Peaceful Purrs & Playful Pups

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Adam and I'd love to be your go-to pet sitter! With over 10 years experience in caring for dogs, cats and everything in between, I'm able to look after even the pickiest pet. I've been lucky enough to grow up having dogs since I was young and more recently I've been the proud owner of 2 cats and a small parrot. I'm trained in pet care, dealing with behaviours such as leash anxiety and administering medications. 𝐆𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐞: *Kitties* Every cat parent knows that kitties need that extra bit of care and experience that comes from having a close relationship with a cat. Most cats are finicky, many are shy and some are bundles of energy! Knowing when to coax one out with slow blinks and loving patience or when to keep another engaged with exciting toy chases and chin scratches makes all the difference. As a cat owner myself, I've gone through all stages of caring for both shy cats and playful ones, picky eaters and furniture climbers. I know how important routines are and how every kitty is different. Rest assured that I will be there to give yours the perfect mix of care and joy :) *Pups* They say dogs are a man's best friend, but really they are your unconditional life companion! Always there for a jog down a brand new path, cuddles and belly rubs on the couch, or being the first to spot when something's not right- pups just want to make us happy and they deserve the same in return. A good dog walker will be able to sense when your pup is shy about meeting new friends, when they need an extra jog or walk around the park to use up that abundant energy or when they've had enough and need some water and rest under a shady tree. I'm here to do all that and more; to be the walk partner they can always trust and count on for caring for them as you would! :)

I had a wonderful experience with Adam walking my husky mix while I was away recently. My dog is very large, and can be a bit reactive, but Adam was amazing with him. It is clear that he takes so much joy out of the time he spends with the animals and providing them with the best care. I got a message each day, letting me know how the walk went and how my boy was doing, which I really appreciated. It was my first time hiring a walker and it couldn't have gone better. I will absolutely be using Adam next time I have to be away.

Adam is always great with our dog, Cola. She seems genuinely happy to see him when we board her with him. He shares pictures of their adventures together and he treats her like she’s part of his family. I never worry about her when she’s staying with him. Thanks, Adam!

Adam did an amazing job with Teddy. He was nervous at first but after a couple of days I could see that Teddy was fitting in and having a great time. Adam was great with providing consistent updates and answering any questions. Knowing Teddy was in good hands allowed me to relax and enjoy my trip :). I'll definitely look up Adam for my future boarding needs.

I have a fenced in yard and an older cat who is very relaxed and keeps to himself. It's a quiet neighbourhood. When visiting a pet in someone's home the utmost care is always given to be sure that your pet is as relaxed and comfortable as if it were you who was home. I also always make sure everything is left as it was found. I always bring in any packages I see that might be outside or water a particularly loved house plant while I'm there! :) Just leave me any extra instructions you might have!

Information Adam B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or medications I might needs to know about. Past injuries or surgeries they may be sensitive to or even just strange quirky things they do! :) The same goes for cats when it comes to medications. Also, please let me know where their favorite sitting/sleeping/hiding place is :), which toy they love and which they hate!

A typical day

Long walks through the park, exploring new trails or strolling along the river are big favourites with all dogs. I'll make sure yours gets the right amount of exercise and feel like they're hanging out with their second best friend! :)
