Dogs are part of my whole life

I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember. When I was born, my parents already had two Dobermans, and after they passed, we welcomed a Weimaraner into our family — and later, his son. Around the age of 18, I adopted a Dachshund, followed a few years later by a lovable Pitbull. My mom also took in a rescue from the street, so our home was always full of wagging tails and happy paws. In 2021, I moved to Canada and made the hard decision to leave my elderly Dachshund with my mom. He was deeply bonded with her and already in his senior years, and I knew it was the best choice for his comfort and happiness. Now, after a few years of settling in, I’ve decided it’s time to welcome a dog into my home again — and that’s how Akira, my miniature Dachshund, came into my life. I work from home full-time, which means I’m able to give pets in my care plenty of attention, companionship, and consistent routines throughout the day. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments and understand how unique each pup can be. Whether it’s playtime, quiet cuddles, or long walks, I truly love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe and loved.

Armando is the BEST!!! My puppy right away was wagging his tail and looked comfortable from the start. I felt so much peace knowing that my puppy was going to looked after so well. Thank you Armando for looking after my puppy 🐶 as your own. I look forward to booking again soon. Wishing you continued blessings of great success and happiness!

Schedule

I work from home, so I’m with my dog Akira all day. We take breaks throughout the day for playtime, cuddles, and fresh air. It’s easy for me to fit in extra feedings, or whatever your dog might need. Having dogs around just makes the day better, and I love giving them the attention they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets the same way I’d want someone to care for my own, with love, patience, and attention to their individual needs. Whether it’s sticking to their usual schedule, giving them space to relax, or making sure they get lots of play and affection, I adjust my care to what works best for them.

Pets

A typical day

My fenced backyard is perfect for safe playtime, where dogs can run, chase toys, or enjoy a game of fetch. I also love taking pets to the nearby park for walks, sniffing adventures, and a little socializing if they’re comfortable with it. We can mix in some light training, towing ball, or just relaxing in the sun if they prefer.

Armando can host up to 1 dog per day
I’d like to know their feeding schedule, exercise needs, potty breaks and any medications. Are they crate-trained or free-roam indoors? How do they interact with other pets or new people? Any special behaviours, quirks, or anxieties I should be aware of? Also, please confirm emergency contact info and your vet’s details. This will help me ensure your pets are safe, comfortable, and happy during their stay. Thank you!!
