My Services And Rates
Pet Sitting
We stay in YOUR home (if you choose) which allows your animals to be in their own environment where they have the security, comfort and familiarity of their own smells and surroundings. You won’t have to worry about your pet contracting fleas or kennel cough which can happen in boarding facilities, and day cares and you know your pet will be safe and well cared for by a professional who gives all the one-one-one attention your pet needs and deserves.
Upon consultation, I will help you complete an application that will help me get to know all the pertinent information about caring for your loved ones. I will also ask you to fill out a contact form so I am able to reach you while you are away.
Separation anxiety animals would not be suited due to being on the road all day.
Dog sitting is limited to the service areas of Colwood, View Royal, Vic West, Esquimalt and Langford.
