Mark and Julie were very accommodating. They took Pepper for the night on short notice and he had a great time. They sent us some cute photos and stayed in touch. Thank you for boarding him.

Courtney was absolutely exceptional! Stella had a great time in her care! Her property is amazing! She had excellent communication; sent pictures while out on a walk, and kept me in the loop and reassured while we were away! She definitely went over and above to pamper, exercise and take great care of Stella! We would 100% book again and reccommend Courtney!

Pam did an excellent job of looking after our dog Rory! She gave her regular walks and meals and sent us pics to show us Rory was well. Pam is a nice person and I would trust her to care for my dog again!

About: I bring a gentle, grounded presence to every animal I care for. As a wellness practitioner, I’m attuned to energy, body language, and emotional needs, skills that translate beautifully into working with pets. I take time to build trust and connection, creating a calm, loving environment where animals feel safe and seen. I love all animals and live a vegetarian lifestyle, which reflects my respect and care for them. I have experience caring for both young and senior pets and am confident with everything from playful walks to quiet companionship and gentle grooming. My fenced-in property provides a safe space for dogs to run and explore freely. My approach is always patient, kind, and heart-centered because I know our pets are family. My flexible schedule allows me to offer consistent walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. My home is a calm, nurturing space where caring for animals fits easily and naturally into my daily rhythm. Pets in my care have plenty of company, attention, and affection. In my home, visiting pets are welcomed into a peaceful, friendly environment with plenty of space to play and relax. I have two gentle female goldendoodles who love company and help create a warm, social atmosphere. Our fenced yard offers a safe area for outdoor time, and I can provide crate accommodations if needed. Whether in my home or a client’s, I follow each pet’s routine closely - meals, walks, rest, and affection, to help them feel comfortable and cared for.

About: Dogs have been part of my life since childhood. I have raised 2 Dashounds, a mixed breed rescue, Bernese Mountain Dog and a Golden Retriever. I have boarded friend’s dogs providing a safe and comfortable home while their humans are away. My goal is to provide your dog with a fulfilling experience that meets your pet’s needs as if they were with you. Whether our walks are on leash or off leash your pet will have the excercise it requires accompanied by loads of positive reinforcement. Any special or specific requests that you may have are appreciated. Beach adventures, park walks and hiking trails are my specialty. I am a retired professional and have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I am available weekdays Monday to Thursday between 7am and 3pm to assist with any of your pet’s walking routines. I am available on some weekends throughout the month, which can be discussed if you require someone to address your and your pet’s needs. The safety of your pet is my top priority. If you have a specific area that you would like your dog walked please let me know as I am happy to implement it in order to make you pet’s experience enjoyable. My primary focus is to provide an enriching and safe walking environment for your pet.

About: I have 10 years experience taking care of small pets, big pets and pets with different needs through working at a vet clinic, National Service Dogs and with my own pets. My dog (GSD mix) is reactive so I've been through various types of behaviour modification training to work with him on this. As a reactive pet owner, I understand the importance of finding a suitable location to take your pet for outdoor play and stimulation in addition to the skills required to handle unexpected situations (offleash dogs, etc.) as they arise. My other dog (Brittany spaniel) has medical needs and requires medication to be administered at certain times. It's important to me to understand what your pet's needs are to provide the best care and I will work with you to understand how best to accomodate your pet. You can rest assured that your pet is in good hands - I'm here for your pet's needs, and your peace of mind! I have a flexible schedule which allows me to provide pet care. I have weekend and evening availability and will work with you if additional care if needed. Please reach out to discuss further. I have a fenced yard and can accomodate your pet based on its needs. If there's a specific skill or training you are working on, please let me know so I can incorporate this into your pet's care and routine.

About: I have been looking after animals for more than 20 years. I am an incredibly compassionate guardian, who feels very connected to all animals since I was little. I currently do not have any pets, so I would be honored to support you and taking care of your loved one. I run my own online business from home in pockets of time. Which means I have flexibility to cater to your pet's needs when needed. I have a vehicle, and access to amazing walking trails on and off leash. I have created a safe and fun environment for pets from my home. And I assure that the pet owners wishes and schedule is being fully honored during the time of care.

About: My name is Rae and I am an absolute dog lover! I will take extra special care of your furry friend and treat them like they are family. I am a Registered Nurse and have many days off when not working so your dog(s) will have all of my attention! For days that I am working I live with my boyfriend who is a fellow dog lover. I have had dogs since I was born (mostly black labs) and have much experience with training. I am very active and love to be outdoors so I am happy to tire your dog out or just snuggle on the couch. I live in a detached home with a large fenced in backyard with trails and dog parks within walking distance. I would love to be their home away from home :) I work shift work so I have five days off at a time. During those days I am fully available and will be home all day. I have a fenced in back yard and a lab mix (Sunny) who is very friendly and loves to play! He loves all other dogs and would very happy to share his home.

About: Dogs are family, I love and care for them accordingly. I have been privileged to always have dogs in my life, the more the merrier! I have taken a month of work to do home renovations! Now that the renovations are nearing a finish I have ample time for dog walks, play and care! Having a high energy pup myself, we keep very active. I live a active lifestyle and tend to stick to activities that are dog friendly! I am a nature enthusiast and lucky to live very close to a beautiful trail system that we use multiple times a day. Long walks makes home base that much sweeter to relax, play and eat!

About: Loving, Rural Dog Care with Room to Roam Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with experience caring for all kinds of pups—from playful puppies to seniors needing extra TLC. Whether you’re looking for boarding, drop-in visits, or dog walking, your pet will be treated like family: safe, secure, and spoiled with belly rubs and attention. I am also a local fireman and safety always comes first. We live on a quiet rural property, perfect for peaceful walks and outdoor play. With your permission, we often walk down to a nearby creek for supervised swims—always on-lead to keep your dog safe. Overnight guests sleep securely in a crate for comfort and protection. Your pup will also meet Dave, our friendly, neutered 2-year-old Lab who loves company and gets along great with other dogs. ✨ Services offered: • Boarding in our cozy country home • Drop-in visits for feeding, play, or potty breaks • Dog walking with on-leash safety • Pick-up & drop-off available 🐾 Meet-and-greets are welcome! Come visit the property and ask any questions—your peace of mind matters. I’d love to care for your pup and give them a home-away-from-home experience! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m self-employed, which allows me to keep a flexible schedule and prioritize your pet’s needs throughout the day. Whether it’s a mid-morning walk, an afternoon potty break, or evening playtime, I’m always available to give your pup the care and attention they deserve. On weekends, we’re usually working around the homestead, so I’m home and active—perfect for keeping an eye on boarding guests and making sure they’re involved, exercised, and well-loved. Your dog won’t be left alone or ignored—they’ll be part of the daily rhythm here. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting them at yours, their comfort, safety, and routine come first. In My Home: Dogs staying with us enjoy a safe, calm environment with plenty of attention, affection, and outdoor time. We live on a quiet rural property with space to walk and play. With your permission, we may take on-leash walks to a nearby creek for a supervised swim. Guests are never left unattended outdoors and sleep safely in a crate at night unless otherwise discussed. They’ll also have friendly company from our neutered 2-year-old Lab, Dave. Drop-In Visits: When visiting your home, I stick closely to your pet’s regular routine—feeding, walking, potty breaks, playtime, medication if needed, and of course, lots of love and care. I’ll send regular updates so you know how your pup is doing. Dog Walking: Walks are always done on-leash and tailored to your dog’s energy level and comfort. Safety is a top priority, and I make sure each walk is a fun and enriching experience.

Pamela was a wonderful care provider for Goose. She provided timely updates and photos throughout his stay with her putting me at ease despite our first time booking with her. Picked up Goose happy and exhausted from hours of play with his new buddy Moose. We look forward to booking with Pamela in the near future! Thank you Pamela and Moose for a great experience!
