About 1.5 years ago we were looking for someone to walk our dog Peach in the afternoon while we are…read moreboth at work and came across Stellar Pet Care. Jennifer was friendly and professional and she has been walking our dog Peach since then. We can tell Peach loves her and really enjoys spending time with her. We asked her to give us a quick text every day after the walk on how it went and Jennifer never missed one. We have also boarded Peach with Jennifer whenever we went out of town and we can relax and enjoy our time away from home because we know that she will be well taken care of. We would recommend Stellar Pet Care to anyone without hesitation!

My family goes on business trips and vacations regularly and we needed a cat sitter on short…read morenotice. We found Jennifer and she responded promptly, agreeing to take care of our 16-old-Gus for 2 weeks. What makes her business really special is she provides daily updates and photos of her visits so you don't have to worry about your furry friend back home. Gus is a senior cat with few teeth and specific dietary needs, and she was very caring in preparing his meals. Jennifer also kept our home very clean, considering beloved Gus loves to throw his litter around. She is very reliable and we will certainly be using her services every time we are away. We'd highly recommend her to anyone in need of pet care.

I fostered then adopted my baby Hazelnut (nee Mecca) in April, a month before a planned long…read moreweekend away to Cape Breton. Hazelnut had been through 3 foster families before me, over the course of 2 months. Despite having a good life for 7 years (she was reluctantly surrendered by her family when they moved into an apartment), and despite the efforts of 3 amazing, caring foster families, Hazelnut was unsettled, unsure of where life would dump her next, and, I think, misunderstood by all the potential adopters who ran away with their tails between their legs. It doesn't help that I'm gone 40 hours/week for work, and there's nobody around to stimulate her brain cells. Hazelnut is an intelligent, loving hound, but she has some serious anxiety issues around dogs (especially, but not only, big ones), and around certain people, too (I have not yet figured out what makes her snap at people). When her triggers get too close, Hazelnut barks and lunges and froths at the mouth. So finding a dogsitter was going to be challenging! Cathy of A Dog's Day was not fazed by Hazelnut's seemingly aggressive behaviour. Our first meeting, at the beginning of May, 2 weeks after I had adopted Hazelnut, everyone nearly went deaf. Hazelnut was barking and bearing teeth, shouting "Hey everyone! I feel really uncomfortable right now! And I want you to feel that way too!" In spite of the fact that Cathy was then on vacation until a week before my weekend getaway, she planned with me an approach to introduce her to Hazelnut and gradually make the relationship more comfortable. She also brought along her son Jacob, knowing that his gentle, laid-back demeanor would be soothing for an unsettled dog. Cathy and Jacob met me at home and took Hazelnut for a walk. I gave them the key, and later in the week, they let themselves into the house, and took Hazelnut for another walk. All of this was free of charge, because they wanted to make sure the weekend would work out well for everyone, Hazelnut especially! Jacob did much of the dog-sitting while I was gone, and I couldn't be happier with the results. When I got home Monday afternoon, Hazelnut was lolling about on the couch. She was more relaxed than I'd ever seen her. In the course of 3 days, Jacob and Cathy worked some kind of de-stressing magic on Hazelnut. I will definitely be hiring A Dog's Day again in future. And if you need an experienced dogsitter (or dog walker) who is prepared to deal with practically anything, who will plan it carefully, and execute the plan with love and attention to detail, then you should give Cathy a call!

I am very particular about the care of my pets, and I have nothing but high praise for Adam and all…read morethe walkers. I have been using the daily dog walking service for well over a year, and I have also used the overnight care option. I provided all the information that I wanted up front, and over time I have provided extra updates and requests. My dog can be a little reactive at times, and I am always worried about how people will handle that, but I haven't had a single concern arise. I have been home several times when the walkers come by, and my dog is always loose and relaxed when he sees them, and happy when I come home. I get updates after every walk so that I know for certain my dog got out and how it went. I got updates every morning and night that I was away. Communication is very important for me, and they are fantastic at it. If I could give them 10 stars, I would.

Dave is the greatest - been with him from the start of his business. He's seen my dog through…read morepancreatitis, sprained tails and colic, to name a few. So I know you can count on him in a crisis. I have found him to be 100% reliable. Also caring and compassionate with dogs (and owners). Loves each dog, and knows each one's idiosyncrasies well, judging by how he talks about them. He's also careful that the dogs in his groups are a good mix, and trials dogs on a walk before he accepts them into his schedule. And the greatest thing, he takes them on amazing vigorous walks, lasting 2 hours at least. My dog loves him, and always comes home happy, hungry and Tired! I do not hesitate to recommend him, with no reservations.
