Pet care experience

Are you looking for a trusted and reliable dog sitting service for your little furry friend? Look no further than my home-based dog sitting business! As a passionate dog lover and experienced pet owner, I provide a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for your dog to stay while you're away. Your pup will enjoy plenty of playtime, exercise, and cuddles in my spacious and fully equipped home. I offer flexible scheduling, competitive rates, and personalized care for each dog that stays with me. You can relax knowing that your dog is in good hands with me. Contact me today to book your dog's stay! I've cared for my own pets and many of my friends' and family's pets for over 15 years. I love training my own dogs and taking them for long walks around the neighbourhood. Having two dogs of my own, I'm prepared to take in an additional two dogs at any one time.

Cooper didn’t want to leave! Thanks for taking such good care of him.

Sonia took in our three-month-old puppy as if she were her own! She uploaded videos, and photos and sent messages daily, socialized her with other dogs, played with her, and walked her daily. She took great care of our dog and went beyond my expectations. I would book again!

Sonia was a lovely lady. She kept me up to date with his time with her. That was very much appreciated. My Elliot played with all her dogs. I had to give him a bath upon returning home. To be honest, I’m not so sure I would entertain leaving Elliot again with a house full of dogs…. But that’s just me. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Safety, trust & environment

All dogs must be friendly. At the very least, I expect them to get along with or happily ignore the other dogs in my house. All dogs in my care receive one-on-one time, whether it's a walk or play time in the yard each day. All dogs will get lazy/rest time throughout the day I prefer dogs who are able to be crated or, at the very least, are able to kept contained when I'm not home. I never leave strange dogs loose together when I'm not there to supervise. I feed your dogs on whatever schedule they are accustomed to. Dogs must be fully vaccinated (particularly for bordatella) and must be on flea and tick treatment

Information Sonia M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special needs or behaviours you dog has. For everyone's safety, all dogs will be sleeping in their crates at night or anytime they can't be personally supervised by me. Please let me know if they're flight risks (it's okay, I have one myself).

A typical day

A typical day for your dogs will be waking at approximately 7 am. They'll get outside potty and play time until breakfast at 8 am and then a 30 min walk around the neighbourhood. Depending on my work schedule and their ability to relax, they'll either get quite time in my office while I work or in their crates. We'll go out to the yard again around noon to potty and to play and then more quiet time for the afternoon (every time I get a break, the dogs get potty/play time) If I'm not working or have a short day, we may get out to a local conservation area for a run too. Dinner is around 5 pm to 6 pm, another walk, more yard time and then bedtime when I go to bed.
