Top cities for pet sitting in Canada

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.

Hi! I’m Naomi, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Growing up with pets of my own, I understand how important they are as part of the family. I can offer peace of mind to pet owners knowing their furry friends are in safe, caring hands! I have several years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, including dogs, cats, and small animals. over the course of 2 years I had the pleasure of looking after a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Golden Retriever, both of whom had unique needs that I was happy to accommodate. Whether it's regular dog walking, feeding, or overnight stays, I strive to create a comforting and fun environment for your pets so they feel relaxed and secure, even when you're away.&nbsp;
I prioritize your pet's well-being, which is why I only care for vaccinated pets to ensure their safety and the safety of other animals.
Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’d love to get to know you and your pet!&nbsp;


I’m Katerina, and I’m excited to connect with you from the heart of Downtown Vancouver.
Though I’m new to this platform, I’ve been the trusted pet sitter for family and friends, always eager to lend a helping hand (or paw!). 
I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! Let’s make some wonderful memories together! ️


My name is Sthefanie, and I’m passionate about pets. In Brazil, I have six of them, all vaccinated and well cared for, haha! Growing up surrounded by animals helped me develop a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I have experience not only with walking dogs but also with feeding routines, grooming, and creating a safe and loving environment for them. I believe pets are part of the family and deserve the best care possible. I have worked with different breeds and temperaments, which has taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of consistency in training and care. I’ve also learned how to deal with different situations that pets might face, like anxiety or excitement, and how to help them feel comfortable. I love spending time with animals, and I’m always looking for ways to improve their well-being. I would be very happy to have the opportunity to work with pets and provide them with the love and attention they deserve.

I’ve always loved animals and find joy in caring for them, which motivates me to work as a pet sitter. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I’m committed to providing them with the same love and attention they’re used to at home. Spending time with cats and dogs brings me happiness, and I value the opportunity to form bonds with each pet I care for.

While I don’t have years of experience, I’ve cared for pets on several occasions, providing feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I’m reliable, attentive, and ensure pets feel comfortable and safe in my care. Whether it’s a long walk for an energetic dog or a quiet cuddle session with a shy cat, I tailor my approach to meet their needs.

I’m excited to bring my love for animals and dedication to their well-being to every pet-sitting opportunity. Thank you for trusting me to take care of your furry friend. 

Hello!
Thank you for considering me as your dog walker / drop-in pet visitor. 
I've been fortunate to have been surrounded by pets most of my life — we always had cats and dogs growing up, and I was thankful to have been loved by the bestest and most wonderful French Bulldog in my adult life. Sadly, he passed away a few years ago, and I now live in a rental building with a strict no-pet policy. I can't help but greet every dog I encounter on the street, and have developed a deep desire to have pets in my life again - which is what led me here!
I live steps from the seawall and like to stay active. I love any excuse to get out especially if there is a doggo involved. Would love an opportunity for some longer walks or even hikes if you are interested in this for your dog. 
Please reach if you have any questions - I can't wait to meet your pets!&nbsp;

I love spending time with animals and caring for pets brings me true joy. Back home, my husband and I have a lively team of five mischiefs: three senior dogs, one young dog, and a cat. Although we couldn’t bring them with us when we moved to Canada, they are in great hands with our family.
My husband and I are here to provide love and care to your furry companions as to our own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or providing care, We’ll ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved.
I am working part time and can choose my own schedule for taking care of your pets. I am available every day except for some specific days. Sometimes I’ll be taking care of your pet together with my husband, as we both enjoy spending time with dogs and cats. Feel free to ask and get to know us:)

I provide care for pets in the comfort of their own home, ensuring they feel safe and secure in their familiar environment. My services include:
	•	Feeding and Fresh Water: Making sure your pet stays nourished and hydrated according to their regular schedule.
	•	Exercise and Playtime: Engaging in walks, play sessions, or other activities to keep them physically and mentally stimulated.
	•	Litter Box and Clean-Up: Keeping their living space clean by managing litter boxes or cleaning up any accidents.
	•	Medication Administration: If your pet requires medication, I can administer it responsibly and as directed.
	•	Companionship and Comfort: Spending quality time with your pet to reduce loneliness and ensure they feel loved while you’re away.
	•	Routine Maintenance: Ensuring their bedding, toys, and feeding areas are tidy and in good condition.
	•	Safety Checks: Monitoring your pet’s well-being and ensuring their environment remains hazard-free.

I love going on walks together, playtime, and activities like fetch, chasing bubbles, or even football, my own dogs go crazy for it! I am curios about basic training and teaching tricks for fun. I’ll be happy to take some cute photos or fun videos during our walks with my camera too so you can save fun memories even when away.

As a dedicated pet sitter, my motivation stems from a genuine love for animals and a commitment to ensuring their well-being. My passion for pet sitting goes beyond a mere job; it's a calling to provide compassionate care and companionship to furry friends in their owners' absence. With previous experience in pet care, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a deep understanding of various breeds and their unique needs.
I prioritize the safety of all pets under my care, and to maintain a healthy environment, I exclusively accept vaccinated pets into my home. This precaution ensures the health and happiness of both resident and visiting animals. Whether it's daily check-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I tailor my services to meet the individual requirements of each pet, creating a stress-free experience for them and peace of mind for their owners. Your beloved companions are not just clients to me; they become cherished members of my extended animal-loving family.
I offer all kinds of services for your pets ranging from boarding at my place for up to 2 dogs, walks (usually 45-60 minutes) during boarding, to hikes with dogs upon request of the owner as there are nearby trails to my apartment, minimum of 3 potty breaks per day during boarding, scheduled and standalone dog walks (up to 3 dogs per walk) for when the owner is busy or away from home, and to taking your dog to dog parks so they can socialize and be around other dogs if you wish, etc.
I spend most of my time at home since I do most of my work from home so your beloved pets will not be left alone and will always have someone to look after them during their stay; plus, I live with my brother and mother (both animal lovers like me) in our apartment with a parapet balcony where your pet will spend its time so someone is always there to give your pets the attention they need. 
I have barely any restrictions for pets on where they sleep as I've grown up with animals and we're used to them being around us all the time so even sofas and beds are fair game!

Hii,
I'm Srishti and I moved to Canada last year in June. 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 pet dog Danny. I miss my dog 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. We also owned a speaking mountain parrot that are quite 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!

I am Alda, I live in Kitsilano and I work in a dog daycare, which has allowed me to learn and have greater knowledge of dog behavior, plus I am a faithful lover of them! I enjoy your company and can identify signs or needs that you may present.
My schedule is relative but I am generally available in the mornings before 12:00 and in the afternoons after 20:00 (it may vary depending on my shifts at the dog daycare and we can coordinate in advance)
Within my services I can offer: 30 minute or 60 minute walks, feeding, administering oral medications, baths, basic commands such as: sit, paw, work on improving outdoor walks, playing at home or in the park dog or beach.
For the home visit service, the minimum time I can stay is 20 minutes, everything can be discussed with the owner, if you need me to stay for an hour just let me know!
Because of my work I have had to know all types of breeds and sizes of dogs, I know that each dog is unique and special so I can adapt to all the needs that your best dog friend requires, do not hesitate to contact me!

I've been offerring professional pet sitting for a little over 11 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 Marketing and live in Crosstown, so my  service area is downtown (Yaletown, West End, Chinatown, Gastown) but I have a vehicle and am willing to travel further afield (Kits, Mt Pleasant, Dunbar.) 
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.
