About Cindy:

I am a 20-year resident of Ottawa. Having attained a certificate in Animal Care Techniques from St. Lawrence College in Kingston, ON, as well as having experience working at one of North America's largest animal hospitals as well as for various non-profit organizations, such as The Ottawa-Carleton Wildlife Centre, and the Ottawa Humane Society, I decided to start my own business in the spring of 2001.

I am a natural animal lover and avid exercise junkie, so what else could I do but walk dogs for a living! Even in the long winter months and the hot summer days of the Ottawa Valley, I love what I do and it reflects in the quality of my care, and shows in the smiles of my clients (dogs and humans alike!)

I have put my experience and educational background to good use, to ensure that your dog AND you are completely satisfied day in and day out. Your satisfaction is my commitment to you. As I have proven time and time again, I never miss an opportunity to go "above and beyond" for my clients.

My love for dogs, my rapport with them and all other animals is unparalleled.


About Alex:

I recently joined Wanna Go For a Walk full time after careers in sales, marketing, Special Effects and graphic design did not bring me the satisfaction I was craving. Now I spend my days with dogs, outdoors, where I belong!

I have been in Ottawa since the early 80's, and had previously lived in Europe and Asia prior to settling here.
I have been around dogs my entire life and am excited, every day, to do something with animals for a living!

Together, Cindy and Alex have been involved in numerous animal-related charities and organizations, with both domestic animals and wildlife, locally, nationally, and internationally.

Cindy and Alex have been together since 1995 and married since 2001.
