OUR PEOPLE

Walter is our PM shift primary care provider.

Since 2018, Walter has been certified as a Pet Care Provider 

for dogs and has a growing love and talent for kitty care.  He is fully versed in large dog leash safety and various walk techniques.  

Litter lockers no longer confound him and he has mastered cat wands and other feline engagement techniques.

Recent upgrades mean he can administer pen-injected  insulin and oral pet meds too. Walter continues to aspire to further care certifications at ALPC.

Behind the scenes, Walter is our tech-driven customer service expert responsible for new client intake - people love him on the phone - talk or text!

He is quite the character!

   And - he lovingly handles print/web designs, social media & wordsmithing.  

Also from Northern Ontario, he has a lifetime of  pet experiences drawn from his hours filled with family pups, hamsters and guinea pigs.  Walter's wildlife experiences involved squirrels,  chipmunks, a colourful parade of wild birds and the occasional rescued robin.  

Service focus: PM after 4:00pm, overnight specialist, some early mornings.

Sydney has a great history of animal care experiences.   

Starting with a family puppy training business in 2010 as a youth, working as a farm hand at Shannondoe Farm for 60+ horses and then a care provider for a well known London firm, Syd is an uber-experienced animal lover.  

She considers her dog Rufus (pictured) whom

 she raised from a pup as her living resume.

Sydney excels as a weatherproof care provider with a loving focus.  Her enthusiasm and attentiveness shine through when walking or playing with your pet, medicating as directed or lavishing affection on them.

non-barking pet family members. 

 Kim and her human family handle their own mixed herd of unique pets on a daily basis and are constantly learning.  Non-traditional pets such as birds, bunnies and reptiles require expert knowledge for success.  

Her home has hosted a number of domestic birds thru the years and even Giant Flemish Bunnies!  She has recently expanded into ducks, chickens and geese.

Her zoo of devotion also includes 

Myla the Labrador, Agatha the English Bulldog and a 2024 German Shepard rescue - Rupert. 

Kim is our expert creature resource! 

Service focus: varies by creature 

Sometimes - things get damn busy!

Every business has a limit to the amount of services they can deliver effectively at any given time.  For instance, we get all sorts of inquiries for 

mid day services at lunch time.  We have been fully booked at 

that time of day for many months. 

Sometimes, your regular family pet sitter cancels or gets sick and you need last minute help.  Maybe you have a funeral and need emergency service during the holidays when bookings are already crazy.

We maintain friendly relationships with as many care providers as possible in the area.  When we get overbooked, we will do our best to forward you to a reputable pet care person or company.  

Count on us to get you covered!  

Snow! Our Malamute home rescue pup

Snow came to us in August 2023 as a senior rescue form Happy's Retirement Rescue at the age of nine.

Our happy and healthy pup keeps our work / life balance intact with his delightful play yowls of contentment and sometimes pouts of discontent. 

 All work and no daily play makes jack a dull boy!

Romping about the neighbourhood or local dog parks, Snow keeps us engaged with the St.Thomas community daily.  His pouts sometime extend to hunger strikes when holiday turkey or stews are made but luckily he can be pacified with apples or bananas most times.

We love him!
