About: I have been a dog owner for over 20 years. I recently had to let my ole girl pass over the rainbow, such an heartbreaking decision to make. She was happy as the only dog if the house and I had a desire for more happy tails! So I decided to start walking dogs and doing pet visits so that I could fulfill my need for more waggy tails! I do work a local job that runs Monday -Friday, but am done by 3:15. I schedule my walks for 3:15 and after.I do get a 30 min lunch break that I can do washroom breaks for pets if needed. Walks are 30-45 mins. I do have weekends and evenings off, this is where I make the time for pups/cats. I do not tend to bring other dogs to my home, I have done so on occasion but only after my dog has had a chance to meet our new furry visitor. I do dog walks, visits and out door adventures for your pup. I even take some of my 4 legged friends to the back country roads, for that nice open free run!
“Becky was fantastic - so easy to work with my crazy schedule and constant changes. I so appreciated that! And she gave me lots of updates and pics so I knew how my girl was doing!!! Shelby seemed to do well, despite being a bit of a nervous kid and having never met Becky or been to her place. I would definitely pick Becky again to watch my pup!”
“Bobo was a happy boy here! Only recommendation is unless you normally have your dogs outside, try to plan to head to a dog wash after. Bo was pretty dusty as to be expected.”
“My dog was at Sarah's once for daycare and when we left him for boarding he was super excited to go there. Sarah sent regular updates and left me at ease, knowing he was being well cared for.”
“Skye always has the best time when she stays with Laura and John! We always know we are leaving our girl in the best care. They have a beautiful property and two lovely golden retrievers. Skye always returns to us happy and exhausted from all of the fun and excitement. Highly recommend!”

About: I have been blessed with the ability to dog sit all sorts of breeds for the past 13 years. From toy poodles, Shih Tzu’s, to Doberman pinschers. I have loved every minute of it. I especially enjoy working with senior pets. I love to bring them some fun as well as calmness in their senior years and love on them as much as possible. I love getting to take things at their speed. Having just lost the ten year old Doberman I had cared for full time for a year and a half, having taken some time to mourn her loss, I am now ready to bring on someone new. I am available to come to your home, where your dog is most comfortable to sit for the day or even a few hours. Or if it is more convenient to welcome your dog into my home. I love being able to take dogs for walks for some good exercise or just to get their business done. I will treat your dog as if they are my very own, and I mean that! As a stay at home mom, with my children getting older and currently in middle school, I am looking for something to get me out of the house, and bring me a sense of fulfillment. I love having a really good reason to go for a walk. Having a dog to walk is to me the ultimate reason to get outside! I am extremely flexible to schedule and whatever routine will meet you and your dogs needs. I have a small fenced back yard. I live just off of Kin Kanyon and there are many trails to be taken advantage of. I do have a cat who simply ignores most dogs. If she is a concern I can happily put her into the basement with the door closed while the dog is visiting.

I have an unfenced yard, so your dog would always be on a leash. I have a small senior dog that usually would accompany me on walks.

Claire sent pictures and when is was time to go home, Winnie wasn’t in THAT big of a hurry to come inside when Claire and son dropped Winnie off.”
“My dog obviously had a lot of fun with Sarah's dog because he didn't want to wake up this morning and went back to sleep right after his walk. The updates I received during his stay were much appreciated too!”
About: I have nine years experience taking care of our dear animals. They are a wonderful gift to us. I have taken in animals that had no home and made them happy. I understand that your pet is a part of your heart and you can feel relieved that him/her is in good care ❤ with me. Animals have an amazing sense of energy. I always gave off a good sense of energy :) That's why they trust me. Of course, in some cases the animal will need time to warm up as even humans do. I have rescued four cats in my lifetime from the Calgary Humane Society. They all were healthy, happy and loved. I even let them sleep with me in bed :)
About: "Dogs are my people, I understand them better!" Is what I like to say . Hey there ,I love hanging out with pups and they seem to love me too! I've got tons of experience with dogs. I used to work at doggy daycares, and I've grown up with dogs around all my life. I even have two furry friends of my own! My Australian Shepherd is super friendly and loves going for walks and runs, so your pup can expect to get plenty of exercise. My roommate's Boxer/Pitbull mix is a big softie with a booming bark, but don't worry, he's just excited to meet new friends! By the end of the day, your pup will be happily worn out. If you'd like to work on any training with your dog, I'm happy to help! I've trained my own dogs and even helped out my mom with hers. I'll be with your dog the whole time they're here, so you can relax knowing they're in good hands. Let me know if you have any questions! And tell me little about your dog and their needs. Currently not working . So with the help of my two furry friends, I have all the time and love to give your pet a fun and enriching stay! I'd be happy to care for your dog in a safe, trusting, and comfortable environment! Here's how I'll ensure their well-being: * Safety First: We'll meet beforehand so I can assess your dog's temperament and make sure they're a good fit for my home and our dogs get along. On walks, I'll keep them securely leashed, and they will never be left unsupervised at my home . * Trust and Routine: To minimize disruption, I'll stick to their regular feeding and walking schedule as much as possible. I'll follow your instructions for care and medications, and use cuddles, playtime positive training to build a bond. * Homey Comfort: my house is dog proofed already as I have 2 dogs. They'll have a comfy bed, fresh water, and their favorite toys from home to feel at ease. ( I suggest usually toy from home to add comfort to their stay) Regular cleaning will ensure their living area is fresh and hygienic. By following these steps, your dog will have a positive and stress-free stay in my home.
“Anushka took great care of Montego. She was great at sending pictures and updating on how he was doing. Montego had so much fun he didn’t want to leave at the end of the say. I would highly recommend her :)”

“Was able to help me last minute when I was sick and my husky was getting stir crazy. Showed up early for walk and was very polite. When Bruce came back he looked like he had an awesome time.”
About: Hello! My name is Luisa, and my pets are my whole world. I promise to take care of your babies as if they were my own. I am especially passionate about working with animals who may be fearful or have special needs. I have previously completed a two-year apprenticeship under a force-free dog trainer in Calgary, and although I am not currently working as a trainer due to completing my master's, what I learned informs all my interactions with animals. Through fostering and our own pets, I have experience administering medications to a wide range of animals (dogs, cats, bearded dragons, geckos, hedgehogs). At home, my husband and I have two dogs, a cat, and a multitude of reptiles and exotics. We also foster from time to time, which has given us experience with so many other species and personalities. Please let me know if you have any questions, I'd love to answer them. I am completing my master's degree and have a practicum placement from September to March, quite a distance from our home in SE Calgary. I'm hoping to pet sit to save on some driving, and also to have animal companions during this time! I may have some additional availability outside from what I have set in Rover - if our schedules don't align exactly, please feel free to message! My pets would describe me as a helicopter mom, I would describe me as attentive! When I travel, our pet-sitter gets a multi-page document on everyone's needs, so I am not intimidated to receive the same; this just means I can adjust my routine to your pet(s)'...it is their home after all!

I’ve raised dogs of different breeds. My friends and family trust me with their pets and my dogs are my babies. I love meeting new dogs and I’m looking forward to meeting yours! 🙂 I work a 14/14 rotation and when I’m not at work I like to spend my days outside doing activities which include lots of walks at three mile bend (Marley loves the river) and we do lots of walks around my neighbourhood. There are some really nice walking trails we like to explore. While I am home I have no obligations that will interfere with me caring for your pet. My house has a huge backyard that is completely fenced with nothing that puppies or adult dogs can get into. It’s well kept. My dog Marley, LOVES having friends over.
About: I’ve grown up either with a dog or taking care of dogs for my family & friends. I dog sit for friends regularly. We have a Chihuahua.

I can feed them, walk them & play with them. I can’t take any pets to my home, but will gladly come to your home to check on them or feed etc. I currently work my own hours with my day-to-day job, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to make time whenever your pets need care.

About: I have been a dog owner for over 20 years. I recently had to let my ole girl pass over the rainbow, such an heartbreaking decision to make. She was happy as the only dog if the house and I had a desire for more happy tails! So I decided to start walking dogs and doing pet visits so that I could fulfill my need for more waggy tails! I do work a local job that runs Monday -Friday, but am done by 3:15. I schedule my walks for 3:15 and after.I do get a 30 min lunch break that I can do washroom breaks for pets if needed. Walks are 30-45 mins. I do have weekends and evenings off, this is where I make the time for pups/cats. I do not tend to bring other dogs to my home, I have done so on occasion but only after my dog has had a chance to meet our new furry visitor. I do dog walks, visits and out door adventures for your pup. I even take some of my 4 legged friends to the back country roads, for that nice open free run!
