The best cuddles and care <3

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Grace but I go by Rowan, it’s nice to meet you! I have had family pets all my life and have worked professionally with dogs at day care and boarding facilities for 5 years where we not only took great care of our furry friends throughout the day, we also worked with the dogs to reinforce good behaviours to maintain well mannered dogs. I have also worked at a vet clinic, ans well an interning at several zoos, and have completed my AAS in zookeeping. Throughout this I’ve watched over many different dogs and cats of all sizes and dispositions, as well as many other domestic and exotic animals. I particularly love caring for reptiles! Treating animals with utmost respect and love is my priority! I myself currently have a mischievous little long haired grey cat, two beautiful mice, and an adorable little regal jumping spider. I am entirely open to working with any animal you might have. Thank you for considering me, and I hope you have a lovely day! Please note before booking that I have a full time position working with the humane society and will be unavailable for 9 hours 5 days a week. So long as that is something you believe we can work around, i’m more than happy to take care of your kiddos!! Thanks!

Never before have I had someone bring their own questions when doing a meet and greet without dogs. Grace (aka Rowan) was so amazing. We got frequent updates on our dogs (who are normally so nervous). They were cuddly and playful and looked so relaxed. Could not be happier knowing we had someone so wonderful taking care of our pups ☺️

Grace was absolutely great. She was extremely communicative, responsible, and thorough. When I arrived home my house was clean and my pup was a happy boy. Would recommend to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dogs.

Rowan was amazing at making sure my elderly dog was well taken care of and provided me daily updates. Even went above and beyond and shoveled my sidewalk!

She was very thorough and communicated amazing. I love all the pictures and very detailed in the happenings for the day! No question I will use her again in a heartbeat for dog walking, dog sitting, or anything! My dogs love her and she was very good with walking my Great Dane!

Safety, trust & environment

I am unfortunately unable to provide home based services at this time as my home is full of my own pets and unfortunately lacks room to accommodate others. As to care in my client’s home, a home is personal and deserves to be treated with respect and care, left exactly the same or better than it was. Following all instructions and care procedures is very important for me to ensure the pet’s wellbeing and safety. In another home, I spend the vast majority of time there actively interacting and building trust and positive bonds with your beloved friends to make sure they have a fun and anxiety-free time in my care!

Information Grace G. would like to know about your pet

Please do make sure to let me know about any medical conditions or special needs your pet may have so I can accommodate and ensure their safety and happiness!

A typical day

I love taking pups out for walks and/or jogs and playtime in a yard or even indoors! I’m absolutely open to taking kiddos out to hiking trails as well, which I find is great for high energy dogs and provides great opportunities for positive reinforcement based training to maintain and improve good behaviours. Creating enriching toys and puzzles is also great fun and wonderful mental stimulation for your pets. Cuddly animals are also wonderful! Belly rubs galore is absolutely lovely in my book! I’m open to engaging in whatever activities your pets love most!
