Our home

Our home in the city is a single unit in a triplex (owned by us). It doubles as a hair salon so it has been modified to accommodate (no stove - induction plate and air fryer used). It is 2 stories with 1 full bath and 2 bedrooms (1 king, 1 double). It is located right off the Main Street of Little Italy in Ottawa so lots to enjoy. Parking is available.

favoriteWhat we love about our area

Little Italy is one of Ottawa's most vibrant and walkable neighbourhoods, offering the perfect blend of urban convenience and community charm. You'll be steps from some of the city's best restaurants, cafés, bakeries, and patios along Preston Street, while still enjoying nearby parks, green spaces,

Our pets

DogsDogs (1)
We are looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced person to provide care for our 2.5-year-old Cane Corso mix.

He is a well-behaved, affectionate 100 lb dog who absolutely loves people and enjoys meeting new friends. He is house-trained, friendly, and a pleasure to be around.

Important: He is not suitable for those with small animals (including cats and rabbits), as he has a strong prey drive. He does well with people but should be the only pet or be in a home with compatible larger dogs as he plays rough, depending on experience.

We are looking for someone who:
-Has experience with large-breed dogs.
-Is comfortable exercising a large dog on leash.
-Will treat him like part of the family while he's in their care.

If you're an experienced dog lover and think you'd be a great match, we'd love to hear from you. Please tell me a little about yourself and your experience with large dogs.
