“My boys LOVE Gillian. I have a foster dog who can be reactive. She is fantastic at managing him and he absolutely adores her. The second I say "Gillian" he rushes to the door to wait for her, tail wagging. My other boy is a senior dog who takes his time with things and can be a little indifferent, but he loves her too. Thank you so much, Gillian for always doing a fantastic job with my babies!!”

About: Reliable local dog walker in St. Catharines 🐶 Experienced with both dogs and cats, I treat every pet like my own. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have always loved caring for them. Growing up in Tobermory on the Bruce Peninsula, I spent a lot of time outdoors and around animals, which helped build my connection with them. I’ve had both dogs and cats throughout my life and currently have four cats with my girlfriend. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, going for walks, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule and am available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I always prioritize safety and comfort, taking the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs. During visits and walks, I make sure pets are supervised, getting the exercise they need, and I keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Feel free to reach out — I’d love to meet you and your pet! I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time outdoors, so pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week and enjoy taking dogs out for exercise and fresh air. I always prioritize safety and comfort when caring for pets. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs so they feel relaxed and cared for.

“This was our first time leaving our Benji alone for a week. We were feeling very unsure and anxious as to how to go about this. Our daughter was getting married in Mexico and everyone we knew would attend. A friend mentioned Rover and we investigated. But who to trust? After a few attempts, we noticed Jade with all her great reviews. It was the right decision! Jade was prompt, courteous, lovely with huge smiles. Most importantly, Benji warmed right up to her! We knew it then. Our worries faded quickly. Every day, twice, we were texted the time of walking, the map of the route, his activity and pictures. It made our week! Jade was so consistent and thorough, we vowed to give her a big SHOUT OUT! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, the assurance was greatly appreciated! :)”

About: What sets me apart is the individualized, stress-free environment I provide. Since I don’t have pets or children of my own, your dog will enjoy my 100% undivided attention in a clean, quiet, and smoke-free home. Growing up with family pets and helping on my grandfather’s farm gave me a natural, calm, and patient approach to animal care. I am highly organized and communicative, so you will always receive regular photo updates and total peace of mind while you are away. I am also comfortable with puppy care and senior care, as well as administering oral medications. Whether your pet needs the extra patience and frequent breaks of a puppy or the quiet, gentle routine of a senior, I am committed to ensuring their schedule and care stay exactly as it is at home. As a freelance professional working from home, my schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing me to make pet care my top priority throughout the day. Your dog will never be left alone for long periods; instead, they will enjoy constant companionship and a consistent routine. Safety and trust are my top priorities. My home is a very clean, organized, and peaceful environment, which I believe is essential for a pet to feel secure. I live in a pet-free and smoke-free household with my husband, meaning there are no other animals or children to cause stress or unpredictable situations. Since I work from home, I provide constant supervision. Your pet will never be left unattended in open areas. Although I have an open shared space outdoors, I strictly follow a 'leash-only' policy for outside time to ensure your pet is always safe and by my side. We are also lucky to live very close to a local park, where I take pets for secure, on-leash walks to get fresh air and exercise. I understand how important it is to know your pet is doing well. I commit to sending daily photo and video updates so you can see how happy and relaxed they are. My home is a 'home away from home' where I follow your specific instructions—from feeding schedules to medical needs—to the letter. I treat every guest as if they were my own family pet.

About: I share my life with a husband, two healthy cats and a giant breed dog who has several ongoing health issues. I have worked in the pet industry for over 11 years and I have provided pet-care services for over 12 years. I am comfortable caring for cats and dogs of all breeds, all sizes, and all life stages. I work closely with pet parents in order to provide exceptional, tailored care for their pets, including caring for elderly animals and those with special needs. I always work to build positive relationships with clients and their pets. I am experienced with walks, play sessions, veterinary visits, medication administration, raw feeding, and overnight stays. I am a retail store manager and I set my own schedule. The schedule is made one month in advance. I typically work 4-hour shifts in-store, plus I do some work from home, so I have lots of availability to visit and walk or play with your pet. I can provide overnight care any evenings of the week, but I require 7 days' notice for house-sitting bookings so that I can plan for my own pets' care while I am away from home. I am happy to learn and follow your pet's specific routines: walks, play sessions, yard time, meals, sleeping arrangements, veterinary visits, or special adventures. I am experienced walking dogs on harnesses, gentle leaders, and all collars: flat, martingale, chain, prong & tone/vibration. I will not use shock collars. I have a relaxed attitude and will never force your pet to accept petting or cuddles. I like to use treats as positive rewards, so be sure to let me know if your pet is allowed to have treats. I have lots of knowledge and experience preparing and feeding raw pet food and I am comfortable feeding chews and/or raw bones, if they are a part of your pet's diet.

I follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific instructions provided by the owner.

“We’ve only known Jenny for short time, but in that short time, she’s made a wonderful impression on both us and our Aussie/collie mix, Dexter. Her punctuality and genuine affection for Dexter have been evident from day one. Dexter eagerly awaits their walks, and it’s clear he enjoys his time with her. She knows what he needs- time off leash so he can run and run! My dog will eat anything on the ground. You have to watch him so closely and I know he's safe with her. Jenny’s professionalism and warmth have quickly earned our trust, and we’re looking forward to continuing Dexter's relationship with Jenny. We highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a reliable and caring dog walker.”
