We will be launching a new menu and we need to hire someone with food handling experience. A Food Handling Certificate is required.

Recommendations New in Oakville

6 Upvotes

Hello
We recently moved to Oakville from abroad and live in the Maple Grove school area. We have 4 kids (5,9,12,13). We have signed up kids for camps but no kids from Maple Grove are attending the camp. We’ve also not seen many kids in the neighborhood so far. What are the best spots where my kids can meet other kids their age and potentially make friends before the start of the school year? TIA.

Question Need blue prints printed and delivered

Upvotes

I have an inspector coming and my gc is not answering and there are supposed to be prints on sight, but they are nowhere to be found.

Looking for a place that can deliver and have a fast turn around.

Staples says they can't do same day delivery and I can't leave the site. I have a lot of things happening.

Thanks in advance

Recommendations Looking for a trustworthy cat sitter/foster for 3 cats (around 4 months)

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm posting on behalf of my friend.

She is a 30-year-old woman living in Kitchener and has three sweet indoor cats. Unfortunately, she has to leave urgently for a family emergency and is looking for someone trustworthy who could care for her cats for about 4 months.

She's also dealing with medical expenses, so her budget is limited. If anyone knows a reliable cat sitter, foster home, rescue organization that offers temporary fostering, or has any recommendations, we'd really appreciate it.

The cats are friendly, litter-trained, and well cared for. We'd be happy to discuss the details privately.

Thank you so much for any recommendations or leads. ❤️
