About: I have owned and raised dogs and cared for dogs for at least a decade. I’ve been a proud parent to a Siberian Husky and two Australian Shepherds. One of my shepherds has had a litter in the past and I successfully cared for that litter. I am on summer break as a teacher. I am available everyday in July and August. During the school year I am available weekends and nights. I ensure pets have a positive experience by taking dogs on walks, to the dog park, out in the backyard for playtime, and games inside the house. Fun time can also be chilling in the house watching tv!

“Elise is fantastic!”


“She’s great! Left my two dogs with her for the day while I had a work thing and they were so tuckered out when I got home! Definitely gonna book again whenever we need it next!”


About: I have thirty-plus years experience as a pet owner. I have always cared for my dogs with the greatest compassion, having raised Great Danes, a Chihuahua, various Hounds and many more. I have raised most of my dogs from puppies and have taken great care and compassion in their final days. I am very gentle and compassionate with our furry friends, having great love for them. And every time I meet a new fur-angel, they immediately sense that I am a friend. Some people describe me as a dog-whisperer. My schedule here at 'Fiona and Friends' is 7 days a week, 24/7. I am fully dedicated to the care of your pet. Any breaks in this schedule will be posted far in advance. I have a fenced, secure, back yard. I have a large crate available, if required for your pet, as well as an enclosed sitting room if your beloved pet needs space. As well, Fiona, our gentle and friendly Whippet Hound, will help keep your fur baby entertained all day long. Fiona loves company! We have doggy floor beds, and two couches to stretch out on (or cuddle up). And of course, I take the utmost care when walking around the south end of Gananoque. I will also provide you a link to a short Youtube video that showcases the house, backyard, and walking environment. This will be made available to you upon enquiry or booking.

“I am so incredibly thankful for her. She was professional very friendly and very understanding when I was so late. I would definitely trust her again with my dog.”


“We were in a pinch and needed someone to watch our sweet girl bella she is a 6 month old puppy. We were very nervous seeing we weren’t from the area. From the start Madison was great! informative, reassuring & caring. From the minute we dropped her off we knew we picked the right person to watch over bella while we were gone for the day! While we were worry free Madison also fed bella for us and kept her on a potty schedule so she did not have any accidents. Madison was also big on bella’s safety which was so reassuring we will definitely be using her again if we are in need of a sitter!!! 10/10 recommend!!”


About: I'm well versed in handling dogs of all ages as I grew up taking care of a black lab, yellow lab, schnauzer, standard poodle and labradoodles. Additionally, I competed in dog knowledge bowl, Showmanship and obedience through 4-H for several years. I have experience taking dogs to the vet and groomer as well. I'm currently searching for a full-time job but in the meantime can take care of your pups M-Su, 6am-6pm. Once I have a job I can pet sit and walk overnight during the week and weekends after 5pm. I have a kennel, dog toys and a small fenced in backyard. Additionally, I have potty bags and a leash. Willing to brush dog depending on temperament.

“Henry spent a relaxing Easter Sunday with Christine and Paul .... and he came home content and relaxed, which is the best sign ever. Can't wait for our next visit!”


About: “I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets needing extra attention. I specialize in providing personalized care, including administering medications, maintaining routines, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just extra cuddles, I treat every pet like my own!” I work all throughout the week and sometimes weekends ,but afternoons and evenings are almost guaranteed.i am very flexible and am very open to changes. “In my home, I create a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for pets with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and regular potty breaks. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible to minimize stress and ensure they feel at home. In a client’s home, I provide attentive care by sticking to their feeding, walking, and medication schedules, keeping their environment clean, and giving them plenty of attention and exercise. I respect your home and keep you updated with pictures and messages, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make sure they feel happy, secure, and loved while you’re away!”

“Camrynn was an awesome sitter for my dog. She was well taken care of and had a great time. Her dog was a great playmate as well. Camrynn was very flexible and understanding even with my change in timeline. Highly recommend!”


“AMAZING. I can’t say enough good stuff about Scott, I know this is sexist - but in a way I was very unsure about a male dog-sitter. I have no good reason for this other than I had always had female dog-sitters before, but Scott proved I was SO wrong. My dogs are very anxious and they don’t do well at all when left alone (hence why I have a dog-sitter). Somehow he got them to be totally relaxed, and they come home happy. He is so kind, and very flexible. He responded to me quickly every time, he sent me pictures of my furbabies all day, and he updated me on them consistently. I am a worrier by nature, but I felt so at ease with leaving my dogs with him.”


About: I’ve taken care of animals for 44 years. All of my family relies on me for caring for their pets when they go away. In our family we don’t have pets we have family. I’m currently not working outside my home so I have plenty of time to play with your babies, I have availability not only during the week but on weekends also. I do have an open back yard and live in a beautiful, safe, and dog friendly neighborhood for us to go for long walks on.
“Arren is fantastic!!!! I am so glad she took great care of my dog. Highly recommended. Until next time ???”


About: I’ve had various pets through the years from horses to hamsters. I have no issues with cleaning up feces, urine, throw up or cleaning wounds. I have spent a significant amount of time educating myself in dog training. I like to describe myself as a very well rounded person. I’m a housewife with a huge passion for animals that I want to share with the world. Currently I spend my mornings taking care of a 15 horse barn but that will be coming to an end in October so I’m looking to spread my love to the smaller animals of the world. I have a deck with a fenced in portion for potty time. I have 3 acres of open land and multiple run lines for pups that can’t be trusted off leash. I have my own pup an almost 2 year old female spayed Basset mix that is beyond friendly with everything to keep your pup or kitty company during their stay.
