“Nikol was very pleasant and quick to return messages. I was kept updated as to how our dog was acclimating which made leaving him less stressful. Nice property set back in the woods which is great for walking. Very accommodating for drop off and pick up times. We will use Nikol’s services again!”

“Tucker came home happy and tired. We needed a get-away and he needed to play with another dog. We all ended up happy! Deborah made Tuck very welcome and her relaxed manner reassured me that she and Tucker would get along fine. I am so happy we found her!”

About: I have owned and lived with dogs, and cats for the past 10 years. My current dog is high energy and we'll titled. I'm happy to work with puppies, and provide a little anxiety relief to your pets. Looking for someone to take your dog out while your on a long shift, longer walks than your able, or social/training enriched walks, I'm able to help. I grew up on a hobby farm and am more then happy to spend time with ducks, chickens, rabbits etc. I currently work full time from home, if you have wifi I can be there all day. I have a dog as well, he can come for social play dates, or stay home. For longer stay, my furbaby can come along for doggy socialization or I can alternate on a plan that works for both of us. Dogs love routine, keeping to their routine is safest. I practice positive reinforcement for pets. For dogs who pull on walks ii prefer a harness, it's safer for us and them, and have plenty of dual clip leashes to work on heeling with them.

About: I lived on a farm with plenty of animals all my life until recently. Animal chores were apart of my daily routine and I loved every minute of it. Before my studies begin in September I am available full time to provide services for varying animals. I have experience boarding, dog walking and providing drop in care. I would love to get to know your furry friend and provide the best care possible to ease your mind while you are away from home! I am currently off for the summer so I am available 7 days a week to provide pet care until I return to school in September. I have a 5 year old daughter who loves to spend time with animals. We go on frequent walks to occupy our time and would love to take your pet with us!

About: I grew up in a horse farm, and have tonnes of years of experience dog and horse farm sitting for many years. I have experience with rescue horses and dogs as well. I love being outdoors and going for walks and hikes. I work from home and I have my dog, Ty. I take hike for at least 3 walks a day, and have a small fenced in yard. They have free-range of the house, small fenced in yard, and I do have the ability to seperate dogs for feeding/sleeping if that is a concern. My dog is not food aggressive but I know many can be. There is room for a crate, although I do not provide one as my dog doesnt use them.

“Katie is a great pack leader. Tuple had a great time and is happily exhausted. I love that Katie sends updates both videos and photos. I feel confident in the care that she provides my fur baby.”

About: I grew up with many pets in my house - 3 dogs and 2 cats! I went for daily walks with the dogs in my local ravine growing up. Each dog having it's own very unique personality and quirks provided me with a breadth of experience. I believe obedience and rules are the foundation of a well behaved dog. As well, a well exercised dog is a well behaved dog. Structure is very important and I will always make a dog work for their treat. I try to continue any on-going training for the dogs I am walking or sitting. I was finally able to get my own dog as an adult - who I have had since 2021. I rescued my dog, Arlo, when he was ~4 months, and have given him a loving home since! I worked with a trainer when I got to him and learned a lot about dog (and human) behaviours. I am home during the days with a flexible schedule, so walks at any time of the day can work. Generally a morning, lunchtime, or late afternoon walk are the preferred times. I currently have daily mid-day regulars that I walk. Depending on the dogs personality and suitability with other dogs, I walk with a pack or individually. If a dog is staying with me, I take them on a walk first thing if their owner hasn't already done so. This way, they are starting on the best foot forward. I have a dog at home, so I do an intro of the dogs on 'neutral' territory, there is a laneway and Bruce trail across from so I ask that their owner does a quick walk with the dogs and myself. I do potty breaks every 0-2 hours, either to go on a short walk, or ball throw. I also do 5-10 minute training sessions to keep the dogs entertained and stimulated. I also ask that the dogs bed and an article of clothing of the owners comes with them, so they have a space that is their own and familiar. This will help the dog settle in. Favourite toys or treats are also recommended.

About: Enjoy dogs with lots of energy or old dogs that need that extra care. I have a large backyard & close to local walking trails Monday to Friday. Weekends will be determined based on schedule. All care will be done in my home. Hope to see you soon all you puppers! We have an invisible fence (collar required) but have a big backyard for leashed walks and potty time. Local trails are also close to the house.

“Ashley was so great with my dog Cas! I had a late cancellation and needed a sitter fast! Ashley replied right away! she kept me updated on my dog while he was in her care, which was a huge relief to me. I’ve never left my dog with anyone but family before and I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog will be with her and her furry babies all day! I completely recommend her as your fur baby’s sitter. If you’re looking for kind, knowledgeable and a supportive caretaker and friend for your furry family member than look no further than this Great gal!”

About: My name is Hannah T. and I have been working in pet care for over eight years now. I previously volunteered and worked at my local dog shelter walking and attending to the dogs in need. I have done dog sitting on numerous occasions for numerous clients who have nothing but positive things to say. I put a lot of effort into my volunteer work at the shelter and have worked with some of the most difficult dogs on the market, turning them around to be loving and adoptable pets in new homes. I am one of the biggest dog people I know, this is known to everyone around me and I promise to love your pet maybe even a bit more than you do. What can I say? I love their fluffy, loving, energy. I am a kindergarten teacher who works locally in our community. I am available before and after hours (8am -4pm) as well as weekends :) Our yard is not fenced but our furry friend Remmy (who loves every friend he meets) is accustomed to two large hikes a day! Your furry friend will have full access to our loving home full of dog beds and treats.
