About Lizzy

Hi! 

We are Lizzy and Harvey! We recently moved to Vancouver from Australia and are really missing our family dog. Because we don't have the means to get a dog of our own, we are hoping you would share the love for your dog with us! We both have had dogs all our lives and know our way around them. 

About us: Lizzy is 29 years old, born in the Netherlands and has a job as a scientist in a cancer research lab. Harvey is 27 years old, born and raised an Aussie, and works as an environmental consultant who is currently unemployed. We recently got engaged!

Lizzy works 9-5 Monday to Friday in a laboratory. Harvey is currently unemployed and can spend as much time at home as necessary. We love dogs, and will look to take them everywhere we go. The only exception would be for ~20-minute grocery runs. 

We live in a spacious 1 bedroom apartment in Mt Pleasant by ourselves (no other pets). It has a large bedroom and living room, and a bathroom with a bath. There is no backyard but there are lots of nearby parks. We do have a well-fenced spacious balcony. Depending on the size of the dog we may or may not permit access to the balcony during stays to ensure the safety of the pet. 

We would be able to host one dog at a time for larger breeds and up to two for smaller breeds (e.g. < 10 kgs each). We are flexible with availability, with both shorter and longer stays welcome. We are very available at the moment. We are comfortable having guest dogs sleep in either our living room or our bedroom, depending on owner and dog preferences. On the weekends we would look to take dogs anywhere we go, for walks and adventures. During the week, my partner is available to be with dogs at all times (with 20 min grocery runs being the only exception). And we would both be available to spend time with the dogs in the early mornings and evenings.

We will provide up to three walks a day, depending on the breed and fitness requirements. Walk durations will be up to 40 minutes each, again dependent on the breed and owner preferences. Dogs can also be taken outside to do their business more frequently if required (e.g. for younger and older dogs). During the day, dogs will be accompanied at all times by Harvey. 

We are able to bathe and brush dogs in our bath (brush and dog shampoo/conditioner would need to be supplied). We are also able to administer oral medications if necessary.

Please consider us for your next trip so we can spoil your dog with lots of love!

Dog Boarding
Kaman, 2024-09-02

We recently had the pleasure of leaving our beloved dog in the care of Harvey and Lizzy, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the experience. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to ensure our dog felt comfortable, happy, and well-loved.

From the moment we met Harvey and Lizzy, it was clear that they have a genuine passion for animals. They took the time to get to know our dog's personality, routines, and specific needs, which instantly put us at ease. Their warm and friendly demeanor made it easy for us and our dog to feel right at home with them.

Throughout the stay, Harvey and Lizzy kept us updated with regular photos and videos, showing our dog enjoying playtime, walks, and even some cuddles. It was evident that our dog was having a fantastic time and was being showered with affection. These updates provided us with peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our time away without any worries.

What really impressed us was the level of care and attention to detail that Harvey and Lizzy provided. They provided plenty of exercise and cuddles, even indulging our dog's love for belly rubs. Our dog was well brushed and groomed when he came home. It was clear they treated our dog as if they were their own, and we truly appreciate the love and care they provided.

When we returned, our dog was happy, healthy, and clearly well taken care of. It was evident that Harvey and Lizzy had not only met our expectations but had exceeded them in every way. We are so grateful for their exceptional service and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of reliable and loving dogsitters.

Dog Boarding

We recently had the pleasure of using Lizzy and Harvey's Dog boarding service for our senior dog, Jordan, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the communication was nothing short of excellent.

Lizzy and Harvey kept us updated with regular photo updates of Jordan, which was incredibly reassuring and heartwarming. They cared about Jordan's well-being and made the effort to ensure he was comfortable and happy.

Their attention to detail and genuine affection for our senior pup made the whole experience stress-free. We felt confident leaving Jordan in their capable hands and would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

Thank you, Lizzy and Harvey for taking such great care of our beloved dog!
