Dog Walkers in Brant

About: I have had pets my entire life and cannot remember a time without animals. I grew up with cats and they have always been part of my life. During my teen and university years, my family also had a diabetic West Highland Terrier, and I was closely involved in his daily care. I have extensive experience caring for pets with medical needs. Our dog was diabetic, and I was responsible for administering insulin. Over the years, I have also cared for two diabetic cats, giving insulin injections and managing their routines. I am comfortable giving medication or drops to cooperative pets and understand the importance of consistency, calmness, and trust when providing medical care. I regularly care for cats and dogs for family and friends when they are away, providing drop in visits, dog walks, feeding, litter box maintenance, and medication as needed. I currently have two cats of my own and often cat sit my “grandcat,” so caring for multiple cats and maintaining routines is very familiar to me. I am comfortable with both cats and dogs of all ages and enjoy providing calm, nurturing care. For safety and wellbeing, I do not take on pets with aggressive behaviours. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I own my own business and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to visit pets, take them for walks, play with them, and spend relaxed time with them throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. During drop in visits, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, fresh water is provided, litter boxes are cleaned as needed, and any medications are given according to instructions. I spend quality time with each pet during visits, whether that means playtime, gentle companionship, or simply sitting with them if they prefer a calmer presence. For dogs, I provide safe, attentive walks suited to their energy level and comfort, followed by time to relax and settle back at home. I am respectful of each client’s home and follow all care instructions closely. My goal is for pets to feel calm, cared for, and well attended while their owners are away.

About: My special skills might be too vast to list. I have experience with a wide array of animal care including dog, cat, small animal, exotics, equine and avian. I've cared for animals in all life stages, with high behavioral needs, complex and chronic medical conditions as well I am confident in crisis intervention. Please feel free to reach out so we can discuss my experience in more detail. My schedule is generally quite flexible and I should be able to accomodate most needs especially when special care like medications and treatments are needed. I have a large backyard in a friendly neighborhood. My home is very spacious with the ability to seperate animals who need a peaceful space to decompress. I have two cats who are comfortable with most other animals and when they aren't they graciously exit the situation and have the space to do so with ease. Our home also hosts two senior budgies but they have their own private room with a locked door.

About: Being a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of finding a dog sitter who genuinely cares and willing to give the attention your dog needs. I have a 4 yr old goldendoodle, Maui who would love some company 💕 he loves meeting new dogs and making friends. I am home throughout the week so rest assured, your dog will get all the attention and love they need and more ✨ There will be lots of play, walks and cuddles. 😌 Available for boarding, doggy day care, dog walks and drop-in visits. I am self employed and full time taking care of my dog so I am with my dog throughout the day. Your dog is no different to me 💕 when your dog is home, he/she will have a best friend (my dog) and me, who will take care of them and enjoy all the extra cuddles. I give food according to your schedule set, give 2 walks everyday and lots of play/activities/puzzles during the day. Rest assured, your dog will come back home tired after a long day of play 😌 I currently do not have a fenced yard but I’m always extremely careful and leash our dog for pee breaks/potty breaks when I take them to the yard. I have never had any incidents of dogs getting away because that’s how cautious I am. So safety is always my priority.

About: Since I was born, my family has owned dogs. Growing up, I had two big dogs, a Husky, Collie mix names Fisher and German Shephard, Rottweiler mix named Sam. Our next pup was a mutt named Bolt that we had rescued from the Highway up in Northern Muskoka. She was a small dog with a Boxer, Pug and Terrier mix. It wasn't until 2016 when I saved my first cat from being hit by a car, Mango, that I was fully taking care of my onw pet. To date, we now have a Husky Australian Shephard puppy named Luna, and Mango and another little black kitty named Jolene. I also live with a Rottweiler Lab mix named Poppy, who is such a sweetie, and a crazy ginger kitten named Hippo. I am well versed in dog and cat handling, and will take extra care and time with your pets. There is no limit to the amount of love they will receive while in my care! In my house currently, we have three cats and a dog. I would say that pet care is a major priority in my day. Feeding, walking, cleaning up after and caring for our babies is absolutely part of my daily life. I will ensure your pets are handled with the highest professional care. They will have a constant eye on them so long as I am caring for them. They are my top priority and I will ensure that they are safe during walkings, feedings, play and cuddle time. I take pet enrichment very seriously and will ensure your pet is sleepy at the end of the day.

“Meg was a wonderful dog walker for my dog Farley. He is usually quite shy with strangers, but he was quite comfortable with her. Meg is very reliable and punctual and I appreciated her daily updates on their walks. I would highly recommend Meg for anyone looking for a responsible, reliable, and loving dog walker.”

Thank you Andrea!”
