Welcome to offleash walks, Betty, the Seaton Village French Bulldog! It is impossible to look at you without an awww and a smile.
Welcome Penny, the Queen West Petit Basset Griffon Vandeen!
Penny, the adorable Queen West, Petit Basset Griffon Vandeen, has joined our roster of boarders and we are so happy she did! This cutie couldn’t be any cuter if she tried!
Welcome Wallace, the Summerhill Goldendoodle!
Meet Wallace (Wally), seen with fellow Goldendoodle, Leo, who is clearly enjoying the Toronto snow!
Wally’s been walking with K9 Kate’s on group leashed walks for over a month now and is a terrific addition to our group. Plus, he’s pretty adorable! Welcome Wally!
Welcome Otis, the Bloorcourt Sheepadoodle!
Welcome Otis! This adorable pup started on daily leashed walks about a month ago and is doing so well! We can’t wait for more adventures with you, Otis!
Welcome to offleash walks Cooper, the Summerhill Golden Retriever!
Welcome Cooper! We’re as happy as he is that he joined our park walks. He’s so playful and made quick friends with fellow Goldens’ Leon and Levi. We love you, Cooper!
Welcome Muddy Baby, The Bloorcourt Bernese Mountain Dog!
Muddy Baby recently joined us for one hour long private walks, or what I like to call the sniff and stroll! A walk for a dog is about so much more than exercise. It’s all about the smells! Muddy Baby is one of our many dogs on private walks that pick that option for that reason. They can sniff and stroll and smell the world, offering huge enrichment! We welcome and love you already, Muddy Baby!!
Welcome Scooby: The "Uber" K9 Kate's Dog
Scooby dooby doo, we welcome YOU!
This Seaton Village pup was referred to us by our friends at Uber Dog and we’re so happy they thought of us. Scooby started with a private walk to ensure everything would be as smooth as possible for his first group walk. He probably didn’t even need it though :) This guy is a total love bug. Thanks for choosing K9 Kate’s to be your new Toronto dog walker, and welcome, buddy!

Welcome Back and Welcome Barley!
We hope everyone enjoyed the break. Adorable pictures of our boarders can be found on our Instagram (@k9katetoronto) :) While the pawliday coziness was taking place, this Queen West pup joined our solo walks 2x/day so he could walk and sniff and sample all of snow at his own rate :) Barley, we like that about you and are thrilled to welcome you to our walks!

Welcome Coco, the Bernadoodle Puppy!
This adorable Little Italy puppy was referred to us by our friends at When Hounds Fly and I am proud to say that she continues to soar to new heights with the K9 Kate team.

Welcome Tucker, the Trinity Bellwoods Shih Tzu/Pomeranian Mix!
This little munchkin has been walking with K9 Kate’s since the summer both in the parks offleash and on the streets in small groups. We love him … and we aren’t afraid to show it!

This little angel has joined the K9 Kate’s team for puppy visits, training, and now that she is entering her adolescence, group offleash walks. She is as well-behaved as she is adorable. Her mom is pretty nice too and even left us a five star unprompted review 💥 Way to go, Sally, and thank you for choosing us to be your Toronto dog walker!
Welcome Archie, the Little Italy Cavapoo!
Meet Archie, our newest friend to join our leashed walks!

K9 Kate's Included in Best Toronto Dog Walkers' Lists Again x2
We are thrilled to announce that K9 Kate’s received nominations from The Toronto Star (which none of us saw until after the deadline and missed the chance to tell our clients to vote… because we were working) and another shout out from torontoblogs.ca for being the best of the best when it comes to Toronto dog walking.
Why us? Force free, a small team so you always have a walker, unique services designed to change the game (like the Re-treat and training with walker integration), complimentary meet and greets, a user friendly automated booking and messaging system that couldn’t make things easier and error free for the client, and a one in a million team and group of dogs.
Thank you for supporting us for close to a decade now. We will always be there for you and the dogs as you’ve been there for us!
Welcome to Adventure Walks Zuki, the Harbord Village Australian Shepherd
Zuki has been walking with us for about one month and we just love him! Here he is at Ramsden park with his regular crew Forrest, Billie, Penny and Basil in what is clearly a family portrait :)
We’re so grateful to get to work with such incredible dogs. Zuki (and his pawrents): thank you for choosing K9 Kate’s to be your Toronto dog walker and for keeping it positive (reinforcement)!
