COVID-19 Safety
Hand Washing
As always, we will wash our hands at the beginning and end of each pet care visit and dog walk.
Social Distancing
We will maintain social distancing practices while out on dog walks, keeping 6 feet away from others during our walks. We will conduct new client meets outdoors when possible, and will maintain social distancing during any in-person interactions with others.
Self-Assessment & Screening
Staff and clients will report to us any signs or symptoms of illness. Staff will stay home if unwell and we will not visit the home of a client who is unwell. Our staff will use the Shared Health MB Assessment Tool each day before leaving home.
Low Risk
Because our staff work independently, mostly outdoors, and usually visit homes when clients are at work or on holidays, our services are very low-risk for spreading illness between people.

Following Expert Recommendations
We will continue to follow any and all recommendations and requirements set out by the Government of Manitoba and the Chief Medical Officer.

*We are only returning to dog walking and pet sitting on a gradual basis for people whose workplaces are beginning to re-open.
