The Kind of Care Your Pets Deserve.

My name is Ingo. Located in Winnipegs Point Douglas area of the North End. I started Sniff Sniff Pet Sitting, so I could have some companionship after my West Highland terrier had passed away in 2013. Our team consists of myself, Victor Ramirez also found on Rover and Susan Inacio (West Kildonan) We currently only accept Small to Medium dog under 40lb/18kg. On occasion the odd larger breed May be acceptable. We REQUIRE 7-10 Advanced booking notice for a meet and greet and possible follow up visit. We look after your furry family members as if they were our own. 2 of us can host your dog in our homes or 2 of us are more than happy to stay with your pet in your home. While you run your errands for the day or travel the world for weeks on end. Growing up with pets has taught us the fundamentals of pet care for many kinds of animals. We have rescued animals in the past that were found stranded, and help with cupcakes Pommy & friends rescue in emergency. My home currently comprises myself, as you can see from the pictures of my many past house guests. They always have BIG SMILES. Susan has a chihuahua named Caleb and a Pomeranian named Dusty. As for night time, your pet can sleep in the queen-size bed were I would probably end up sleeping on the edge. Or in a variety of Pet beds. That is up to you as an owner what you prefer. NOTE: All dogs will undergo Up to 2 complementary assessments/conditioning visits. The first will be a meet and greet. We'll have a discussion about your dog, any specific needs or special instructions. You will then be required to have some you time! For about 30 to 40 minutes, so I can have some us time with the dog on my own and the second visit would be an overnight stay. We are well versed in giving oral medication, snacks, food, cuddles and exercise. We are trustworthy and will follow instructions exactly as you’d like your pet cared for. We will care for your pet like I did mine. We do also enjoy sending pictures and updates to you throughout their time here with us. If you have questions, or would like to discuss a potential meet and greet. Feel welcome to contact me to discuss further. I'd be happy to answer questions you may have & look forward to meeting you and your pet. New updates: Dogs with Disabilities & special needs will be charged an additional charge of $10 per day due to the additional Care required. Short notice Bookings less than 7 days will have a fee of $75 added to the total cost of the Bill.

We had a wonderful experience with Ingo. He took excellent care of our dogs and kept us updated with photos throughout their stay, which we really appreciated. It was clear they were happy, well cared for, and enjoying plenty of walks and attention. They came home relaxed, content, and thoroughly tired from all the fun they had. Thank you, Ingo, for looking after them so well. We would not hesitate to recommend you to others and would be happy to book with you again. 🐾❤️ Thank you, Ingo, for taking such great care of our dogs. We loved receiving the photos and seeing how happy and comfortable they were with you. They clearly had a fantastic time, enjoyed lots of walks and attention, and came home pleasantly exhausted from all their adventures. Knowing they were in such caring hands gave us real peace of mind. We truly appreciate everything you did and would happily recommend you to other pet owners. 🐶😊

Ingo was awesome! He took such good care of our pup - walks, treats, bath, ribbon. She looked so refreshed like she has a spa weekend! Pretty sure she would have been happy if we left her with him. lol. We will most definitely be booking with Ingo again. Thank you for taking such good care of Trixie.

The stay was awesome. My dog totally loved it. I was able to enjoy my vacation thanks to Ingo's pet sitting. My dog being disabled and need extra attention, they were able to take care of him skillfully and without any issues. I would highly recommend him to be considered in case you are looking for pet sitter.

I cant not thank enough to Ingo and his team for taking care of my 14 year old dog while i was away. He was very accommodating to my last minute request and made sure my dog had an introductory meeting to know if he’ll get along. Knut spent a great time there, made friends, and i received a lot of pictures. I cant’ recommend them enough and will be using them from now on. Very happy i found them!
