Dog Walkers in Hantsport

“Emma only came for a meet and greet. Marley took to her very quickly. I will be using Emma in the future:)”

About: I’ve had dogs in my house for over 10 years, as well as cats. I’m a big animal person and I also have experience on farms and with horses. I have a fairly flexible work schedule depending on the week, and I am available all evenings and most mornings, as well as on weekends. I treat all pets as if they were my own and respect clients' requests and needs for their pets. If I’m unsure of a situation I’d much rather ask the owner than assume! I also am happy to send daily updates and photos of your pets throughout my stay.

“Kat was wonderful, and my dog loved her from the moment she knocked on the door. I certainly lucked out finding Kat and would love to have you walk Tofu again. 🙂”

“I’ve seen Sue strap on snowshoes to walk the dog because the snow was so high. In a word dedicated. I know she spoils my pets-they love her.”

“Love the pictures I get on my doggos walk adventures! Great to know he’s getting the exercise he needs when I’m at work”

“I have known Richard for several years. He has always been an animal lover. He treats my dog and cat as if they were his own and they are always overjoyed to see him. He always pays attention to other people’s pets and spoils his own.”

About: I have had the pleasure of having dogs of all ages a part of my family. As a teen, I took part in training my family’s two golden doodles at the ages. Recently I welcomed my first dog of my own to the family this past fall. My now 6 month old golden retriever is developing to an obedient, playful and energetic teenager. I hope you give me the please of providing the same care to your babies! I do live a busy lifestyle, and currently am working rotational shift work. Unfortunately that means I’m not the best fit for a typical Monday-Friday. However I have the advantage of several consecutive days away from work in a row. If you have any specific dates you’re looking for a sitter, dog walking, or playdates with my golden please do not hesitate to reach out. I have a big (non-fenced in) back yard, and located next to walking trails through Wolfville. Our dog is crate trained in our home, and if you would like the same for yours, we can make that happen.

“I am happy to recommend Carlene as a house and pet sitter. We were away for 10 days in February, and living in rural Prince Edward Island, our winters can be rough with blizzards and, on occasion, days-long power outages. Carlene’s calm manner and background as a wilderness guide made me feel completely confident that she could deal with anything should it arise. We left her with two dogs and two cats. One of the dogs, Ruthie, was recovering from a health problem and required medication and a special diet. Ruthie loves her food and especially the food of the other dog, who is a picky eater, so Carlene had to manage that situation. The dogs are both young and active and Carlene took them on daily hikes. Judging by photos of them curled up cuddling on either side of Carlene, they were kept tired and happy. As an unexpected bonus, we arrived home to a sparkling clean house, with thriving plants, a freshly made bed, a note detailing their adventures, and even a delicious soup ready for our dinner. Carlene is a lovely and interesting person with an obvious love of animals and nature. I always find it nerve-wracking to plan our animals’ care when we go away and am so glad to have found her. I would not hesitate to ask Carlene to house and petsit another time, knowing that I could enjoy myself without worry.”

“I would recommend Rhi as a dog walker or pet sitter because she listens carefully to what pet owners say about their animals. She has extensive experience in having her own dogs - and cats! She has been loving and patient with them - even when dealing with unexpected (and often funny) quirks in behavior. She would take excellent care of any animal.”

“I had the pleasure of spending a week with Quinn as we completed a volunteer trip to benefit the pets of San Cristobal Island, Ecuador. I am a field service veterinary with World Vets a nonprofit that provides veterinary care to underserved parts of the world. As a result, I have the opportunity to observe people as they interact with both pets and their owners. I watched as Quinn cared for a variety of pets when they were coming in for care, the dogs and cats, as well as their owners, were in a vulnerable state as they were trusting a group of volunteers unknown to them with their pet companions. Quinn has a quiet quality of calmness about him and a deep sense of duty to pets. It is obvious through his interactions with both the owners and their pets that he has a love of animals and a reverence for the bond between pets and their humans. Owners were immediately put at ease as Quinns' smile and gentle nature gave them confidence that their pets would be treated with the utmost care while in our field hospital. I highly recommend Quinn to any pet owner who is looking for a gentle, kind soul to care for their furbaby. You would be lucky to have Quinn as your companion's caregiver.”

“I am writing to recommend Kendra for her exceptional pet care skills. I have known Kendra for several years, and I can confidently say that she is one of the most responsible and loving pet caregivers I have ever met. Kendra is passionate about animals and takes her role as a pet caregiver very seriously. She has a natural ability to connect with pets and make them feel loved and cared for. She has an intuitive sense of what they need, and she always goes above and beyond to ensure their wellbeing. Kendra is also highly responsible when it comes to taking care of pets. She understands that pets are a significant responsibility and require a great deal of attention and care. She is always punctual with feeding and walking schedules and ensures that they receive the necessary medical attention when needed. Additionally, she is proactive in identifying potential health issues and seeks professional help immediately. I have personally seen how Kendra treats her own dogs, and it is evident that they are happy, healthy, and content under her care. She always prioritizes their comfort and happiness, and her commitment to their well-being is unwavering. In conclusion, I highly recommend Kendra as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. She has a natural ability to connect with animals, and her dedication and commitment to their well-being make her an excellent choice for any pet owner. Sincerely, Katia”

“Good day to whom ever is reading this. I have known Alexandra for 8+ years and think very highly of her. We are an animal family and think of our fur babies as family, Alexandra has looked after both our fur babies and home and is very responsible, trustworthy and dependable. She has her own fur babies, small and large and is a loving pet owner. I highly recommend Alexandra to care for your pets, she will watch them carefully and provide a loving playful environment doing so.”

“Absolutely amazing, very friendly and sweet my puppy took right to her and was very happy after her walk! She even withheld a treat from a stranger until she had my permission to give it to my puppy, very very happy with kaylee's service today. Definitely recommend”

“My dog is very excitable but she was comfortable with Lyne right away, and relaxed and rolled over to be petted. She had a good time on her walk and was tired after meeting a new friend! Thanks Lyne!”

“Sarah has been an integral part of our pet care for several years now. She has cared for both our dogs and cats in our home. A qualified vet assistant, she portrays a confident and very calm manner around all our animals and has experience with extra large and small breeds alike. One of our dogs has hip dysplasia and has received exceptional care. The best thing about Sarah is that our pets are treated as if they are her own. No love or effort is spared. Thank you Sarah !”

“Julia is a very compassionate person who loves animals. She studied in a veterinary program in college and continue to look for ways to interact with animals. She has some of her own, and walks friends dogs in the neighborhood when they are too busy with work. Julia loves animals and she would be a fantastic fit!”

“Kate was fantastic I needed her very last minute and she was able to come take Bailey. He suffers with separation anxiety and it was a life saver having her come. She went above and beyond my expectations. Very thankful and I would highly recommend. Thank you !!”

“Lynsey was on time for the appointment and my dog came back from her walk very happy.”

“Jessica is a very responsible, fun loving dog person! You can tell just how much she cares for each dog, making sure that they feel right at home in her living space. Jessica loves taking the dogs for walks in the park and on hiking trails, bringing along a ball for fun. Jessica is very able to meet all needs for any dog, having had experience giving medicine orally and in the ears of dogs, dealing with the cone and different surgeries, and also dealing with bad separation anxiety issues. Jessica would be an absolutely perfect fit for dogs that are big, small, strong on the leash, or old. She's dealt with a large variety of dogs in the past, and is very much able to adapt to any situation.”
