Wanting to make new furfriends
I have a huge love for dogs. When I see a dog I usually greet the dog before the person. I was a fur mamma for seven wonderful years to a small shitzu mix named Jinx who I lost in 2024. . I also have more than 7 years experience dog walking, and dog sitting. I usually take my fur friends for walks at least two or three times daily sometimes more depending on the weather, and how many walks they feel like that day. My fur friends have complete run of the house, they sit where they like, sleep where they like, and eat their meals and treats where they like, even if it’s on my furniture. They get so much love and attention, and have a lot of fun while in my care. I live in a walk up townhouse condo with a very small fenced in yard (not ideal for big fur friends) and lots of nearby places for walks. My fur friends are royalty in my home and that’s exactly how they are treated. If my fur friend is more comfortable sleeping on my bed at night I have no problem with that, If my fur friend is more comfortable in there kennel or their own bed that’s fine to. My home is very calm, and quiet, no children, and non smoking. I will board two fur friends at a time as long as they are from the same family.

Schedule
I work from home so I’ll have plenty of time to walk, play with and love your fur babies. I never leave my fur friends alone while they are in my care. I won't take my fur friends to any off leash parks as I have anxiety regrading the health and safety of unleashed parks. Not to worry I can and will provide lots of activity and exercise for my fur friends .
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I prefer my fur friends to have a harness for walks because if they pull hard the pressure from the collar could do damage to their throats, if they pull hard from a certain angle the collar could slip off. I don’t like leaving things to chance so please make sure you bring a harness, if you don’t have one or forget it at home I have a couple of different sizes hopefully one will fit your fur baby. I prefer to follow my fur friends lead if they want to go for a walk we go for a walk, if they want to sit quietly and cuddle that’s what they get or if they just want to sit by themselves that’s fine too. I am strictly non force, ex. I’m fine with brushing your fur babies teeth but if they are not comfortable with me doing it I will not force them, if they don’t want to go for a walk I will not force them to. I will not use any shock collars as I do not approve of them, nor are they even allowed in my home, nor anything that causes so much as a little discomfort to my fur friends. I don’t believe in yelling at my fur friends as that just creates anxiety, and worsens bad behaviour. Any behaviour concerns will be dealt with in a stern human, compassionate manner. If you choose me to be your fur baby’s sitter weather for a few hours or a few weeks I’m more comfortable boarding them here at my place. If you don’t want your fur baby having any thing other than what you provide for them, then they will only have what you provided for them. I will follow your instructions completely. Should you choose me as your fur baby’s sitter Please bring something with your sent. Like you and I our fur babies get homesick, and anxious especially when they are with unfamiliar people in an unfamiliar environment, having something with your sent on it will help comfort them. Ex. Pillow case, favourite scarf, a sweater. Please bring enough food for however long they will be in my care.
A typical day
I usually take my fur friends for a morning walk, an afternoon walk and an evening walk if they want. I live by a really nice man made lake that has about 2.7 km of walking trail and the perfect place for lots of really nice pictures which I will be sending you a lot of. If the weather isn’t good then I am more than happy to play in doors with my fur friends. And of course there will be lots of cuddle time if that’s what my fur friends want. My fur friends always have lots of fun with me.
