Sometimes life can get really busy and you might find yourself a little short on time to walk your dog. Luckily with Pawshake, it is really easy to connect with thousands of pet lovers and find a walker in Peterborough who is available and waiting to help you out.

All of our walkers are vetted individually and every dog walker booking is covered by The Pawshake Guarantee so you can rest easy while they spend time with your dog. Additionally, your Pawshake walker will be from your local Peterborough neighbourhood and their profile also includes reviews from other pet parents.

Having a dog walker visit during the day is an affordable and great way to break up the day and make your dog’s day more interesting. Some of our walkers walk multiple dogs at once so this service is a great way for your dog to socialise and meet other similar dogs. However, if your dog prefers to be walked alone, you can also find Peterborough dog walkers who only walk one dog at a time. That way, the walks can be completely dedicated to what your dogs want – whether is a slow walk-and-sniff or a faster paced brisk walk around the block, our Pawshake dog walkers will be happy to oblige.

Hello all Dogs & Cats owners,

 My name is Gretel and I am passionate about animals. This is one of the main reasons why I am vegetarian. I speak 3 languages (English, French, and Spanish). For the moment I am working at home, so I have plenty of time for your babies! I am the owner of two pets businesses. We produce pet treats & dog subscription boxes.

I am the mommy of two beautiful cats Izzy and Romeo and the princess of the house, my tiny chihuahua Coco. My pets are my babies and I treat them with a lot of love, respect, and discipline.

We just moved to Peterborough in a house. We just want to do a kind of Airbnb for dogs. 

Now you got it - I would like to be a pet sitter in order to be around dogs, surrounded by their love. It makes me happy and my goal is to make them happy too.

* I have experience with Rescue/Puppies & Senior dogs

Available all day, any time even on weekends. We are three businesses partner who works with dogs. So, we will make time to fit your doggie in our schedule. 

We have a fenced yard. A lot of space and nice parks closer. We also love to try our business products on them. As long the owner does not mind! :)

(What I would like to know about your pet)

Before taking care of your dog, I would like to know if your baby has been trained. What kind of behavior your dog has? Is your dog allergic to anything? Is your dog-friendly with cats and dogs?

I do not have any preference for a specific breed but pet owners need to take into consideration these factors.

1. I am ok with any dog breeds for a walk or extra activity outside. However, I would like to know if your dog is ok with other dogs. If yes, I will bring my Coco (my chihuahua) with us to have fun together if not, no problem I will let her at home.   

2. I am ok with taking care of your dog at my place but your baby needs to be ok with my cats and my chihuahua. 

3. I am ok to pet sitting at the owner's place and I am open to all breeds.

*Your dog will :
	-Has access to the entire home.
	-Can sleep in my bed (if he/she is clean).
	- Our condo has a fenced in backyard
	- I will be at home must of the time (max 2-3h absent)
	- 3-4 exercise walk/day
	- Potty breaks every 0-2h
	- Will bathe your dog (if required)
	- Will provide food ($)/or you bring food

***As pet owner business, we have a lot of treats and toys in our home. We will take your baby at the parks, long walks and teach them discipline and some training tricks.


note: If you are out for few days don't worry I will send you a daily picture of your pet if it desired. With me, your pet is in good hands!

Hello, I wanted to introduce myself, my name is Michelle Watson. I am a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) in the Peterborough area with a passion for animals and many years of experience. I work full time until August and then I have full availability, but I'm here to offer care for your beloved cats and dogs when needed. I offer pet sitting in your own home only during the day. I am available to walk them, do basic grooming care, do medicine administrations, and spend time with them and play with them. Whether you need someone to keep your pets company during the day, take your dog for a refreshing walk, or provide them with some TLC and grooming, I've got you covered. I offer cat and dog cuddles! I could also feed fish if needed. I could check on pets while you’re away but cannot offer boarding or overnight pet sitting at this time. I can offer dog walking services to help keep your pups active and content while you're away, as well as basic pet grooming to keep them looking and feeling their best. I have a lot of my own grooming and care supplies. I offer Nail trims, anal gland expressions, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, ear hair plucking, paw pad shaves, shave jobs large or small, sanitary trims, basic brushing and trimming, full bathing with shampoo and conditioner and full drying with my high velocity dryer! I’ve groomed my own cat before so could potentially do cats as well depending on their behaviour and comfort level. I also offer free microchip scanning, and free treats and bandanas for pets. I also offer tick removal services and special shampoo treatments (allergies/sensitivies, oatmeal, flea treatment, skunk treatment, deshedding etc) ****** DISCLAIMER***** I Am NOT an official licensed pet groomer but can offer a lot of grooming tasks except for breed specific hair cuts/styles etc********** Because of my medical background I could also help with other aspects like giving SQ fluids (materials supplied by you and your vet), administering injections (supplied by you and your vet), client education about proper care, and basic wound cleaning/management (material supplied by you and your vet) *******DISCLAIMER******* I can give simple advice but I CANNOT diagnose your pet or tell you what’s wrong with them and I am not to be used as an alternative to seeking veterinary help with your pet, I am here to use as a guide and as a helper to use alongside your vet! I am NOT a VET!****** I am able to offer a bunch of these services mobile as well if needed as I have materials and a reliable truck to get around. I can also provide pet sitting services in your own home during the day (no overnights). I personally have 2 dogs and 1 cat in my own home (all rescues). I am a current active volunteer and area rep for SMART rescue (husky/malamute only dog rescue) along with fostering dogs for them (I’m on my 11th foster dog with them so far!) I helped volunteer at the Spay Neuter Clinic briefly, and I periodically help volunteer with the Peterborough Humane Society, the OSPCA Provincial Dog Rehabilitation Centre, and the Riverview Park and Zoo in the summertime. I also periodically shadow a Canine Rehab lady with K9 in Motion Wellness. I am also Fear Free Certified. I just recently got my pet CPR/First Aid Certification as well. I promise that if you choose to work with me that your animals are safe with me and they will be well taken care of! I am open to accepting other requests and offering services not already mentioned if needed, just message me and we can discuss further. Please don’t hesitate to reach out. My love for animals is huge and I want nothing more than to create an environment for them that’s as low stress as possible. If for any reason your pet is too stressed when performing a service I will not force them to do anything they aren’t comfortable with just to “get it done” and can try another time if needed to earn their trust. I am patient and kind and will always respect their boundaries️


I’m offering dog walking services again ‍🦺
 Nogojiwanong / Peterborough
 All breeds, energies, &amp; ages
 Naughty dogs accepted
 Medical needs welcome
Adminster meds if needed
 Trail walks &amp; exploration 
️ Any weather *that is safe 
 Can bath + brush your pup if messy!
Casual walks or jogs 
 Positive reinforcement training
️ Regular, weekly clients only
️ Weekday morning + afternoon availability 
️ Non-profit animal rescue founder
 Lots of experience + references
Hi! I’m Mel. I’ve lived in Nogojiwanong/Peterborough for awhile now, &amp; have cared for animals my whole life, and worked with them in various capacities for 2 decades. I have a beloved 15 year-old dog of my own, 4 sweet cats, 2 fun bunnies and 2 adorable rats! I can care for animals of any species, any medical needs, in any weather *that’s safe for them*, &amp; I offer a variety of activities (including running with your higher energy pup!)
My family fostered many cats &amp; dogs when I was growing up. Our house was full of love &amp; many personalities to get to know! As soon as I was able - I sought out opportunities to work with animals myself! I worked at a pet store for 5 years, volunteered with Humane Societies, worked at a doggie daycare &amp; at a horse stable. I volunteered &amp; co-oped at a veterinary clinic, led my own dog to pass a Therapy Dog Evaluation Test, &amp; even ran my own successful animal care business for a few years!
Now - my career path has taken a few turns! I’m a Research Manager, and a parent. I recently decided to ground myself back in working with animals, &amp; making more space &amp; opportunity for myself to walk - which is my favourite thing to do. So, I founded a non-profit animal rescue in the Summer of 2021. This takes up a chunk of my time, &amp; I love it. Now, for the walking.
I enjoy walking, especially with a dog, &amp; especially on trails - I WANT to walk for hours a day. Knowing that I love not only animals, but walking in all weather, can have you resting assured that I am in the best space when spending time with your babies!
 RATES 
️ Sliding scale (let’s chat!)
 30 minute walk/jog | $25
 60 minute walk/jog | $37
 90 minute walk/jog | $45
 Extra dog = $10/dog for any duration

 Keep in mind that the app takes a decent chunk of this, and in addition to the walk time, I spend time on transportation, dressing your pup for the weather and tidying them up after. This is all included in the rate, and does not count toward your walk time. (Ex. $35 for a 60 minute walk includes a FULL 60+ minute walk, and the additional time spent on transportation, getting ready, and clean up)! 
Reach out if I sound like a good fit for your family!

Living with 4 cats for 6 years has not only been a joy but has also made me a feline expert, thanks to my girlfriend, who is a veterinarian. I've absorbed valuable insights into their health and behavior, and I even played a crucial role in saving three kittens during a challenging labor process. One of them, now the sweetest angel among my cats, is a testament to my dedication to their well-being.
Freshly graduated and currently immersed in full-time job hunting, my love for animals has given me the perfect opportunity to dedicate extensive time to care for cats and small to medium-sized dogs. Being pet-less at the moment (my fur babies are with my girlfriend in our long-distance relationship), I genuinely miss their company, adding an extra layer of motivation to provide exceptional care for your pets.
I look forward to the chance to share my expertise, passion, and genuine love for animals with your furry companions!

I am usually available in the afternoon, but if you book in advance, I might be available in any time slot.&nbsp;
I can only do home visits for now, however long negotiable water plants and bring in the mail by the way if you needed, and if you have special needs, we can discuss per case.&nbsp;
I can walk dogs as long as they are controllable, so the calm kind of dogs only please, I am physically strong, but just not big enough to manage a super hayper dog. Thanks for understanding.
