all year round without the overwhelm
You love your garden, but every time you look outside you catch yourself thinking:
“I’ll get to that… mowing the lawn, weeding the beds, cutting back that shrub.”
And then life pulls you in another direction.
Your garden should feel inviting — a place of peace, joy, and even a bit of therapy.
A space to play, relax, and recharge.
It's time for your garden to shine -
and for you to finally reap the rewards
With our reliable, year-round garden care, you can enjoy a beautiful, well-kept yard without the stress of keeping up with it yourself. Every two weeks, we visit for the time you choose—1, 1.5, or 2 hours—to look after your garden and surrounding areas so your property always looks its best. You’ll have peace of mind knowing that mowing, edging, weeding, hedging, shearing, pruning, planting, and mulching are all taken care of, keeping your garden healthy and thriving. If you’d like extra projects done, we can add those as needed. Whether your property is 5,000 or 20,000 sq. ft., our goal is to give you a garden you’re proud of—one of the best on the block.
A seasonal clean-up gives you a fresh start and takes the hard work off your hands—whether it’s for your own garden, a rental property, or preparing a home for sale. In just 2–3 hours, with a team of 2–3 gardeners, your property will be cleared and tidied so you can immediately see the difference. Because every season brings its own challenges—like cutting back summer growth, pruning at the right times, or clearing away fallen acorns, chestnuts, and leaves—our clean-ups keep your garden healthy and your yard safe, without you needing to worry about the mess.
Your garden deserves reliable care and attention. The very first spark for Gary Your Gardener came from a conversation Petra had with a neighbor — someone just like you who wanted trustworthy, consistent help in their garden. From that moment, we’ve been committed to looking after every client’s space as if it were our own. You can count on us to show up on time, keep communication A+ so you’re always in the loop, and take the hard work off your hands. Along the way, we’re happy to share helpful knowledge that makes your garden even more enjoyable. With our friendly, reliable team, you get to enjoy a beautiful garden without the burden of keeping up with it all yourself.
We care for your lawn, by mowing and edging, and fertilizing. As the seasons come and go we clear chestnuts, acorns, leaves making your yard safe and stunning.
As the season come and go we trim trees, prune fruit trees, shear laurel, cedar hedges, box woods leaving every shrub ready to thrive.
There are seasons for planting and others for soil care. We clear garden beds of invasives weeds, feed and mulch your soil so that your plants grow happily.
As the garden wakes up, we clear away winter’s debris, tidy trees and lawns, and give your garden a fresh start. Spring is the time for mowing, mulching, planting, and adding new soil — setting everything up for a healthy, vibrant season ahead.
Summer is all about keeping the garden in its best shape. We prune and reduce trees, shear shrubs, mow lawns, weed garden beds, and keep hedges neat — making sure everything thrives and looks its best through the long, warm days.
As the leaves start to drop, we keep your garden tidy and ready for the changing season. We handle leaf, chestnut, and acorn cleanup, mow lawns, and prepare garden beds for fall planting — keeping your yard neat and cared for as it transitions into winter.
Winter is the time to tidy and prepare for the seasons ahead. We clear away tree debris, prune fruit trees, and care for the structure of your garden — ensuring everything is healthy, safe, and ready to burst back to life in spring.

We are located in Oak Bay. We use a commercial dump which means we travel out to the dump and pay a fee. As such we also charge a fee for our time, gas, the dump fee as part of our service. The rate depends on how much space the green waste takes up in the truck.
We respectfully acknowledge that we live and work on the traditional lands of the lək̓ʷəŋən peoples — the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations — and honor their enduring relationship with this land.
