Your pets new best friend is here!

Pet care experience

I have a beautiful Large sized dog named Shadow and a friendly cat named Miles. My son is 12 and understands boundaries. My household is fully vaccinated for covid, If your not that's okay and your choice. I have 6 years experience working at animal hospitals in Toronto so am used to handling different temperaments. I'm not afraid of messy situations and can properly handle pets to provide care when needed. I house sat for clients I met through the Animal hospitals. When it comes to your fur babies I will treat them as you would...or better lol. I hope you will give me the opportunity to help keep your pets happy and healthy whenever you cant :) I am quite flexible to meet your needs. ALSO for boarding clients** I make each dogs personal needs a priority so your pet is as happy and relaxed as possible. If I have multiple dogs for the same time frame I promise to provide each dog the TLC they need while your away.

Thanks Sara for taking such good care of Phoenix! She looks like she had so much fun, and you took the time to walk her and take pictures and videos that helped put me at ease. She is nice and tired and we’ll exercised!

Sara was very friendly and clearly a pet lover! My Sr Dane was unfortunately afraid of her stairs. Sara did everything she could to try to troubleshoot and accommodate the problem. I would use Sara again with another dog that doesn’t have such troubles with stairs!

I am Currently doing my dog service business part time, I do have a fulltime day job Monday to Friday so I only except evening drop offs during the week between 5-7pm. This allows me to bond and ensure your fur baby is settled into their temporary home before I have to go to work the next day. I do all feedings/medication administration. My parents who live upstairs do morning walks and give them a mid day break to lounge/play in either my side yard or there larger backyard to keep everyone content until I am home between 4-5pm. Once I am home everyone is fed dinner and after a rest period of 15-30 minutes we head to the local dog park for an hour or 2 of exploration walking and playtime. After that I ensure everyone is cleaned up and tick checked before we settle in and relax at home with lots of cuddles and love. Weekends I am around all day and we go to the local dog park for 1-2 hours in the am & pm with rest and cuddles in between.
