“Stephanie was so kind to help us out last minute in a pinch. We have two border collies with high energy and crazy personalities and Stephanie put my mind at ease knowing she had 5 dogs of her own at home and knew how to handle strong dogs. Will definitely ask her to walk my dogs again and again!”
About: Armed with over 3 years of dog training and care experience working in kennels, doggy daycares, pet sitting and dog walking I can ensure the best care for your pets. I am certified in canine first aid and have experience with large animals like horses, pets like cats and dogs, as well as smaller animals like rabbits and rats. I have been an animal lover for my whole life, always having an animal in the home. I have grown my clientele base through word of mouth and wanted to expand to other avenues. Im currently in school part time with a relatively open schedule. I am unavailable Thursdays between 9:30-11:30, but otherwise available any day, whenever is most convenient for the client. I have a shared courtyard with grassy areas that I take dogs out to on a leash. There is also the brock trail close by to walk for a quiet trip, or walking downtown for those more adventures pups. I have a private room that they can be secluded in if needed, but for the most part they can have the run of the apartment with supervision.
“Maer started walking my dog when she was a pup two and a half years ago. Over the years, she has consistently provided excellent service, great recommendations on training and useful observations on my dog's behaviour and interests. She is patient and loving, which has built the dog's confidence and trust. Maer is incredibly reliable, flexible to changes in schedules and trustworthy. I would strongly recommend her. She's amazing.”
“Kimberley was amazing with my dog! I loved how she just fit him in with her life during the overnight stay. I know he was well cared for and pampered. I highly recommend Kimberley.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life. I’ve been watching neighbours, family and friends pet when they need a helping hand. Always looking forward to getting outside to go for walks. I’m currently working from home, so it allows me to keep an eye on your pet. During my breaks I can play with your pet as well as give them lots of love and attention throughout the day! I have a big yard for your dog to run around in. Recently got a puppy, so it would be great for them to play together.
About: I have cared for my family’s dogs for periods ranging from a few days to several months, and I have regularly lived with dogs for long periods of time. Through this experience, I understand that caring for animals requires time, patience, responsibility, and dedication. I truly enjoy helping animals feel safe, calm, and comfortable, and I always try to create a caring environment where they can feel relaxed and secure. I would plan my daily routine to make sure your dog is included throughout the day, with dedicated time for rest, feeding, playtime, and exercise. Your dog would not only be cared for by one person, but welcomed as part of a family environment. I genuinely enjoy the company of animals and feel comfortable understanding their behaviors, needs, and personalities, which helps me provide attentive and caring support. I live in an apartment with balcony, available for pets to move around comfortably. Even large dogs can move freely, and my home is free of fragile objects, so your dog will not feel restricted or stressed while staying with me. I also live near parks and pet-friendly walking areas, which makes it easy to provide regular outdoor exercise and enjoyable walks. I understand the needs and behaviors of animals, and I would adapt my daily routine to the schedule and specific needs of your pet. I am very protective of animals, so your dog would always be safe and carefully supervised with me, especially in open or public spaces. I believe in building trust and discipline through patience, consistency, and positive interaction rather than using force. In general, I connect well with animals and enjoy giving them a sense of safety, comfort, and confidence so they can feel protected and truly enjoy their time with me.
