Looking for a walking buddy

Pet care experience

I have been caring for dogs, cats, rodents, and reptiles all my life. I have experience with seniors, training, and administering of medication, as well as plenty of experience with reactive dogs. I received reactivity training working with a doggy halfway house, providing training to rescues with behavioural problems keeping them from being adopted out. I also lived with a roommate who had a rescue who was reactive to other dogs and interaction from strangers. That would be the goofy goober in my profile picture. Rescued from a violent life, she has received a mountain of training to improve her quality of life, but still needs a strong, alert handler she can trust to lead her. She has an emotional support cat to help calm her anxiety. My dog walking clients have ranged from seniors and lapdogs to working breeds and pups. I've got you covered, whatever you need.

Cody was amazing! She definitely went above and beyond for us when we left our tempermental cat behind for a few days. She kindly helped us with our backyard plants, touched base with us while we were away and offered to do more! It is so hard leaving pets behind but we were so incredibly grateful that she gave our family member so much attention. We will definitely be reaching out to her again!

Safety, trust & environment

When pets are separated from their owners, it is important to have them immersed in their daily routine in your absence. In my role as their carer, I understand that it is important to limit the stress that separation can cause to your pets and give them the extra attention they will be needing while you are away.

Information Cody S. would like to know about your pet

Just the basics. Particular care requirements and diet restrictions, training level, what to expect for energy, responsiveness to direction, and typical reactions in certain situations. That last bit, particularly if your dog is a rescue and may become nervous or threatened in a situation. I don't want to make them uncomfortable in any way and would like to have the opportunity to identify a potential situation before it happens.

A typical day

With my walking clients, I tend to take different paths each time, incorporating something new into each one. When I go on hiking trips, I also contact my clients to offer a tag-along to a pup or two.

I am settling in to my new home in Ladner, and find myself with more time in my schedule. Finding new dog-walking clients would be an excellent way to get to know the community.
