“David and Candice were awesome! It was my first time using Rover and I had to book a sitter last minute. Walter and Lily had a great time and I got lots of pictures of them throughout the day. Thank you so much!!”
“Audrey was great with communication, updates while we were away, and I felt a sense of ease leaving our dogs with her. She strikes me as a real dog lover who is highly reliable. Would definitely ask Audrey to watch our dogs again!”
“Freddy was so well looked after! Stephanie and Robert took our boy last minute after original plans fell through and couldn’t have been more welcoming to him. Stephanie sent photos to keep us updated, gave him lots of walks and snuggles and I think he had the best two days of his life! Thank you!”
“Nat was amazing! My dogs looked happy in all the updates. Got them back exercised! She took care of the extensive med care my dog suddenly needed with expertise. Nat was so accommodating when my tour changed and a late pick up. Super wonderful to work with.”
About: Experienced dog-sitter from London, UK. Served two clients loyally for 3.5yrs, looking after their dogs and taking them on day-trip adventures and holidays. Have provided a variety of one-off care for multiple other clients. My husband & I have recently moved to Canada and we are missing our doggo-time! We would love a furry friend to help keep us company. I am taking a career break whilst my husband works as a mountain guide in the Rockies. We lead active lifestyles, but also love relaxing at home. Our building is pet-friendly, and we have a mini dog park outside. We have hard flooring throughout our flat but we would be happy to lay down additional rugs if required, depending on your pet's preferences. We don't have any stairs.
“We couldn’t be happier with Caitlyn’s care for our dog, Rivers. Rivers can be reactive, and Caitlyn handled her with so much patience, confidence, and kindness. She did a trial overnight with her before our trip, which immediately put us at ease. While we were away for 11 days, Caitlyn sent daily photo and video updates, and it was clear Rivers was comfortable, well cared for, and having a great time. Coming home to a happy, relaxed dog says everything. We’re so grateful to have found Caitlyn and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again or recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and communicative sitter.”

Enjoy giving my furry friends cuddles and attention. 🐕♥️ I work Monday to Friday in office hours. I also have the perks of working from home some days a week. Weekends and holidays are my go for dog sitting. Since I want to be present for them and enjoy our time together I have a big fenced yard and also a car ready to take my furry friends to the dogs park or any adventures! I can totally adjust to your dogs needs (crate trained, potty trained, on-training)

I am flexible with the schedule of your needs, if your schedule changes based on last minute appointments, trips or any other circumstances, I will accommodate as needed .

“Kelley was so amazing with our shy pup, Stevie. We decided to board her for one night for a wedding and Kelley was really great at getting her comfortable in her home. We could tell that she has a lot of experience and compassion working with dogs and knew Stevie would be in great hands. We got regular photo updates and Kelley was very easy to communicate with. We would book with her again in a heartbeat next time we’re in Canmore!”
“Easy and effective communication. Very accommodating. I am sure Roxy had a wonderful time playing with the kids. They asked questions when needed and send me a pic during the stay. Thanks a lot, I do recommend this place.”
About: Looking for a doggy daycare that doubles as an outdoor adventure? I’m your sitter! If you want your dog to return home happy, tired and thoroughly fulfilled, you’ve found the right spot. I work from home with a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize outdoor time. Every single daycare stay includes at least one 5–10km hike (or if requested, trail run), or a split routine of two 3–5km walks. I have experience with all breeds, but I specialize in high-energy working dogs (Cattle Dogs, Aussies, and Border Collies). My own best friend Metsä, is a 14-year-old Blue Heeler, so I deeply understand the physical exercise and mental stimulation these breeds need to stay happy. Metsä gets a minimum of 2 hours of outdoor time a day, and I can't wait to meet some new friends and hit the trails together! When I am not travelling for my job, I work from home full. Metsä and I love having another four legged friend at home to go for a nice hike with. I work from a home office and always have your dog in the room with me during the daytime hours. When we go on a walk and out for bathroom breaks your dog will remain on leash at all times.
“This was Daisy’s first time staying with someone she didn’t know and Alex made sure she had lots of fun and was comfortable. She sent pictures to us throughout the day and even took Daisy on a walk. We highly recommend Alex to watch your pup if you are in or passing through Banff!”

“Sarah was very accommodating last minute to check in on my cats for a few days. Sent pictures and updates at every visit and met up beforehand for a meet and greet. Trustworthy and I would hire her again :)”
“Amazing ! Great communication with lots of updates and pics. Our usually traumatized pup warmed up to her almost instantly—which says everything. Jingxi clearly gives so much care and attention. Highly recommend and would 100% book again!”
“Big thank you to Danielle for checking in on our senior kitty during our time away. It was so nice to have the peace of mind that she'd be well taken care of, especially because she is on medications. Danielle was super communicative, and I could tell from the photos that our cat was also a big fan, as she's not normally much of a cuddler! Would definitely book with Danielle again in the future. Thanks again. :)”

About: About me: I've taken care of our own dogs, and horses for over 15 years. I have always been a part of very pet friendly household, and have been looked after others pets in the UK on Rover for over a year, with many regulars. I'm very reliable and experienced and can personalise my services to suit your dog to make them feel comfortable and have the best time!

About: Hi folks! I’m very lucky to have a lot of experience taking care of pets—I've had my own cats and dogs, and I've also looked after some amazing and quirky farm animals! Over the years, I’ve done plenty of pet and house sitting for others (friends, family, and lots of pet-sitting website users), so I’m used to keeping pets happy and making sure everything runs smoothly while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with all kinds of animals and always make sure they’re well cared for and loved. *please note I do not offer pet-sitting in my own home, as I have a cat who isn’t a fan of other animals! **I also usually require at least 48 hours notice to book pet-sitting and dog walks, as I have a very packed schedule! I work part-time in town and am usually pretty available Monday-Friday. I’m flexible and can fit in some dog walks almost daily, but the times may vary depending on the time of year! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make sure to stick to their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. For dogs, I make sure they get plenty of exercise, whether it’s walks, playtime, or backyard runs. I also give them regular meals, fresh water, and lots of attention. For cats, I stick to their feeding schedule, keep their litter boxes clean, and offer playtime to keep them engaged. I treat each pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of affection and monitoring their well-being while their owners are away. For dog walks, I’m always on the lookout for potential hazards and making sure lots of energy is expelled! Maybe a trip to the dog park if appropriate, or a good long walk along the river or up Buffalo Mountain. Happiness, exercise, and good health are the goals, for both the dogs and me!
About: Hi! I’m Hannah, a 26 year old Canadian living out in Banff National Park for the past 4 years. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always felt like second nature to me. Back in high school I started working in dog daycares through a co-op program, and quickly realized this was exactly what I wanted to do. From 2016–2022, I worked in different dog daycare and care centres across Ontario, gaining over 5 years of hands on experience working with dogs of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I want both pets and owners to feel comfortable and confident knowing they’re in good hands. I service the Banff and Lake Louise areas. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and giving them all the love and attention they’re used to at home! Warmly, Hannah Pet care fits really naturally into my routine. I work a regular 9–5 job from during the week, but my evenings are usually pretty quiet, which gives me lots of time to dedicate to pet care, walks, playtime, and keeping pets company. Living in Banff also means I already spend a lot of time outdoors and staying active, so caring for dogs fits perfectly into my lifestyle. I am unable to provide pet care in my own home, but I can travel to the client’s home to care for their pets. I offer services such as dog walking, outdoor exercise, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love while the pet remains comfortable in their own environment or outdoors! :)

About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs and cats ever since I was around 12. I love all animals and I think they’re a gift to this world! I’ve dogsat while traveling as well which has been very nice since I can’t quite get my own dog yet until I’m settled down. I’m working in Banff full time as a server so I’m able to provide care to your dog or cat either before or after my shifts :) I will treat your home and pets with respect. I love giving dogs loads of attention so they will never be bored but if they need their space I can also give them that!
About: Aussie in Banff with lifelong dog experience. Gentle with senior care and patient with puppies, reliable and attentive. Morning availability, outdoorsy, and treat every pet like my own.

“Victoria was amazing with Scout! Quick to respond to my last minute booking and Scout came home happy and tired and had a new friend in Metsä. Will definitely book Victoria’s dog walking services again.”
About: Please see some of my reviews in my photos. I’ve been an avid animal lover my entire life. I was born on a ranch and my first babysitter was my loyal Appaloosa “Appy”. My sidekick was my blue heeler “Bear” I love providing one on one attention to dogs I spend time with. I’ve become the favourite doggo aunty to all of the dogs I have sat for and I’ve been asked back over and over again. I have a very flexible work from home schedule so I can be available for your doggo days, eves and on weekends for walks and sits. I am happy to schedule a meet up to learn safety measures, feeding schedules and walking schedules in your home for your dog (s). I believe dog’s are most comfortable in their own surroundings when they have new faces caring for them.
About: I have been in love with dogs since I was a young girl. I graduated from college with an Animal Care certificate. I have experience as an Animal Care Attendant at Bow Valley SPCA and a vet clinic. I feed the animals and exercise them outside. I clean there pens and make sure to give them any medication they require. Back home in Ontario I give my family dogs baths and groom them as well. I am currently working four days a week but that won’t stop me from watching your doggies. I would love the chance to take care of your dogs when I am free! I will gladly send you pictures and videos of your dogs when you are away to keep you updated! I will always play with your dogs and cuddle with them as well:) I have been missing my dogs back home so I also appreciate photos of my dogs and know how much it means.
“Lyndsie was available on very short notice and was familiar with the area where my dogs love to walk. She sent a video of them playing in the river. My dogs came home happy and tired! I recommend her to anyone with high energy dogs!”
