Trusted care for your fur baby

Pet care experience

I started taking care of my grandparents dogs when I was 12 years old. That was the start of my love for animals of all ages. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their fur babies. Over the years, I’ve lovingly raised 4 cats and 2 dogs. I’m currently without a fur baby of my own, but I often take care of my grand fur baby. I’d enjoy the opportunity to give families the peace of mind to leave their fur baby in safe, nurturing, reliable, trusted care.

Debra took such great care of our girl. She provided updates each day and made sure Fanta got lots of outside time and walks. She even accommodated a change in drop off when we ran into a travel snag. Would recommend her for sure!

I highly recommend Debra. She went above and beyond. Great communication. I had no issues with leaving our dog with her. She was so wonderful with our dog. I will definitely use her again.
