When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Vancouver that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Vancouver to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Vancouver. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.  

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Vancouver. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Vancouver.

Trusted pet care from avid animal lover.
I grew up surrounded by animals, cats, ferret, guinea pigs, birds, rabbits, fish, newts. I had a dog in my 20s plus a Maine coon kitty, and a turtle! Now I have a beautiful bunny named Tiggy. 
I've volunteered at dog and cat sanctuaries local and abroad as well as an elephant sanctuary in Thailand. I've pet sat for many friends and their fur babies through the years. I've also been a trusted nanny to non-fur children for over 4 years. 
I also used work at City Dog Daycare for almost 2 years back in my twenties. 
People trust me with their lives and their homes. I'll love your pets like they're my own and ensure proper care is given. I can send you update photos on each visit so you can see how your little (or big) fur baby is doing. 
I have plenty experience caring for people's most precious beings ️

Thank you for considering me for your pets new friend. 

Please note; some available days depend on time of day care is needed. Please inform, upon inquiry, what times of day you are looking for care. Thank you! 

Greetings pet parents! My name is Montana and I'm a big pet person! 

I am very experienced with cats (I have 1 of my own currently but grew up with cats and dogs), experienced with dogs and interested in all other animals. I'm comfortable with reptiles and insects also.

I enjoy the jobs I get on Pawshake because meeting new animals and having the chance to get to know them is one of my passions. Each animal has a distinct personality and I relish the challenge of anticipating their needs and wants, and building a relationship with them. Earning the trust of an animal is so rewarding.

Home visits and dog walks are 30 minutes. I will feed and play with your pet, as well as clean any litter boxes. I am also able to water plants/feed fish/collect mail/take garbage and recycling out, if those are things that need doing when I visit your pet(s). I sometimes take house sit requests, and those services include me staying with your pet(s) at your home and taking care of plants, receiving packages, etc, on a more in depth basis. 

I work remotely from home 8-4 Monday-Friday but am otherwise very flexible with timing of visits! I can pop by over a lunch break and visit in the early mornings or evenings as well. 

I am up to date on my covid-19 vaccine boosters and take safety/hygiene very seriously.

Hi,
I've just moved to Vancouver from Brisbane Australia, and would love to look after your fur-babies! I am 24 years old, and a stand up comedian. I moved here to live with my sister, and am loving the beautiful scenery and nature surrounding Vancouver. My sister is a veterinary technician, so if there's any problems help is not far away. I spend a lot of my free time walking and exploring, so I thought why not do this and make a few furry friends along the way! I have a lot of experience with animals, having grown up in a house/zoo with at least half a dozen dogs, cats, fish, canaries, guniea pigs, at any given time. I have experience with big and small dogs, having grown up with three Irish Wolfhounds, a Great Dane, and a miniature dachshund. 
I am free for house sitting and dog walking, up to 5 walks a day! Can walk for up to two hours in your area. I can also administer medication as requested. I don't have a requirement for vaccinated pets. 
I work as a stand up comedian, so I am free for walks all day and afternoon, and house sitting for long periods at a time. I cannot offer 24/7 care, but gigs are only a few hours at the most. I will make sure the house is locked up and secure, and will be there to care for your pets all day and most of the evenings.
See you soon mates!

Loving and trustworthy pet walker!!
  
    Dog walking for small to midsized dogs of any age!
    House visits and feeding 
  


  I am a trustworthy Irish girly with a love for all animal life! 
  My fur baby Stella (mini schnauzer) lives in Ireland with my parents and I miss her dearly, we FaceTime every morning!! 
  I find peace in being with animals, they cure everything humans can't. 
  I am free most weekends, I cannot host animals in my own home but am very open to walking neighbourhood pets.

I don't have a motivation as such to be a pet sitter but more of a need, my building is not pet friendly and I do not feel that I have enough time to give to any pets at the moment so having my own animal is not something I can do right now. Because of this I would love to help care for other peoples fur babies and give them all the love and attention they need. 🩵🩵

Hi, I'm Leanne. I have over 15 years of experience as a pet sitter / dog walker. I've had dogs and cats all my life and I have a ton of great references. 
I worked for a dog walking / pet sitting company for 10 years and then went out on my own as a pet care professional. I have my pet first aid certificate and I'm confident with administering medications and injections. 
I am offering pet sitting for cats and other pets in your home. (Dogs are welcome too!)
My husband is on the app as well and we are available to work as a team if needed. He is the cat whisperer in the family. :)
Pet sits are $25 for a 30 minute visit or $45 for 2 daily visits. 
Please ask if you want more time and we can figure something out. 
I also do overnight pet sits at your house for $60 per day. 
Pet sits include: feeding and treats as per your instruction, litter cleaning, play time, walks, cuddles, brushing, and medications if needed. 
Home maintenance such as watering plants, lights and blinds, alarm, mail, etc.
I think it is very important to keep in contact while the pet parents are away and I will send daily photos, updates, and videos so you can rest assure that your pet is being well cared for. 
I am a calm, gentle and caring animal lover and I will treat your pet like he/she is my own. 
My service area is east Vancouver to Kitsilano, downtown, and as far south as 49th Ave. 
I can take your pet to the salon or vet if needed and I always keep emergency contact information with me at all times. 
Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions and we can discuss the details. 

I've been offerring professional pet sitting for a little over 9 years now. In Alberta, I worked for a reputable pet sitting company, but since moving to Vancouver, I have been offering informal pet sitting and care to close friends. I would like to start offering pet care in a more formal way again, so here I am on Pawshake! 
I grew up in a home with cats and dogs (my parents run a rescue) and have a dog and a rabbit of my own. I have always been passionate about animals and prefer their company over humans! I have experience taking care of cats and dogs of all sizes (big breeds are no problem!) rabbits, hamsters and guinea pigs, as well as a variety of farm animals. 
I work full time in HR and live in Crosstown, so my ideal service area is downtown (Yaletown/West End, Chinatown, Gastown) but I have a vehicle and am willing to travel further afield. 
When I'm not working, my life revolves around caring for my animals, so it is no problem for me to be available most evenings and weekends! I offer dog walks, home pet visits and house sitting in addition to pet care. I enjoy taking daily walks with my pup and would be happy to get more steps in with yours as well! 
Feel free to reach out and I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have. 


Hii, I'm Samsun and I moved to Canada this year in April. I have had an amazing experience with pets as I myself had a pet dog back in my home country. I've not worked as a petsitter but I've had a wonderful experience of 8 years with my pets. I miss my dogs that is the reason why I'm looking forward to doing a job in which I will be able to be around pets and take care of them. I've been looking after my dog's vaccinations, grooming and walks since the time we took him in. I also owned a Aquarium fishes. The house that I'm living in right now also has a pet cat and it's been a great experience with him too. So, I'm looking forward for you all to give me a chance and give your pets a pawsome experience with the love and care that I have to offer for them. I would prefer to babysit the fur babies at their home which I think would be more convenient and comfortable for them, as I know if the families have to travel the pets feel the most comfortable at their own home. This also helps them to maintain a good appetite while their families are away as at least they stay at a place what they call a home. Moreover, I would love to interact with the pet parents and provide their babies with the love, care and protection that I have for them. I’ll be looking forward to interact with you guys!
