“Shawn did a fantastic job taking care of my dachshund over three days. He was prompt and thorough. Followed instructions to the letter. Totally pampered my guy with long walks to his favourite spots and administered his meds as needed. Recommend him highly and plan to use him again when I have to be out of the house for work etc.”
“Holly is a dependable, trustworthy and loving person. I highly recommend her. I know my dog is in great hands when she’s in charge of taking care of him. She’s been working with me for almost a year now and she’s absolutely wonderful.

“I'm so lucky to have Kamber as Bernie's dog walker! She's always on time and reliable, and she leaves my house neat and tidy. Bernie adores spending time with her and loves when her daughter comes along for extra playtime. Kamber is fantastic at taking care of Bernie. She's super careful and always looks for potential dangers, like other dogs or cars. Plus, she's been helping me train Bernie to be more comfortable around other pups when we're out for walks. I can't say enough good things about Kamber's communication skills. She's excellent at keeping me updated on everything with Bernie and is always on top of scheduling our appointments. I trust her completely and am happy to have her as our dog walker!”

“We couldn’t be more grateful for Stefanie! She has been a true life-saver, especially after we had our baby and needed extra help. Knowing we could count on her to take care of our dog, Astro, gave us such peace of mind during a busy and exhausting time. Astro absolutely loves his walks with her, and it’s clear Stefanie treats him like her own. She’s always on time, incredibly professional, and so caring. We feel so lucky to have found someone we trust completely with Astro. Stefanie truly goes above and beyond, and we can’t recommend her highly enough!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for ten plus years and have loved every moment of it. I raised two pups from 17 weeks old and 8 weeks old.

I’ll be home walking my dog, playing with her outside and enjoying the hopefully warm weather. I care for pets by giving them what they need. A couple short or long walks a day along with playing. Feeding them along with making sure there is enough water. Giving all the cuddle and pets
