Welcoming back the lovely Annie!

If you know Labradoodles, you know they are total balls of energy and affection, and Annie is no exception.
Since I grew up with my own Labradoodle, Rascal (who is turning 12 soon!), I have a huge soft spot for these pups.🐶❤️

So happy to have you back in my care, Annie!

PS: Sorry for the lack of posts over the last little while. I have been fairly busy and have also been prioritizing time for myself, but I will be working to catch up on posting!

Bringing home the Silver! 🥈

​A massive thank you to every single person who took the time to vote and support me in this year’s community votes!

While I was aiming for that third consecutive gold, standing on the podium with a Silver medal is a moment I am incredibly proud of.
​Awards are wonderful, but the real prize is the ongoing support from this amazing community.

I'm so grateful to be doing what we love, and we couldn't do it without you.

Congratulations to all of the other businesses that took part in the 2026 community votes, whether you placed on the podium or not. 💯🎉

Nia loves to sit in the snow and hang out with me while I shovel this huge snow dump!🐶❄️

She also tries to "help" by running beside me and pouncing onto the shovel while I'm shovelling.😅

Taking a short "paws" for recovery! 🐾

​It’s been a whirlwind few weeks! Between a busy and pet-sitting schedule, focusing on my university studies during the final 2-month stretch and now fighting off a couple of pesky bugs, I’ve been a little quiet here.

To ensure I provide the best care for your pets, I always schedule a 7-day recovery/rest period in the comfort of my own home between long-term or multiple consecutive bookings. I am currently using this time to rest and focus on my studies so that I am 100% recharged and healthy before my next 3-week sitting begins.

​Stay tuned for more pet updates soon-Once I'm feeling better and have regained some energy, I'll be catching up on posting pictures and updates about the pets that were in my care. 🐶😺

Ps. I will be away on Vacation from August 13th to 21st and from September 8th to 18th. During these dates, I won't be updating my business social media pages or replying to messages. I'll have automatic replies set up to inform anyone who messages me that I am away on Vacation.

When people gather around to watch the trap or approach her directly, she becomes focused on the crowd and frightened. Approaching her to feed, call, or especially trying to grab her is not helping and is setting back progress.

What does help is calmly observing from a distance and ignoring her presence. If she chooses to follow, the best approach is to quietly guide her into a secure yard without pressure or sudden movements. Unfortunately, when things become chaotic and people try to interact with her, it increases her fear and makes her harder to contain.

She is not avoiding the traps, she is a smart, scared dog. I am actively conditioning her to the traps. This process takes time and consistency. I’ve done this before, but having so much well-intentioned public involvement has added a degree of difficulty.

Please also know that I am reading and listening to everyone’s messages and sightings. I am often receiving multiple calls and texts at the same time, and I can only respond to so many at once while actively managing the situation. If I don’t reply, it doesn’t mean it isn’t appreciated or important.

Thank you for the support. Please help by spreading the message: stay calm, do not interact, do not chase, and give her space. Fearful dogs require patience and coordination. We will get her safe, it just takes time.
