Trusted Dog Walking & Pet Care in Mississauga
Safe, reliable, and local pet services with GPS-tracked walks, photo updates, and the same trusted walker every time.
About Me
I am more than just a dog walker— I am your pet’s extended family. Based in Mississauga, I offer personalized care for dogs and cats, whether it’s a quick walk, in home grooming, or overnight sitting.
Growing up, dogs were a staple in my household – like cereal, but with more personality. My most recent canine companion was by myside for 14 years, which means I have a PhD in belly rubs and minor in “treat-tossing”.
What sets me apart? Well after over 2 decades of busy corporate career I finally decided to quit my job and dedicate all my time to something that I am passionate about. So now I have all the time in the world to shower your pup with love, cuddles and attention. I excel at epic games of fetch, marathon, cuddle sessions and making sure your dog feels like the most important creature on the planet ….because they are!
If you’re looking for someone who ready to pamper your pooch and fill your home with wagging tails and happy barks, look no further. Let’s make your dog’s day pawesome together!
I have a fenced backyard with green grass lots of room to run. I have a mini goldendoodle pup call Shadow to give your dog company . We love chilling in the backyard and playing with toys and lying on the hammock. Drinks and refreshments are always available to keep your pooch hydrated.

Tips for Pet Owners
How Often Should You Walk Your Dog?
Most dogs need at least 30–60 minutes of daily activity. Walks help with fitness, behavior, and bonding.
Best Parks & Trails for Dogs in Mississauga
Jack Darling Park, Etobicoke Creek Trail, and Lakeshore Promenade are all dog-friendly favorites.
Puppy Socialization 101
Expose your puppy early to new sights, sounds, and smells to build confidence and reduce anxiety later in life.
Winter Pet Safety (Mississauga Winters)
1. Dress and Protect Your Dog
Small breeds, seniors, and short-haired dogs benefit from coats or sweaters. Boots help shield paws from ice, salt, and chemical de-icers.
2. Keep Walks Short and Strategic
Opt for brief, more frequent outings during cold snaps. Watch for shivering, paw lifting, or slowing down—these are signs to head back in.
3. Paw and Fur Care After Walks
Always wipe down paws and underbelly to remove salt, snow, and antifreeze residue. Moisturizing paw balm can help prevent cracking.
4. Know Your Dog’s Health and Limits
Older dogs, puppies, and pets with medical conditions have lower cold tolerance. Adjust walk times and intensity accordingly.
5. Avoid Cold Weather Risks
Never leave dogs in vehicles during winter, and avoid extreme windchill conditions. Use fenced yards or condo breaks for quick bathroom trips when needed.
Summer Pet Safety (Mississauga Summers)
1. Walk During Cooler Times
Stick to early mornings and evenings to avoid heat stress. Shorten walks during heatwaves or high humidity.
2. Hydration and Cooling Methods
Provide plenty of water before and after walks. Use cooling mats, frozen treats, damp bandanas, or lightly wet fur to help reduce body heat.
3. Protect Paws and Avoid Hot Surfaces
Asphalt and concrete can burn paws—if it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for them. Choose grass or shaded routes.
4. Never Leave Dogs in Vehicles
Even with windows cracked, temperatures rise dangerously within minutes. Always leave pets at home or bring them inside with you.
5. Monitor Health, Stress & Behaviour
Watch for excessive panting, drooling, or slowing down. Senior dogs and flat-faced breeds are especially vulnerable. Keep pets indoors during fireworks and storms.
Dog Owner Reviews
Saw minded my elderly dog Bob (10 years old) for a week while i traveled for work. I am always anxious to leave Bob in a new house and out of his usual environment but Saw went out of his way to make sure he was comfortable. His young pup Shadow was so gentle with Bob and knew that he wasn’t as playful so he didn’t bug him and they enjoyed some relaxing, slow paced walks each day! Saw made sure to keep me extra updated on how Bob was doing.

Saw and Shadow were both friendly and Welcoming! Saw was attentive and knew how to introduce the dogs and take care of Our dog. Sometimes it takes a while for our dog to warm up and he’ll just sniff and walk around in his new environment and this is what he did and half way through the visit, he and Shadow played and wrestled and had a great time! Saw sent us photos and videos which we really appreciated and we loved the videos.

Saw minded my three dogs for a long weekend while i travelled to the US. They did awesome, they were immediately comfortable with him and his very cute doggy Shadow. My youngest pup Duffy and Shadow became best friends and i think played non stop. When Duffy was home she slept so well so clearly, was having fun all weekend. There was no issues – eating all their food and daily walks. I was very happy with how comfortable they were with Saw.
