was in good hands. Would highly recommend!
Our family has a Zoo. One dog, 3 cats (2 special needs) and 3 reptiles. Robyn took on this unique situation with Care and Compassion. She sent daily texts and videos of the animals’ adventures with her and even drove one fragile cat for a vet follow-up. We felt so relieved that Robyn was at our home while we were enjoying a family vacation. Thank you for your kindness Robyn and we highly recommend You to other families with furry and cold blooded critters :)
Robyn has been walking our dog, who has some reactivity issues, and I'm so glad I found Robyn because I could trust her to continue her training routine using training methods I approved of. Robyn bonded with my dog right away and my dog was so excited to go on walks with her. This really took a huge weight off my shoulders. Robyn is very professional and always came on time and sent pictures and updates after every walk. Unfortunately we are moving, otherwise we would continue to use her services. She is great, we will miss her!
We can not say enough good things about Robyn and her pet care services. We were visiting the area for an event and needed someone to look after our dog, Sam. Within a short time, we could tell that Robyn was a perfect choice to watch over Sam and make him feel at home while we were away. I would highly recommend Robyn to anyone looking for someone to take care of their furry family member - we wished we lived closer by so that we could use her services more frequently. She is a sure bet for those who are local or coming in from out of town. Five plus stars for Robyn and Island Time Pet Care!
Robyn has cared for Nano several times, including both overnights and shorter visits. Robyn's love of and engagement with animals is apparent every time she comes over, she so quickly attends to our dog's enthusiasm and love of chasing ball! We receive regular updates about how Nano is doing, including great photos. Nano loves Robyn, and we never have to worry about him when he's in Robyn's care. I actually think Nano's a bit disappointed when we come home and his visit with Robyn is over!
Wow! What fantastic and professional pet care by Robyn. This was our first time looking for professional pet sitting (two visits a day) for our cats and were a little nervous about having a stranger in our home but as soon as we met Robyn we felt totally at ease. She got all the important info from us about our cats and was so good with them during the meet and greet. We loved getting daily pictures and were so pleased to see our shy cats come out of their shells when Robyn was playing with them. Robyn’s communication, professionalism, and organization was great. Such a fantastic experience and we will 100% be booking Robyn again for cat sitting. Thank you!
Whenever we are traveling we ask Robyn to walk our two chocolate labs. She is wonderful with them (they both adore her). My one dog can be reactive with new dogs and Robyn is really good at managing my dog. I'd highly recommend her services to anyone who loves their dogs. Robyn is the best!
K9SK8 has provided all our dogs a safe and fun daycare experience. For a multi-dog household, with big, med, small, tiny dogs they all have fun days. A special place with excellent staff who keep the small dogs and bigger rowdy dogs. It's well worth it!!
We started bringing our dog George here when he was 11 months old. It was highly recommended to us by a few people we know from our neighborhood. My dog gets so excited to go there. And he has so much fun! When he gets home, he is very tired and always has a great night of sleep. The staff there will often post videos and pictures of play time on their Facebook page. They even throw doggy birthday parties, and we decided to throw one for my pup's first birthday. They made him cupcakes and cookies and took amazing pictures that we were able to share with our family and friends. They do not crate dogs (unless needed) so you can be sure your dog will have an amazing time and will always be excited to go there.
Took my dog to get groomed here, was told it would take 2 hours. I returned to pick my dog up and was told he was still drying. I waited a half hour (at which time I told them it’s ok if he still wet, but I had to take him home because I had to go to work) and after nearly 3 hours was told his grooming was incomplete. I arranged with Gabriela for him to come in 2 days later. She did not communicate how long the second appointment would take so I had to get my partner to pick up my dog from the second appointment. She handed the dog over with only his harness (not on properly). She sent a text the following day saying his leash was still there. Not sure why she didn’t give us all of his belongings. 3 separate trips for one mediocre grooming appointment with lots of poor communication. I will not be using this service again. However, while I was waiting I saw lots of happy dogs and kind daycare workers, so that side of things seems great.
K9 SK8 Park has a calm and clean environment with happy and polite staff who respond to customers promptly. I am very satisfied with their work with the dogs.
My puppies always come home tuckered out after day care and that's saying something because they're 2 psycho Aussies. The staff are super friendly and make a point of knowing which human goes with which dog so they can give you updates when you pick them up. The affordable pricing and the ability to drop your pups off from an hour to a full day is awesome!
Have used in the past and always happy! This time I brought two new dogs who can be nervous/skittish. Both dogs behaved wonderfully, so calm and relaxed. They came for a wash and groom and these dogs have never looked so good, clean and soooo soft. I can't stop petting them!! LOL Highly recommend!!
I brought my 3 month old puppy here and was so pleased with the warm & friendly staff. Our dog seems so happy everytime we go and completely worn out with all the play time and socializing. Highly recommended!!
Jess takes the time to dremel my pups nails rather than trim since she tolerates it better. Shes also quite knowledgeable about her work and will explain things to you about your dog and their session. Paulina is wonderful too, and my pup looks for her when I take her for a daycare visit
Bring my dog here on occasion. Staff is great and friendly, the dogs have lots of room to run around as it's practically a warehouse sized room. The best part is that they do hourly, so we can drop her off for 2-3 hours while we do errands in the summer heat.
kind and attentive staff! they gave me a little tour when i first signed my puppy up and it helped ease my anxiety of leaving him with strangers. i will continue using K9 Sk8 park! Their hours are convenient and its based on drop in. Oakley comes home happy and exhausted every time!
Heather set up Kaitlyn to be my petsitter at my condo for my big reactive boy Henrod II, and to take care of my senior grumpy 16 year old cat General Bonkers, and Kaitlyn did wonderful. They both take medication, and Henrod has a very strict routine for dealing with his reactivity. Kaitlyn also didn't leave my place a mess and I felt like it was in good hands. And Kaitlyn would send me picture text updates of my critters while I was away. I recommend Tailz to Trailz for your petsitting and dogwalking needs!
Our pup absolutely loves Heather he looks out the window and waits for her. I highly recommend and have full trust in her with our families fur baby.
We are so grateful to have been recommended Heather and her team! She was willing to take on my puppy, gradually introducing him to the pack and keeping him on leash until he’s sufficiently trained to be off leash. She works on his training, tires him out and helps with socialization. My older dog now also tags along on hikes and her favourite days are hike days
Heather is phenomenal with my 1 year old pup Oliver! She is very personable and I always enjoy a quick chat when she’s picking him up or dropping him off. She is flexible and always has the dogs best interest in mind. :)
Heather and her crew are AMAZING. they are reliable, they treat our dog with love, and they get our pup good and tired with hikes. We've been with Heather since our pup was 4 months old, and she's become basically one of my dog's favourite people ❤❤ could not recommend this group enough!!
My dog has been going on weekly hikes forever with Tailz to Trailz. Heather and her team are responsible and flexible; my dog always comes home happy and exhausted. I have had nothing but great communication and experiences with Heather, she has always been prompt to respond if I have any questions. You can tell that her heart is in what she does!
Hope(my Vizsla dog) has been hiking with Heather for almost 3 years now! Shes always been very flexible and always there if I’m needing extra walks in! Hope is always tired and happy when she comes home! Thank you so much for your services 🐕☺️ …
Heather and Josh are the best with my Pug, Bruce. He loves his hikes three times a week and always comes home so happy. Then, he's out. I also appreciate the pictures from the hikes. It's nice to see him out there while I'm at work. I trust Heather and Josh with Bruce.
I have two corgi's that were used to the freedom of country living and so when we moved to an apartment in Victoria, I was in need of a dog walker. Heather was recommended to me by a co-worker. Her sub-contractor walks the corgi's (due to my location in the city) but the whole experience dealing with Tailz to Trailz has been wonderful. I highly recommend Heather and her support staff. Very accommodating, reliable and great with the animals. 5 ✨!
Heather is the best with animals! My dogs love her. I would recommend Tailz to Trails to anyone who needs their fur babies taken care of!
Carlos just got home from a weekend at Pawsh. The first couple of times he was nervous he can be a shy dog. We knew he was in good hands as our beloved Presley loved Pawsh. This weekend Carlos went right up to the door and wanted in. We could go away and feel relaxed. Carlos has been sleeping since he got home. All the activity and social time has tired him out. Thank you Lisa and team.
I literally could not pick a better place to bring your dog in the Victoria area. I moved here from Ontario in 2021 and since an introduction they have loved Alina as one of their own. They have taken her last minute through family emergencies and adore her during her weekly daycare other than that. I could not speak more highly of this place. They treat your dog like family.
Lisa and her team of animal caregivers are incredible. A Pawsh Oasis is the only other place our wacky cat, Cheetah, feels safe and happy. It’s truly an oasis for the animals and our family knows he will be cared for like he’s their own. Highly recommend this place and business.
Rufus just spent 3 weeks at Pawsh. He had a great time! He loves to go there for daycare/boarding and it’s easy to leave him knowing that he’s excited to go. Thanks so much to all of you for your kind and loving care of our boy:)
I’ve been taking my dogs to Pawsh for daycare for the last two years and I love it! The hours are very accommodating and my dogs always come home exhausted from a good days play. The staff are very attentive to my dogs needs; my younger pup is shy around people but sure loves the staff there, especially the walk lady 😉 Pawsh has been great for getting her comfortable around new people and dogs. Our older dog doesn’t need to go to daycare anymore but we send him as a treat. We’ll be lifelong customers ❤️ Here’s a photo of Quinn on one of her daily pack walks at Pawsh.
Our dog has been going to Pawsh for over a year now. She loves to be outdoors and they have the perfect setup for that. She’s always excited to go and loves her cuddles at drop off. She comes home tired, but peaceful. All staff care for our girl like she’s their own and I know she’s safe/having fun when she visits for daycare/boarding.
I boarded my cat Charlie with them for 3 weeks and it was a good experience for him and I. Charlie is a large breed cat and, since they accommodate the cats in furnished 'suites' and don't use kennels or cat condos, he had room to move and a comfy window perch to watch the birds from. I received quick replies when I checked in on him during my travels AND they sent me multiple photos each time. I picked up a slightly grumpy (LoL) but well cared for cat who settled back into his home routine extremely quickly. Thanks to the team - I would trust you with Charlie anytime!
My Pup loves Pawsh Oasis! She runs into the building and doesn’t look back. Makes me feel good when I leave her there. It’s so warm and cozy inside and dogs are allowed to roam like home. I know Molly will be well looked after ❤️
My dogs run inside and are always so tired afterwards which is a great sign. The daycare and boarding are both great options, and they are very accommodating with scheduling. Highly recommend 😊! …
After a building fire in our home PawshOasis stepped right up making room for our cat Tuna. We had no where for her to live til we sorted out what to do. Not only did they step up for us but PAWSH is a palace made with love. It’s an Amazing place for your pet to stay while you are out of town etc. Not a worry in the world.
My Christmas and I have known Denise before she started Denise’s Doggy Den.The place she was working for wouldn’t look after him because of his barking , he loved to talk. Denise offered to look after him at her while my wife and I went away, I was so grateful . That was about ten years ago and we let her look after Christmas many times until he left us last Sept.2023 He loved being left and he loved coming home. I am so happy for her and her successful business.
Denise is professional, reliable, and trustworthy. My dogs simply love to see her. She always makes sure the dogs are safe during the walks. For example If it is warm she takes extra water and finds coolers areas to walk. She avoids walking on hot asphalt. And she always checks them over for spurs and ticks when she returns. I don’t know what we would do without her! Thank you for your amazing service and I appreciate I can leave and know my pups are taken well care of!
Denise is the best! I only leave my two toy aussies with her when I go away. I don’t even ask family. It’s truly evident that she cares for my dogs like they are hers. She takes on the responsibility with joy and passion. I am very grateful for your service.
We have left our fur baby several times for extended holidays (10 days +) and we have always been so pleased with Denise’s care. We get photo and text updates. Cairo loves his time socializing and hanging out with his pals. We love knowing he’s in a small boarding group and has walks and free range of the house… just like being home!
Denise is reliable and takes care of my dogs like they're her own. Reasonable rates to walk, feed and love on them when I can't get home during the workday. I can trust her to respect my belongings and she never leaves my home unlocked. My dogs are a handful and she deals with their high energy behaviour very well. She's also been an amazing cat sitter, totally trust my cat with her.
In the 9 years I've had my little Schnauzer I've only left her a couple of times and always with a relative. Then I met Denise walking two little dogs in the forest and found out she didn't own them she was hired to walk them....but also noticed she walked them every day faithfully as I did mine. Dog conversation led to being given a card for Denise's Doggy Den even though I was sure I wouldn't need her services. About a year later I was about to have a 3-day getaway, and rather than go to a relative who was not healthy at the time I called Denise. Best decision ever! My dog loved being there with other doggy friends and a back yard and of course most of all Denise. Just got back from a 10 day trip and again, could not be happier with Denise's Doggy Den.
My friend introduced me to Denise and I was so happy she did! Denise provides top notch care to Daisy and I am so confident to leave her there. Her house and secure yard are a dog's dream. She truly loves her visitors and has high professional standards. Thanks Denise and hubby for providing a happy place for her.
Denise is amazing! We moved to the area a couple of years ago and are so happy to find her. We travel a few times of year and Denise is very professional and really cares for Bruno - he loves her. I always have fur baby guilty leaving Bruno but it makes me feel so much better knowing that she is taking such good care of him!
Thank you Denise for taking such good care of Myka and Oliver! Your love and attention to detail was greatly appreciated by all, but more importantly by our fur babies. Thanks for your flexibility with our last minute trips to the Mainland! The pups miss you already!
Denise is excellent. We have entrusted her with the care of our Westie Hamish for the last 3 years. He is always very well taken care of. We always feel guilty he can’t come on our trips but when we get the Facebook pictures of him with Denise we know he’s having a great time. Highly recommend Denise!!
Absolutely love Sniffing Daisies! Their service has been incredible for our Labrador-Poodle mix, who is very social and loves playing with other dogs. It’s the perfect outlet for him to burn off energy and enjoy time with his furry friends. Sniffing Daisies has also been a game-changer for our family’s rescue dog. Before finding them, she was terrified of other dogs, making walks and socialization a real challenge. We thought she was reactive and worried she might never be comfortable around other dogs. But within just one week at Sniffing Daisies, she was joining group walks with up to 10 other dogs! It’s been truly heartwarming to watch her transformation. We deeply appreciate the care, time, and effort the team puts into ensuring every dog is well looked after. They provide off-leash time in a private, fenced park, equipped with trackers for peace of mind. We love the photo updates of the dogs playing in the forest (usually covered in mud!)—and one of our favorite perks is that they always come home clean, dry, and completely tuckered out. For our big dogs, who typically need multiple walks a day, Sniffing Daisies has been exactly what we were looking for. We cannot recommend them enough!
The owner, Natalie, is so passionate, and cares about all the pups like they are her own. She has put so much effort into our insanely high energy dog, and we can see the results, even at home! His recall is almost 90% (which is way better than 0%). She is also flexible to work with my schedule. 👍🏼Also you get a few pictures at the end of each walk! And it is always good to see how happy our pup is! 💙
We have used a few different dog walkers over the past couple of years as we have moved a few times. Natalie at Sniffing Daisies has been the BEST! Our dog absolutely loves her and waits by the door when told she is on her way. We also receive pictures and look forward to the weekly Instagram posts. Our dog always has the biggest smile and comes home ready to relax after his weekly adventure! Highly recommend Sniffing Daisies!
Can't say enough good things! So friendly, seriously in love with our dog and patient with us with even some last minute schedule changes. I couldn't have a dog and have my busy healthcare work schedule without her. My fluff comes back tired, happy and always looks forward to the next hike. Booking is so easy, and the fact they pick up and drop off the dogs is key. Highly recommend!
Natalie is incredible to work with and is so accommodating! She works tirelessly to meet her client’s needs and goes above and beyond to help! I’m a nurse and my husband is a paramedic, we often have to pick up last minute shifts, Natalie has always done her best to squeeze our puppy in! Our puppy looks forward to her walks and gets excited as soon as she sees Natalie! I couldn’t recommend her enough! We absolutely love Natalie 💜
Our dog has been loving his group hikes with Natalie since he was a puppy! He always comes home happy and tired. Natalie goes above and beyond to let us know that our dog is safe and having a good time by sending photos and updates about how the hike went. She has been doing a great job at training recall with our dog. Would 100% recommend her services to every dog owner!
Even though my dog (Navi) has only been on a few hikes im so happy with this service! Owner has been very accommodating and has shown my dog so much love, I get picture updates and the app is so nice to have for quick communication/questions. Been suggesting all her doggie friend’s owners to try this company. The dogs have GPS trackers on during the hikes which makes me feel at ease. Would definitely recommend :)
I cannot put into words how grateful we are to have Natalie in our life. I could throw around words like professional, reliable and trustworthy, but that doesn't really get to the point. She is so good and patient with dogs, even tiny idiots like our puppy who she walks 5 days a week. I trust her absolutely, both with the care of my aforementioned tiny idiot, and with entering my house when I'm not there. I honestly don't know what we would do without her.
Natalie’s adventure hikes for dogs are down right fantastic! Our Ozzy has been enjoying them for more than a year now and he is always pooped out when he comes home. She cares about your dog like it’s her own, what more could you ask for. Sniffing Daisies is the best !
Natalie is an absolute gem! Our shy Mexican rescue feels right at home with the Sniffing Daisies crew. It's a relief to know that our little bean is having lots of fun with an accredited force-free trainer when we aren't around to walk her ourselves!
Woofability is the best dog daycare/boarding facility we have ever come across and our dog has been to many! Our dog Leo has stayed for longer boards, short ones, and regular daycare visits. He always comes back happy and well cared for. Woofability has a unique approach to daycare that really has what’s most beneficial for the dogs in mind. We love hearing about all the agility, training, and fun games that our dog has been up to. We continue to send our dog to Woofability and can relax knowing he is receiving the best care. When he goes for boarding I joke that he is going on an all inclusive vacation.
My dogs Roo and Meara absolutely love Woofability! In fact, I think it’s their favorite place in the world. Every time they send me pictures, my dogs are smiling and loving life! Roo is a very sensitive and shy dog but seems to love everyone there. I appreciate how patient they are with the dogs’ little quirks. The enrichment academy truly keeps their minds active and that’s the best way to tire them out. The nature hikes look so fun, a muddy dog is a happy dog! I appreciate April & Tim and their team so much, I am confident my girls are being well loved and taken care of at Woofability!
Gigi has been going to Woofability for several years now and she is always happy to go. I feel completely relaxed knowing she is in good hands and will be safe and happy. She loves the dog and human friends she has made there.
Fantastic daycare, hike and boarding services. The enrichment activities are wonderful and our boys love them. They are more excited to get picked up for a hike than they are to come home and they love a boarding stay with cuddles in the house with April and Tim. Highly recommend.
I am so happy we found Woofability! Both our boys absolutely love going there. The enrichment approach is amazing and my dogs thrive on it! They love the hikes too and I feel so much safer with them on the private property for this. My younger pup needed some extra attention for over-excitability and jumping. We did the board and train and it was the absolute best thing we could have done. The reinforcement at weekly daycare of that training is going a very long way. We have also boarded there and honestly its the best, we can leave them in total comfort knowing they are being extremely well taken care of, stimulated and loved the whole time. April and Tim clearly have a passion for what they do and they have hired and retained the most incredible staff. Its so awesome when they are as excited to see my dogs as I am when I pick them up <3
I seriously couldn't be happier with the care, attention, and expertise that Woofability has brought to training my dear doggo to be my service dog. Carolyn, our trainer, is beyond friendly and knowledgeable. She adjusts on the fly and always has my doggo's best interests in mind. I highly, highly recommend Woofability for any dog training/behavioral needs, whether service dog related or not!
Extremely caring & knowledgeable staff. Our dog comes home tired from learning & playing all day. It is nice to drop your dog off for the day or boarding and not worry at all while you’re away. It is like a second home & he loves it! The daily update with photos is also HUGE, I love seeing how much fun he is having:)
We've been taking our poodle there once a week since she was a puppy. Their combination of enrichment training and fun play is exactly what our high energy dog needs. April and Tim are wonderful owners and their staff are always great. We've also done multiple training classes with April and learned useful training trips over the years. Our poodle has boarded there as well and we always know she's in good hands.
Shanti has been playing & Boarding with Woofability for 7 years. Serious work began for Shanti & I . ..We started Service Dog Training. Shanti choose to stay over for 2 weeks for board and train. He came home to me with more obedience and clarity for Me what I needed to continue our fantastic journey together. This was overwhelming with a lot of questions I had. I choose Woofability for Service dog training, they offered a whole range of training options and a variety of methods for Shanti and I to learn. I knew that Shanti was being Trained. I Trusted April and Team to be training Shanti on a consistent basis while he was on his 2 week train & board process. April & Tim had been personally thru the BC Service Dog Training for themselves they have 2 service dogs. They knew the process and were able to answer the many questions I had. The educated and practised training we received was outstanding!!!!**** the staff rock and love my little Shanti. The extra class for training ( going into busy public places, grocery stores , elevator etc training ) to integrate Shanti & I into the community with extra learning practices is worth the cost and practice. This gave US more peace of mind and an emotionally peacefully place. Woofability offers to go to the test with you and your dog. They will go the extra special mile to support the client and dog. They follow thru with their words and commitment. **** Yes, we passed our BC Service Dog Assessment. !!!!***. Hugs & Shanti Kisses of course to April, Tim
I’ve been taking my Black Lab to Woofability for over 2 years for Enrichment daycare and boarding. This is the kind of business when they haven’t seen her in a while will notice she got a new collar when they see her. If she has any issues, they keep an eye on her and update me when I come to pick her up. I was initially worried to leave my dog anywhere! But the outdoor secure facility sold me. They are also prompt at returning emails and I’ve had nothing but professional service and communication from them. The dog loves her “me” days and perks right up as soon as we turn onto Prospect Lake Road. Their classes are great too.
Truly loves taking care of my boys! No hesitation in leaving if I know Amy is there.
I recently had the pleasure of using Your Human Pet Services for my cat, and I couldn’t be happier! From the initial meet-and-greet, it was clear that Cam genuinely cares about animals and made me feel at ease leaving. During my time away, Cam provided regular updates and photos, which reassured me that my cat was well cared for. Our cat is a trouble maker and Cam went the extra mile to make sure our cat and house were safe and clean. I highly recommend Your Human Pet Services to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive cat sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out again for future needs!
Cam has been a friend of my former partner for 20 years so there was immediate trust when it came time to take care of our high needs MinPin and at-times "anxious of strangers" Chihuahua. He won both dogs over in no time, paid close attention to their habits and needs and built a routine that kept everybody happy! Both are rescue dogs, Jack is vision impaired and elderly at 16, Dude sometimes struggles to trust dark-haired men and is inconsistent with who passes as safe! Cameron created a structure for the boys that really worked, got them socialized along with other pups in pack walks and when we came home at night Jack was tuckered out from good exercise and was not nearly so needy! Cam also made sure our cat Bean's needs were taken care of too! He has a great scheduling system, offers a wide variety of services, is very reasonably priced and he's trustworthy - not just with my pets, but also with coming to our home when we're not there. I highly recommend his services especially if you have a special needs pup, he's really got a gift with them!
I can't express how highly I rate Cam and his amazing service! He treated my senior blind dog like a king and was always the high point of Jack's day! Cam never had an issue with my 'troubled chihuahua ' and always managed to get him out for exercise, something Im not always successful at! His after walk texts and pictures of my pups always made my afternoon, seeing them so happy. I have also used Cam for overnight sitting, lasting four days and I have never felt so secure leaving my home and loves in his capable hands! You will not regret hiring Cam for any of the services he offers. His professional attitude and attention to detail are refreshing and valuable in today's market and your pets will love you for it!
I met Cam awhile back as I to do pet sitting. We combine, share and refer each other for the best pet services possible. Cam has a calm way about him that keeps pets, and owners, comfortable with his care. It can be difficult to give someone trust with your pet friend, especially first time. But you can with Cam. I recommend Cam fully and I enjoy having him not only as a good friend, but valuable pet business owner/co worker. I trust him fully 🌻
Cam is so incredible with my girl Peaches who is a 9 month golden Labrador. He took her in at 5 months and she wiggles so hard when he comes to get her that I can tell her love for him is genuine. Peaches has separation anxiety and through his gentle guidance she has improved so much. He not only takes her for great walks and swims but also helps her get used to new places and things, the car and of course scary men with beards. Thanks to Cams help she is becoming a happy well socialized pup. Her on leash walking is improving as well thanks to Cam. Many people charge so much more for so much less. I feel incredibly lucky to have found Cam and I know Peaches feels the same.
Cam is a gem 💎 ! Sadie sits at the front window waiting for her Cam time, it’s really sweet how much she adores him. On top of the love Cam is incredibly knowledgeable and knows how to connect with your dog on the level they are comfortable on. You’re fur baby will come home we’ll walked and ready for a nap!! Oh and bonus is Cam in an incredible photographer~ He’s taken my favourite photos of Sadie ❤️
The Saturday pack walks are a time of both pet and human companionship; it is wonderful to be a part of a group of like minded people who support each other and benefit from one another's experiences. Kudos to Cam for arrasnging this for us all!!
My doggie walker uncle cam is the bomb! He always makes sure little yumby is well looked after,very exercised and all the dogs are grooving together! The walkies app is brilliant! I can see where they're walking and how many jobies she's done! I am very,very happy with unca cam,he loves my little pupper like she s his own! I can't say enough great things!
Highly impressed with Cameron's pet services! He goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of furry friends. Excellent care, attention to detail, and a genuine passion for animals. Can't recommend him enough! 🐾🐶🐱 #TopNotchPetServices …
We hired Your Human Pet Services to check on our cat while we were away for 3 weeks and are really happy with how it went. We will definitely use the service when we travel in the future. When we initially reached out we found the communication timely and professional. The meet and greet was easy to arrange and he made a good first impression. When we were away he came over to check on the cat, change the litter etc, and also picked up the mail and took out the trash. Our cat is typically shy and skittish but not in this case. She went to him for affection and played with him too. He sent updates with pictures that put our minds at ease. He went above and beyond when there was a power outage and our home alarm was going off, we contacted him and he went over first thing to take care of it. We were really impressed with the service and how our cat bonded with him. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for pet services and are telling everyone we know how well it went.
