Dog Walking Dunnville

About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats going on 8 years! I’ve dog sat anywhere from large labs to small chihuahuas! I’ve done a range of dog walking to dog sitting and enjoyed every second of it! I also have worked at a pet daycare and boarding facility for the last year so I know all the ins and outs of caring for pets or all needs and sizes:) My husband and I have 9 year old Australian Shepherd named Miller, and a 4 year old Boxer named Zeus. They are the best boys and we love them dearly🤎 I’m so excited to carry my love for animals into al aspects of my life as well as a fun way to make some extra money! I live in Dunnville but take care of pets in many places! Including Wainfleet and Wellandport. I have lots of availability for 6 days a week to check in and love on your fur babies, nothing hits the spot like going for a long walk with a sweet four legged friend or cuddling a sweet kitty. I’ve always treated the dogs i’ve walked or dog sat like my very own, ensuring they’re well fed and exercised, with a large side of love! Dog walking is such a fun way to get to know all kinds of dogs and their cheeky personalities! I’m really looking forward to all the furry friends I get to make along the way:)

About: I’ve had animals my whole life, as for right now I am travelling on and off and therefore cannot have my own furry friend. But in the meantime would love to go on walks and take care of yours! I have plenty of availability when I’m not travelling! When I’m not travelling or volunteering to help youth or other animal programs, I am doing this! When watching the pets taking them out, playing with them, allowing them to eat on time is very important. A healthy balance of everything is what they need!

About: I have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own, I've grown up always having pets in my home. From caring for horses, chickens, ducks and other farm animals, to caring for cats, dogs, fish, turtles and other reptiles. I have experience handling dogs with structured training. I will happily follow whatever training their pet parents are practicing. My 2 Dutchie/Malis are professionally trained by private trainers at Sheild K9 in Puslinch. I'm a community healthcare worker so I don't work long hours. I'm always out and about around all parts of Lincoln, Grimsby, Smithville, Dunnville, Welland, Wainfleet, Lowbanks, Pelham and parts of St. Catherines as well. I can easily fit a visit into my regular work day or I can see them before and/or after I work too. One of the beauties of being a community healthcare worker is I manage my own daily work schedule. I follow the care plans each individual client sets out for their home and pets. You know your pet best and you know what they like, I'm more than happy to follow my clients instructions. I can provide updates, progress notes, and pictures of your pets upon request.

About: No request from you is too big!! My husband and I live in the middle of Welland. I started a not-for-profit dog rescue (Red Dog Rescue) from my home. We have saved 500 dogs off the streets of Texas since January 2020 and re-homed them here in Ontario. I left it late 2021 as the stress was too much but I do still foster the occasional dog! We own 5 rescue dogs total: 1. Bulldog (named KD) 2. Beagle (Lucy) 3. Collie (Kody) 4. Husky (Pretzel) 5. Bulldog (Silver) We go for walks, runs, hiking on trails and trips to the park daily! We do not go to dog parks due to the risk of incidents. We believe a tired dog is a good dog. Frozen peanut butter or treats in Kong's are given MINIMUM daily depending on allergies/sensitivities. Our love for these animals is unending and all dog guests are treated like our own. We live a very active lifestyle but are willing to tone it down to care for sick/old dogs as well. Contagious sicknesses however we cannot accept due to the high amount of dogs we have coming and going. We have a private dog area for dogs that are not socialized/aggressive but can only take 1 at a time. All dogs are “puppies” in our house, no matter how old they are. Corey and Robyn are Paramedics however Robyn now works from home while on mat leave, so someone is usually always home. We both know first aid and CPR for dogs, as well as any wound care and are willing to take the dog to a vet of your choice if needed, but are able to determine if the dog needs to go to the closest facility in case of an emergency. We both have experience with pilling animals and treating wounds, as well as we can do injections, first aid and CPR. Robyn worked at a vet clinic for 6 years with cats and dogs. She opened a grooming clinic in the downstairs of the vet. Her motto is “no dog left behind” and people brought the most aggressive dogs to her to be trained how to behave and relax/enjoy grooming. Dogs that other groomers turned away. She taught horseback riding lessons to kids and grew up owning one hundred free range hens. She grew up with family dogs as well. She has experience with zoo animals and reptiles having completed the Animal Care Program at Sheridan College. She also used to volunteer grooming at the SPCA in Hamilton as well. Corey grew up with dogs in his house his whole life. His favorite breed is Boxer, but he loves all breeds. Corey is very active. He does CrossFit and soccer and loves to run, but he prefers to do so with the company of a pooch, big or small. One day we hope to move to Texas to rescue dogs as there is a bad crisis of overpopulation there. We are also learning Spanish, this way when the funding is there we plan to drive down to Mexico to assist with the overpopulation of dogs and educating people about the importance of spaying/neutering their pets. Corey’s parents own three of the dogs we fostered in the past from Texas. We were both shift workers so we are happy to do crazy drop off/pick up times, being available 24/7 for those on night shifts! Give us a chance and we will do what we can to accommodate your pet! :) Big or small we love them all! #nodogleftbehind #spayandneuter #adoptdontshop Robyn is usually home all day as she works from home stepping out every so often for a quick appointment. Corey is home every evening/night and usually does evening walks/feeding. We have a large 6.5 ft solid wooden fenced in yard with patio stones, straw and wood chips to avoid mud! Concrete around the edges to avoid any escaping. Three of our dogs are well socialized and love to play! The other two we keep separate. We have a "cat room" and when the dogs are outside playing the cats roam the home! We rotate dogs/cats all day long when they stay with us to make sure everyone gets an adequate time to play/nap. Our dogs are crate trained but if your dog is well trained we can let them roam the home at night while ours sleep in the "doggie room".

About: I’ve always grown up with animals. My family currently has 2 cats and one pug. I usually feed and walk the dog. There is lots of room for play time and walks! We have a fenced yard. *Update* Our beloved pug, Milo, who is seen in my profile pictures, has recently passed away on June 3rd, so it’s been quite devastating. His passing really prompted me to do more Rover gigs because I miss having a doggo around.. Currently, I work from home, so i’m available anytime! I mainly do many house sittings, and can offer lots of love and cuddles before, during and after work. Rest assured your pet, they would be spoiled with love and so much affection.. I have a spacious home. The home has a large fenced yard for your doggo to play with no issues: I am also pretty flexible and can stay at your place, just so your fur baby is comfy. We can most definitely accommodate to dogs, since we are in a backsplit home, with a fenced yard. I have a cat named Niko. Niko is pretty good with other dogs, as Milo lived with us. He mostly hangout in the basement, where it is cooler and also he is very shy and timid and prefers that.

About: I’ve spent the past few years helping care for dogs for friends, family, and people in my community. I genuinely love being around dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy on their walks. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, and I always follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding routines, leash preferences, exercise needs, and any special care requests. I enjoy long walks, outdoor activity, and giving dogs plenty of attention and positive interaction. I’m comfortable with different energy levels and personalities, from playful dogs who love exercise to calmer dogs who prefer a slower pace. I also make communication a priority and can provide updates and photos during walks so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. I currently have a flexible weekday schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting during most weekdays, including afternoons and evenings. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I make it a priority to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, energy level, and any special instructions so they feel secure and well cared for. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure pets have fresh water, attention, exercise, and a calm environment. During walks, I stay alert, use secure leashing practices, and avoid unsafe situations or overly crowded areas when needed. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to animal behaviour, and I believe building trust with both pets and owners is important. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.

About: If you’re in need of top-notch care for your beloved pets, you’ve come to the right place. I’m passionate about all animals and cherish the moments I’m able to spend with them. I’ve had pets my whole life and love taking care of them, we had a potbelly pig growing up and I had a Chihuahua for 13 years and now have Coco the Cockapoo. You can rely on me for loving and caring for your pet. I would love to meet you and your pets before booking so that you you have the opportunity to get to know me and I become acquainted with your pet. My most important concern is that your pets feel safe and cared for and the parents truly feel that I’m dependable, reliable and a honest human being. Rest assured I prioritize the well being and happiness of your pets above all else. I’m on ODSP and not working other than dog sitting or cat sitting. I’m available any time that you need me to look after your pets I have a fully fenced school right near me I can take them or if it’s in your home I will take them on walks or to the dog park if you want.

About: I have working experience as a house sitter with multiple animals with special needs. I excel at providing high quality care, attention to detail, and loving companionship while you are away from your loved ones. I work full time and am available evenings and weekends upon request, depending on availability. I would love to help on short notice if possible! I am not able to offer services in my home, but do have a vehicle evenings and weekends, can stay overnight in home with animals as needed, with request from clients, depending on availability.

About: I come from Ecuador where having a dog as part of the family is very common - so as a dog-lover here in Port Colborne, I am happy to provide the wise loving care you want for your pup. I have a sweet female 2-year-old golden doodle who is totally part of my family. I’d welcome your dog, too - whether it’s for a walk, a day-long play date, or a sleep over. When caring for pets, I feed them, give them fresh water, walk or play with them, and clean up after them. I make sure they're comfortable and happy.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life through my family for thirty-three years and cats for twenty-five. Two years ago I adopted my first dog and greatest friend in life, a Golden Retriever named Chewie! Twelve years ago I initially fostered but later adopted two Bombay cats I named Luke and Leia. Luke passed away in 2020 but Leia is still as young as ever at twelve years old! I’m currently looking to make a career change from human services into animal care and seek further knowledge of animals to further my passion for animals! I have a fenced yard for my two year old Golden Retriever so he can roam the yard and do his business as he pleases.

“Eileen and Our golden became instant friends. It’s so evident that Eileen is a true pet lover. She’s kind, gentle and enjoys what she does. We were so impressed we’ve already booked her services for an upcoming dog sit.”

About: I’ve had/taken care of many different types of dogs/cats for as long as I can remember! I grew up with alot of animals in the house and currently have 4 dogs & 3 cats at home! I just moved back to Niagara and I’m looking to hangout with some cats and/or walk some pups in my downtime to get them and myself outside a bit! I usually live in a van fulltime so I can’t take animals into my home but I’d love to come take them for a walk to get out during the day!

About: Are you looking for someone who will provide quality care and love your pet as much as you do? Look no further! I've been born and raised with multiple animals varying in breeds and sizes my entire life! I am a kind, caring, hard working professional that lives independently. I currently have one small dog of my own, he is neutered and up to date on vaccinations. At your request, I am able to provide alternate arrangements for him should your pet need solo care. I would love the opportunity to spend time with your pet to fulfill your needs and my own love for animals! You are guaranteed a genuine, kind, wholehearted animal lover who will provide exceptional care, love, affection, attention, and a comfortable living environment. I currently live in a three-story two bedroom townhouse on my own. While your pet is with me, they will be my number one priority! I'm more than happy to share my bed for cuddles at night, or maintain your routine of sleeping in a dog crate or any other special requests. I am directly across the street from a park, which ensures your pet will receive quality exercise in a beautiful environment that provides flexibility for either independence or socialization along our route. My career as a social worker speaks to my kind, compassionate, attentive nature. Whether your pet needs a lap to sit on, or someone to play fetch with… I am sure you will feel confident leaving your loved one in my hands... they may love it so much they don't want to leave! I work a balance of both in office and from my home. My office is only 15 minutes from my home which allows for easy lunch walks and minimal alone time. I have a small dog as a companion for your fur baby, or if preferred, he can be housed elsewhere. Your pet will be safe and secure in my townhome and only outside on leash. I am a confident dog walker and live in a safe neighbourhood across from a park.

About: PET CARE EXPERIENCE I’ve been around animals my whole life — from dogs to hamsters, rabbits, birds, reptiles, and cats — and have cared for many different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with gentle handling, enclosure cleaning, basic feeding routines, and adjusting care to each pet’s energy, behavior, and routine. I genuinely enjoy learning each animal’s quirks and tailoring my care to help them feel safe, stimulated, and happy. With dogs, I like to incorporate mental enrichment through games and basic trick training — but only if you’re comfortable with it. I use hand gestures paired with verbal cues for clear, positive communication. Some fun commands I’ve worked on include: • “Statue” – freeze in place • “Quiet” – settle and stay calm • “Kiss” – stand still and allow a gentle kiss on the top of the pup’s head • “Out” / “Get your toy” / “In” – for toy retrieval and clean-up routines I previously offered in-home boarding but now focus solely on caring for pets in their own homes. That experience taught me how to manage routines, monitor behavior, and adapt to each pet’s unique needs with patience and care. After taking a break from pet sitting, I’m reopening my availability and excited to welcome new clients again. I’ve worked with pet parents through Rover and personal referrals, and I’m committed to providing dependable, respectful care. I’m currently self-employed and doing flexible gig work, which gives me the availability to prioritize pet care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to match your pet’s needs. Whether your pet is energetic or reserved, I follow their routine, respect their personality, and ensure they feel safe, mentally engaged, and cared for while you’re away. SCHEDULE I’m currently self-employed and doing flexible gig work, which allows me to fit pet care smoothly into my weekly routine. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and can adjust my schedule to match your pet’s needs. Since I don’t work a traditional 9–5, I can provide attentive, reliable care — whether that’s multiple visits per day or overnight stays in your home. Your pet will always have someone calm, present, and focused on their comfort and routine. SAFETY, TRUST & ENVIRONMENT I currently provide pet care in my clients’ homes, which allows pets to stay relaxed and comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow your routines closely — from feeding and walks to playtime and downtime — so your pet feels secure and well cared for while you’re away. I used to offer boarding in my home and have experience creating safe, calm spaces for pets. While I no longer board animals at my own residence, that experience taught me how to manage routines, monitor behavior, and respond to each pet’s unique needs with patience and care. I take pet care seriously and treat every home with respect — I’m clean, mindful of your space, and always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness.
