Dog Walking Wagner's Corner

About: Hi, I’m Alex! I’ve been caring for dogs, especially Border Collies, since 2007 and have built a deep understanding of their personalities and needs. Growing up, I spent countless hours walking my dog, exploring trails, and using those walks as a peaceful escape. This connection to nature and animals has fueled my lifelong love for dogs of all breeds. When my Border Collie became a senior, I was her primary caretaker. From carrying her up and down stairs when she needed help to spending quality one-on-one time with her, I learned how to adapt to a dog’s unique needs at every stage of life. Currently, I live with two family dogs, Skye and Piper, and my cat, Lulu, which has given me even more experience with multi-pet households. I’m very mindful of dog behavior and body language, ensuring they always feel comfortable and safe. Having had dogs that weren’t always social with others, I’m skilled at managing walks and being aware of our surroundings. I always work on a dog’s terms, respecting their boundaries, and letting them come to me when they’re ready. Whether it’s a high-energy pup needing an adventure or a senior dog needing gentle care, I’m here to provide tailored attention and love for your furry friend. I can’t wait to meet your dog and learn more about their personality and preferences! I currently feed and walk my two border collies and cat everyday. My cat likes to come along in her carrier backpack for our daily walks. And of course I give them treats when they are demanded (in moderation). I will talk with my pets whenever they come into the room. Since I have border collies we are constantly playing with the toys, both inside and outside.

“so kind and hearted Waking up to the pics and news about my dog you sent? Made my day! You're so thoughtful. It always brightens my morning. Knowing my pup's in good hands with you, I'm stress - free. Thanks a ton!”

About: With 10 years of pet-care experience, I’ve had the opportunity to care for dogs with different personalities, ages, energy levels, and needs. I especially enjoy getting to know each dog and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I have experience with puppies, including basic puppy training, routines, socialization, and reinforcing positive behaviours. I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs, following special diets or routines, and administering medication when needed. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and very observant. I pay attention to changes in a dog’s appetite, energy, mood, and behaviour and always follow their family’s instructions carefully. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I treat every dog in my care like family. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, walks, playtime, cuddles, and lots of individual attention. 🐶❤️ I’m home throughout the day, so pets staying with me are never left alone. I’m able to give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day while following their usual routine. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home where pets can truly feel like part of the family. I have a two-level home with a fully fenced backyard and a finished basement. Pets are welcome to stay with me throughout the day and are allowed on our couches and in the family spaces. I’m home throughout the day, so pets are never left alone during their stay. We enjoy regular walks, playtime, and plenty of relaxation and cuddles. I carefully follow each pet’s feeding schedule, routine, medication instructions, and any special needs. For dogs staying in my home, I recommend bringing a favourite toy, blanket, or familiar item from home to help them feel comfortable and settled. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, loved, and cared for as if they were part of our own family. 🐶❤️

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong passion for animals and extensive hands-on experience. I've cared for my own dogs and cats since childhood, helped foster puppies and dogs, gained professional experience caring for animals, and spent years providing trusted pet care for friends, family, and neighbours. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I recently completed my Master's degree at the University of Waterloo and am excited to spend more time doing something I genuinely love: caring for animals. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I enjoy staying active through walks while providing pets with the attention, companionship, and care they need. My flexible schedule allows me to be available throughout the day and week, making it easy to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I take the time to learn each pet's preferences, exercise needs, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to ensure they feel safe and secure while their owners are away. I have experience entering and caring for clients' homes through previous positions, so I understand the importance of being respectful, responsible, and trustworthy in someone else's space. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, administering routine care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet and home with the same care and attention I would give my own. For services in my home, I live in a pet-friendly apartment with access to secure walking routes, a fenced play area, and a nearby fenced dog park for exercise and enrichment.

“Elle was great with my dog Lumos! She arrived on time, took him for a nice walk, and played with him in the backyard. She also updated me with many photos and videos! Would definitely recommend.”

“Alex has been absolutely great with our 7 year old pit heeler, Moon. Normally, Moon takes awhile to warm up to strangers, but with Alex, there was a bond from Day 1. Alex is fantastic: reliable and on time - rain, snow or shine, courteous and goes above and beyond in their daily 1 hour walks. So happy to find you, Alex! Many thanks to you, from Moon’s family! ❤️”

About: I've been an animal lover since I was very little. I have experience with fostering and training puppies, I am an avid hiker and love being outdoors.

I also tend to my large garden, which provides a safe space for dogs to explore play or nap! I prioritize full attention as well as a calm predictable routine for whoever I am caring for. My home is set up to be cozy, clean and pet-friendly. I treat all animals like family, and their comfort and well being are always my top priorities. I follow and specific feeding schedules, medication needs, or routines that owners provide, and I take special care with senior or special-needs pets. Dogs staying with me can enjoy plenty of time outside in my secure yard or nature walks on the trails nearby, if they like being outdoors! I make it a priority to make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and at home while they're with me.

“Kara was friendly, on time and very kind. You can tell she really cares for animals. I asked her a ton of questions and we set up some times to walk our high energy dog, Link. He loved her. She sent lots of photos and a video which was great. She’s going to help us out as we are expecting our first baby any day now and Kara seemed extremely reliable. Will be booking her again! Thanks Kara!”

About: Pets make every day better! We adore both dogs and cats and have been taking care of them for 8+ years. Robert has a strong and active American bulldog. He is great at taking bigger dogs on safe and comfortable walks. Suhaana has had pet dogs and cats all her life. Her strengths are showering them with endless attention, cuddles and care. We both enjoy running and parks and would love to take your pup with us! We have a spacious balcony in Waterloo, Ontario and are at home almost all day. We mostly study and work from home. From anxious pups to social butterflies and babies to senior dogs, we have experience taking care of all of them! Pet care is an enjoyable and very welcome part of our daily routine! We start our day with morning walks when we’re dog sitting to help dogs get their energy out and stay active. In the evenings, we take them on another walk to wind down and enjoy some fresh air. We are happy to accommodate additional walks. Throughout the day, we make sure every pup feels loved and cared for. We’re flexible with scheduling and available for last minute bookings. We live in a spacious apartment in Waterloo Ontario, with many peaceful trails nearby and in Kitchener. We also have a big balcony for your pet to play on. We are both active people and enjoy walks and runs.

“Keira stepped up to walk my dog Rusty 2x per day for a whole week, at last minute’s notice when my whole family suddenly fell sick. She was gentle and caring with Rusty, always on time, and had strong and prompt communication with me. I won’t hesitate to book Keira again or recommend her to others.”

I can also house sit, dog walk, and pet sit. Thanks so much! I am a stay-at-home mom so I am home virtually all the time. Walks and training are part of my every day already. I take my own dog out often as she has a small bladder :) I have a townhouse and can keep animals separated if necessary or with everyone depending on the dogs personality and owners wants. I would love to treat the dog like I do my own.

About: Hello! My name is Olivia, and I am an experienced dog owner who runs my own training, grooming and pet care business in New Hamburg called Canine Community Corner. We offer a wide variety of services, such as boarding, walking, drop in visits, bath and brush, and nail trim services. We also carry a wide variety of pet care products in our storefront, most of which are made by other local small businesses. In my home, I have 2 dogs and a cat. In the past I have also had a bearded dragon, a chameleon, hamster, rats, and mice, so I am experienced with a wide range of animals. During their stay with us, your pet will receive flexible 5 star care, depending on their needs and preferences. My dogs and I are avid hikers, and often spend our free time out on walks through the forest. If your dog prefers to stay home, we are also able to provide a calm and quiet environment for the duration of their stay. I also have a wide variety of actives they can do at my facility in the case of bad weather, including a treadmill, obstacle training, and scent work activities. My goal and belief as a pet professional is that services should be catered to each specific client, and not a one size fits all model. Because of the size of our living space and the nature of my job/business, I do require that any dogs coming to stay with us are crate trained and that their crate is brought with them. This not only allows for a smooth and stress-free stay, but provides your dog with a familiar safe space in a new environment. If your dog has any sort of separation anxiety, please let me know beforehand so I can plan accordingly. Feel free to message me with questions at any time! Because I am a small business owner, I have a very flexible schedule that can change depending on the needs of my clients - whether that’s in a drop-in, walk, or boarding service. Our canine clients often spend the day with my at my storefront, then come hone with me in the evenings to hang out until bedtime. Depending on the dog and the preferences of the owner, they may also participate in group classes as a demo dog to help show the exercises being taught. I am currently living in an apartment that opens outside to a large yard. Dogs are kept on a long line, unless otherwise specified by their owner that they are able to be reliably off leash. Even with owner permission, I typically avoid any off leash time that could potentially lead to the dog escaping or getting injured. I also have a very structured system in my home, where I introduce dogs through a parallel pack walk before letting them interact either indoors or outdoors. I also spend a significant amount of time working on calm and impulse control, and avoid letting pets in my home get overly excited.

“Emma is great with our puppy! We come home to a happy, well-exercised (mentally and physically) pup at the end of our days and couldn’t be happier. Emma is great with communication and sends me great photos which really make my day! Our pups love her, and we love the peace of mind her visits provide.”
