Dog Walking Markham

About: I love dogs of all sizes and temperaments and will always treat your pup like my own, complete with tons of photo and video updates, as I’m a big photography lover! I own an 8yo Shiba and 4yo Samoyed, cared for a senior Shih Tzu, and have fostered reactive dogs. I'm fully comfortable with training routines, medications, recovery care, and raw or specialized diets for any walks or drop-in visits. Let me know and I can follow any routine! I’m currently working from home, so I can definitely do any walks or drop-ins needed with my schedule! Monday to Friday with some weekends can work - just message me or check my calendar! Safety and proper routine are my top priorities. I weight train 3 times a week and have experience walking high-energy puppies up to big husky/spitz breeds. I’m comfortable using any gear or harness setup your dog requires to ensure secure, happy and controlled walks. During drop-ins, I’m happy to follow exact feeding routines, give oral or topical medications, and leave your home secure before I head out.

“Reliable, responds immediately, responsible, follows instructions and most importantly amazing with dogs! Will always be my first choice when booking pet care.”

“Bernice was great! First time using Rover and she was flexible and easy to communicate with. She invited Zack and I to come and meet her outside her place so we could meet her dog Gala before they went off together. Zack had not eaten that morning and Bernice was kind enough to spoil him by hand feeding him! -I think both were entertained for the day! I have no hesitation in recommending Bernice look after your pet.”

“Henry enjoyed his walk today and went happily with Carmen, despite it being the first time they met. Good to know he also behaved himself on the walk!”

“We could tell when we met her that Dana absolutely loves dogs. She was undeterred when we told her that our 10-year-old Aussie is highly energetic and does not always respond well to other dogs. She showed up reliably every day during the week we were gone, taking him on the full hour walk and even including her children on a couple of outings. The routes we took were varied and we really felt our little guy was getting a chance to work out his endless energy. We highly recommend her.”

About: 🐾 Animal Experience I have over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, including dogs and cats. In my home country, I was actively involved in rescuing and caring for animals in need, helping them recover, rehabilitate, and find safety and comfort again. Through this experience, I have learned how to handle animals with different temperaments, ages, and emotional needs, from shy and anxious pets to very active and social ones. I developed a strong sense of patience, observation, and calm energy when working with animals. This long-term experience has given me the ability to quickly understand each pet’s behavior and respond in a way that makes them feel safe, respected, and cared for. As I am home full-time, I can adapt my daily routine to each dog's individual needs, providing constant companionship, supervision, and personalized care throughout their stay. Mornings: We start the day with a safe, supervised walk around the neighborhood, followed by breakfast and some time to settle in comfortably. During the day: I stay home throughout the day, so dogs are never left alone for long periods. They enjoy supervised playtime in our fully fenced private backyard, along with plenty of indoor companionship, relaxation, and personalized attention. I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for according to their usual routine. Afternoons and evenings: We go for a second walk to help them burn energy and maintain a balanced routine. Afterward, they can relax and enjoy family time indoors. I also send daily photo and video updates so owners can stay connected and have peace of mind while they are away. My Home & Care Policy To provide a safe, calm, and stress-free environment, I only accept dogs. My home features a fully fenced private backyard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time under supervision. We are a quiet, family-oriented household with a smoke-free and alcohol-free environment. My husband is a veterinarian, which reflects our family's love and respect for animals; however, I am the primary caregiver and personally responsible for the daily care and attention of every dog in my home. My goal is for every guest to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and truly at home during their stay. 🐾❤️ 🐾 Safety, Trust & Environment The safety and well-being of every pet is my top priority. I provide a calm, structured, and closely supervised environment where pets are never left unattended and always feel protected and cared for. Trust is built through consistency, patience, and attention to detail. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, routines, and comfort levels so they feel secure and relaxed during their stay. I also offer a clean, smoke-free, and environmentally friendly home with access to a private fenced green yard and nearby parks. This allows pets to enjoy fresh air, nature, and safe outdoor stimulation in a controlled and responsible way. My goal is to create a peaceful balance between safety, trust, and a healthy environment where pets can feel at home, calm, and happy.

About: Mimi and Philip offer pet care services to help owners when they need to travel and can't bring their pets along. Some potential services they may offer include: - Pet boarding - Providing a safe and comfortable place for pets to stay while their owners are away, either in a facility or in a caregiver's home. - Pet sitting - Sending a caregiver to the pet owner's home to look after the pets and ensure they are fed, exercised, and cared for in their own environment. - Dog walking - Sending a dog walker to take the pets out for exercise and bathroom breaks during the day while the owners are away. - Transportation - Offering to pick up and drop off pets at the owner's home or the boarding facility. The key is that Mimi and Philip aim to provide pet owners with reliable, compassionate care for their furry family members when they can't be there themselves. This allows the owners to travel with peace of mind. Mimi & Philip have WFH (Work From Home) arrangements on most days and they’re very flexible with works outside and often they will bring their dogs along if dogs are allowed at their work zones Just a few key requirements for Mimi and Philip's pet boarding or sitting services: 1.

Flea/tick/parasite control: - Pets may need to be on a flea, tick, and parasite prevention medication regimen. - This helps ensure the safety and health of all pets in the boarding or sitting environment. 3. Temperament and behavior: - Pets may need to pass a behavioral assessment or temperament test to ensure they are non-aggressive and able to safely interact with other animals. - Pets with known behavioral issues may have restrictions or require special accommodations. 4. Dietary and medication needs: - Owners may need to provide detailed information about the pet's diet, feeding schedule, and any medication requirements. - The boarding or sitting service may need to be able to accommodate special dietary needs or administer medications as prescribed. 5. Emergency contact information: - Owners will likely need to provide multiple emergency contacts and authorize the caregiver to seek veterinary care if needed. 6.

“Jiaqi was absolutely wonderful! She was so nice, helpful, and accommodating throughout the entire process. She was very polite and friendly during the meet and greet, which immediately made me feel comfortable leaving my little dog in her care. She was incredibly caring, gentle, and attentive to my little dog, and I could tell she genuinely cares about animals. I really appreciated how thoughtful and flexible she was. I would highly recommend Jiaqi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and I would definitely book with her again!”

“Po Ching is an excellent dog walker! He was very thorough, listened carefully to all my instructions, and handled my dog incredibly well. My dog pulls very hard, can be stubborn, and stalls, but he handled him confidently and firm which is exactly what I needed. He is a patient man and I’m glad I have found someone to regularly to walk my dog :)”

“Cayally was very punctual and we appreciate the time she spent with Bear to take him on his walk. We will continue to connect with her for future walks.”

About: I participated in caring for my family dog for her entire life from puppy-hood. My first dog-sitting job was a senior pug. He required lots of special care and attention. I’m confident that I can provide the same quality of care to any pet! I’m self-employed and work from home, so I have lots of flexibility to spend time with pets during the week and weekends. I’m typically a home-body, so I’m very happy to spend time with pets in my care! I think that attention, stimulation, and play are all so important for animals. It’s a mission in my home to keep my cats busy and keep their brains engaged. Whether it’s toys, treat puzzles, interactive games, I want their lives to be enriched!
