Pet care experience

Walks are just better with a dog!

Growing up we always had dogs and cats - and other pets too! I grew up right alongside our first family dog, a yellow lab named Raggs. We also had Cesky terriers and a vizsla over the years.... and a black cat aptly named Tarzan. My experience ranges from on and off leash walks, to pet sitting, baths, nail trimming - I've done it all!

Our dog Ajax is excited every time we tell him he is going to David's which tells us everything we need to know. Besides that David is very friendly and easy to chat with.

Griffin couldn't be happier when I picked him up, he was fully watered and fed. Very clear David did a wonderful job, I would certainly trust him with Griffin again.

David is dependable, kind, and good with Pets. I have know him for 25 years and saw him take good care of four different of his family dogs. Whenever I am travelling and need someone to look after my dog: David is my first choice.

If you are looking for a reliable, trustworthy dog walker/caregiver you needn’t look further. David has looked after and walked our dog on numerous occasions and he love’s him. Archie, our bouncy labradoodle loves his walks with David, especially when it includes the chuck it at the dog park. David has also had Archie as a houseguest and he was happy and tired when we got him home. I have no hesitation in recommending David.

David is an attentive and diligent person, who has a lifetime of experience caring for animals. His most recently family dogs were both special needs dogs, and David helped take excellent care of them. He is well-organized and active, and would be very well suited to helping other people care for their pets.

Schedule

I work from home 5 days a week. I like to travel so haven't committed to having a pet here full time but love the companionship and truly feel that every walk is made better with a dog.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm very comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I have a fenced deck for outdoor relaxing, and an un-fenced front lawn for on-leash bathroom trips. I am in a very walkable neighbourhood by a lake, easy for lunchtime strolls and midday breaks. I'm in a split-level home so there's always going to be some stairs coming and going.

A typical day

I am walking distance to several lakes/trails, and a short drive from Shubie Park off-leash area if you are hoping for off-leash exercise for your pup.

Let me know how your dog is on-leash alone as well as with other leashed dogs. Also, please let me know about off-leash comfort levels, and their recall! Are there any particular routes or trails your pup enjoys?
