Highlights
Pet care experience
Lifelong dog lover at your service!
I've owned and cared for dogs throughout my life, and am currently the proud owner of an 8-year-old beagle, Stella. She's very friendly with lots of friends and playmates, so our home is well adapted to four-legged visitors and guests :)

Another great stay for Krypto, Trish is always great with him!
Trish is the best sitter we've ever had! We boarded Krypto for 3 days which became 4 due to unforeseen circumstances and Trish was lovely about everything. She treated Krypto like family and is our goto now. We will definitely be back and we highly recommend her services
Trish took wonderful care of my pup Edgar! I was sent regular updates and photos of him throughout the day, and Edgar sure did enjoy the company of her dog Stella ! Will certainly book with Trish in the future ! Thanks so much 😊
Very friendly and super responsive! Took great care of Luna while we were away, made sure she exercised, ate well and played! Kept us at ease while away.
Thank you Trish for looking after Paddy so well. He loved being part of your family over Xmas, little brother to Stella x you made him part of your family and kept us up to date with lots of pics and stories daily. He will see you again soon ❤️
Trish was absolutely great with our dog Busky. We were kept updated on his stay as we had requested. He had great walks in the mornings and afternoons and never missed out on a chance to snuggle on the couch of the bed. She will definitely be our choice for our future boarding option. Thank you Trish! Busky will miss the time with you I am sure.

Schedule
I'm a freelance translator who works from home, with a flexible schedule and generally light workload, leaving me plenty of time to look after other dogs besides my own, including long walks and fun outings to the park.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a great set-up to board dogs in my home: I live with my dog (8-y.o.) and cat (10-y.o.) in a bright, clean suite with a nice balcony in a very pet-friendly apartment complex in the North End of Halifax. There's a semi-private courtyard out front where dogs like to congregate and socialize, I'm in a very walkable neighborhood close to downtown, the Commons and the waterfront, and I have a safe, reliable car that I use to take my dog and others on fun outings to the park (Point Pleasant Park is a favorite destination). In addition, I'm certified in Pet First Aid by St. John Ambulance (Oct. 29, 2023 - certificate available for viewing in photos).

A typical day
When looking after Stella and any other dogs in my care, I like to make the most of the weather conditions. In practice, this means getting out to enjoy long walks in the park (Point Pleasant, Seaview, Hemlock Ravine are favorites) on good weather days and trips to the beach on those hot summer ones. When it's rainy, there's still plenty of fun to be had at home playing the games and activities that the dogs seem to be gravitating towards, based on their mood and energy level.
