Dee’s Pet Care Services

  • Dog Hiking

    I’ll pick up your dog for a proper outdoor adventure and drop them off ready to nap. Choose between small-group social hikes or solo hikes.
  • Pet Sitting

    I’ll stay over at your place, either just overnight or for longer stretches. Your pets will be entertained and safe, and your home won’t be empty.
  • Home Visits

    I’ll check in on your pets and take your dog out for a potty break or a neighbourhood walk. Perfect for busy or working moms ‘n dads!

Your pet’s in safe paws

Jacky Dee here! I’m a loving mom to Zoe The Adventure Dog and the proud owner/operator of Nanaimo’s Dee’s Dogs.

I’ve been hiking with and taking care of animals for as long as I can remember, and since Dee’s Dogs started in 2018 I have been caring for Nanaimo’s canine and small pet community.

I take my profession seriously.

During hikes I fit GPS collars to all dogs, I carry commercial insurance coverage, and am certified in canine first aid.

In other words, your pet’s in safe paws with me!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Where can I download the booking app?

    You can download the “Time to Pet” app for iPhone and Android via the Apple App Store and the Google Play marketplace:

  • Will you muzzle train my dog?

    No. I have very limited experience introducing dogs to muzzles for the first time, so if your dog requires one it is your responsibility to muzzle train.

  • Do you work with animals other than dogs?

    Yes! I offer my home visits and pet sitting services to cats and other small pets. I have experience with rabbits, fish, turtles, chickens, ducks, iguanas, guinea pigs, and similar small pets. I am also willing to discuss other potential animals beyond the regular small furry creatures and cage pets, so just get in touch with your questions.

  • Will you walk my dog if I am sick with a contagious illness?

    Yes, but only if contact-free pickup is available and your dog's collar any gate/touch surface is sanitized. I will not enter your home or use your leash, but I will pick up and drop off your dog from your secured yard.

  • Do you have a cancellation policy?

    Yes. Due to the limited nature of my pet sitting and dog walking spots, I do enforce fairly strict policies for cancellations or major rescheduling. My policies vary depending on what service is booked, so please contact me for more details or consult your Client Agreement forms.

  • What is your pet sitting service area?

    I offer my pet sitting services in the Nanaimo area and in communities just outside of town, such as Cedar, Lantzville, and Nanoose Bay, depending on the needs of your pets.
