@happypawsandhomes - Hailee's Business

-

Haliee is an amazing friend I knew from working at an Arts and Culture venue. 

Lately, I learned that she runs a business catered to pets and home care. I wanted to learn more about her latest project. I spoke to her about her latest project, talked about her new business, her beginnings and how she was passionate about dogs and families. 

Brian (B) - Tell me a bit of yourself, and your company. 

Haliee (H) - "My company is called @happypawsandhomes.
Here at my company, I take care of your dogs and homes. 
I provide a home/dog sitting care when families go away on vacations, and daily walks throughout their busy week. 
When families come back; from work and vacations, they can always expect a clean house and their dogs cared for!"


B - When did you decide to start the project?


H - "I started this project recently in 2024, 
however, the ground work started in 2018."


B - Why and how were you compelled to start this project?


H - "Since 2018, I'd been connecting with families across Etobicoke. (West of Toronto) I worked at daycares, schools and homes. I trained with a dog behavioural specialist learning the ropes. 
I used apps like; 'WeNeedaDateNight' and 'Rover' to gain more experience and clientele. 
During COVID, I taught children classes online. 
I recently updated the first aid requirements and infant CPR. 
I am super passionate about kids, dogs and sublime organization. 
My biggest passion is working with dogs. 
I love dogs SO much!"


B - Tell me about some of the things that customers took away from their experience with you?


H - "Currently I have 30+ families in Etobicoke who need my services regularly. 


The referral program has been working well, Amazing mothers refer me to other mothers! In return, they get thank you cards, little gifts, and discounts on services."


Review from a great client of mine:

B - How should they 

get in contact with you?


H - "Things were growing in 2024, It was time to make this dream a reality!
@HappyPawsandhomes
I am officially offering daily dogs and home care service!"

2024

As 2024 draws to a close, I want to wish everyone love this Holiday Season.  This year, I had been hit with several rejections, failures, and breakable moments. Some of wish I'll share below.  I remember coming into this year with hopefulness, glee and the excitement for whats to come. The place I'll go, the people I'll meet and other things that excite me.  That wasn't the case this year. I took out a loan from a loaner company back in 2023, because I needed to pay off the expenses from that year; food, vacations, etc. I had this mindset of 'You only live once, live it while you're young'. That mentality cost me everything. I took out a personal loan thinking I'll pay it all back with the amount they'll give me.  After looking at my bank accounts, I realized I needed to do something about it.   Also, the anxiety of telling your parents and loved ones, confessing to this situation and releasing all the tension and scarcity is painful. Not realizing t...

Ella Clarens is a great friend of mine who we used to work at Nordstrom in 2021.  Oddly enough, we met at different departments, she was working at a different department and I was working as a Holiday Village - creating custom-made Santa bags, selling ornaments, replenishing items, and don't get me started on how many gift wrappings we would need to do by December 24th. It was insane!  I met her because when my department wasn't busy, I usually talk with her about life, work, and her passions.  Picture from: Freddy from Ego Eros Studios Lately, I found out that she is also a musician who released a couple of songs, "ELLANATION", "BIRTHDAY PARTY", and in December 2021, "ICONIC".  Nowadays, she writes her own newsletter which talks about her music, life and her past as a reporter for the Calgary Herald. Also, she spotlights on different people from around Toronto, showcasing talent and interviewing people.  Sign up for her newsletter here:  https://...

First Electric Streetcar in Canada

On May 3rd, I wanted to check out this wonderful (and free!) Museum with a coffee shop nearby, and you would not believe where the first Canadian Electric Streetcar took place in.  Windsor, Ontario. Yes, Windsor, Ontario was the first-ever Electric streetcars that we 'in-use' in Canada. This was back in the mid-1800s, more specifically in 1886.  First Electric Streetcar in Canada Once the city decided to refurbish the vintage streetcars that were used, they coated in fresh paint, updated signs; hanging billboards that were used back in the 60's, and all signs and keep maintenance at bay. They were focusing on making it, not only keeping it looking like a nostalgic piece of work, they tried to innovate the streetcar.  They placed it on a track, with heavy equipment and careful delicacy to ensure the parts are kept in pace, they can reopen it in for all Windsorites (aka city of Windsor citizens) and the rest of the world to open. Me with the streetcar The background behind ...
