Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Orleans Pet Sitter
My family and I have spent years taking care of a wide variety of dogs, from puppies to seniors, Chihuahuas to Great Danes, and everything in between. I live near both on and off leash dog parks in the Ottawa suburbs with a fenced in back yard, so I can handle anything your dog needs to be comfortable. Our kids are 11 & 13 and are both comfortable and respectful with our guests.

Ratings and reviews
Wonderful home for our 2 poodles, thank you Ben! Ben cares about the dogs and works hard to keep them safe and to give them play time. Highly recommend!
The dogs were obviously well cared for by Ben. He shared pics and antidotes with us while we were gone. Would use him again, and highly recommend him for caring for your dog.
Like usual Ben and his family are super with Ti-Fine.
Milo had been ill recently and was having anxiety. Benjamin and his family ensured he felt safe and took care of him. Thank you
Thank you so much for taking care of Misty! You showed care and sensitivity and made every effort to make Misty comfortable and safe in your home. It was a whole family effort and was extremely appreciated. Your pictures and notes throughout her stay help me relax knowing Misty was happy.
Overall good service,dog gets walks, some pictures of his stay. Thanks Ben

Schedule
I work from home with somewhat flexible hours, so I am able to easily walk any guests before, after, and at lunch. With a fenced in back yard, I can also let them out back to rest or relieve themselves pretty much any time.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Depending on the pet, either I let them wander the house during the day, or I bring with me in my office or as I move through the house, based on their personalities. I would take them on at least 2 walks a day, ideally to the off-leash park nearby, but if they do not react well to other dogs I would keep them at the closer on-leash park. At night I would have them sleep in the room with me, either on the bed or off, generally based on their preference.
A typical day
Depending on your dog's recall, comfort levels, and dog reactivity, I can either take them to the dog park to play fetch with them, give them on or off leash walks around my local parks, or play with them in my back yard.
