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
-
Do you offer discounts when pet sitting for low-needs pets?
Yes, I offer a lowered pet sitting rate for cats and other less social pets. Some dogs may also qualify for this lower rates if they require less frequent check-ins and social time. It all depends on your pet's particular situation.
To see if you quality for a “low needs” discount, please inquire for details.
-
What time do you arrive and leave when pet sitting?
My first visit (or check in) included in my base rate is ETA 4-6pm, and the final visit (or check out) is also ETD 4-6pm.
-
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.
-
Do you offer pet sitting for special needs pets?
Yes. My pet sitting experience includes caring for animals with special needs, such as dogs with mobility issues or dietary restrictions. I am also certified in Canine First Aid and have no problems administering medicine and taking care of other particular needs.

Can you walk my dog regularly every weekend?
No. Although I do work occasional weekends, and I am open to advance requests for weekends and holidays, I cannot guarantee a regular weekly service as I do take time off to recharge.
