FIRST TIME FREE Active Dog Sitting

Pet care experience

FIRST TIME FREE: brand new to dog sitting/walking on DogVacay so I'm happy to do your first booking for FREE. This will give you a chance to see if I'm the right fit for you and your dog without having to fork anything out and give me the opportunity to hang out with your awesome dog! Hi, I'm Angus and I've moved to Montreal recently from Australia. I grew up on a beef farm surrounded by dogs and since leaving mine in Australia I've been missing them like crazy. With working full time during the week I sadly am unable to get a dog so I think dog sitting is the way to go. I've spent my entire life surrounded by animals but dogs in particular. Over the past few summers in Australia, I have cared for my parents 2 dogs, my sister's dog and her partners 2 dogs at the same time. Three of these dogs are very big, one medium and one small. Two of the dogs fought so I'd have to ensure I kept them separate. While growing up I've looked after dogs, rabbits, cats, lizards, chickens, horses and calfs. I've very experienced with all of these animals (large and small, friendly and aggressive) and just being around animals never ceases to make me happy. For pet sitting, my home is large enough to accommodate a few small dogs or one medium/large dog comfortably. There is a small outdoor courtyard, however I would rely on going for several walks daily to give the dogs (and me) some exercise. My house is very close to serval parks and I am happy taking the dog in my car (or walk) to Mont Royal for longer walks and runs. Typically, on the weekends I spend in Montreal I am mostly outdoors (weather permitting) either hiking somewhere close or exploring the city. In my down time, I tend to read and am more than happy to sit with a dog with some tea and just relax. I live the le Plateau however I'm more than happy to travel all over Montreal. I'm happy to accommodate any needs required by the dog or requested by you. I know how much your dog means to you and will do everything I can to ensure your piece of mind while your dog is with me.

Reviews

Angus has been our pet sitter for the past few years and has been terrific! Our dogs are big and not that easy to handle. One doesn't like strangers especially males, and the other is not overly friendly with strange dogs, making them a tricky couple! Angus has been great with both of them with his easy and relaxed manner, and also gives them plenty of exercise. As a reliable, friendly, active person we couldn't recommend Angus more as your next pet sitter!

Angus has dog sat for me on several occasions. I have two dogs; 12yrs old Shih Tzu and a 3 yr old Irish wolfhound. One of my dog requires medication on a regular basis. Angus was receptive and looked after my dogs exceptionally. He provided exercise as they required and I had no fears for their care whilst I was away. They dont always take to strangers but both of them took to Angus from his first visit. I would not leave my dogs with just anyone. Angus was a great match and I recommend him highly.

Angus dog-sits for me regularly and is great with all 3 of my dogs. They are large and very active dogs but always get plenty of exercise with Angus on his daily run and walks! One of my dogs is quite anxious but has settled really well with Angus and is always happy to see him. Very reliable and friendly, a great dog-sitter!
