Sophisticated English Dog Valet
Pet care experience
Hello, I am an n̶e̶w̶c̶o̶m̶e̶r̶ old dog on these shores and I am very much looking forward to becoming a firm friend with your dog. I left an amazing career in England in which I cared for dogs all day for a fantastic doggy day care company based in South West London, England. Keeping your dog happy is an absolute for me. I've been told by a few old clients of mine that their dog is often waiting by the door for the sound of my van crunching the stones on the gravel driveway, only to fall into a world of unabashed excitement when they confirm it's "The Playtime Human!". After spending many stressful years behind an office desk, I can confidently admit I am almost as excited too! I currently live in Kitsilano, right next to Connaught Pk and a step away from the Arbutus Greenway. Whilst these are my ideal places for walking, I am well aware your dog may have their preferred route. I will walk your dog ensuring they done their business (nobody wants an unfulfilled, and trapped, housemate), had fun and is hopefully satisfied until you get home. As it rains here waaay more than it does back in London, I will always have a towel with me.
Reviews
Scott was wonderful! He asked questions that even I had forgotten on our meet-n-greet. He kept complimenting me on my large breeds clam and gentle demeanour. Would book again.
The one regret i have about moving is not being able to have Scott walk Sophie in the afternoons. We will miss Scott and we highly recommend him to anyone looking for a kind hearted, trustworthy, dog lover to care for their pet. Thank you Scott!
Scott is so good with Sophie. He shows up on time takes great care of Sophie and his tales of the walks are delightful! 10 out of 10 recommend.
Five stars!! As always, Scott has provided unmatched loving and reliable care for our two dogs. And his photos taken of the pups during daily walks suggest he may have a backup career as a photographer! Thank you again, Scott!!!

Safety, trust & environment
I will follow any instruction you give me regarding the welfare of your dog in your home. As I have a young daughter, I don't currently board nor do any house sitting.
Information Scott W. would like to know about your pet
I have no particular preference with regards to the breed. The only things I need to know are; How they get on with other dogs/cats/squirrels? Do they bark when somebody knocks or rings the doorbell? Favourite Netflix binge?
A typical day
....he'll take you for a walk in the park, a stroll along the beach or maybe a good sniff around the local neighbourhood. And if you're lucky, maybe a squirrel hunt or two! All this could be yours including, smooshie faces, nose boops, belly rubs and butt scratches!

Availability
I have a young daughter (born late 2020) who takes up a fair bit of my time and will occasionally join me on our walks.. This means my working day is from 9am - 2pm, Monday to Friday. My preferred area is between Broadway to 16th and Trafalgar to Burrard, but I will happy to consider nearby locations. I am unable to facilitate same day requests from new clients as I always insist on meeting both dog and human/s prior to commencing a walking schedule.
