Why Professional Pet Care Just Makes Sense
Hiring professional pet care means your pets are cared for by experienced, reliable people—so you don’t have to rely on favours, guesswork, or last-minute arrangements.
Whether it’s overnight in-home care, drop-in visits, or dog walks, professional pet sitters keep pets comfortable in their own environment, following their regular routine. It’s a calmer, more personalized option than kennels or inconsistent care, and one many pets truly thrive with.



Your home is cared for at the same time. It stays lived-in, secure, and looked after, from everyday details to the unexpected.
At the end of the day, professional pet care means your pets are comfortable, your home is secure, and you can travel knowing everything is in good hands.
Meet The Pet Sitting Pros
We’re Donna and Karen—a professional pet sitting team based on Vancouver Island, traveling throughout Victoria, the Saanich Peninsula, and the Gulf Islands with our tiny rescue dog, Dewey.
With over a decade of hands-on pet care experience and all 5-star reviews, we care for dogs, cats, small animals, reptiles, farm animals, and the homes they live in as if they were our own.



Great pet care, in our experience, comes down to being present, patient, and genuinely kind—while also knowing when to step in and take the lead. We’re calm, affectionate, and attentive, but we’re also confident and capable, which helps pets feel safe and settled quickly.
Whether you’re away for a workday, a weekend, or a long holiday, we offer in-home pet and house care tailored to your needs—so you can travel knowing everything is genuinely looked after.
We’re insured through TD Bank and certified in Walks ‘N’ Wags Pet First Aid. We also travel with Dewey, our gentle, well-mannered four-legged companion.
Our Dog Dewey, a Pet Sitting Pro 🐾
Dewey, our sweet 10-pound rescue dog, is a big part of The Pet Sitting Pros team. As pet sitters with a dog, we’re thoughtful about how he joins our stays, and he’s become a familiar, comforting presence for many of the pets we care for during our in-home pet sitting with a dog services.
He’s gentle, friendly, and great at reading other dogs’ cues. He also gets along well with cats, and fully understands that they’re in charge.
Dewey has even spent time alongside sheep and a mini horse on a small farm. Not bad for a little rescue pup living his best professional pet sitter life.



Whether he’s joining in on a walk or finding the coziest spot for a well-earned nap, Dewey adds an extra layer of calm and comfort to every stay. He takes his role seriously… and his naps even more so.
Trusted, 5-Star Pet Sitters
So, what sets us apart?
You get two experienced pet care professionals, not a rotating sitter or last-minute backup. Between us, we bring over 10 years of professional pet and house sitting experience, plus a lifetime of caring for our own dogs and cats. We’re also comfortable with horses, sheep, and farm settings.
We focus on what pets need most: familiar routines, calm energy, and genuine affection. We’re loving and attentive, but also confident and capable, which helps pets settle quickly and feel secure in their own home.



As homeowners ourselves, we understand how important it is that your home is respected and well cared for. We keep things running smoothly, notice the small details, and keep an eye out for the unexpected while you’re away.
Before every sit, we arrange a meet-and-greet so we can walk through routines, expectations, and anything unique about your pets or home. That way, everyone feels comfortable from the start.
When you book The Pet Sitting Pros, you’re choosing reliable, thoughtful care—and the peace of mind that comes with it.
Client Testimonials
Hear what our clients have to say.
“5 stars plus!”
This was our second time to have Donna and Karen look after our acreage and animals: sheep, mini horse, and dog. They are extremely conscientious and love animals. The house was in perfect order. We feel so fortunate to have been able to have them stay here. They handled a medical issue with our dog with calmness and professionalism. 5 stars plus!

Cared For: Border Collie, Mini Horse, and 2 Sheep
We dealt with a basement leak at this sit:
Donna and Karen went above and beyond taking care of Inja and our home. They delt with a leak in our home and a delay in our return without issue. I am so grateful we had them as sitters during the past two weeks.

If we could give Donna & Karen 100 stars, we would! They truly enjoyed our cat & dog, you can definitely tell how much they love animals. We got daily photos or videos. Their communication was excellent, the house was tidy & clean. We never once worried about our home or pets we can’t thank them enough. Bravo.

They highly recommend us.
Donna and Karen are two remarkable people. We were gone for three weeks and they cared for our three dogs and our house beautifully. They came over a few days early and we enjoyed getting to know them and Dewey. While we were away they sent us photos and videos with updates almost every day. We came home to a clean house and very healthy and content dogs! We highly recommend Donna and Karen, and we hope to see them again!
