Dog care tips for Toronto
Keep your dog happy through Toronto's hot summers and cold winters.
Winter paw care
Toronto sidewalks are heavily salted in winter. Rinse paws after every walk or use dog booties to prevent irritation.
Summer heat safety
Temperatures can exceed 35 degrees with humidity. Walk early morning or after sunset and always carry water.
Leash laws
Dogs must be leashed in all public areas except designated off-leash parks. Fines start at $365.
Condo living
Many Toronto dogs live in condos. Regular walks and daycare keep high-rise pups happy and well-exercised.

Yes. Every Petme booking starts with a free meet-and-greet. You and your dog get to meet the sitter in person before any booking is confirmed. You only go ahead when you are both comfortable - and most dog owners say the meet-and-greet is the step that gives them the most confidence. There is no charge for the meeting and no obligation to proceed.
