Why a Dog Walker?

Few people have both the time and physical ability required to meet the needs of their dogs.

My belief is that an active life will greatly impact your dog's behaviour and ability to thrive as a member of your household.

Regular exercise can also prevent a long list of health problems.


Benefits For Your Dog Include:

Reduced loneliness during the day.

Mental stimulation.

Improved behaviour (less chewing, accidents, barking, etc.)

Reduced aggression.

Improved physical health.

Peace of mind for busy dog owners.

Happy Dog! (Is there anything better??)


Hi, my name is Ted and if you're looking for a caring and compassionate Dog Walker for your furry friend in Ottawa, look no further. I'll take care of your beloved pet as if it were my own - with love, kindness and endless patience. I love dogs and I love walking, so you can be sure your pet will not just get some great exercise but will have lots of fun as well!

From earliest childhood I've been surrounded by all manner of pets - dogs, cats, birds, rabbits and fish. I grew up in an animal-loving environment and that tradition has carried on throughout my adulthood. I know very well how important your pet is to you and will always exercise the utmost vigilance to ensure that your pet is always safe and kept from harm.

Keep your dog (or dogs) happy and healthy while you're busy or away from home with regular dog walks. My dog walking service can be an affordable way to make sure your pets don't destroy your house or get lonely during long workdays, or when you can't walk them because of family or mobility issues. My dog walking service is available for dogs of any age, from puppies to senior dogs, or any size.

Dog walks can be a 30 or 60 minute stroll around your neighbourhood or I can pick up your dog (or dogs) at their home (whether you are home or not) and drive them to a dog park for a good two hour romp and then return them home. There are several good fenced and unfenced, on or off-leash parks in the Ottawa area where your dog (or dogs) can interact with other dogs to help with your pet's socialization skills while also fighting off loneliness. My fees will vary depending on the type of service you require but you can click on to get a general idea of what those fees might be.
