Home Visits

Send me to your place to check on your pets and your home. We can take a neighbourhood walk or just facilitate a quick backyard potty break.

Book a quick home visit for 15 or 30 minutes, or choose a half-hour neighbourhood walk for a bit more stimulation and exercise.

Most clients choose home visits and neighbourhood walks for midday while they're busy at work.

I can also accommodate early morning, late afternoon, and even visits into the evening. Sometimes clients choose home visits to give one last pee break to their dogs when they're going out for dinner and a movie.

After each visit I will send you a quick text to let you know how things went.

Dog not required

Home visits aren't just for dogs. I can also visit your small pets and water your garden even if you don’t have any furry friends for me to walk!

What Does a Home Visit Provide?

Food & water

During your home visit I will put out fresh food and water as required – along with chin scratches and a farewell treat!

Human interaction

I'll ensure basic training is maintained, and provide positive human interaction during the times you aren’t able to be there.

A quick hello

Home visits are typically 15 minutes or so, but I may make special accommodations for longer visits depending on your needs.

Bathroom break

During the home visit I will take your dog outside to have a bathroom break, either in your yard or somewhere close to your home.

Neighbourhood walks

Book your pet a 30 or 45-minute leashed walk around their own neighbourhood.

Neighbourhood walks keep your dog in a familiar location to avoid adding stress or anxiety to their day. Great for elderly dogs, puppies, and furry friends who need personal attention in a more controlled environment.

Neighbourhood walks are also an option for dogs who aren't current on their vaccines, or who are unable to travel in a vehicle.

Quick visit & pee break for dogs

Quick pee break visits are a smart way for puppies and elderly dogs to get some much-needed attention during the day.

Any messes or used pee pads will be cleaned and fresh water and food will be provided. During a midday home visit I am also able to administer medication, or check up on dogs with medical needs.

Quick visit for cats & small pets

Dogs aren't the only ones who can benefit from a midday visit: cats and other small caged animals need drop-in visits too.

I can help with caged animals who don't require much company by cleaning their cages and setting out food and water. No matter what your small pet needs, I am happy to give your little ones a quick drop-in!

If you're away for more than just the day, I'll also bring the mail inside and switch on or rotate your lights and ensure your home is secure once a day.
