Dog Boarding Minto

“Sarah and her girls took amazing care of Archie while we were in Mexico for a week. She was responsive and communicated well, sending pictures and updates throughout our trip so we had peace of mind knowing he was having a great time and being treated as part of her family. Archie requires medication which was administered appropriately, and he ate well throughout his stay. He also loved taking walks along the trails near her home. Thank you again for everything!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Growing up with my little dog Lacey from the age of 8 is what first made me fall in love with having a dog of my own. I was also lucky enough to be a dog mom for many years and he brought so much love and joy into our lives! Over the years, I’ve cared for friends’ pets, both dogs and cats, ranging from large breeds to small, as well as small animals such as bunnies! I have lots of experience with pets including walks, feeding, brushing, active play, and of course, plenty of cuddles on the couch. As a current cat owner, I’ve also gained experience caring for senior pets and understand that they may need a little extra patience, attention, and care with their daily routines and individual needs. More recently, I’ve had the opportunity to foster a puppy, which I’ve found incredibly fulfilling and rewarding. I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and helping them feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. Whether your pet needs a good walk, some playtime, a little extra patience, or simply a cozy companion to curl up with, I’ll care for them with the same love and attention I give my own. I look forward to getting to know your furbabies! 🐾🤍 Since I work a hybrid position, my schedule can be somewhat flexible so please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions regarding availability or if it lies outside the currently listed availability. My main availability will be in the evenings after 5pm but I’m not limited to that so feel free to ask. Weekend availability would be flexible with afternoon being favourable. I offer secure and friendly drop-in services at your home, interactive and fun walks for your furbabies, and cat sitting. I also offer dog boarding in my home, where there’s lots of space for your doggo to relax, play, and feel right at home. 🐾 I’ll treat your furry family members with the same love and care I give my own. Please reach out with any questions!

“Carey was amazing with my dog Blue. I highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again in the future. She provided me with photo updates of my dog throughout his stay and he looked happy as ever. 5 stars!”

About: Hi! I have had cats and/dogs in my home since I was 2. I have a big heart and plenty of patience. I have experiences with feeding, walking, cleaning, washing, adhearing to explicit vet instructions for medical needs, reactive personalities, practicing training, being gentle where needed and playing with animals. I am away from home from 8:00am-4:30pm on week days for work. I am unavailable for active care during that time unless for example, this includes a cat who can thrive independently while I am away for the day. At my home, I have yard in the back and lots of neighbourhoods to walk through. Inside my home I have the space to care based on a mutually agreed-upon plan of care. I live in an apartment and it is a nice quiet space. If care involves boarding with me, I would currently prefer you send your own supplies per the needs of your pet(s) (bowls, food, treats, litter/litter box/puppy pads/poop baggies, leash, toys, and other). If at a clients home, I am respectful, a great listener to the needs of the pets, the preferences of the household and am great at communicating when facilitating active care.

“Highly recommend Natalie. Took exceptional care and attention of our dog over our 10 day vacation. Super communication and photos throughout. Would not hesitate to use Natalie again.”

“Leah and Steven were great. Ruby came home and was exhausted from all the play during her stay. Thank you Leah and Steven. I will for sure be requesting another stay in the future.”

“Nikol is absolutely amazing! I know how much my dog 'Buddy' enjoyed his time at her home because he was so excited when we picked him up... but exhausted on the way home. I was told he ran around and played with her dog all day. I really appreciated the messages and photos from Nikol about what he got up to, it made me feel so comfortable leaving him for the day! Would definitely book her again and highly recommend her.”

“Sandra was absolutely wonderful with Margot! She took incredible care of her, including taking her on a great walk and perfectly handling her insulin routine. It gave us total peace of mind knowing Margot was in such responsible, caring hands. Highly recommend Sandra to anyone looking for a top-notch sitter!”

“Charlie had his first stay with Donna last weekend. He had a fantastic time playing with Lucy, Donna’s dog. I got updates on how he’s doing as I asked for them and I could tell that Donna sincerely cared about him and wanted him to feel at home. He adored her daughter too and was her constant companion. Charlie will definitely be back!”

“Kim is a true animal lover! Our big berner was so well loved and cared for by Kim. We received tons of photos and updates which made us feel so comfortable knowing he was safe! She made sure to ask questions before drop off to get to know him and listened to everything we communicated with her. Would highly recommend!”

About: I have decades of cat and dog experience. Recently, our family dog crossed the rainbow bridge and I am hoping helping others' pets can help fill the void. I raised a dog from puppyhood, fostered a rescue, and have dogsat several family and friends' dogs. For now, I can offer evening, overnight and weekend pet care. My aim is to work from home full-time and so eventually I will be able to do more! All food, toys, walks, crating, etc. will be to your instructions. Safe playing is a great time to get to know each other. I am very much the "mom" when I have to be - dogs usually respond well to my queues, and I am available as a safe place for them. My place is an apartment above a couple shops downtown Elora. There are lots of green area or trails around the neighbourhood. There are three kids here 50% of the time (ages 10-15) who are experienced with pets. There are no other animals here.

“Christine took the best care of my dog Hazel! She was so helpful and gave excellent updates. She made my dog feel right at home!”

About: It can be so difficult to find somewhere you feel comfortable with to leave your pets. We treat your dogs as our own! We have two small Boston terriers who are both spayed and good with other dogs (aged 11 and 8). Lot's of affection, love, and care is given to our animals, and we have a country home with lot's of space and property for exercise and fetch! I work from home so am available to be home with your dog to be let out often. Feel free to reach out if you want to schedule a meet and greet! I currently work from home so am available to let dogs out frequently. We do travel from time to time but will list my availability accordingly. My dogs are not crated, however we are happy to use a crate if this is how your dog is trained. We do allow our pets on the furniture and to sleep in bed however again-whatever your pet is used to is what we will do. We do have a fence at the road of the property however this is not completely enclosed, so I would be putting the dog on a long rope or lead to be safe. I am out in the country with a large yard and bush, but do not leave the dogs unattended outside for any period of time-supervision always. We understand that every dog is taken care of differently and will follow whatever guidelines you are wanting for your pet.

About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats for over 30 years. Have done some pet sitting as well which included regular walks, play time , feeding and grooming and giving medication. They will be well takken care of in my care. I have a flexible schedule at the moment and am available during the day several days a week and every other weekend. Prefer animals to stay with me. I have 1 cat so your dog will need to be accustomed to cats. My cat has been around dogs. I live out in the country with hiking trails surrounding me so I will be walking the dog daily there.
