Dog Walkers in Gananoque

“Mikaela is the best! She is reliable, trustworthy, friendly, kind, and is great with our dogs!! She takes the time to get to know your dog which was really helpful for us and our 8 yr old stubborn terrier. Her background and experience in animal care is an added bonus.”

About: I can still remember getting my first pup when I was around 5 years old. He was a lot a work! But that didn't stop me. I have had experience with a variety of breeds and ages. I started working for a dog walking/sitting company and from then I went on to get my Veterinarian Assistant Certificate. I was an Animal Control Officer for 3 years and now currently work in a Animal Shelter environment on most weekends. From walking to feeding to bathing to giving medications and of course lots of love you can trust your dog with me. I'm currently at home during the week with my two children, (2.5 & 4) and work every other weekend. Pet care in my home would be from Monday- Friday, time and amount of days is flexible. Also could fit in a few weekends here and there if needed. I have a large partially fenced in yard. However, for safety I would prefer not to let your dog off leash and most likely do more walks. I have a 2.5 year old daughter and a small dog to keep your pup company. They are excellent in playing but also love their cuddles and comfort. I am also okay to crate your dog if need be.

About: I've been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends since I was 16, caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra attention. I'm comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions to help keep pets happy, healthy, and on their normal routine. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and give owners peace of mind knowing their pet is in good hands. I'm partially retired and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. As a former dog mom, I miss the companionship, walks, joy and love that dogs bring to everyday life, which is what inspired me to join Rover. Whether your dog needs a walk, company during the day, or extra attention while you're away, I'm able to provide reliable care and accommodate a variety of schedules. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and look forward to making them feel safe and comfortable. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding routines, feeding, medications, and any special needs. During walks, I pay close attention to my surroundings and your dog's comfort level to help ensure a safe and positive experience. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to build trust at their pace. My goal is to provide consistent, dependable care so both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old, from puppies to seniors, I love working with all dogs!! I've trained puppies and have experience giving dogs medications, walks, etc. :) I work from home full-time so I am able to give your dog a supervised, comfortable, and fun and environment to spend time in while you are out & about living life! I have a fenced in backyard as well as two friendly dogs of my own, which can keep your furry friend company throughout the day. I am available anytime of day and would be so honoured to take care of your loved ones.

“As always, Thomas did a great job! It's so nice to be away from home and not worry about whether our dog will be walked and taken good care of 😊.”

About: I am Pet First Aid certified and certified through Fear Free’s Shelter Program and Boarding & Daycare Program, which trained me to recognize fear, anxiety, stress signals, arousal levels, body language, and environmental triggers. I grew up in a dog friendly family and spent 12 years caring for my family dog, including her current senior stage care. My Life Sciences and Biomedical Science background also makes me detail-oriented and observant with changes in behaviour, comfort, and well-being. During walks, I focus on secure handling, safe routes, calm interactions, and adapting the walk to each dog’s temperament, age, and energy level. My goal is to provide reliable, low-stress dog walking that owners can trust. I am currently in my summer break (May-Sept). while writing up my research paper draft, I will be flexible with my schedule 7 days a week 6:00am-10:00pm for dog walking. I have full G license with my own vehicle. For dog walking, I focus on safety, consistency, and calm handling. Before each walk, I confirm the dog’s routine, leash or harness setup, energy level, triggers, and any special instructions. I also apply what I learned from Fear Free shelter and boarding/daycare training by paying close attention to body language, fear-anxiety-stress signals, arousal level, thresholds, and environmental triggers. I check that equipment is secure, choose safe routes, avoid unnecessary dog to dog interactions, and adjust the pace to the dog’s comfort level. My goal is to provide a safe, reliable, and low-stress walk while giving owners peace of mind.
