Compassion for every critter <3
Pet care experience
I was raised on a farm around many different animals and dogs which kindly molded me to be compassionate and patient with all our furry friends! (Or not furry!) I’ve worked in boarding facilities and have experience in some grooming, nail trimming, and administering medications. I will always bring a first aid kit to all visits (yes even walks!) and know how to preform cpr on dogs and have basic first aid knowledge. I will be offering boarding in home by the start of fall, unfortunately while our home is undergoing some minor renovations, we can’t risk the safety of your animals and will be only doing stays or visits at your home! I’ll have my profile updated as soon as this changes! I am currently apprenticing under a dog trainer in puppy training and behavioral modification focusing on fear reactivity! I spent the last 10 years training my pup with anxiety and fear reactivity so I am no stranger to those behaviors. If your dog has special needs just be transparent and we can even do a meet and greet before hand to make sure I have your trust and your dog does as well. I know how difficult it can be for some dogs or cats to be watched outside of their comfort zone. I’m happy to make accommodations for their needs always. <3
About Lacroix W.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Depending on the needs of your animals I’ll be keeping them enriched and happy! Walks, playtimes, and I have enrichment toys I’m happy to bring to your home! As stated in my experience section, I’m happy to accommodate your animals needs as best I can!
Information Lacroix W. would like to know about your pet
It’s important to me to know about your dogs limitations, illnesses, or triggers! If your animal is afraid of fire works, has separation anxiety, is reactive to certain animals, people or environments I need to know these things ahead of time and potentially do a meet and greet for fearful or human reactive pets! Please let me know about any allergies as well!
A typical day
I love to walk dogs on the trails by my house in the Waterloo Forrest! I walk the trails a lot so I know great ones for all types of dogs and their limitations! I’m also happy to just walk them on their regular route! Always a fan of enrichment activities, running, fetch or just relaxing together if they are tired out!

Lacroix can watch in your home
Availability
I am a full time artist, so I am home all week! If I am watching your animals overnight/days at a time, I will be making trips home here and there to work and care for my animals at home, but will always be back within 2-4 hours! If your animals need more intense watching or care please let me know and we can work together to arrange that! I’m happy to bring my work to your house if needed.
