Welcome to the Happy Humber Hounds family! I’m Charlene, and below are my two pups (or sassy assistants) Porsche and Penny. I was born and raised in Toronto and I currently live in the Runnymede community with my partner Dallas. I have over 10 years of animal care experience including previous work at the Toronto Humane Society, the Etobicoke Humane Society and the reptile store Tails and Scales. My dog walking/pet sitting journey started on Rover in 2018 and now I am independently licensed and insured as Happy Humber Hounds. This is my full time home business and my passion, nothing makes me happier than a happy pup!

Safety and comfort are my main priorities while your pets are in my care. I am pet first aid certified and experienced in administering medication for dogs and cats. I have worked with a variety of different breeds, elderly dogs, dogs with physical limitations/disabilities, and dogs that struggle with anxiety and reactivity. I always make sure that every potential new friend completes a successful meet and greet prior to joining our crew at home, everyone is fed separately, and we do not participate in off leash activities or dog parks. Our space is optimized for dogs with tons of room to play, rest and do their own thing. They are welcome on the couches for cuddles (How can I say no?) and we even have a fenced in patio space for fresh air and sun bathing in the warmer months. Rain or shine I am here to help with all of your pet care needs.
