City Dogs Toronto

I had been looking for the perfect walker for my Chihuahua, Lucy, for months and when we met Ann it was obvious that the search had ended. It has now been over a year later and we still  be happier! Ann is friendly, reliable, flexible but most importantly she displays genuine love and affection for Lucy. I really appreciate how Ann is always available in a pinch if I have to work late and I love how she sends me regular updates on how Lucy is doing or if she notices anything irregular.  Whether it is for a half an hour walk or a full weekend stay, I know I can always trust Ann to make sure my pooch and is safe, happy and well taken care of. Both Lucy and I adore Ann and I would recommend her to anyone looking for doggy care services!

We call her the “dog whisperer.”  Ann has been known throughout the neighbourhood for her love of dogs. She has been walking my white shepherd/husky cross, Sophie, since the start of her business. Sophie adores her. Every day, she waits by the door for Ann to arrive and then serenades her with howls and covers her in kisses. And I have the peace of mind that she is safe and well looked after when with Ann. Ann’s customer service is first rate.  She is responsive to changes in schedules and always ready in an emergency. She also manages to balance unquestionable professionalism with natural warmth and good humour. I can think of none better suited to this line of work. And Soph agrees, four paws up.

Since Ann started walking my dog a year ago, she has always consistently displayed every attribute I look for in the people I trust to look after my dog. She is friendly and approachable; I always feel able to talk to her about concerns or ask her about how things are going. She is flexible and reliable; many times I have had to change the schedule or add walks last minute and she is always accommodating and helpful. Most importantly, she displays genuine care and affection for my dog, giving him the same love and attention that I would. It is very clear to me that Ann truly cares about her clients, both the human and animal ones, and I feel very comfortable trusting her with my home and my furry baby. Michelle S.

Ann is literally a life saver. I have been so lucky to meet someone who loves my little pup as much as my husband and I love him. Our dog (Cruze) absolutely adores her and it makes me so happy to see him so excited every time she walks through the front door. If you are looking for someone that you can trust, this is Ann. She is one of the most kind-hearted and genuine people I have ever met. I was extremely worried about going back to work and leaving Cruze alone, but having Ann in our lives has been a blessing. I highly recommend her!! Jennifer F.

Hiring Ann to walk my parents’ puppy was the best choice I made! I was dog-sitting for a month and needed someone to walk Lilly at lunch while I was at work. Ann sent daily photos and updates of Lilly which always put a smile on my face, and knowing that she was taking Lilly out really put me at ease. Lilly seemed very comfortable with Ann and seemed to take instructions well from her. I know whenever Lilly stays with me she’ll want to have playdates with Ann. Thank you, Ann! I couldn’t have made it through the month without you. Diana H.

We picked up Harley, our petite goldendoodle, when she was just 8 weeks old. As most would imagine, she had some puppy issues which we wanted to correct. Ann provided the perfect amount of instruction and support needed to get the job done; she even surprised us with treats and various tools that we could use with Harley at no extra cost. She prides herself on always walking the dog on time, always making sure Harley safe, well socialized and tired out, and even welcomes Harley into her home with open arms when we have to go away. I would recommend Ann to anyone who needs a reliable, insured, caring individual to help with their dog. She’s the best. Two paws up! Ryan H.

Ann has been Abbey’s dog walker since we got her at 11 weeks old so Abbey has grown up seeing Ann every week and we couldn’t be happier with her.  They have a special relationship and Abbey is the happiest dog every time she sees Ann when she goes for a walk or stays with her for the weekend.  Ann has a wonderful, kind and caring attitude and she treats all her dogs like family.  She also cares very much for all the dogs because she notices if anything is off with Abbey and knows her personality very well and will match dogs together perfectly for their group walks.  She is 100% reliable and honest and I would give the highest recommendation to anyone who is looking for a great dog-walker.
