Availability

There are no other pets in my home. At the moment, my lifestyle doesn't allow for me to have a dog of my own. Therefore, being a dog sitter/walker is a good option for me to satisfy my need for Canine companionship, and give other people’s dogs the care and attention they need.

Safety, trust & environment

The photos show the park-like setting that is right outside my back door. I have recently fenced my yard. Regardless, I would ensure your pet was safely taken outside when they needed to go outside, on leash if necessary, particularly if your elderly dog or puppy needs extra attention. I love to walk all year round. The Mildmay park is just around the corner. I often visit the Carrick Tract trails to either walk or snowshoe in the winter. I would take care of your pet as if he/she were my own.

Information Chris M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what YOUR wishes are for your dog. For example, are you training to walk nicely at heel? Does your dog need extended exercise, or are they happy to lounge with human company? I would respect your wishes and work with you on whatever level you and your dog need.

A typical day

I have recently fenced my yard and there's a nice field beside my house to play in. I'm certainly willing to assist in whatever training or lifestyle you are choosing for your dog. We can walk around the corner to the park, or drive to some near by trails for a hike through the woods. I would continue whatever training and daily routines (walk/food/poop/pee schedule) your dog is accustomed to, to the best of my ability.

Pet care experience

I have loved, owned, trained and bonded with several dogs over many years. My black lab, Cody was "best in class" one year. We were both very proud 😊My border collie, Liam and I were inseparable. Please see my pictures. I am thoughtful, caring and confident that your pet and I would get along great!

Chris was quick to get back to my messages, was amazing with Marley. She loved being there, was quite content and relaxed. She was exercised, well looked after, and loved. We will definitely be returning.

Chris treats our Lab, Ozzie, like his own. He always gets plenty of walks, playtime, and attention, and we always come home to a very happy dog. We highly recommend Chris.
