Information Patricia S. would like to know about your pet

Kindly let me know if: - your pet has any behavioural issues - separation anxiety and how to help ease this - allergies or ongoing illnesses that require them to take medication - needs to avoid people or other animals during our walk For any day care/overnight boarding visits, please: - inform me of the feeding/potty schedule and if medication needs to be given at a certain time - advise me on your pet's sleeping preferences (boarding) I kindly ask that you do not book if: - your pet is currently on flea medication/ shows any signs of fleas, ticks, mites, etc. - is sick with something that is contagious to other dogs such as distemper, dog flu, etc. - shows any signs of aggression towards other dogs. Zoe loves to give extra-close sniffs! I would like to keep your baby safe and mine as well!

A typical day

Your pet can spend some time sunbathing in the plentiful sun spots of my house or take a nice snooze on the couch. If they would like some fresh air, they can pop outside to the backyard. There will be plenty of water readily available at all times. There's plenty of space for your pup to roam around and explore. If they would like some alone time, I have a spare bedroom or they can stay with me in my office. We have a bin full of toys that your pet can also enjoy. I will take your pup on a short potty walk during the day and later in the day, a 30-1 hour walk to Nelson Park, with Zoe as the lead tour guide (weather permitting.) I always give the dogs extra time to sniff around as I know how stimulating it can be for them. If you have any special requests, please let me know and I'd be happy to accommodate them.

Pets

I have a lifetime of pet experience

Pet care experience

** Specializes in care for small to medium sized dogs from puppy to senior stages. Only accepts ONE family at a time. ** I've had different types of pets in my lifetime. From dogs, cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, a turtle, you name it! I'm currently a dog mom to the sweetest Boston Terrier named Zoë! She doesn't bite, rarely barks, and enjoys playing with other dogs! As a dog owner myself, I understand the stress you may have leaving a loved one in someone else's care. I promise to give each pet my love, attention, and care - similar to what I would wish for Zoe if the situation were to be reversed. 🫶🏼

I was very anxious to leave our dog, as usually my friend is available to care for buddy when we travel. This go around my friend wasn’t available, so I chose to use Rover. Thanks to Patricia for taking such great care of buddy and giving us detailed updates. Her own dog Zoe is simply adorable. I highly recommend Patricia as she is extremely kind and caring.

Our dog was incredibly well cared for and Patricia’s dog is a perfect companion for your pup while you are away. Patricia maintained contact twice a day, provided pictures and videos of how our dog was doing during her short stay. We will definitely use Patricia again in the future.
