Passionate Dog Lover

Outdoor Adventurer

Hi, I’m Alyssa! As an avid outdoor enthusiast, I thrive on exploring nature and being surrounded by the great outdoors. Whether it’s hiking through forests, wandering trails, or simply soaking up the beauty of the wilderness, I’m happiest when I’m outside—and so is my dog, Kenzee! She’s my ride or die, and it’s rare you’ll see us apart. I couldn’t imagine working without her by my side, which is why I decided to turn my passion for nature and animals into a career in dog walking.

With 8 years of experience working with dogs, including 5 years as a professional dog walker, I’ve had the privilege of working with over 150 dogs of many different breeds. I’ve always been around animals, growing up with both cats and dogs, and I treat every dog in my care with the same love and respect as I do my own.

As someone who lives for outdoor adventures, I know how important it is for dogs to explore and get that fresh air, just like I do. Whether it’s a brisk walk through a neighborhood park or an adventurous trek through the woods, I ensure every outing is filled with excitement and new sights, smells, and experiences. My goal is to lead your dog on fun and relaxing adventures while making sure they feel calm, safe, and secure along the way.

Building trust with each dog is something I value deeply. I’m a gentle soul, and I understand that each dog needs patience, kindness, and care. I want your dog to feel like they’re heading out on a wilderness adventure with a trusted companion—me!

If you're looking for someone who shares your love for the outdoors and treats your dog like family, I’m here to help make sure they get the exercise, love, and adventures they deserve!

Dog Camp

What is Dog Camp?

Canine Wilderness Walks offers a unique dog camp experience in Barrie, ON, with off-leash adventure hikes in the woods. During these hikes, dogs play, socialize, and practice basic commands, helping them regulate their impulses and improve behavior at home. Convenient pick-up and drop-off services ensure your dog gets the exercise and mental stimulation they need while you manage your schedule.

Unlike traditional doggie daycare, Canine Wilderness Walks provides an enriching experience in a natural outdoor environment. Dogs explore the forest in small packs that foster meaningful friendships and allow for individualized attention. This helps dogs play appropriately, burn more energy, and avoid the need for extra outings after camp.

Each dog is transported to off-leash areas for hiking, swimming, and play, where they benefit from real-life training that enhances behavior and boosts confidence. With a focus on physical exercise, mental stimulation, and socialization, Canine Wilderness Walks ensures dogs thrive in the great outdoors.

Hike, swim, run, and play—let your dog thrive in a natural, stimulating environment.

Who is Dog Camp for?

For dog camp, the perfect pals are over 1 year old, friendly, non-aggressive dogs who adore being around people and their furry friends! They should be great listeners, calm when meeting new buddies, and have a solid recall. They love car rides and are ready to embrace all the fun and new adventures!
