Responsible Pet Care Available (Qualicum Beach to Fanny Bay)

I am a reliable, trustworthy, non-smoking person experienced in Pet/House Sits and Drop-Ins. The majority of my pet care involves ONE family at a time to allow personalized care and activities for your pets.

Your pets' safety, health and happiness are my prime concern while they are in my care.

I have a small, very sociable non-shedding dog. Together, we enjoy the company of other pets. I provide several walks and outings to a number of safe, local trails. Many of these are open to off-leash for pets who have good recall and are used to that freedom.

I am Dog-Safe II Certified and Pet First-Aid trained.

Planning ahead, by finding a Pet Sitter you trust and your pets love, saves you time when the pressures of life step in.

Many people added a new furry friend to their household, while confined to home during the past months, thinking they would have quality time to spend with them. Other families have had the opportunity to spend a lot more time with pets who were already members of their family. And those pets have learned to count on & appreciate the extra attention you have provided. They, too, will miss that attention, when commitments pull you away from home for longer hours once again.

How are those changes going to affect your pet's daily routine?

My Pet Services, (Reviewed Below), could assist you, creating a bridge and smooth transition, to meet your four legged member's needs, while keeping them safe and happy.

Please review your family's upcoming schedules where your pets can not be with you. Eg. Work related commitments, (incl Shift workers), increased Social Events, Medical Appts, BusinessTravel or Upcoming Holidays ... any schedule where you will be away longer than you are comfortable leaving your pets on their own.

After reviewing the Pet Services I offer, feel free to contact me to discuss your families needs. It would be my pleasure to help you and your pets.

Your pet(s) are welcome to stay in my home, where they will be treated as family and have full access to my home. I do not crate your pets unless you specifically request it.
Long or Short stays welcome.

Pick-Up at your home and/or Drop-Off upon your return are included for Overnight Sits. Transportation to the Airport or Ferry for yourself can be arranged if needed.

***Your Home Pet & House Sits:
If you prefer, your pets can stay in their familiar environment in your home, when you arrange for me to stay there with them. I aim to maintain their regular routine. My presence keeps your house insurance valid, and deters break-ins. Along with caring for your pets, I will pick up mail, water plants, and handle garbage/recycling. Flexibility, on my part, to adapt to your personal requirements for your home and pets' care, helps to ensure your pets are safe and happy, giving you peace of mind while you are away.

***A Pet Sit in Your Home requires that my dog would also be welcome. This form of pet care would be subject to my previously arranged commitments during the dates you require.

***In Your Home Pet Sits are available IF you live within the areas from Dashwood, north including Qualicum Bay, (including from the Inland Hwy on the water side of Horne Lake Road area), Qualicum Bay, Bowser/Deep Bay to Fanny Bay/Ships Point areas.

For any of my pet care options, I encourage you to discuss your particular requirements with me completely. This will ensure that the care I provide is adapted to the best interests of your furry friends and your own specific needs, providing you peace of mind during your absence.

Medications can be given, provided written instructions are left.

Meet 'N Greet, in advance of your required dates, is necessary to determine compatibility. This will be arranged, free of charge, at our mutual convenience.
