Availability
I work from home so I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to looking after dogs. Depending on you and your dog’s needs, I’m more than happy to adapt according to whatever schedule is preferable to them.

About Aparna A.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m looking after your dog at mine or yours, they will always be treated with respect and love. Each dog has its own unique style of needing to feel loved and I make sure to attune to that so they come back to you as though you never left!
Home
Information Aparna A. would like to know about your pet
I have an intact male dog who keeps to himself mainly and plays well with other dogs when he’s in the mood. He’s socialised and neutral but if your dog isn’t comfortable around intact males then please bear in mind that I may not be the right choice for you!
A typical day
A day in the life looks like this: We wake up, go for a walk first thing in the morning so the dogs can relieve themselves and burn off the energy they’ve accumulated overnight. They have breakfast upon their return and have access to the balcony or do zoomies around our apartment. I include a lot of mental enrichment like snuffle or lick mats, trick training, hide and seek throughout the day to keep your dog entertained and happy. In the late afternoon we go for a second walk and then come home and have dinner. Lots of cuddles (if wanted) are freely handed out throughout the day too because it’s hard being away from home!

Your dog’s home away from home
Pet care experience
I’ve been drawn to animals from a young age and have had a dog in my household since I was a child. Being around them and looking after them comes naturally to me! I started off my pet care journey as a dog walker in Amsterdam, then moved back to Australia and did pet sitting there and now I petsit in Canada. I have experience administering medication to senior dogs (both my family dog, Bella, and my foster dog, Pi, needed it) as well as handling unfixed dogs. When I got my own puppy, I taught him a lot of “party” tricks but I’m also familiar with certain force free training techniques to help dogs overcome their triggers and be calmer, especially in new environments. My top priority is giving your dog the love and attention they need whilst being away from their home environment and ensuring that their needs are met so that you can leave knowing they’re well cared for!
Reviews
We really appreciated having Aparna care for our dog and were so happy he was in such good hands. She paid close attention to every detail and asked thoughtful questions about his diet and daily schedule to make sure she could provide the best possible care. She also kept us updated with photos, which gave us peace of mind and made us happy to see how well he was doing. We were also glad to see that he got along well with her dog, Chief!
Took very good care of our dogs and home. Would highly recommend
Macy loves this home. They are patient with our old girl and take her on adventures.
Once again great service and our senior dog was really happy when I picked her up.
