Availability

I believe in providing a structured yet flexible environment for your dog, making sure their needs are met throughout the day. Your dog will seamlessly fit into my daily routine, which is designed to offer plenty of time for play, relaxation, and attention. Whether your dog is energetic or more laid-back, I will adapt my schedule to keep them happy and comfortable. A typical day in my care starts with a morning wake up with the family, to get them energized and set the tone for the day. After that, we’ll have playtime, whether it's fetch, tug-of-war, or just some cuddles on the couch. I will follow your dog's usual feeding schedule, ensuring they get their meals on time, along with any treats or medications they need. In between, there will be plenty of downtime for naps or simply lounging around. I provide a calm and safe environment, so your dog can relax just like they would at home. We'll also have another walk or play session in the afternoon to keep their energy balanced. Throughout the day, I'll stay connected with you, sending updates and pictures so you can see how your dog is doing and how much fun they’re having. Every dog’s routine is unique, and I’m happy to tailor the day to fit your pet’s specific needs! There are beautiful parks nearby with lots of green space (or snow, depending on the time of year). I provide many photos and descriptive updates during their stay with me. You won’t ever feel like you are wondering what they are up to. I have a fully fenced private yard. Your pet’s safety is of utmost importance to me.

Safety, trust & environment

I understand how important your dog is to you, and I want to reassure you that they will be in the best of hands while you're away. As a passionate and responsible dog sitter, I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and secure environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for.

I take the time to get to know each pet's individual needs, ensuring their routine is maintained and that they receive the attention and affection they deserve. With years of experience working with all breeds and temperaments, you can trust that I will treat your dog with the same care and respect I would give my own. I want you to feel confident and at ease, knowing your pet is not just being looked after, but truly cared for. If you have any special requests or concerns, I’m always happy to discuss them. Your dog will be treated like family while you're away.

Information Isabelle S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has special needs or a certain type of behaviour. My goal is to be well prepared ahead of time to meet your pet’s needs. At this time, I am comfortable hosting for dogs who are trained to do their business outside only, and who don’t experience any significant anxiety.

A typical day

I love to stimulate animals both physically and physically. I have a beautiful park nearby, which leads perfectly into nature with beautiful trees and surrounding areas. I’d be happy to walk them up to twice a day, play ball, etc. I am also perfectly good with animals who love to relax and cuddle. I will adapt to your pets needs. I am all about keeping you as a pet parent updated throughout your pets stay. I provide detailed updates and photos. I am very responsive, as well.

I provide toys, bowls, blankets, and cozy places to relax, so your dog can feel comfortable and at home while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while you’re on vacation, knowing your dog is safe, loved, and well cared for in a family environment. If you’re looking for a safe, loving, and PAWsitive environment where your dog will be treated like part of the family, we would love to help care for them while you’re away.

Cleo loved staying with Isabelle and her family. From the second she walked in, she felt at home. It was clear from every picture that Isabelle shared that our little dog was calm, safe and having lots of fun. Isabelle's communication is exceptional!

Isabelle took care of our dog Willow for several days and Willow had the best time! Isabelle sent lots of pictures and updates everyday which was great and we really appreciated this. Willow had lots of play time and Isabelle gave her so much attention, Willow had a vacation of her own! We would absolutely recommend Isabelle, she is great and really cared for our dog to ensure she had everything she needed.
