Kind & fit dog-lover home full-time

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Leona, I live in Mile End and am a dog and animal lover. While my professional background has been working in archives and museums (I currently work from home), I have recently decided to make a career change and would ultimately love to work with animals. I am planning towards going back to school to study animal care. In the meantime, I will be volunteering at the SPCA to gain more experience. Two of my greatest joys are fitness and caring for animals and I would love to combine these two passions through dog-walking/sitting. I would describe myself as calm, attentive, and empathic. While I don't have a dog of my own (I hope to in the near future!) I often dog-sit for my brother and sister's dogs: Millie (corgi), Woody (dachsund), and Dean (pointer/mixed rescue). This being said, I would love to be able to help other busy dog owners take care of their pets. They will be well taken care of with lots of love, attention and walks. I live near two large parks, Parc Jeanne Mance and Mont Royal, which means they will be interacting with other dogs and getting lots of exercise. I have a sweet, gentle indoor tabby cat who gets along well with other cats and dogs. I look forward to hearing from you!

Leona stayed in our place for 15 days to take care of Stoli. She has a natural gift with animals. She was very gentle with him, providing exercise, play, grooming and company. Stoli seemed very happy and she sent us daily updates with pictures during our vacation. We gave her our full trust with our house and our dog and she left the house even better than how we left it, and Stoli is already missing her. Very professional and respectful. We recommend her 100% we simply don’t have any negative comments. Everything went smooth and as planned. She’s very responsible and communicative and we will be booking her in the future for sure.

Leona was very nice and accommodating to our last minute request to watch our two dogs. We were visiting Montreal and were really thankful that she was able to watch them. She sent us updates to and we would be happy to recommend her.

Leona was absolutely fantastic! I would absolutely recommend her to everyone and will certainly be booking her again myself. It was my first time leaving my dog alone, and since he was only 7 months at the time, I was quite determined to find the best possible care for him. After I initially found Leona, we met and saw her apartment. She was very responsive throughout the process, and eager to learn his routine. During the actual stay, she kept me updated on Apollo's well being and answered all of my questions within minutes. She even went as far as to carry on with his training and let him sleep in her bed (which he does at home too)! Bottom line is, Leona has a gift for caring for animals and it is a lovely person. I would absolutely leave Apollo with her again, and you (the reader) should too.
