Safety, trust & environment
I have a secure fenced yard at home and a sunny deck for sunbathing and promise to keep your pet on lead when out and about on walks. I can provide a room for them to decompress in or sleep in if needed, and also do a gradual introduction to our cats. I will stay in touch on Rover to let you know how things are going. If I am walking your dog from your house please provide a key in a lock box I will message you at pick up and drop off to let you know how things are. Please provide your vet details in case of emergencies and proof of vaccination and flea, tick treatment.

Information Caroline D. would like to know about your pet
It is important to me that your pet is well socialized with other dogs and preferably does not chase cats. Slinky will sort them out if they havent met a cat before :) She is fearless. Please no unspayed females as Addy was neutered late and gets thoroughly over excited. I would like a detailed feeding and medications if needed plan and any other special considerations. I am also happy to meet up in a park before the sitting to see if your pup and mine get on. Addy is a very gentle social dog and gets on well with most other dogs.
A typical day
My typical day starts with getting up and feeding cats and taking Addy out for a pee break. Then its his breakfast time, then ours. Walk 1 at 8am till 9-9:30am to either monarch park or merril bridge dog park and surrounding streets. Back home and all creatures snuggle in for an am nap, blankets and cozy beds provided. Lunch time is announced by the kitties, all creatures get a snack and pup goes for a quick walk. If its sunny they all like to sunbathe in the garden and on the deck. Play time happens when they or I am are bored or taking a break. Around 3 pm is long walk 2, we will usually hit a dog park on route and there is a secure fenced dog park we can use for your pet to have a run and chase a ball/frisbee, Addy doesn't chase balls etc but loves a squirrel chase. We tend to make the afternoon walk a longer one especially as the weather improves, the beach down at Ashbriges bay is one of our favorite spots and we often go to the cherry beach fenced dog park as well. The Value Pet on Queen is a stop of for a bath if addy is filthy. I am happy to wash you pup too :) Again the kitties tell us its tea time around 4:30pm and all are fed. Chew treats are given at our dinner time and pee breaks as needed happen in the evening and before bed time.

Pet care experience
I love all dogs, I have owned dogs since I got my first golden Hannah when I was 7. I currently have have 1 dog Addy who is 9 years old and a complete sweetheart, he is 1/2 hound and 1/2 German Shepherd and is very good with other dogs. I also have 2 cats who are used to dogs and are OK with new dogs coming into the house if they are OK with cats. I have a room where we can do gradual introductions and I have done this a number of times. Safety for all is my first priority. I love walking and am happy to take your dog out and about at least twice a day, both Merrill bridge dog park and Monarch Park are within minutes and Ashbridges bay and the docklands down the road. I promise to keep them on lead and follow your instructions. I am experienced with senior dog care and can give medications as needed. I have a secure garden and a sunny back back where Addy loves to sleep in the sun. All pets are allowed on beds and sofas and our house is furry so no worries there. I am also happy to take them for a bath if needed and to groom them daily. I'm also happy to crate your pup if that's what they like. I have owned and looked after dogs and cats all my life and guarantee that your doggo will be loved, looked after and spoilt to bits.

Reviews
Caroline has been so great with our young puppy. She’s extremely knowledgeable and we feel safe with our dog in her care.
Caroline was great with our two very shy kitties. She was very good with communicating and very reliable. Highly recommended.
I sent a last-minute request due to health issue and Caroline was so kind to accommodate. Coco had a fun walk in the sun. Would highly recommend!
Great job. Mairi was Alert and Happy when we arrived home. She decided to groom my wife by chewing her hair.
