Dog Walkers in Norfolk County

“Christi is an awesome person and awesome dog walker. My dog is always happy when she shows up and tired out when she leaves. Couldn’t ask for a better person to look after my pet.”

About: I provide attentive, calm, and reliable care tailored to each dog’s individual needs. I have experience caring for active adult dogs as well as dogs that require a more patient approach, including those that may be anxious or need a consistent routine. I focus on maintaining the routines dogs are used to at home, including regular walks, feeding schedules, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention. I am comfortable managing large dogs and energetic breeds, and I pay close attention to behaviour, body language, and safety during walks and play. I am also attentive to health needs such as medication schedules, special diets, and monitoring for changes in behaviour or appetite. My goal is to make pets feel secure and comfortable while keeping owners informed with regular updates and photos. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent, attentive care. I’m available for regular walks and drop-in visits throughout the week and can accommodate morning, midday, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. I’m calm, attentive, and safety-focused, and I’m comfortable working with a wide range of dogs, including energetic dogs, shy or anxious dogs, and larger breeds that require confident handling. I always prioritize safe leash handling, awareness of surroundings, and respecting each dog’s comfort level and boundaries.

About: With a background in litters, puppies, training, and boarding, you can relax knowing your furry friend is in the best of hands, and will come home tired and happy Full availability on weekends and evenings Please contact for through the week bookings as I do work, but am open to take in animals through that time. I have a large high fenced back yard with a walking trail directly behind my house. There is also a river down the road that dogs love to play in. I have 2 dogs that love playdates. Indoor cats and chickens in the yard that can be housed in their coop if your pet is not good with them.

About: I grew up on a farm with every kind of animal, which gave me a lifelong love and natural comfort around pets. From an early age, I learned the importance of daily care, routine, patience, and responsibility. I lead an active lifestyle and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors, making me a great companion for dogs who enjoy walks, exercise, and playtime. As I work from home, I am also able to provide consistent companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day. Reliable, warm, and genuinely passionate about animals, I take pride in treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I am retired and have a flexible schedule. I genuinely love having animals around throughout the day. I truly enjoy the companionship, warmth, and joy that pets bring into a home, and I understand how important it is for them to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Having grown up around animals, caring for pets has always come naturally to me. From energetic dogs who love adventure and exercise to cats who prefer gentle companionship and quiet comfort, I take pride in creating a warm, loving environment where pets feel happy, settled, and truly at home. Because I am home throughout the day, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, affection, and supervision - whether that means walks, playtime, cuddle breaks, feeding routines, outdoor time, or simply having a calm and caring presence nearby. I am attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, ensuring they feel relaxed, secure, and cared for as if they were part of our own family.

“Rebecca is amazing ! She met with me multiple times to get to know my rescue dog and to make me feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and videos and kept me up to date with everything when she was with him. Knowing my dog is in Rebecca's care puts me at ease. She is flexible with scheduling as I am a shift worker and that is so appreciated !! Highly recommend!!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and understand the importance of providing pets with consistent care, attention, and affection. I've also looked after dogs for friends and family, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and will treat your pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I'll make sure your dog stays happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I've been around dogs my entire life and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I take pet care seriously, follow owners' instructions closely, and create a safe, caring environment where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I'll treat your dog with the same care and attention I give my own.

About: One thing about me is that I am a veterinary technician, with that I have been caring for animals for over 5 years and with 17years of experience with my own pets. I do work at a dog boarding facility, caring for animals from morning to night. I have vast knowledge from puppies to seniors. I’m currently working part time, however Mondays and Thursdays are my off days. I can however come and check on your pups from 12:30-2:00pm and 7-8pm Monday to Thursday . If required and upon request more frequent visits can be done. If the pet is to stay with me I do live out in the country no fence however the pet will never be outside unsupervised. Either on a leash or on a 40’ leash. Crated in the house if needed. At a clients home, the pet will be supervised outside weather fenced in yard or not. Crated when I leave if required.

About: I have taken care of dogs & cats my entire life. You can’t have a farm without farm dogs or barn cats! I’ve trained puppies and have raised a litter. Also taken my own Saint Bernard to trick training classes. That’s not often a sight to see. 😊 I’ve shown horses, fed & watered. Brushed & braided prior to horse shows. Turned them out & let them in. Covered feedings for cows, sheep, goats, mink, weasels, rabbits, fish, birds, chickens & ducks. I am currently home, so I have time to stop around (pre-scheduled) and give lots of cuddles & take them out for a pee break. I have the flexibility to step away and drive to your house for letting dogs out for a run in a fenced yard, or a walk on leash, or just for a pee break and have them eat their lunch or supper. Or cuddle the kitty and give lunchtime or supper time medications. Since my house is busy with two large breed dogs, I would travel to your house for walks and feedings or medications. Some dogs and most cats prefer to stay at home where they are comfortable and less stressed. With little transition other than the meeting someone new.

About: I have owned dogs and cats for most of my life and I absolutely love all animals! I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and currently have an 8 year old English Bulldog rescue, Luna! I also have experience caring for cats, rats, bunnies and fish ☺️ I currently have weekday and weekend availability from 7am-7pm for walks (requests outside these hours possible). I am new to the Woodstock area and looking to build my walking roster here! I love every pet as if they’re my own! My friends have always made fun of me for the way I communicate with animals but they are part of the family! I will respect your space and ensure your pet is just as loved as if you were walking or caring for them.

“What an amazing lady! Thank you for taking such great care of my Poodles ❤️”

About: We have had dogs my entire life. I have adopted multiple rescue dogs since moving to including a Senior dog with vision and hearing loss who was not house trained, therefore needing a proactive approach to potty time.

I currently help my dad with his 3 intact labs and am comfortable with most dogs and most temperaments. Mastiffs, Rottweilers and Pitties are my fave dogs.

I am currently readily available to look after your furry babies and would love to spend my time with your pets, whatever sort of service you are looking for :) I have a very large yard area at my home, there is no fence so I will need to keep the dogs on a leash but they will love the space. I have a small home so can only look after small / medium dogs but I am perfectly comfortable with having dogs on my furniture including the bed. I love taking dogs out for walks so we will have so much fun together.

About: Recently I spent five months pet sitting in BC. I thoroughy enjoyed spending time with various dogs in their homes. I found that the dogs felt comfortable and at ease in their own homes while their owners knew their pets were well taken care of. Each day was a new adventure as we walked along lakes and mountains paths. I am a recently retired teacher looking for new opportunities and adventure to fill my time. I have a flexible schedule to suit your petsitting needs. As a pet owner in the past, I know how important safety is to a pet owner. I also know that a dog who gets lots of exercise and a cat who gets love and attention are happy pets. I will ensure that I will treat your pets like they are my own.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life through my family for thirty-three years and cats for twenty-five. Two years ago I adopted my first dog and greatest friend in life, a Golden Retriever named Chewie! Twelve years ago I initially fostered but later adopted two Bombay cats I named Luke and Leia. Luke passed away in 2020 but Leia is still as young as ever at twelve years old! I’m currently looking to make a career change from human services into animal care and seek further knowledge of animals to further my passion for animals! I have a fenced yard for my two year old Golden Retriever so he can roam the yard and do his business as he pleases.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was young! I am good with all sizes of dogs, having grown up with medium to xl sizes. I have fostered dogs for about 2 years, dealing with many kinds of mixes ranging from husky/shepherd mixes to malinois crosses and bully breeds! I have been in the pet care industry for about 3 years now, working as a dog groomer. As a groomer, my job is to take care of the dogs I groom while providing them with a beautiful groom.

They get daily walks (depending on the weather) and are treated like the family they are!
