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

  • How much do your services cost?

    Pricing for services depends on specifically what you're looking for. Head over to my rates page for details on rates for my various dog walking and pet care services.

  • Do you cancel walks or hikes due to the weather?

    Not very often! However, there are instances where the weather can be dangerous, such as extremely hot/cold temperatures, or very windy/snowy days. In these cases I may choose to shorten or cancel services altogether depending on the circumstances.

  • 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.

  • What is your service area?

    Dog hikes & home visits

    Dee's Dogs primarily provides dog hiking and home visit services to Nanaimo. I also work with clients in outlying areas that include Extension Road and Nanaimo River Road to the Nanaimo Lakes Road area. These services do not extend to Cedar.

    Pet sitting

    For my pet sitting services, I work in the communities listed above and in areas just outside of Nanaimo, such as Cedar, Lantzville, and Nanoose Bay, depending on the needs of your pets.

  • Do you use electronic training collars?

    Yes, but only at a client's request, and only if they have done basic balanced training exercises (not purely punishment based) with their dog and the collar. They can be useful in off-leash back-road scenarios to avoid dangerous situations.
