Vancouver, BCBreed: Chihuahua
Weight: 10 lbs
Age: 13 years old
Gender: Male
Hello, My name is Smita and I would love to connect with neighbors who would be interested in sharing dog sitting responsibilities. My dog, Chip, is almost 14 years old. He takes his time to get used to new people but likes meeting other dogs. Chip is scared of bigger dogs and has never been around cats. Older dogs who are around his size would be ideal companions for him.

She’s Very friendly and likes to sleep her head on your lap. She doesn’t like to be left alone but we do leave her alone when we go to work. If left alone too long she might bite stuff like plastic. She kinda a picky eater but she’s good with a dry food diet. Sometimes we give her some plain chicken bits. She likes playing fetch.
Ollie
Vancouver, BCBreed: Mixed Breed
Weight: 40 lbs
Age: 5 years old
Gender: Male
Hi, we're Nick, Tori and Ollie. We live in an apartment in East Van with access to a fully fenced yard, plus we're two blocks from Trout Lake. Our lives revolve around Ollie and we love him dearly! He's a very playful guy, and loves to make new friends. He was a street dog in Chile and now lives the life of luxury in Vancouver! His favourite place on earth is his very own yellow sofa. Nick and I both work from home most days. I work for the BC SPCA and Ollie loves coming to the office with me twice a week to see all his fellow office dog friends. If your pup would enjoy being spoiled by my colleagues, they'd be more than welcome to join us! Ollie has separation anxiety and while we are making progress with training, this means currently one of us is always with him. So your pup would have our dedicated attention too! We'd love to find fellow dog parents looking to grow their support network as we are looking to grow ours.
Goose
Vancouver, BCBreed: Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever
Weight: 50 lbs
Age: 3 years old
Gender: Male
Hi! Goose and I live in a townhouse in Fairview. I work from home half the week and we make sure to get to the dog park daily. He's fairly low energy, but a bit anxious. Once he gets to know you or your dog he's an angel though. Likes sleeping on the bed but if you try to cuddle him too much he'll run away. Fairly neutral around other dogs, and very food motivated. Looking for neighbours in the area with similar dogs!
Rigo
Vancouver, BCBreed: Mystery mix, Portuguese Pointer/staffy/boxer
Weight: 70 lbs
Age: 4 years old
Gender: Male
I am someone who unabashedly loves dogs more than people, but I’m also good at people as I work in communications. I’ve spent countless hours volunteering with animal welfare organizations in Mexico, though I’m a Vancouverite. Rigo is a rescue from Puerto Vallarta. He is the calmest guy, but playful when there is playing to be had. He has fostered many other street pups. He gets along with kids, babies and dogs, though he has not been around cats much. He seems to have a healthy fear of them. He swims, fetches, plays, and naps with aplomb.
