Volunteers must reside in Southwestern Ontario (Guelph, Kitchener/Waterloo, Cambridge, Hamilton, Niagara, Brantford, Western GTA and London and areas in this circle) and be able to travel to attend bi-weekly puppy classes.  All food, equipment and veterinary care are provided.

Puppy sitters are responsible for providing a safe home environment and caring for puppies between eight weeks and 18 months of age and are responsible for their day to day needs and well-being. Puppy sitting is a good way to begin in our volunteer program if you are interested in raising a puppy but aren’t quite ready for the long term commitment involved.

What People
Say About Us

Lukey joining our family has been life changing for us. Not having to worry so much about Ryan’s safety while out in public is amazing. We are doing things we haven’t tried in years."
Ryan's mom, Kristen

Alex has a compulsive tendency to touch things. It severely impaired his day to day life. Going short distances took a considerable amount of time because he had to touch everything! Now with Pepsi at his side, he walks confidently and with virtually no tapping! Pepsi also keeps Alex focused on the task at hand and prevents him from wandering away.”
