CR Pet Nanny offers kind, compassionate and safe in-you-home care, and/or day time walks while pet owners are at work, or as an alternative to boarding in kennels. No longer do you have to impose on family and friends while on vacation, on a day trip, away on business trips or recovering from illness or injury. Through daily notes and social media I strive to keep clients updated on their pets' life while you are away, or simply how their daytime walk went. My main concern is the quality of life pets receive and that you, the owner, are not spending time worrying when you should be doing something else. I know! I've been there! Although I get most requests for caring for dogs and cats while people travel for business or pleasure I also look after all living creatures including rabbits, birds, fish, guinea pigs, hamsters, snakes, goats, backyard chickens … basically all living creatures although admittedly i am not fond of rats. I believe your animals are better off being at home and walked from home and back. This results in reduced stress and anxiety by being in their own territory, surrounded by familiar sights, scents and sounds. Their routine is kept as close to normal as my schedule allows. What the Pet Nanny offers YOUR PET It greatly reduces risk of exposure to illnesses from other animals They are not traumatized by travel to kennel and watching owner walk away while being left in a strange environment. They will receive the exercise and potty breaks they need in order to keep them healthy and living longer. They will receive lots of attention and loving from people who truly care as much about your pet as you do. Training techniques re-enforced They are happier and better behaved because they are receiving the attention they need. What the Pet Nanny offers YOU. You will not be inconvenienced or upset by transporting your pet. You can mix and match length of visits to suit your pets needs and your budget No long term commitment required. Even if you just need one visit while you take the family to Nanaimo for a day, we will give your pet the same love, care and devotion as we do a client going on a 3 week vacation. You have the peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving the exercise, potty breaks and attention they require. You do not have to impose on friends, neighbours or relatives who may forget to care for your pet. While you are away, you can feel confident that your pet is in capable, caring hands. Your home is made more secure by the crime-deterrent measures provided by our pet sitting service. We provide other assistance like watering plants and bringing in the mail.

Unusual working hours, going on a family trip or to a wedding for a day or illnesses may make it difficult to care for your pet. When those times arise, the Pet Nanny is just a phone call away, ready to provide assistance. Based on availability, short notice same day (emergency) requests are accepted. I am here to assist low and fixed income pet owners in special circumstances.
