Pet care experience
I have always been passionate about dogs, including their training and obedience. I believe a dog must be well balanced to be truly happy. Part of a well balanced dog is regular exercise, mental stimulation, and social interaction. These needs will be satisfied with my services. I provide both drop in and walk services, back-to-back if requested. I have owned and trained dogs for over 15 years, as my first dog was a Siberian Husky it was a steep learning curve! I currently own two dogs, a Black Labrador and a German Shepherd. I plan to title my German Shepherd in Novice Scent Detection soon, and my Black Labrador enjoys practicing agility in my backyard. Both are well balanced dogs who walk loose leash despite any distractions. My walking services include: - (Adult dogs only) A 30 or 60 minute walk at a brisk pace around your neighbourhood (including parks). - (Puppies only): Up to a 20 minute walk, depending on the age of the puppy. This is to protect their soft joints from over exercise and help prevent future expensive vet bills! Puppies will also receive play time at their home and numerous socialization opportunities for the remaining 10 minutes. - Dog bags are provided free of charge. My drop-in services include: - Feeding (if requested) - Potty breaks for dogs and puppies - social interaction and structured play for dogs, puppies, and cats. - For puppies only: one five minute walk around the neighbourhood.
Reviews
We really like Elyse, and so does Billie!
Eddie was well looked after by Elyse for his extended walks, she kept him on his best behaviour for the walks and played retrieve with him in our back yard to further tire him out, he has lots of energy. I will definitely rebook Elyse when we need help again and would recommend her to anyone.
Elise was very professional and took great care of our cats while we were camping for a week. It was clear when we met her how comfortable she was with animals, and how much she enjoys pet-sitting. Thanks for putting our minds at ease while we were away!
Elyse is great with daisy! She's very reliable and every time she comes daisy is very excited to get out with her! I recommend!

Safety, trust & environment
If choosing to board, have a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs to keep your dog company. In addition, I also have a dog treadmill which can be used to burn off extra energy in any dog breed!
Information Elyse P. would like to know about your pet
No breed or size is too tough. Dogs and cats must be up to date on vaccinations (proof required). I would like to know if the dog has any history of aggression or biting. I would also want to know where they prefer to be pet, on the belly or on the ears!
A typical day
We will explore around your neighbourhood, and if requested we will go to parks and on trails. Well behaved dogs will get treats or a toy reward during their walk, boosting the fun factor for them! Let me know if your dog has any treat allergies or intolerances.
