About: Hi! I'm Meg, and I'm a dog-loving Shediac local who adores giving pups a fun, safe place to stay while their humans enjoy the beach. I'm just five minutes from Parlee Beach, making it easy for vacationers to relax while their dog enjoys a little getaway of their own. I care for all breeds, seniors, special needs-dogs, and high-energy personalities. I provide plenty of enrichment through games, structured walks, and supervised outdoor play. If you're planning a longer vacation away from home, I also provide boarding services so you can enjoy your time away. During your vacation, I'll provide daily updates and photos of your pup so you can rest assured that they're having just as much fun as you are! I have been relied upon in the past to watch family and friends' dogs of all ages and sizes, including administering of medication, feeding, and bathing. I only ever take on one dog at a time, ensuring your pup gets all the attention they need over the course of their stay. My six year old sheepadoodle, Arlo, is friendly and easygoing with other dogs, but I can keep pups separate if needed so everyone feels comfortable. With beach and trail access right nearby, your dog gets thoughtful activity, one-on-one attention, and a fun, relaxed environment while you enjoy your ocean day. Pet care is already woven right into my daily routine. I work part-time from home, so I'm around throughout the day to give your dog steady attention and plenty of activity. My own six-year old sheepadoodle, Arlo, keeps me on a great schedule - we do structured daily walks, trail adventures, fetch sessions, and supervised outdoor play. Visiting dogs simply fold into that rhythm, getting thoughtful engagement, calm downtime, and consistent routines. Whether your dog loves high-energy play or prefers gentle company, I make sure their day feels balanced, safe, and genuinely cared for. Creating a safe and comfortable environment is the heart of how I care for dogs in my home. Dogs in my care join a calm, structured routine alongside my own dog, Arlo, a friendly and easygoing six-year old sheepadoodle. I tailor each stay to your dog's personality and comfort level - with quiet rest spaces, supervised outdoor play, enrichment activities, and the option to keep dogs separate whenever needed. My home is set up for predictable routines, gentle engagement, and lots of one-on-one attention. For walking services, I pick dogs up directly from their homes and follow their established routines to keep them feeling secure. Walks are structured, purposeful, and enriched with lots of sniffing opportunities and calm guidance. Whether a dog is staying with me in my home for an afternoon, a few days, or joining me for a walk, my focus is always the same: safety, trust, and a relaxed environment where every dog feels supported and genuinely cared for - perfect for dogs who need a little extra reassurance while travelling!

About: I've been around animals my whole life, and I love taking dogs for walks. In my free time, I also enjoy horseback riding and walking dogs for SPCA, I've even babysat a friend's hamster. Going for walks and enjoying the outdoors is a passion of mine. I'm looking for extra income in addition to my job, so I'm offering dog-walking services during my free time throughout the week. I'll do my best to accommodate your needs, whether it's walking your dog around your neighborhood or taking them to a nearby dog park if required.

That being said, if there's a day that's not listed, please don't hesitate to ask, as things could change! When dog walking, my primary focus is on the well-being and happiness of the dog. I start by ensuring the dog is securely leashed and comfortable with their equipment. During the walk, I choose a safe route, preferably the one that the dog knows, taking into account the dog's pace and preferences. I pay close attention to their body language, allowing for breaks when needed. Socialization with other dogs and people is carefully managed, and I always clean up after them. Clear communication with the dog owner is a priority, providing updates on the walk's progress. My goal is to provide a enjoyable and safe experience for the dog, promoting their physical and mental health.

Cats will not be let outside unless specified and dogs will always be let out by leash or if the yard is fenced. If a pet needs to be crated that’s not issue either.
