About Me!

Like many people who grow up in a small town, I lived my life surrounded by pets – lots of them. They always brought a certain specialness to my life, one that I didn’t fully appreciate until I moved out on my own to attend university in Toronto. Every time I came back home to visit, I would be reminded of how much I missed them and be so sad to leave and return to my studies.

Fast forward to the present and I’ve certainly learned a lot since then. First, that I cannot live without my animals; I now have a Chihuahua named Mochi and a Maine Coon named Smokie. Another thing I learned is that while I love the city life, I recognize that it can be B U S Y. And while the 9 to 5 grind ended up not being for me, I did gain a thorough understanding of how hectic it can be, but also, just how far a little bit of help in your day can go. Hence why I’m so excited that you’re reading about Bark Buddies today!

I feel very fortunate to be in a position where I can help others who are in the same situation that I was once upon a time. Now I get to meet lots of amazing people, great dogs, and work for myself each day which is a dream come true.

As a small business owner and entrepreneur, every client counts. I strive to attain 100% customer satisfaction because I personally believe that my brand is my name. Bark Buddies Toronto is a place that will always put your dogs needs first. I genuinely believe that the relationships I build with the owners and their dogs are the most critical aspect of my business. I’m sincerely looking forward to meeting with you soon to discuss the approach that is best for you and your dog.

My Motto:

My motto is that a happy pup is a happy owner! You will immediately notice the difference in the at home dynamic with your dog that having them out for regular walks provides; destructive habits like chewing, excessive barking or relieving themselves indoors are often related to a lack of exercise, boredom and loneliness.

I guarantee that giving your furrier half the opportunity to have an outlet in their life like daily walks will result in a calmer, more balanced experience with them in the home, which will surely benefit the relationship between you and your pup for years to come!

Our special needs dog was taken care of by Osuri and she did a wonderful job communicating with us, spending time with him, and following our instructions. Our dog gets up very early and has to go out frequently, and Osuri was patient and very accommodating. She also sent photos and videos every day. I would highly recommend her and Bark Buddies Toronto!

If I could give them 6 stars I would! I know how important these reviews are, because that's exactly why I chose Bark Buddies in the first place, so here is my honest review: Angela has been with us for about a month now and we could not be more happy. Angela is kind, knowledgable in dog training and handling, and reliable. Koda LOVES her. She's gone above and beyond, truly. There have been days where I am struggling to get my puppy under control and Angela has given me amazing advice from experience and tips that have helped me in getting Koda to a place of respecting commands and being such a well behaved little one. I am so grateful.

This is a very well deserved review. I have never left my dog before with anyone before. Suffice it to say I was dealing with some very intense anxiety. My dog acts as an emotional support animal, apart from being my literal child. So i was terrified of leaving her while I was away for work. Rebecca was phenomenal, she sent me regular updates, 7-8 times a day, with pictures of my dog, videos, comments etc. I could see from the pics how happy my dog was with her. It was such a relief. not only that, ever since I brought my dog back, she's been more social, interacting with other dogs when I take her for her walks and allowing strangers to pet her. She has *never* done that before. I'll be using Rebecca's services regularly from now on, and if you have any concerns, let this review be your assurance that Rebecca is straight up a dog whisperer and will make sure your baby is happy, comfy and safe.

We left our two senior dogs with Rebecca for the first time for 2 nights. The dogs came back happy and there were no issues. Rebecca sent us updates and pictures while we were away that made us feel our dogs were in good hands. Rebecca was great to deal with and we highly recommend her dog sitting services.

Rebecca is an absolute gem! We've been working with her since June of 2021 and my pup Eddie adores her. Rebecca recommended that Eddie start puppy socialization at 9 weeks, and to-date, he's the most sociable pup on the playground. I don't think he'd be like that if it wasn't for her. Now, he heads to Bark Buddies daycare once a week and he comes home completely wiped. Rebecca sends updates throughout the day with photos and he always has the biggest smile. She also reenforces our training and commands. Honestly, can't recommend her enough.

My dog Daisy loves her walks with Bark Buddies! Everytime she sees Rebecca she gets so excited and always has the best time. She comes back very tired and very happy. Would definitely recommend!

If you are looking for a reliable, professional, responsible and considerate boarding or daycare service for your dog, look no further. It’s so great to have that peace of mind when on holiday far away, knowing your beloved pup is being well taken care of as if they were in their own home. I received plenty of adorable photos of my pup looking happy and healthy. Rebecca is a true professional in an unregulated field, which speaks highly of her work ethic and character. After dealing with the lack of professionalism and unreliability with Rover, I am so thankful I have met Rebecca.

Rebecca at Bark Buddies is amazing! My dog loves her so much, and looks forward to his daycare. Rebecca is reliable and professional. During daycare, my pup gets lots of exercise and always comes home exhausted! Rebecca sends cute pics and updates throughout the day which is super kind. We love Bark Buddies and will use Rebecca’s services for years to come!
