About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other pets through my own pet care business, Kenzie’s Canine Club. I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, pet sitting, basic grooming services, and dog training support, and I’ve worked with pets of different ages, personalities, routines, and comfort levels. I’m also trained in dog training and have experience working with dogs who may be nervous, excitable, strong on leash, or unsure of new people. I believe in giving every pet the time and space they need to feel comfortable and using patient, positive, reward-based handling. Pet care is something I take very seriously. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual routine, feeding instructions, exercise needs, behaviour, and safety, while also making sure they get plenty of affection, enrichment, and one-on-one attention. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, so I always aim to keep pet parents updated and treat every animal in my care like they’re part of the family. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to offer pet care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends. Since I run my own pet care business, I'm able to plan my schedule around my clients and their pet's individual routines. I offer both regular reoccurring care and occasional bookings, and I'll always do my best to accommodate last minute bookings when my schedule allows. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, a drop-in while you're at work, or care while you are away, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet's boundaries, temperament, triggers, and any special instructions before providing care, and I never force interactions with an animal who needs extra time to feel comfortable. I am careful with doors, gates, leashes, harnesses, and outdoor spaces, and I follow all household and care instructions closely. I also believe trust is built through patience and consistency, especially with nervous or cautious pet's. When caring for pet's in their own home, I respect bother their space and yours. My goal is to create a calm, secure environment where your pet can relax and feel comfortable while you are away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Arnprior
We couldn’t be happier with Montana! He has been so wonderful with our puppy, especially while we’re away for long days. He’s been incredibly patient and helpful in getting our puppy comfortable with drop-in visits. He is calm, friendly, reliable, and clearly has a great way with dogs. It’s a huge relief knowing he is in such good hands when we’re travelling or away for the day. We truly appreciate everything he does and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their dog!
Suzanne was amazing watching our cat Luna while we were on vacation. She was always on time for her visits, gave her lots of playtime and pets, always took great care of her by providing her food, new water and changing her litter. She also sent photos and good updates to know what happened on each visit. With her past knowledge of cats and dogs, you can rest assured your pet is in good hands while you are away. We would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her in the future. Thank you Suzanne! ☺️
Jenna was Amazing! responded very quickly to my initial request, came over for a meet and greet prior to our first booking and kept me updated with photos and amazing communication during her drop in! Couldn’t be happier with our experience will definitely be booking again in the future!
Trudy did a fantastic job! The kitties were very well taken care of and they barely knew I was gone. Lol she is a great communicator and was able to send me lots of pictures and video. It makes such a big difference to see those when you’re missing them but can see that they’re good.
