About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to calmer senior dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and focus on each pet’s individual needs and routine, whether that’s walks, playtime, or just cuddles. I also have experience with basic training and helping pets feel comfortable and happy in a new environment. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand how hard it can be to leave your beloved pet behind, so I’m committed to making the experience comfortable and stress-free for both you and your dog. I currently work as a substitute teacher in Antigonish, typically from 8:00–2:30, and most weeks I work 3–4 days. This schedule gives me flexibility for early morning care, afternoon check-ins, and evening walks or visits. On days I’m not working, I have full availability and can provide more time, attention, and longer visits. I want pets to feel happy, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I follow their usual routines, keep things calm and positive, and always prioritize safety. I don’t have a fenced-in yard, but dogs are always supervised outside, and they’re welcome on the furniture for extra comfort and cuddles.
About: I adore dogs! I have experience with dogs of different breeds and sizes, from their puppyhood to senior years. I also have 9+ years of experience taking care of a dog with idiopathic epilepsy and other health issues. My approach with your dog will emphasize calm, assertive, and kind energy - I will treat your dog like my own! My work schedule is flexible, especially from April - August. My work is close to my home, and I also work from my home a lot. I set my hours. I have leashes, dog beds, gates, and toys. I also have 1 acres of backyard and a car to take your dog to the park.
