Pet care experience

Hello! I am working towards my massage therapy certification and have a few days a week free. I would love to help care for your pup by taking them for walks, to the dog park, or spending time with them in your home. I had a dog growing up and even though she's passed on, she's left me with a deep love and compassion for pups both big and small. I have experience helping take care of animals from friends and family, and also love taking trips to the dog park to interact with the animals and with the owners. I will also be attentive to your furry friends well-being, and make sure their needs are met, as well as ensuring we both have fun along the way.

I heard about Derek and how amazing he was through a friend. From the moment I contacted him he was excited to meet our new puppy Kona. Kona loves him! He sent us picture updates about his time with her and

Highly recommend Derek! He has been coming for drop in visits to look after our new puppy for a few weeks now. He is reliable & trustworthy, easy to communicate with, and great with our two dogs.

Information Derek W. would like to know about your pet

I love hearing owners talk about their dog. Owners always have a special connection with their pup and you can learn a lot about each of their personalities from one another. It is nice to know if the dog is jumpy or nippy towards strangers or in certain circumstances, like around children or in the dark.

A typical day

I think this could change on a case by case basis, but I'm down for anything from a simple walk around the neighbourhood, to a quick car ride to the nearest dog park or field to play fetch or run around with them for a while
