My origin story begins with family pets. We always had dogs and cats around the house. In my teens & 20’s I volunteered at the SPCA, walking dogs and helping train puppies. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages and temperaments. Currently I spoil my sisters labs as much as possible with trips to the park in winter and swimming in the river in summer!
My flexible schedule allows me time to do what I love most, hanging out with dogs and cats! I’m available 7 days a week, and can visit day or night. Think of me as the cool uncle that swoops in and spoils your kids with a fun adventure and treats! Dogs are furry little aliens that we really don’t deserve but life sure is better when they’re around. Each one has their own unique personality and idiosyncrasies that make them so special and enjoyable to spend time with. I’m at my best and most happy when I’m in the company of our canine friends.
I’ve found that our furry little friends are much more comfortable and happier in their own environment, therefore I do not board dogs at my home. Most of my clients are pop-in visits once or even twice a day, depending on feeding schedule. Each visit includes food, fresh water, walk/play time and of course bathroom breaks. Visit time is about 30-45min.
I also offer live-in care (stay at your house) for clients with separation anxiety issues.
My level of adventure depends on the dog I’m looking after. High energy? We’ll head to the park and play fetch. Low energy? A quick tour of the neighbourhood then home for nap or cuddles. Our time together will depend upon your dogs level of comfort and activity.
Let me know if your pet has any allergies, strange behaviour (ie: separation anxiety) or phobias. The more I know about your pet the better I will be at making our time together comfortable and fun!

Colin definitely put our minds at ease taking care of our 11 year old rescue beagle with anxiety issues. He had never been left with anyone but family, so we were unsure how Jaxon would react. Colin made sure that Jaxon's routine was kept as normal as possible and sent us a number of photos that showed Jaxon was happy and well taken care of.
Colin is an excellent dog walker! Our dog, Willow, is very sweet and intelligent and also highly reactive. Colin is one of the few people we trust and feel comfortable to help Willow navigate rabbits, other dogs and the occasional bicycle! He communicates well and has been very helpful. Thanks Colin!
