Pet Sitters in Nanoose Bay

Vanissar

This was the second time Vanissar has looked after our home and elderly cat. If she was available every time we needed a sitter she would always be our first choice!

Ross & Rory

Last March Ross and Rory were all lined up to come and watch our home and our two pups. We had several applications to review and finally settled on Ross and Rory. After a lengthy telephone conversation I was confident things would be in wonderful hands. The communication leading up to the stay was excellent and the sitters arrived in Kelowna ahead of time to stay with friends. Very rapidly the covid 19 situation evolved and we decided to pull the plug on our vacation. I felt terrible that Ross and Rory had made the long trip to Kelowna and that we weren’t able to follow through with the plans. They were very gracious and of course understood. We look forward to the day we can travel and again and R and R will be the first ones we contact.

Jane & Neil

Jane and Neil were excellent house and pet sitters. They were pleasant, prompt and very courteous. Even though Jane had an excellent reason to cancel their stay, they came anyway which was so appreciated by us. They took wonderful care of Coco who enjoyed getting out to explore Powell River and the area everyday with this kind couple. Our house was immaculate when we returned and we would love to have them stay again anytime. Highly recommended.

Graham

Graham and Bernadette were amazing. This was our first time having people pet sit for us, and I have to say we were not as prepared as we should have been. Graham and Bernadette seemed to go with the flow. We were filling them with way too much information to absorb and I appreciate that they made the stay work. We were so happy with them! We would definitely be delighted to have them stay again.

Chris & Helen

Chris was thoroughly organized and dependable. He communicated with us regularly while we were away, reassuring us that our boys were doing fine. The occasional photos were greatly appreciated. Our old boy had a relatively minor medical issue while we were away, and Chris was efficient in the way that he dealt with it. The house and garden had obviously been well attended to. Most importantly our boys had been well cared for and were happy and healthy on our return.

Mitra & Mark

Mitra and Mark were dedicated to the well-being of our loving Poppy. Communication was ongoing with pictures and chats about how much they enjoyed being with her. They felt very comfortable in our home and left it spotless. We would invite them back in a heartbeat.

Megan

We had a great sit experience with Meghan. We didnt meet in personal but had great video calls in advance of the sit and plent up updating my pup while I was away. Totally self sufficient, reliable, communicated well her arrival and departure times etc. Place was clean and tidy on my return and my North was well cared for and had a great time with her. Would have Meghan back, and highly recommend

Calley

Calley was a great house sitter. She communicated and was reliable. She turned up on time and looked after our pets and home really well. She was polite, kind and offered to pick us up from the ferry which was lovely. We would highly recommend Calley!

Toni

Toni is a wonderful pet sitter. She visited our place twice in advance to meet pets and confirm suitability, dates and duties. She also sent us regular updates during the pet sit. Highly recommend Toni and hope she will consider returning to our home at another time.

Janine

I can’t say enough about Janine! I knew she was a perfect fit from the moment I spoke with her … her energy is super positive and happy and she asked great questions. She did a great job communicating when I was away and left my home spotless. I cannot recommend her enough, thank you for everything!

Les

He’s the one! When entrusting your house and pets to someone, you want integrity and maturity, both of which Les exudes. He is very organized and tidy, leaving our house and pets in great shape. He is very athletic and gave our dogs great exercise and lots of care. His calm demeanor gave us the confidence that he could handle any emergency while we were gone. A fascinating world traveler, Les is now our friend as well as a favorite dog sitter. We would give him an extra star if we could.

Janine

Janine s a lovely, kind and gentle person. Communication with her was excellent. She left the house in perfect order. She washed the linens and remade the guest bed which was appreciated as I had a friend returning with me. Most of all Red the cat was happy and content when I got home. I would have Janine back in a heart beat. She’s completely reliable and trustworthy.

Daniel

J'mari was a fantastic sitter. He came over for a meet and great before the sit which we greatly appreciated. He was communicative throughout his stay, and took great care of Winry and Nori. And the house was cleaner than when we left it! J'mari is welcome back anytime.

Everything was great with Teresa and her home. The location is very convenient and the house very comfortable.
Bagera and Lily are extremely cute, they have such unique personalities and they love to be cuddled. I recommend Teresa's listing without any doubt!

Philly

I was really looking forward to my sit with Sue.  He is completely loveable so much so he stuck to me like glue.  There very soon became a trusting bond between us.  He's so well trained definitely like clock work and he certainly let me know his needs.  Perfect.  We went on beautiful country park walks Sue loved meeting other dogs and just fine on the lead.  They are such a kind family and thanks so much for the experience.
