Pet care experience

Heartfelt Dog-sitting

I have many years of pet care experience. I raised my own dog from a 4 week old pup (he had been abandoned) until he passed away. I have experience with injured pups and helped my own dog with rehabilitation for two knee surgeries. I also care for friends dogs regularly. I am the favourite go to dog auntie and I will treat your pup as I treated my own extremely spoiled pup.

Denyse was great with Fergus. He was tired and happy after getting to hang with her for the long weekend. Thanks, Denyse!

It was our first time using Rover and Denyse made us feel comfortable and kept us in the loop with day to day updates on our pup. So very appreciated and would highly recommend Denyse.

Denise was so great with my dog. He can be a bit anxious and her first time meeting him he was in a bit of a cranky mood after a 3 hour drive. She made him feel right at home and was very patient with him. I appreciated how responsive she was to messages and the pictures she sent me too. My dog clearly had a great time with her and I'm grateful to have found such a nice sitter 😊

Schedule

I work part-time for 8 hour shifts when I am not working from home so your pup needs to be able to be ok for 8 hours on my work days. I am off in the evening and available to look after the needs of your dog.

Safety, trust & environment

At my home pets rule. Pets are allowed and encouraged to be on the furniture. I live a 2 minute walk from the dog park and an extensive network of trails for walking your dog. I can also adapt the type of exercise to your dogs specific needs. Having dealt with a special needs dog I am quite proficient with dealing with all the special needs your dog may require.

A typical day

Typically I do minimum 3x20 minute walks per day sometimes more depending on the day. A morning, afternoon and evening walk. This does not include inside play if they like fetch or tug or pee breaks. I also live very close to the dog park (If that is something your pup normally does) I also like to take them on car rides to new places in town like the beach. Definitely some snuggles if your dog loves snuggles. Bed time I have a huge king-size bed to share!

Please let me know of any quirks special to your furbaby that I may need to pay attention to. It is good to know if your pup is reactive and what that looks like for them so I can adjust accordingly.
