“Tracy is incredible. She is such a helpful and accommodating person in our lives and Rex absolutely adores her. Can’t say enough great things about Tracy!”
“Stacey and her family were amazing! We felt so at ease leaving Sputten with them for the week. What we loved most was the daily updates and photos. They brought so much joy and comfort as we watched him playing with other dogs and cuddling up. Knowing he was happy and safe allowed us to enjoy our vacation. We were super impressed with Stacey’s ability to replace Sputten’s eye drops when the container got damaged and thought she went above and beyond washing his bed upon our return. We will definitely be booking with Stacey again in the future!”
“Ronilyn was able to provide boarding for our 2 dogs with super short notice after our house sitter cancelled the day before our weekend getaway. This was the first time our girls stayed with someone who wasn’t family or a friend, and Ronilyn made sure we were 100% comfortable with our choice! She sent us pictures of our girls playing and having a good time while we were away.”
“I could not have found better people to take care of my dog. Katrina and Ryan made my dog feel at home and treated her like one of their own. They provided regular updates which eased my mind and reassured me that my dog was ok. Their own dog is lovely, kind and gentle with my dog being in their space. My dog doesn’t normally get along with dogs but she was very comfortable with Katrina’s dog. I will be definitely leaving my dog with Katrina and Ryan in the future.”
“Jennifer was very kind and very patient with my dogs. One of them is quite hyper and anxious, and tends to bark and jump up. Jennifer remained calm and reassuring and reported that the dogs did well at her house. Would definitely ask for her help in the future, whenever I need a dog sitter. Thank you.”
“Jessica was really great. Our dog got multiple trips to the dog park and walks. I got lots of updates, which provided a lot of comfort since she was a new sitter. Our dog had lots of opportunities to cuddle with Jessica, too. I’d recommend and will use again.”
“We were very satisfied with Marilyn’s services, which were all about my dogs care and comfort. We were only away for 2 days and my dog was so comfortable with Marilyn he was just a cuddler to her.”
“10/10 absolutely amazing!! I am very particular when it comes to who cares for my dog and Renee was exactly who I needed. I couldn’t fly with him so when I needed to board him for a week I went over the reviews for what felt like hours. My Rosco is very high energy and she always made sure he was played out either from the other dogs or her playing fetch, she was so amazing to keep up his routine, they were constantly outside, she was so quick to respond and sent photos near daily so I felt very comfortable with his happiness and comfort in her home!!”
“Jeremy & Tina are amazing! They genuinely loved their time with Charlie (and he with them) and went above and beyond the standards of care provided by a typical kennel. They made sure Charlie was cared for in every way, from trips to the dog park to baths and a nail trim to reading him bedtime stories. By the many photos and videos they sent, I was reassured that he was healthy, happy, and very loved during his entire stay. I will definitely chose Jeremy & Tina as Charlie's home when I'm away.”
“Brittany was amazing with our dogs. They seemed to be so comfortable with her right away and she loved on them so well! She sent picture and video updates everyday that we were away. Would absolutely have Brittany watch our dogs again. Highly recommend.”
“Katelyn and her family were so accommodating and the perfect choice to take care of our puppy! They even let him stay a little longer when my plans changed and I really appreciated knowing he was in such good hands! Would definitely book again! Thank you Katelyn ?”
“Exceptional Puppy Sitter!! We had the pleasure of having Heather care for our puppies, Rafiki and Zuri twice this week, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! From the moment we met, it was clear that she is not only experienced but also has a genuine love for animals. She treated Rafiki and Zuri like her own, ensuring that both pups had everything they needed, from playtime to feeding and even some extra snuggles! Heather’s communication was outstanding. She sent us regular updates and adorable photos of Rafiki and Zuri, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that our puppies felt safe and comfortable with her, which made our time apart so much easier. She even took the time to follow any specific instructions we had, ensuring everything went smoothly for both of them. She’s very attentive to detail and handled everything with ease, even when Rafiki and Zuri had a bit of extra energy or needed some additional attention. If you're looking for someone who will give your puppies the best care and attention, Heather is your person! We will absolutely be reaching out to her again and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring puppy sitter. Thank you, Heather, for being such an amazing sitter for Rafiki and Zuri!”
“This was my first time ever booking a dog sitter, and the whole process was honestly so easy and stress free. Vanessa was incredibly accommodating on very short notice and even took the time to meet up beforehand so my dog could meet her family and make sure it was a good fit for everyone. She was amazing with communication from start to finish and was so loving and caring with Joey. I got lots of updates and pictures while I was away, which I really appreciated. Vanessa is a fantastic dog caregiver and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pup.”
“My dog Barley had a great first visit! Large backyard to run around and 2 little dogs to keep her company. Once I brought her home she stared out the patio doors for hours probably waiting for her dog friends to show up❤️”
“I was nervous at first coz my baby never stayed in other people’s house. But Pamela was great. She care and understood my baby situation 😊She gave me pictures when I asked and told me that my cat is alright.”
“Andrea loves her job and takes the extra time to really get to know your pet. She sent updates many times per day and made me feel so relaxed leaving our 9month old puppy with her. We are so fortunate to have found an amazing sitter”
“Linda and her son were amazing dog sitters. Our very anxious dog had a wonderful time with them. We are 100% comfortable with Linda and will use her and her son again the next time we are out of town”
“Highly recommend! My puppy was so happy all weekend with them. They were so loving towards him and sent me picture and video updates very often without me asking. They were so kind and considerate when I had travel delays. They extended my puppies stay for 1 night as I requested when I needed it. I never felt worried for my puppy anytime that I was away because he was in such good hands with them. I plan to book with them again and again if I am able to”

“Ronilyn did an awesome job! My cats were well taken care of. She provided very cute photos of them while we were on vacation. It was comforting to see my cats were happy and well fed. Thank you Ronilyn! I would recommend Ronilyn to all my family and friends ! :)”
“Rylyn was perfect throughout. Our outdoor kitties loved her and she handled our inside kitty who is typically reactive and scared of strangers so well. I would definitely recommend her to others and book her again in the future!”
“Karley was great! It was my first time booking with Rover, and I was slightly nervous. Karley was highly responsive and eased my worries. She also accommodated the booking at the last minute. Although I didn’t have internet connection while away, she sent lovely update photos. It was a pleasure to see them when I got back. I would recommend Karley to anyone!”

“Dawn was amazing, she took in my cat last minute and created a conformable cozy environment for her. She kept me up to date and sent pictures. Quick response and easy communication would recommend.”
About: I’ve been a cat lover and caregiver since the age of five, and over the years, I’ve cared for my own cats as well as regularly cat-sat for friends and neighbors. I'm comfortable with all the basics—feeding, grooming, litter box cleaning, administering simple medications if needed—and I know how important it is to maintain a clean, calm, and safe environment while you're away. I also genuinely enjoy spending quality time with cats, whether that means interactive play, brushing, or simply sitting nearby while they nap. Your cat’s comfort, routine, and well-being are my top priorities. I’ll make sure they get the love and attention they need while you're gone, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they're in good hands.

About: I’ve always lived with a dog, and have experience with every size pup. I have watched friends pups for years as well. We have 2 kids in the house who are more than excited to help out! I work full time away from home, but my spouse works from home, so someone is always around to be with your dog. We are home on weekends, and evenings. I have a fully fenced in yard. If I’m sitting other pets at the time (with approval from both pet owners), we can separate them to give breaks if required, as we have levels in our house to split them apart. Your dog will be walked 1-2 or more times a day, in the morning and evening minimum. If your dog does well off leash, playing fetch in the green field is also an option. We also like to explore Edmonton in the wetlands and enjoy longer walks on weekends.

I would consider taking a dog or two for care at our house.
“Robyn and her family were AMAZING with my dog. It was the first time we have picked him up from a sitter and he didnt show signs of stress. When we picked him up, he was not wearing his harness, which really shows me that they are dog people and knew to take it off when he didnt need it on. Major loved them right away. 10/10 would be using them again.”
“I would surely recommend Jeremy for dog sitting. He constantly provide updates and photos that gives me so much comfort and joy that my georgina is being well taken cared of. Upon picking up my dog, i can see that she is happy and very comfortable with Jeremy. This is absolutely a good sign that my dog had a great time at his place. Will surely re-book with Jeremy soon!”
“Ana is a complete lifesaver. We had major renovations start in our home earlier than expected and my dog is 14 years old this month. No way I could leave hom at home with strangers making sounds at all hours of the day! She was able to take him in last minute, and provided many updates, photos, and videos throughout the day. Honestly, he is so excited to go he screams when he knows we are almost there. She takes better care of him that I probably do. I highly recommend Ana. She is really nice, takes great care of animals, and clearly loves them. Even my old mop of a boy.”

“Ronilyn always communicates quickly and kindly - and she takes the best photos of my dog playing fetch! Very reliable and clearly passionate about caring for fur babies.”
About: I am a new stay at home mom that is used to caring for my children with paws and still learning the tricks to the one with toes. While I love all animals, the big slobbery ones have my heart wrapped around their drool and my big senior (7 yr Great Dane/Mastiff) guy knows it. Our little girl is actually a 120 lb mastiff/pitty cross that just turned 4 and they both love their littlest brothers (an April Fools baby and a 3 lb kitten, both of whom run the house). Killer the cat is actually a big ball of scaredy cat and Mr Fishy the Beta finishes off the attendance list. I would love to meet and care for your family members with fur as well! I am currently on maternity leave and am looking to get out of the house and get some exercise. I am confident in walking large dogs but will have my baby and stroller with me so I ask for pups that won’t pull too much. Since I have a small baby and 4 animals of my own I am not able to stay overnight but can check in any day or time. Having two extra large dogs of my own, I am confident in walking your pup and am familiar in crate training as well. I believe in force free training and can follow your lead to reinforce training and obedience into our walks and visits as well. I strongly follow the idea that trust is the best form of leadership with animals and people.
“Alana was able to come on a last minute request which was amazing, and even without having a meet and greet she was able to convince my nervous dog to go for a walk. She spent time earning my dogs trust who is apprehensive of new people. Alana also has experience walking reactive dogs which was a huge plus for me as my dog is reactive on leash. I cannot recommend Alana enough!”
“Janessa was very accommodating for anything I needed with my dog Blais. She walked her two times a day and even helped with her treatments for her osteoarthritis. Janessa came over for a meet and greet first and Blais instantly adored her! I will definitely hire Janessa for her services again in the future!”
“Margret is amazing with dogs. She is so kind and patient. Kaia very much enjoyed her walk with Margret. Kaia has some issues with reactivity and Margret is so knowledgeable in dealing with this issue. felt 100% comfortable with her taking Kaia on a walk. Will definitely want Margret for more walks!”

“We have used Cari many times for help during the day when my husband is away and she’s always fantastic. We often have last minute bookings and she’s proven reliable and flexible with us, it’s very appreciated.

About: I've been fortunate enough to care for many different animals since I was 12 years old. I've been blessed enough to experience growing up with cats, dogs, peacocks, rabbits, chickens, buggie and many more beautiful and equally unique animals. I'm addition, neighbours, friends and family have relied on me many times to pet sit, walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I'm currently homeschooling my grade 2 kid which usually only takes up 20 to 30 minutes of our day so I have plenty of time to play with and care for your furry or feathered babies. I have fenced yard and a very friendly cat and dog to keep your fur or feathered babies company. Both are very accustomed to growing up around different species of animals we've sat or fostered. My cat has a very large catio he loves to sit in during the day and usually perches himself on his cat castle by the window inside the house for naps or people watching (his favorite thing to do). He loves other animals and is very affectionate and protective towards them, he's a very docile breed and way too friendly for his own good. I do have a crate for dog and spare rooms for cats if a slower introduction is needed. My home is pretty pet friendly and clean and everybody in here will never be short of love, food and affection.

About: I have dog sat for family friends, along with having my own border collie mix, named Foxy. Currently my brother and sister-in-law have a mastiff Pyrenees (very large dog) named Bentley and a Huskey named Max. Helping them with pet care, as they've introduced thier new born into their lives, is something I very much enjoy. Going for walks, playing around, and taking care of Bentley medication needs are my responsibility during my visits. I am blessed to have a career that allows me a week on week off schedule. Two weeks out of the month I am available. In my own home, it's my responsibility to make sure the pet i am taking care of is comfortable and has all their needs met. Cleaning up after and keeping my pet client entertained. I like to have a list from the pet's parents of all requirements, so I know I am doing the best I can. While visiting a clients home, it is very important to have both parties feel comfortable and safe. Being polite and understanding of all requests is how I complete walks. Again, I prefer to follow a list if there is any specific requirements for the pet I am exercising. If able I like to play and be in a dog friendly park with my time with pets.

I care about someone else's home just as much as I'd care for my own! You treat others how you'd wanna be treated also. Just common sense.

“Ronilyn was able to provide boarding for our 2 dogs with super short notice after our house sitter cancelled the day before our weekend getaway. This was the first time our girls stayed with someone who wasn’t family or a friend, and Ronilyn made sure we were 100% comfortable with our choice! She sent us pictures of our girls playing and having a good time while we were away.”
“I could not have found better people to take care of my dog. Katrina and Ryan made my dog feel at home and treated her like one of their own. They provided regular updates which eased my mind and reassured me that my dog was ok. Their own dog is lovely, kind and gentle with my dog being in their space. My dog doesn’t normally get along with dogs but she was very comfortable with Katrina’s dog. I will be definitely leaving my dog with Katrina and Ryan in the future.”
“Jennifer was very kind and very patient with my dogs. One of them is quite hyper and anxious, and tends to bark and jump up. Jennifer remained calm and reassuring and reported that the dogs did well at her house. Would definitely ask for her help in the future, whenever I need a dog sitter. Thank you.”
“Jessica was really great. Our dog got multiple trips to the dog park and walks. I got lots of updates, which provided a lot of comfort since she was a new sitter. Our dog had lots of opportunities to cuddle with Jessica, too. I’d recommend and will use again.”
“Brittany was amazing with our dogs. They seemed to be so comfortable with her right away and she loved on them so well! She sent picture and video updates everyday that we were away. Would absolutely have Brittany watch our dogs again. Highly recommend.”
“My dog Barley had a great first visit! Large backyard to run around and 2 little dogs to keep her company. Once I brought her home she stared out the patio doors for hours probably waiting for her dog friends to show up❤️”
“Andrea loves her job and takes the extra time to really get to know your pet. She sent updates many times per day and made me feel so relaxed leaving our 9month old puppy with her. We are so fortunate to have found an amazing sitter”
“Linda and her son were amazing dog sitters. Our very anxious dog had a wonderful time with them. We are 100% comfortable with Linda and will use her and her son again the next time we are out of town”
“Jenna was very flexible with my schedule, took Ela for walks, ensure she ate her food and much more! Ela has been very well cared for and was tired when she got home. I will be rebooking with Jenna for sure! ❤️”
“Murray and Patricia were amazing to my dog, they made her feel right at home, they reassured me with photos and videos multiple times a day that Luna was having a blast and making friends. Luna made lots of friends that met her energy, I will definitely rebook with them!!”
“Jill was amazing! Had to find a new sitter after a last minute cancellation and she was so accommodating! She provided updates & photos everyday, and Mia was so happy to stay with her! Will definitely book with her for all future boarding needs :)”
“All I can say is that my experience with Nicole was beyond what I expected she took time to make sure my dogs were safe and loved while I was working in Calgary, so if you need someone who really cares about your dogs don’t think twice o totally recommend Nicole and for sure I’m going to leave my dogs with her from now on.”
“We were so worried about leaving our dog with someone else due to her fear and anxiety. Nicole eased all of worries within an hour of our pup staying with her. We were constantly sent videos and pictures and it helped us enjoy our trip more knowing our dog was being well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend Nicole to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter they feel comfortable with!”
“Vayda took amazing care of Zelda for the few weeks I was away. She sent updates to let me know how Zelda was doing. Vayda is responsible, respectful, and very polite. Highly recommend!”
