“Tiffany takes such vigilant care of my dog River. She recognizes his needs, takes him on long walks, and burns out his crazy energy! My dog is always a happy boy after a walk with Tiffany.”


“Nova is wonderful with my pup and also very reliable which is so valuable! Highly recommend.”

“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.”


“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!!”


“Lorand is amazing! He was attentive and loving to my dog and knew how to handle a dog of his strength and size. Every walk ended with pics and updates on how my pup was. He was also respectful and polite and that goes a long way. I highly recommend Lorand.”


About: I have always had a big soft spot for animals and have cared for many pets throughout the years including both cats and dogs. I am also a very active individual who plays dodgeball as well as soccer and I love to squeeze in a walk wherever I can. I can bring your dog to the beach for a swim or I can Tucker them out in the backyard before retreating inside to nap with the A/C on high 😎 I was previously only providing walking services, however, my fur baby passed away this summer at the age of 14 and I now feel ready to give that love and attention to someone else’s fur baby. Therefore I have opened up my availability to be able to provide doggy day care and boarding services later in the week. Please feel free to reach out as sometimes I am available other days during the week as well.☺️ I currently work full time Monday through Thursday and am free most early mornings and evenings as well as anytime on Fridays and most saturdays and sundays. I would love to take your dog for a walk/run or throw a ball around in the park or can play with him in a fenced backyard depending on behaviour and requirements.

About: I’ve been volunteering with Dogs and Cats since I was 12. I’ve also fostered senior cats and have dealt with individual needs for different animals on multiple occasions. I currently live with cats and have gotten use to building a tailored experience to make your animal feel loved and for the owner to feel like I could be trusted. I’m currently working from home and don’t have a strict 9-5 schedule and have weekends free and can take care of pets while you are on vacations. Having a very flexible schedule I’ll be sure to find time to fit your schedule and needs. I make sure to give time for the animal to bind with me and find an activity that the pet will enjoy engaging in. I’m very patient and open to learning how to play, pet and feed the pets in a way that is most comfortable to them. I am more than happy to accommodate specific type of petting, feeding etc. I understand each pet has individual needs and emotions and I’m very patient with the process. I hope to create a trusting space for your pet and deliver on your and the pets needs.


About: Hi! My name is Ali, I attend Brock University in St Catharines, ON. I live off campus. I have been raising, caring and training dogs for 8 years. I have experience with all sizes of dogs and with all types of help related to them, including but not limited to, medication administering, walking, feeding, grooming and general daily pet sitting. Also have experience in raising puppies with their weening and different feeding patterns and giving basic socialization and obedience training. *I offer help with crate/pad training also. *Simple obedience training can be offered separately such as learning their name, sit, stay, down, come when called, proper leash/pressure training and general manners and behaviors around the house. Message/call me and we can speak on how I can help you and your pet in the best way! I look forward to working with you

About: Many years of experience with many breeds and ages of dogs, cats and horses. I continuously learn about new technics to improve my skills to care, to groom, to train. Currently available during the week for visits, walks and grooming as well as short-term boarding. Prefer well socialized animals so that if I need to walk with several dogs or have a cat and a dog owner needing boarding, the animals can at least live within the same environment. I will walk the dogs on a leash in a safe environment; trail, walkways to ensure minimal interactions. I will let the dog off leash in a dog park if we are by ourselves; this will help at the beginning while we get to know each other and I know the dog is focus on me before introducing his/her to other dogs.

“Shannon is the a dog whisper that immediately made our pups comfortable and excited for their walk. Shannon brings us the peace of mind that our babies are happy and taken care while away from us.”


About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve raised and trained a variety of breeds—from energetic Border Collies to gentle Golden Retrievers and lovable Bernese Mountain Dogs—starting from 8-week-old puppies all the way through their senior years. Daily walks, positive reinforcement training, and lots of love have always been part of my routine. With over 20 years of hands-on experience as a dedicated dog owner, I understand that every dog is unique and deserves care tailored to their personality and needs. Whether your pup is high-energy, a little shy, or just loves a good stroll and some belly rubs, I’m here to help them feel happy, safe, and loved. Your dog will be in good hands—because I care for every pup like they’re my own. I have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of walking times to fit your dog's needs. I’m happy to work with you to find the perfect times for your pup’s daily walks and care! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m taking them for a fun walk or checking in on them at home, I always ensure they’re well cared for. I’m happy to follow any instructions you have for feeding, giving treats, or letting your dog outside for potty breaks. If your pup needs to be crated while you're away, I can handle that with ease and ensure they’re comfortable and secure. With years of experience, I’m accustomed to caring for dogs in all environments. Whether it's keeping your dog company while you're out or ensuring their routine is maintained, I provide a calm, loving presence. You can trust that I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention as I would my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well-loved while you're away.
