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.

Chris was fantastic with our pup! Attentive and caring to her needs …..and we loved the daily photos of her day :) He created a safe and fun environment for her and we have no hesitation at all for Leia to visit again. Thanks so much Chris!

Very professional. Emasculate conditions for pet, including fenced backyard. Extremely easy to communicate. My dog and us got a tour of the house and surroundings and my dang was happy to stay back when we stepped out of the door leaving him back. Usually my dog also try to walk out with us, but he happily agreed when we said he is staying back. He is on the higher side on price, but he takes only one dog at a time usually. I would recommend Chris to everyone.

Schedule

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.

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.

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.
