“Karlee is an amazing sitter! Our Jasper spent 2 weeks with her while we were gone and we constantly got updates! Not just words but pictures as well! She is so flexible with us and we appreciate it. Jasper enjoyed his time and he came back healthy and happy as well as extremely tired! Highly recommend her as a sitter and we will be using her again in the future. 😊”
“Tanya was amazing with our girl, took her for walks and gave her lots of love while we were away. We also got updates every day and felt totally comfortable leaving our dog there. Definitely recommend. Thanks again, Tanya!”
“Our first time using Joanne. We will definitely be using her again. Joanne sent us pictures and videos daily, kept us confident that our boy was well taken care of. No wonder Joanne has so many repeat customers… we’ll definitely be one of them.”
“Nichole is amazing!! She is amazing at sending pictures and updates that eased our minds tremendously. Quick to respond to messages and flexible. We have an Akita that is very particular on meeting new friends and has food intolerances and she did a great job and he warmed up to her. Nichole had some toys which Hank loved, and even gave one to him to take home. 100% recommend Nichole, and trust her completely with Hank and Moose.”
“Sonya did an amazing job taking care of Winnie. She's a dog whisperer and she really made Winnie feel relaxed and loved. Winnie loved her time there and quickly became apart of Sonya's pack. I highly recommend Sonya. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Teaghan was wonderful to chat with leading up to time of drop off - this was just as important for me, as she was genuinely interested in how to keep our dog safe, comfortable and well taken care of. She was even willing to meet before hand to get to meet and greet with our pup as it was our first time using a sitter for our dog. Frequent texts, picture updates and great exercise Completed the care for our dog. I could tell on pick up that our dog wasn’t stressed, nor eager to leave. Would definitely recommend Teaghan for her services and will use her again, myself, for any doggy sitting needs. Great work, keep it up!”
“Another great time for our fur babies with Penny. Normally when we are away longer they are somewhat stressed but with Penny they are very happy when we pick them up. Thanks for taking such good care of Blue and Maple!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for pets since I was young, helped friends and neighbours, and spent three years fostering dogs as a family. I truly love what I do. Pet care is naturally part of my daily routine. I’m home regularly, with plenty of time for walks, play, cuddles, feeding and keeping a comfortable, calm environment. I love making sure every dog feels safe, happy and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I provide a clean, secure and loving environment with plenty of supervision, outdoor time, play and rest. I take time to understand each dog’s personality, routine and needs, and treat every pet as an individual and part of the family.
“Aaron sent so many updates and as an anxious dog mom with an anxious pup this was so appreciated. She said my girl got along well with her pups and I love that she had extra pup friends to keep her company while I was away. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone and it was a very positive one. Will absolutely be using Aaron in the future again!”
“Kandie was not only super accommodating and personable, she also put my heart at total ease with my pup. She sent photos, took her for walks, had her in the pool, everything. I think my dog felt like she was the one on vacation. Would fully recommend her and will surely seek out her services again.”
About: I have owned dogs for over 20 years from small to large breeds. I can provide safety checks and potty breaks for you fur babies. Currently I have plenty of time to help with your pets. I will treat them as if they were my own and give them lots of attention. I provide a safe environment for my pets at home and would ensure that your pets are safe before leaving them after a visit. I would always notify the client if there were any concerns immediatly.
About: Like many others, I have been blessed with having the ability to care for animals throughout my life. In 2015, I had the wonderful opportunity to follow my passion professionally. I began working in a veterinarian clinic as a receptionist, technician assistant and external boarding for cats. After the adoption of our beloved Trixie in 2018, my focus shifted to behavior training while continuing care within the small animal medical atmosphere. Recently, I became certified as a professional pet dog trainer and specialized in aggression/reactivity/seperation anxiety. I continue my education through conferences/mentor sessions and am working towards becoming CCPDT certified. I am also an enrichment scent work instructor. I also have my Canine First Aid certification. If you are looking for someone to care for your companion, and would like to add any of the services that are mentioned above during their time with me (or at another time), I would love to get to know you and your companion. I am currently a stay at home mom and provide individualized training consultations as well as general pet care during early mornings and evenings during the week (including weekends). I offer limited care (1 or 2 dogs at a time) in my own home during the day if need be. My only requirements are that your companion not have prey drive (I do have cats and young children) and are good with another female adult dog. I have a large fenced in yard, and can accommodate your specific instructions/requirements as much as possible. Your companion will always be supervised and never left unattended.
“First time to use this service, Cheree was great on keeping in contact and sending pics, and the kids and my Enzo had a great time together. I really appreciated the updates and pics as I was a nervous mama leaving her Velcro dog. Very happy that he was well cared for!”
About: Have done a lot of fostering for an animal rescue so comfortable with a large variety of breeds. We enjoy getting out so your dogs won’t be bored. I work in a school so I am off on weekends, all major holidays and all summer. But love daily walks and my schedule is very accommodating. I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs. We do have cats in the home but they don’t care about other pets. Non smoking home.

“Andrea was excellent at looking after our 2 diabetic cats. Being diabetic they require set feeding times and insulin injections twice daily. She was able to accommodate our schedule, which was very appreciated. One of our cats can also get quite anxious when we are away, so requires attention and cuddles. Andrea was great at giving both of them this, playing with them and spending time giving them attention. We recommend Andrea for pet sitting, and will be using her services again!”
About: I've grown up around pets, and have experience with dogs, cats, horses, a lizard and fish, from all stages of life. I currently help my family care for four dogs, two cats, and three horses. Two of the dogs have issues with their hind legs, giving me experience with animals that have specific mobility needs. I'm also able to take care of dogs of all sizes, having grown up with small, medium, and large dogs. I currently pet sit casually for a friend, taking care of cats and dogs with differing needs (i.e. diet and the ability to go outside). I have the most experience working with animals in rural areas, but I am able to care for pets in urban areas too. I'm currently off for the summer, until I start school in the fall. This gives me plenty of time to take care of your pets so you can enjoy the summer without having to worry. I'm available short notice, and I can commit to long, full-time stays. I'm not as available starting September, but I can definitely do some pet sitting in the Calgary area. I'm very meticulous when it comes to taking care of your pets. Whatever their schedule, I'll make sure to follow it to a tee. If they need full-time care, I'll be there. I'm also a huge rule follower and hold myself to a high standard, so you can be sure they're getting great care. I've grown up around a lot of different animals and have taken care of a friend's furry bunch that have different and specific needs, and different personalities. Whether your pet has specific dietary, grooming, mobility or other needs, I'll do my best to fulfill them. I'll make sure to take the utmost care of your fur baby (or fur babies) so they feel comfortable and cared for.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds ever since I was a child. I have always had a passion for animals and have never lived in a home without them. Friends, families, neighbours, and colleagues have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and brush their furry loved ones. I have two dogs (Buddo and Eevee) who are trained off leash and on leash; they are incredibly friendly and love to play with other dogs. I am a teacher with full-time availability for doggy day care, walks, or checking in on your furry loved ones in the summer! Once the school year starts up, I am only available on weekends. When caring at my own home: I have two friendly dogs of my own, with a very large backyard for play time. The yard is split into two separately fenced areas, which allows for some quiet time from my own dogs if necessary. When caring in your home: I am comfortable crating your furry friend, administering medication, and following special feeding instructions if necessary. I send regular photo updates, along with feeding/water updates to ensure you know that your loved ones are safe and cared for.
“Liza was very good with giving Shyanne her injections twice daily & she sent check-ins & check outs twice daily. Ours was different pet sit situation as my mom was their to clean litter boxes & feed them so I cannot comment on that. I will highly recommend Liza as she was on time for daily injections & Shyanne was good with her giving injections.”

“Sara helped out last minute and was super accommodating to take care of our Annie! The house was spotless when she left as well. Very grateful for services and we would love to have her back.”
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was a young teenager. Dogs are truly my passion. I have been caring for digs of all ages from neonatal puppies, to senior dogs and am confident I can provide care that is just like family to your dog. I have pets of my own who get daily care (walks, play time, training time) daily. I am excited for the opportunity to care for other dogs too! In my home my pets are on a daily routine, we get up in the morning to potty and play, then relax for a bit before we go out on a walk. We train throughout the day in small sessions. Routine is the best for any dog.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Amanda! She was in our home for overnight stays over a 2 week period caring for our cat. Amanda put us completely at ease from day one which is very unique when essentially trusting a stranger with all the personal belongings and beloved pet to vacation out of the country. Her communication was outstanding. She was incredibly flexible in accommodating our cat's schedule. We really appreciated that she routinely sent thorough updates alongside wonderful photos. Amanda was so observant, asked thoughtful, clarifying questions to keep a close eye on our cat’s usual behavior and routines, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. She went above and beyond her sitting duties by keeping our plants watered and leaving our home clean and secure. Amanda truly exceeded every expectation, and we feel so lucky to have met her through Rover. We will absolutely be booking her again if needed.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine passion for caring for cats. I’ve raised nearly 50 cats over the years, each with their own unique personality, needs, and quirks—so I truly understand feline behavior and how to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your cat is playful, independent, or requires a little extra patience, I tailor my approach to fit their temperament. I’m also experienced in administering oral medications and keeping things spotless—deep-cleaning litter boxes and maintaining clean feeding areas are part of the routine. Your cat’s well-being is my top priority, and I’m here to provide reliable, loving care while you’re away.

About: We welcome only one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your pup enjoys a calm, personalized stay with our family in a peaceful home setting. My retired parents love having dogs around and are home throughout the day, so your dog has plenty of company, care, and attention. Your pup is rarely left alone. We know every dog is different, so we take the time to learn their routine, personality, and what helps them feel comfortable. Our goal is for your dog to feel safe, relaxed and at home while you’re away. I know leaving your dog with someone new can be nerve wracking. I’m always happy to do a meet & greet before the first stay. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My parents are both retired and genuinely love having dogs around the house. Between my parents and me, there’s almost always someone home, so your dog will have plenty of company throughout the day. We also only take a small number of dogs at a time because we want each one to get plenty of attention and feel comfortable here, not just be one of many. We have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run and play, along with plenty of cozy spots inside. We also back onto a park, so walks are easy and there’s always something new to explore.

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was a young teenager. Dogs are truly my passion. I have been caring for digs of all ages from neonatal puppies, to senior dogs and am confident I can provide care that is just like family to your dog. I have pets of my own who get daily care (walks, play time, training time) daily. I am excited for the opportunity to care for other dogs too! In my home my pets are on a daily routine, we get up in the morning to potty and play, then relax for a bit before we go out on a walk. We train throughout the day in small sessions. Routine is the best for any dog.

“Karlee is an amazing sitter! Our Jasper spent 2 weeks with her while we were gone and we constantly got updates! Not just words but pictures as well! She is so flexible with us and we appreciate it. Jasper enjoyed his time and he came back healthy and happy as well as extremely tired! Highly recommend her as a sitter and we will be using her again in the future. 😊”
“Tanya was amazing with our girl, took her for walks and gave her lots of love while we were away. We also got updates every day and felt totally comfortable leaving our dog there. Definitely recommend. Thanks again, Tanya!”
“Our first time using Joanne. We will definitely be using her again. Joanne sent us pictures and videos daily, kept us confident that our boy was well taken care of. No wonder Joanne has so many repeat customers… we’ll definitely be one of them.”
“Nichole is amazing!! She is amazing at sending pictures and updates that eased our minds tremendously. Quick to respond to messages and flexible. We have an Akita that is very particular on meeting new friends and has food intolerances and she did a great job and he warmed up to her. Nichole had some toys which Hank loved, and even gave one to him to take home. 100% recommend Nichole, and trust her completely with Hank and Moose.”
“Teaghan was wonderful to chat with leading up to time of drop off - this was just as important for me, as she was genuinely interested in how to keep our dog safe, comfortable and well taken care of. She was even willing to meet before hand to get to meet and greet with our pup as it was our first time using a sitter for our dog. Frequent texts, picture updates and great exercise Completed the care for our dog. I could tell on pick up that our dog wasn’t stressed, nor eager to leave. Would definitely recommend Teaghan for her services and will use her again, myself, for any doggy sitting needs. Great work, keep it up!”
“Another great time for our fur babies with Penny. Normally when we are away longer they are somewhat stressed but with Penny they are very happy when we pick them up. Thanks for taking such good care of Blue and Maple!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for pets since I was young, helped friends and neighbours, and spent three years fostering dogs as a family. I truly love what I do. Pet care is naturally part of my daily routine. I’m home regularly, with plenty of time for walks, play, cuddles, feeding and keeping a comfortable, calm environment. I love making sure every dog feels safe, happy and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I provide a clean, secure and loving environment with plenty of supervision, outdoor time, play and rest. I take time to understand each dog’s personality, routine and needs, and treat every pet as an individual and part of the family.
“Aaron sent so many updates and as an anxious dog mom with an anxious pup this was so appreciated. She said my girl got along well with her pups and I love that she had extra pup friends to keep her company while I was away. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone and it was a very positive one. Will absolutely be using Aaron in the future again!”
“Kandie was not only super accommodating and personable, she also put my heart at total ease with my pup. She sent photos, took her for walks, had her in the pool, everything. I think my dog felt like she was the one on vacation. Would fully recommend her and will surely seek out her services again.”
About: I have owned dogs for over 20 years from small to large breeds. I can provide safety checks and potty breaks for you fur babies. Currently I have plenty of time to help with your pets. I will treat them as if they were my own and give them lots of attention. I provide a safe environment for my pets at home and would ensure that your pets are safe before leaving them after a visit. I would always notify the client if there were any concerns immediatly.
About: Like many others, I have been blessed with having the ability to care for animals throughout my life. In 2015, I had the wonderful opportunity to follow my passion professionally. I began working in a veterinarian clinic as a receptionist, technician assistant and external boarding for cats. After the adoption of our beloved Trixie in 2018, my focus shifted to behavior training while continuing care within the small animal medical atmosphere. Recently, I became certified as a professional pet dog trainer and specialized in aggression/reactivity/seperation anxiety. I continue my education through conferences/mentor sessions and am working towards becoming CCPDT certified. I am also an enrichment scent work instructor. I also have my Canine First Aid certification. If you are looking for someone to care for your companion, and would like to add any of the services that are mentioned above during their time with me (or at another time), I would love to get to know you and your companion. I am currently a stay at home mom and provide individualized training consultations as well as general pet care during early mornings and evenings during the week (including weekends). I offer limited care (1 or 2 dogs at a time) in my own home during the day if need be. My only requirements are that your companion not have prey drive (I do have cats and young children) and are good with another female adult dog. I have a large fenced in yard, and can accommodate your specific instructions/requirements as much as possible. Your companion will always be supervised and never left unattended.
About: Have done a lot of fostering for an animal rescue so comfortable with a large variety of breeds. We enjoy getting out so your dogs won’t be bored. I work in a school so I am off on weekends, all major holidays and all summer. But love daily walks and my schedule is very accommodating. I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs. We do have cats in the home but they don’t care about other pets. Non smoking home.
