“Jane was fantastic with our Rosie! She gave regular updates with pictures, and was great with making Rosie feel comfortable in her home. Rosie also had plenty of outdoor time to get her exercise and fresh air. We would not hesitate to book Jane again when we are back in Muskoka!”

“Andrea and her family have been so amazing for my dog Yana! This was her first overnight and they were so caring and soft with her, which is exactly what she needed. Will be reaching out again if I ever need help in the future!!”

“Poppy had a wonderful time here. I was away for 3 nights and I felt totally calm leaving her with Siobhan & Marc and their family and Elvis for the first time. They sent me photos and Poppy was really having a great time. They both really care about animals and I would definitely be using them in the future.”

“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for my kitty. Sabine was very responsive to my inquiries and answered all my questions. When I dropped my boy off, I knew they were looking forward to getting to know my kitty. This was the first time my kitty was away from home and Sabine reassured me with many pics and texts.I would highly recommend Sabine and her husband to watch your dog or cat.”

“We couldn't be more grateful for the incredible care that Wayne (aka: Dog Whisperer) and Darlene provided for our Golden Retriever, little lady Luna. She was so terrified and nervous on our drive to drop her off, but from the moment we arrived, it was clear that Wayne had a natural, calming connection with her. He was patient, attentive, and genuinely tuned in to Luna's needs and personality. From the updates he sent us, Luna looked relaxed, happy, and thriving. If you're looking for someone who treats your dog like family, understands their behaviour and brings both professionalism and heart to their work, Wayne is the person you want. We highly recommend him, and will absolutely be calling on him again for Luna. Thank you to both of you for taking such wonderful care our little fur baby! Lausanne and Jason (Jay)”

About: Hi! I’m Taylor, Your Dog’s New Best Friend! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud owner of two amazing pups—a rescue from Tennessee who’s never met a stranger and a playful black lab rottie mix. I offer daycare, walks, boarding and house sitting. I’m available mornings, afternoons, or evenings, weekdays and weekends! Having grown up with dogs, I’m experienced with all ages—from energetic puppies to sweet seniors. I’m happy to cater to any special needs your dog or cat may have. I’m passionate about training and am happy to work on anything you’re trying to teach your pup! I’ve lived all over Ontario, and my favorite part is exploring nature with my boys. Whether it’s hiking through forests or discovering new off-leash parks, I’m always up for an adventure. Your pet is guaranteed to get lots of love, exercise, and snuggles during their time with me! I work a flexible schedule from home, but I sometimes have meetings or need to head into town, so I will need to take care of your pet at scheduled times! Exact times will vary. My dogs can be selective with other dogs so require 1-2 introduction sessions in advance of boarding stays. Whether in your home or mine, I try my absolute best to follow the schedule you have for your pup, and ensure we are following your rules.
“Rhiannon and Patrick are exactly what we have been looking for. We have 2 Bouviers that need room to roam and people to love and they have found them. With 100 acres and endless trails Sadie and Koda came home happy and tired😀 We will definitely be booking with Rhiannon again.”

“Our pup had SUCH a great time with Dakota. She was excellent at keeping us up to date with progress and pictures. We were so at ease and grateful for the wonderful, loving care she received. Looking forward to her next stay!”

“Taylor stopped in to look after our cats while we were away. She followed directions perfectly and went above and beyond to ensure our cats were taken care of. She communicated extremely well with us and we will definitely book again with Taylor.”

“Thanks to Tracy for caring for the puddies so well. Cat boxes were cleaned. House was left very neat and tidy. I appreciated the pictures she sent through 10 days. I would recommend Tracy to anyone who needs pet care. I'm sure we will be booking Tracy again when the time comes. To Tracy: Thank for the special card you left that I believe you painted. Lovely.”

About: I think it is the connection I make with all doggies. I like to make sure they are very happy to be around me and that they have what ever they need. I adjust my actions to look after senior doggies or puppies and all in between. I am retired and my schedule is usually flexible. I am looking to meet new doggies and look after them during the week. I could be available on weekends if needed. We don’t have any pets and have a large rural property. We would discuss the needs of your dog and taylor their needs to make everyone comfortable. We can accommodate off leash and leased dogs.
“Siobhan & Marc have a lovely property and great indoor setup to care for dogs! Luna was very happy and tired when she came home, and is looking forward to the next visit.”

“Rhiannon was so lovely with our Bernese, Fred-Franklin! She went above and beyond and dropped him back to us when we were in a pickle with our car, and we could tell he had a great day. Very lovely and communicative. :)”
