Dog Walking Ingersoll

About: I am fortunate to have experienced the joy, patience, and rewarding challenges of sharing a home with rescue animals. As a rescue dog and cat owner, I don’t just offer pet sitting—I provide practical experience rooted in understanding animal body language, building trust, and maintaining consistent training. Over the years, I have loved, rehabilitated, and trained rescue dogs with a wide variety of backgrounds and personalities. Whether your dog requires positive reinforcement training, structured routine, or extra patience due to reactivity or shyness, I can help create a calm, secure environment. My rescue cat experience means I am equally attuned to feline boundaries, knowing exactly when to offer affection and when to give them their space.Now that I am retired, your pet will have my full-time, undivided attention. Because I don't have to juggle a 9-to-5 schedule, I am uniquely positioned to handle last-minute requests and short-notice dog walks. My goal is to be your most reliable backup, allowing you to confidently say "yes" to those spur-of-the-moment plans, late meetings, or weekend getaways, knowing your pet is in experienced, loving hands.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs, and small pets of all ages and temperaments. Pet care is currently my primary focus, so I build my schedule around my clients’ needs. I offer flexible morning and evening walks, drop-ins, and weekend availability. I also provide boarding for both dogs and cats. I carefully manage my calendar to ensure each pet receives my full attention, and I only accept bookings I can confidently commit to. Clear communication and reliability are very important to me. In my home, pets enjoy a fully fenced backyard and a calm, structured environment. I have one very friendly, well-socialized dog who gets along well with both dogs and cats. If needed, I can easily separate pets, as my home has multiple areas to ensure comfort and safety for everyone. I provide clean spaces and multiple cozy pet beds.

“When I arrived home from work my baby puppies were happy.... So pleased that they picked up and gave me their toy. Ellie, that meant in my perspective... mommy made a great decision in choosing you!”

About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life and have had my own cats and dogs as an adult on my own as well. I am certified in the Canadian Red Cross Pet First Aid and CPR. I am very familiar with dog and cat communication and behaviours and how to work with both animals to ensure they are cared for properly. I currently have a cat named Rosie and a dog named Annie. Annie is 2 and loves playing with other dogs. She is fully vaccinated and very friendly. She’ll help burn out the energy of other dogs at the dog park no problem! I have also had experience owning other small household pets as well. Since I have the time and experience, I am looking to assist in helping people find care for their pets while they are at work or away from home. I work retail full-time so my schedule is kind of all over the place, but I’ll try to make your requests work if possible! I have a fully fenced backyard and a large doggy door so that your fur baby will be able to use the door if needed and go outside as they wish to play/ use the bathroom. However, I will also monitor them in case they do not use this doggy door (Annie will show them how to use it!). I am certified by the Canadian Red Cross in Pet First Aid and CPR. I will also send hourly updates from 8 am to 8 pm to send a photo or advise on how your dog is doing and what they are up to. when taking dogs out for walks, I will ensure they are kept off of busy streets and only walk them when the pavement is not too hot for their paws/ grass or trail walks only. If taking dogs to the dog park, I will ensure they are monitored closely to ensure they are in a safe and happy environment without aggressive dogs. I will monitor pets eating and pooping and advise if there are any issues. I will ensure they have enough clean drinking water (we used Brita Filtered water). In the event the dog gets muddy or dirty I can bathe them as well.

About: I’m Jules! A lover of all animals, but dogs have my heart. Just a shift working, dog ADORING gyal with some time on her hands & and a passion for pups. Having 3 dogs of my own (a Dalmatian mix, a poodle mix & a little rescue nugget) there’s nothing I haven’t already handled. My partner is also a dog groomer part time & this has given me lots of exposure with a variety of breeds and temperaments! I work a very flexible part-time shift work schedule - allowing me to be available during most days, weekends, afternoons but also on nights I’m not working. I have a fully fenced backyard, and two of my three dogs are very friendly & love to play- while my rescue doesn’t quite know how to yet, he much rather prefers to supervise with me.

About: I’ve taken care of Family pets. I am Very Responsible for feeding, walking, playing and enjoying dogs unconditionally. I recognize that animals also need the same love and care that humans require. I am able to take care of your beloved dogs throughout the week and weekends. I am available in the early mornings and early afternoons I make sure to have all food and water available as required. I ensure that the animals are fenced or gated and I provide the proper care and timing for their bathroom schedule.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs my entire life, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of who I am. What sets me apart is my experience caring for pets at every stage of life. I’m especially comfortable with puppies and young, energetic pets as well as senior pets who need extra patience and gentle care. I also enjoy teaching tricks and basic commands using positive reinforcement. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and routine and love making sure they get plenty of play, exercise, attention, and affection. I work full-time and receive my schedule about a month in advance, so I’m able to plan pet care well ahead of time. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting at your home on my scheduled days off or around my work hours. I’m reliable, organized, and happy to coordinate in advance to make sure your pet’s routine is maintained. When caring for your pet in your home, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and following their normal routine. I’m respectful of your home and will carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any other specific needs. I understand that pets often feel most comfortable in their familiar surroundings, and I’ll give them plenty of attention, patience, and companionship while you’re away.

“She is wonderful and reliable. My dogs love hee.”

About: Depuis toute petite, je me suis occupé de mon chat et des animaux de mes parents. En étant plus vieille, j'ai eu l'occasion de m'occuper des chiens de ma sœur. J'ai la passion des animaux dans le sang. J'aimerais faire se travail à temps pleins. Lorsque j'aurai réunis assez d'argents, j'aimerais ouvrir mon propre studio de photographie animalière et faire du pet sitting en plus de cela. Ce serait mon plus grand rêve. Vous pouvez avoir une totale confiance envers moi. Je suis là pour vos chers animaux et pour eux seulement. J'ai toujours eu une connexion profonde envers les animaux, comme si j'étais destinés à les côtoyer. Je veux ce qu'il y a de mieux pour toutes les créatures de la planète. Si je pouvais adopter tout les animaux qui existe, je le ferais sans hésiter.

“Although Nicole and I were not able to complete our days of dog walks, I enjoyed meeting her so much and the one walk my dog had was very successful. We have just been through the worst heat wave I ever remember in Southwestern Ontario, so it was just too hot for my dog and for Nicole to be walking. But we stayed in touch each day and made our decisions together about the extreme weather. I'm only sorry that we did not get to know each other better. I would never hesitate to contact her another time.”
