Looking for Reliable House Sitter for Two-Week Vacation near Steveston
Message From The Owner
  • We are a small, family-run dog walking and boarding business, and we are expanding our services to offer in-client-home sitting now because so many people in Richmond are asking for it.

  • We are looking for someone reliable to handle our very first booking—a lovely family's home and their medium-sized lab mix for two weeks next month.

  • You would be responsible for staying overnight every night and following a strict feeding and walking schedule for the dog, who needs two long walks (at least 45 minutes) a day and a shorter evening potty break.

  • We already have the signed contract and detailed instructions; we just need the right person to handle the day-to-day.

  • This is a great opportunity to get a lot of hours with a professional company, and we plan to use you recurringly if this first job goes well, as we are looking for more clients right now.

  • The property is a detached house in the Steveston area of Richmond, so parking is usually quite easy, but it’s a bit of a distance from the main transit routes, so having your own reliable transportation is key.

  • You'd be responsible for managing any emergencies, keeping detailed daily logs of the dog's activities (eating, walking, bathroom breaks), and maintaining the general tidiness of the home.

  • Please remember that you must be legally allowed to work in Canada for this task.

  • We prefer candidates with their own transportation because the client's home is a bit out of the way. We want to make sure you can get there easily for the start date.

  • We can negotiate the price based on your experience and what you typically charge for a two-week sit.

  • The clients have high expectations for communication, so we need someone who will check in with us (not the client directly) twice a day.

  • This includes a morning photo update and an evening summary of how things went.

  • Plan to arrive early as parking is difficult to find near the waterfront - it's Richmond after all!
