We are looking for someone to stay in our house in the beautiful Point Grey area of Vancouver and look after our two-year-old dog Sadie and our sweet kitty Dusty.

We are going away for about three weeks. We will be gone from Nov 2nd to 24th - it may change by a day either side depending on the flights we book. 

Sadie likes a couple of walks each day. She's a sweet dog that's energetic and also somewhat timid. Being part Great Pyrenees, she can also be strong-willed so we would want you to be consistent with her. Dusty is easy - feed her and cuddle when asked! 


The neighbourhood is very safe and well established with tree-lined streets, a great mix of people, many shops and restaurants nearby, and Pacific Spirit Park only three blocks away.  It's a 2000+ acre natural park with trails for walking, running, and bike or horse riding.  It's any dog's favourite place, followed closely by the beach which is also very close by.  Spanish Banks beach has an off-leash area where pups can make new friends.  

NOTE: We have a Ukrainian student who lives in our home as well who will be here during this time. She is very independent and unable to take care of the animals due to her busy school and work schedule. She's great company when she's here.

Please let us know if you're interested.

“ Lovely Neighbourhood Sit ”

Sit Dates Feb-10-23 - Mar-5-23 Sitter SunnyDays17, Member Since Dec-22-22

Melanie and Keith were great hosts, easy to communicate with, and very welcoming.

Location: Great neighborhood, a few blocks walking to shops, banks, stores, and groceries. Large park nearby, tree-lined streets, and close to the ocean. The area had a buzz about it. I also was able to utilize their electric car, which was very convenient for errands. Thank you!

Pets:

Dusty, their cat, was a loveable furry addition to the family that had a personality all her own. She was easily amused during the day and came and sat on my lap when she wanted attention. She even cleaned the floor after she did her business. Totally made me laugh!

Sadie, their 5-6 month-old puppy, was adorable and had tons of energy to boot. She loved going on walks. I ended up teaching her how to sit at the sidewalk curbs (people walking by commented how lovely it was to see), walked more easily beside me, and ended up playing catch with her pineapple toy by the time I left. She also totally napped out when we came home. I also took her to the vet to get vaccinated. Thank you Sasha for the help! (a student who is staying at their house during my stay).

 Lovely stay, with beautiful animals, a convenient location, and great hosts.

Thank you for having me!
