About: 🐶🐾$20 off promo code of your first booking: EMILYC35575 ⭐️August promotion: $18/walk⭐️ Hello I’m Emily! I have been a passionate dog lover my entire life and personally raised my own Maltipoo for 6 years in Korea. I have been living in Canada for 2 years now, and because I am away from my beloved dog back home, I miss her terribly every single day. I want to channel all that longing, love, and affection into caring for the wonderful dogs here in Canada. Back in Korea, I made it a strict rule to take my dog out for walks every single day without fail, ensuring she always received abundant exercise, attention, and love. Beyond my own pet, I have extensive experience pet-sitting for my friends' dogs on multiple occasions. Whether it was for a short weekend or a longer stay, I provided dedicated, heartfelt care that left both the dogs incredibly happy and their owners completely satisfied and at peace. Over the past 2 years in Canada, I have also gained practical experience walking various breeds, including a high-energy Dalmatian mix and a Jindo mix. I genuinely enjoy discovering each dog's unique personality and have a natural knack for making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved around me. I promise to treat your furry family member with the exact same devotion and deep responsibility that I give to my own. I currently work during the weekdays, so I’m generally available for walks and pet care after 6 PM on weekdays. My availability may vary slightly from week to week, so I’d be happy to coordinate schedules in advance. Please feel free to reach out beforehand, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. I’m great at playing with dogs using toys, and I’m confident I can take them for walks or play fetch outside. I can also train them, like bell training or teaching them to lie down. I have trained my own dog before.
“Will definitely book her for the next time! Strongly recommend her be your cat sitter as she’s careful, thoughtful, caring and friendly. She’s very responsive and responsible. She sent me pictures which showed my baby was enjoying playing with her. She also did some light cleaning work for my baby which I appreciate a lot!”

About: I’ve been a dog owner and foster parent for over 8 years, with hands-on experience raising and caring for high-energy and strong-willed breeds. I raised my Shiba Inu from puppyhood and later fostered a Husky–Malinois cross for two years in the UK. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and focus on calm, structured walks that are safe, engaging, and tailored to each dog’s needs. Happy to do a short meet-and-greet before the first walk. I specialise in evening walks on weekdays after 6pm, which works well for owners with long workdays. On weekends, I’m available for morning and evening walks, with some midday flexibility depending on scheduling. Safety is always my priority. I make sure dogs are securely leashed, closely supervised, and returned home settled and safe after each walk. I’m respectful of both pets and their homes and follow all owner instructions carefully.
“Sandy is wonderful. I felt extremely comfortable using this app for the first time because she put me at ease with her clear and warm communication. With my dog being quite the barking drama queen, I was concerned with how she will react to strangers but it seems Sandy knows how to work well with animals. I will definitely be using her services again. Recommend, 5stars. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been a dog mom for 13 years to my old pup, whom I raised from puppyhood to her senior years. Caring for her has given me hands-on experience with everything from potty training and socialization to senior support and medication routines. Over time, I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs while they travel, including small breeds, energetic young dogs, and older pups who need extra patience and gentle handling. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and comfort level — and I adapt to that. What sets me apart is attentiveness. I pay close attention to body language, appetite, energy levels, and subtle behavioral changes. Your dog won’t just be supervised — they’ll be cared for thoughtfully. I provide regular updates with photos and videos so you always feel connected and reassured while you’re away.

In my home, I remove any small or unsafe objects from reachable areas and ensure doors and windows are always secured. I supervise interactions closely and never leave dogs unattended in situations that could feel overwhelming or unsafe. I follow each pet’s routine carefully — including feeding schedules, walk preferences, crate training (if applicable), and any special instructions provided by the owner. I also monitor behavior, appetite, and energy levels throughout their stay. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space completely and maintain the same safety standards, cleanliness, and structure the dog is used to. My goal is to keep everything consistent so your pet feels comfortable and stress-free. I provide regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing.

Your instructions should explain where supplies, such as food, treats, medication, leashes, litter and cleaning supplies are kept. Include your vet’s details and an emergency contact, and let your sitter know what signs could indicate that something is wrong.
For some visits, you may want to confirm how the sitter will access your home and identify any rooms or areas that are off-limits. Update these instructions whenever your pet’s routine or needs change.
