Dog Boarding in Magrath

“In the beginning we were nervous about getting a dog sitter for our girl. But Brigitte was amazing! She helped me feel comfortable at the drop off and she kept me updated on our girl throughout the entire sitting. Inside her home was clean and the outside was clean and safe as well. Our dog, who is an only pet, came home happy and tired. She napped the day away and I'm sure she was dreaming about her new friends at Brigitte's place. Thank you Brigitte and family, we will most definitely be returning our business to you!”

“Kimberley was a great sitter. She was amenable and friendly. Took our dog on walks and kept him entertained and satisfied while we were away. Will definitely use her again if the occasion arises in the future.”

“Adelle took great care of my dog Nora, who was wearing a surgical cone at the time and had stitches in her leg. Not only did Adelle take Nora in with little notice but she also had no issues keeping Nora for an extra 12 hours when my return flight was delayed. I received daily updates, pictures and videos of Nora and I could tell she was having a great time. Adelle is very communicative and kind, would definitely recommend her. Will use again.”

“If you're searching for someone who will care for your dog as if it were their own, look no further than Trudy. She exceeded all expectations while looking after Maverick. Trudy's dedication and genuine love for animals shine through in every interaction. Maverick was not just looked after; he was pampered. Trudy ensured he felt safe, comfortable, and loved throughout his stay. I highly recommend Trudy to anyone seeking a dog sitter who goes above and beyond in caring for furry family members.”

“Austin was able to take Mr. Odiez over night with little to actually no notice at all. I was left in a pickle and Austin came to the rescue right away! He offered to pick up Odes because I was out of town and made sure he wasn’t lonely and got lots of snuggs, and treats that he provided himself! Austin really went above and beyond. I am so greatful to have had such a rad human to watch my furr son!! Thanks again 🙏🏼”

“Hoover had a great time with Ivan and it was awesome to follow his adventures on Instagram. Ivan was very accommodating to us for dropping off and picking up as our flight times were early in the morning and at night. We highly recommend Ivan and would definitely have Hoover stay with him again if we go on another trip.”

About: I am skilled to have an unbiased approach to all pets - reactive or “scary”, exuberant or timid, old and tired or young and inexperienced. I love getting to know them thoroughly and personally, the unique individual every animal is. Each dog (and cat) have their complex story and needs, and I’m here to satisfy those needs above “good enough”. Ever since I could hold a book, I was keen on animal behaviour and husbandry. Today, I feel at home and most fulfilled when I’m training, handling and caring for dogs, cats and other critters. I build my life around animals, because they tremendously enrich mine! With extensive canine/feline body language understanding allowing me to train and compete with my own dog, I can quickly find the most fulfilling and effective way to occupy your pets’ brain for the time they are in my care. I won’t just blindly check off the food-water-potty boxes, I will ensure your beloved companion has had a productive visit making for an enriched and content animal for the rest of the day. With dogs, I like to engage their mind with various games and challenges easily infused into their daily routine, such as scent games all dogs adore, confidence building exercises, trick training for loads of fun and more. Cats aren’t an exception - I always like to get all kitties to play, as felines are one of the only mammals that hunt recreationally. Even the most “unplayful” cat is curious with me around - I am to discover their more unique ways of play. I spend my days training and exploring with my show/performance dog, working part time and attending university part time! This results in a pretty light schedule and I am available almost every day throughout points in the first half of the day during school time and almost every evening after that. I’m not stranger to late hours as I work graves. Regardless of the schedule, I will always try to accommodate as best as time allows. I worked as a salesperson/nutritional advisor at a local pet-store and I take pet dietary requirements very seriously - you can always be worry-free about your raw food schedule being followed, proper quantity of weight management kibble selected exactly at times you wish and all the other dietary needs kept up with. I am now pursuing an apprenticeship in companion dog training, and starting on a path of certified trainer. I am all about soul-based training and lots of short and sweet training sessions that are a part of a balanced, stimulating day for a dog; I stand by mental exercise, puzzles and creative training that lays obedience foundations for both puppies and older dogs needing a push in training. I believe in realizing every dog’s potential and genetic desires to chase, herd, retrieve or dig - rest assured that your dog will receive individual, interest- and breed specific care. Whether it be puppy crate training or senior snuggles and a gentle walk, I love to exercise and enrich dog’s lives in a way that fosters confidence, engagement and fun. I want to hear all about to your precious companion and which activities, food and exercise they thrive on best, and provide you with feedback on training, possible unmet needs, and activities completed. I pride myself in open and fast communication. When the matter is your dearest four-legged family member, I understand the worry like no other. You will not have shortage of photos, detailed descriptions and reports during and at the end of my services. I want to make sure you have a peace of mind that your dog or cat will have the best day ever.

“Janet and her family took great care of Miles. He had so much fun playing with her dogs, he came home of a very happy boy! She was great to communicate with too”

About: Hi! I have been dog sitting for two years and I’ve sat more than 30 dogs while working from home. My partner and I have our own rescue baby, a three year old pup named Rumour, and I have a dog back home, a now old boy, named Mocha. My sister has a bearded dragon rescue named Ben who I consider my niece and we're pretty sure she (the lizard) hates us, but we love her regardless. We're both more fond of pets than we are of people and we'd love to host your pets when you're away. We'll make sure to give them plenty of yard time and attention so they don't miss you too much, and cater to any food/walk requirements they may have. My girl is good with other animals and is allowed free access anywhere in the house or yard, but if your pets have a no bed/no couch/no off-leash rules we can help reinforce that! 

We have a 2 bedroom on the first floor of a landed home, a big yard for the dogs to run around and plenty of room and enrichment toys for cats and dogs inside the house. I do shift work or work from home and my partner goes in about 2 days in the week so at least one of us is always available at home to provide constant supervision! 

We have taken care of puppies and senior dogs as well, and I can administer oral medication and prepare home cooked food if required. My partner has been cat-sitting for about 6 months and we both volunteer at the cat-shelter once every week. We also have a car and a dog safety seat belt in case your pet needs to be picked up or needs the vet, or if they just like car rides! We can't wait to meet your babies ♥️ I work remotely as a designer and I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to cater to any kind of walking/feeding schedule that a pet might need I have the time and energy to keep an eye on your baby and adhere to any safety/health precautions you have set up in your home

About: Hello! I am a dog lover and have a Pomchi of my own, Ollie. He looks like an oreo! Your dog(s) will be in the best care, provided with lots of attention and walks:).

If you want any further information, please feel free to get in touch with me. I look forward to hearing from you, and meeting you and your dog(s)!
