Caring Dog Sitter - In My Home or Yours

Dog Boarder or Sitter in your home!

I work part-time from home and offer one-on-one dog boarding services. I can care for your dog in my home or stay at your home—whichever works best for you and your pet.

My experience: I had a wonderful rescue dog named Cotton for ten years who passed last year. I have also been dog boarding, and a dog foster for many years. I’m looking for just a few clients who need occasional boarding services.

As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve always had a special bond with dogs. I’m the human they gravitate to, likely because I make time for long walks, fun hikes, and quality time.

Here’s what you can expect:
• I have a cozy house in Leslieville with a small backyard.
• Dogs in my care go on three walks daily, including at least one hour of off-leash fun if allowed. Evening backyard breaks are part of the routine too.
• Your dog will rarely be left alone for more than a few hours.
• At my house, dogs are welcome on the couch and can sleep in my bed if they’d like.

Your dog will be treated like family—just like my own beloved Cotton.

Rates:
• Boarding at my home: $50 per night
• Care at your home (Beaches/Leslieville area): $65 per night (3 night minimum for staying in your home). Do you live out in cottage country – that may be an option too 😉.

I’m also a volunteer foster for Mattie’s Place, and the photos included are of my beautiful Cotton and some of the dogs I’ve had the privilege of boarding.

Let me know how I can help care for your furry family member!

Hi there - I work part time from home, and am looking to board one dog at a time.

I have a dog named Cotton, she is a rescue that has really turned out into a great dog. We go for off leash play every day, either at large dog parks or at the Beach. I am looking for just a few clients that I can board occasionally.

I have been an animal lover for many years. I am always the favourite human friend to any dogs I know, mostly in part because I always make time to take the dogs for walks or hikes.

I have a house with a small backyard. My dogs go on three walks a day, including at least an hour off leash fun a day, and a night time p*e in my backyard. I spend a lot of time with my dogs, and they are rarely left alone for more then a few hours at a time.

In my house dogs are able to sit on the couch, and sleep in my bed if wanted. Your dog will be treated as well as my own - which is a lot!

I live in Leslieville and my rates are $40 per night, I can also do dog daycare as well. The photos are of Cotton and some of her friends that have had sleepovers.

Just a note most weekends in the summer I wont be available for boarding - but after then my weekends are mostly free.
