Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced dog walker!
Please note: I do not offer boarding or dogsitting in my home. This experienced dog-walker and life-long dog lover is home full-time and wants to walk and pamper your dog! I was a volunteer dog walker with Toronto Animal Services for years until the south shelter closed and I've decided to start walking and caring for dogs as a part-time business. I moved to Stratford in 2023 and continue to take care of dogs on a part-time basis. I've been called the dog whisperer. Even timid and nervous dogs are drawn to me (and I to them). Your dog will benefit from lots of exercise, lots of affection and snuggles, and the best parks and trails in Stratford! Oh, and I have the best treats.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I am happy to walk your dog in your neighbourhood or take him or her to the Stratford Dog Park. I am happy to work with all dogs.
Ratings and reviews
Holly was fantastic with our dogs while we were away, and we look forward to having her back again! She was very communicative, loving with our fur crew and following all instructions we left for her.
Holly is wonderful! She was able to manage all 3 of our puppies while we were out for the day. They were all fed, walked and happy when we returned. We’ll definitely use Holly again when we’re back in the county. :)
Holly was terrific. She clearly loves dogs and our boy loved her. Thanks Holly!
Holly was so fantastic with our high-energy, anxious dog. I am so happy we found her and I can’t recommend her enough!
Holly welcomed Champ into her home happily. She followed up with me in the evening to let me know how he was doing. Champ was happy to see me when I picked him up and he seemed comfortable and happy with the time he spent in Holly's care. I asked Holly if she would like to see Champ again and she said how much she liked him and said he was welcome to come back.
Holly made my dog feel very welcome! He is generally anxious but she made him feel calm, navigated introductions and building a friendship with her own dog, and takes him for lots of walks. Holly is also very friendly to humans and a pleasure to work with!
