Information Stephanie P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special requirements/medications/allergies and any certain foods/treats you don't allow. Please be honest with their behaviours as i'd love to help maintain and/or improve their training habits.

A typical day

I love taking doggos on adventures and of course have seatbelts for them! I love going to parks, lakes, trails & off leash area. I have a heated garage for playtime when it’s too cold in the winter, and a property where we all sleep inside together and spend most of our time indoors or outside playing depending on weather conditions.

Pet care experience

"Animals do speak, but only to those who listen" Hi there I'm Steph! ✨ I'm 31 years old and I moved to Thunder Bay from Scotland in 2018. I have been looking after pets basically all my life and started pet sitting in my teens, and since i've lived in TBAY ON I have looked after many doggos, cats and also birds/guinea pigs. After living here for a few years, I started a new position at a kennel just outside of town, and I hated it. I couldn't believe that they were only willing to put on one staff from 7a-3p and another from 3-11p, which meant not only did the pets not get enough attention and play during the day, but they also would sleep alone at night with no one around. Thats when I decided that as soon as I had a house, I would offer daycare & boarding so that I can provide a safe home for pets to stay where they wouldn't feel alone & get lots of cuddles & be able to go on lovely walks as well as having TWO furry friend (or several) to play with! My doggos absolutely love meeting new friends, Sevi is a pure japaneze spitz, now 8yrs old and spayed. Milo is currently 10m old. He adores all doggo's, all cats and all people! My plan is to register little Milo as an Emotional Support Animal! I currently have a large backyard and a nice cool garage for them to relax when it's too hot out in the summer and a heated garage for winter if we need extra space. For new owners please let me know if your pup is potty trained, if they should be crated overnight and if they're a chewer! I have a pet friendly vehicle [Audi 7 Seater] for taking doggo's on walks to lake boulevard etc. with seatbelts for safety and always carry water and a bowl. I also communicate regularly, sending you pictures and videos of your pet [with fun music!] and updating you on how they are doing and what they’re up to! Thank you for reading!

Stephanie took excellent care of our dog, Daisy. 🌼 She was easy to communicate with, attentive to Daisy’s needs, and treated her like she was her own which really put our minds at ease. Will definitely hire her again!
