Pet care experience
My name is Shonagh and I live in Niagara Falls, Ontario with my Argentino Dogo, Nyko (my own dog has plenty care at home, so don't worry... he will never go neglected while I'm out and about with your pets!) I am offering to either come walk your dog when needed or drop in to look after them when you need it! I've always been an animal lover; I've been around them my entire life (many shapes, sizes, breeds and types.) I have plenty of experience caring for dogs; my father has been a breeder since I was a young girl which allowed me to help with and constantly walk puppies. This created a life long affection for animals. I understand how to be attentive and diligent with the care, responsibility and mindfulness that all creatures deserve. I also possess the good judgment, patience and keenness required to suit distinctive needs of diverse personalities. For years, I've been a go-to source for acquaintances, friends and family when they need somebody to walk or sit their furry comrades which has further allowed me to become mindful and versed when it comes to diverse temperaments/personalities! So relax, now you can feel at ease knowing your treasured sidekick is in capable hands; whether you're at work, sick, on vacation or wherever it is you may need to be! I am very flexible! Most of my life revolves around caring for and showering animals with attention and love so essentially, I've had plenty of years to develop an understanding on how to communicate and bond with them! I have also had the approach of 'do unto other pets as you'd have done unto yours' approach to pet care - so once I'm aquainted with their individual requirements/needs/specifics, they get the 5 star treatment I would give my own!
Reviews
Shona is very trustworthy. She took great care of Lily! I’m really glad I found her!
Shona came through at the eleventh hour when a major family birthday coincided with my puppy getting spayed. I felt so grateful to have her to count on to make sure my pup had company and care. She brought treats and even took time to give her an epic brushing. So grateful for the help.
Shona is a lifesaver! After she took amazing care of our kitties we had her come and help out with the pup. Our animals all love her, and I feel totally confident with them in her care.
Shona did an excellent job making sure our kitties were looked after while we were away. She was also great about sending photos and checking in. I’ll definitely use her services again.

Information Shona A. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed or size preferences, I respect and love all types! The only information I will require is: Are they sociable with humans and/or other dogs? Do they have any special needs/requirements? Do they have food aggression? What kind of personality do they have/preferences? Are there any specific training techniques you are practicing that I need to abide? Can they have treats and if so what kind? If I'm sitting for them - what kind of toys do they like?
A typical day
Your dog and I will walk around town, allowing them get out any pent up energy they may have bottled up! We can wander various neighbourhoods to provide the mental stimulation they need. Adventures through parks and trails can give them a whiff of all of the smells the outside world has to offer! I also have a lot of experience with seniors, adults and puppies; therefore, hyperactive or calm, old or young, trained or in training; I can be adaptable to whatever needs are specific to your dog. I can also: Care for your dog in your home while you are away and ensure they receive proper care (feeding, walking, any medication that may be needed) Assure that your home remains maintained/clean while they are in my care Go for runs Bathe your dog Play with them Show them a great time Care for any non-canine animals (cats, birds, reptiles etc) you may also have Mix things up to keep things exciting for them for repeat clients (maybe even go for a swim, I have a 15m long leash for swimming to give both freedom and security, if they fancy it! Who wants to smell the same old smells on the same old trees each walk! Am I right, pups?) and get the paw print seal of approval from your pet Essentially, whatever routine suits your specific needs, I'm all-embracing!
