“Carina was exceptional at providing many pictures and videos of my little girls experience. I could see she was in her glory with all her walks. I was worried she wouldn’t want to come home. Great experience! I’d use them again with no hesitation!!”

“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!”

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!

“We absolutely love Julie. Great communication. Deals with all the ups and downs our boys can throw at her so amazingly. We trust her completely taking care of our boys and highly recommend her.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Teaghan provided for our seven cats while we were away. Managing that many personalities is a challenge on its own, but she handled everything with patience, kindness, and attention to detail. We felt completely at ease the entire time. Not only did she take care of all the essentials like feeding, playtime, and litter changes, she went above and beyond by bringing in our delivered packages, and cleaning up the chaos left in our cats determination to destroy our house. With seven cats who love to make a mess, coming home to a clean house with relaxed, happy pets was such a gift. Her communication was great, her updates were reassuring, and it was clear she genuinely cared about our furballs. We’re incredibly grateful for everything she did and would absolutely recommend Teaghan to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and truly exceptional pet sitter.”

About: Cats have been part of my world since I was a child. I’ve always felt drawn and at home with them and their special quiet energy. I enjoy their company, their personalities, and the comfort that they bring. I am lucky that they usually gravitate to me too, as we know cats can be particular. I love to meet new furry friends. If I’m lucky enough to spend time with your kitty, I’ll care for them with the same affection and love that I give my very own. I am used to cleaning cat boxes, and picking up hair balls and carrying their furr that clings to us like affectionate memories.

About: I have taken care of rescue dogs, both young mom and pups, along with pregnant dogs, to senior dogs. I grew up with different types of dogs and my grandfather raced greyhounds. I currently am at home. I do have my granddaughter after school, who loves animals. She has a cat. Going for walks would also help me get some exercise. 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.
About: Hello, thank you for visiting my profile! Growing up, I’ve been surrounded by so many pets and I’ve loved each dearly. My husband and I have a 2 year old German shepherd named Apawllo who is a very goofy and affectionate guy who loves meeting new friends. We also have a 1 year old corgi x mini Australian shepherd named Arlo who is the biggest cuddle bug who also adores new friends. I have experience with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, ferrets, horses, cows, birds, and more. I feel comfortable handling any size animal and I believe that I would be a perfect fit. I live in a welcoming home on a quiet street in Innisfail, but am willing to commute to pick up/drop off your pets, as well as in home pet sitting. I would be more than glad to chat with you further and thank you again for reading my post. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to message me at anytime through Rover :) I look forward to hearing from you and soon meeting your fur babies! Talk soon. I have a baby boy who also adores animals. I am currently on maternity leave and do not plan on returning to work. That being said, I have plenty of time to spoil your pets with lots of love and play time. Prior to my leave, I was an infant nanny for the last seven years while completing my honours bachelor in childhood development. As mentioned, I am home from work for the foreseeable future and have lots of time on my hands to go on hikes and to play with your pets. I have 2 dogs of my own and am familiar with the day to day of pet care. I have two friendly dogs who can keep your pet(s) company while you’re away. We live on a quiet street and are close to trails and amenities that my dogs and I use often.
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.

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.

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 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.

I currently manage a retirement community in Red Deer, my husband is semi-retired. We have 2 dwelling on our acreage. My mother and uncle reside in the second dwelling and are around 24/7, because of this 0-2 hour potty breaks are able to be offered.

They are provided with at least one walk a day, and are often found outside with us while chores are being done, or a fire and the pit is being enjoyed. Our small breed dog joins me at work in the retirement community engages with 80+ residents there.

About: I've lived with dogs on and off for my whole life, and when I haven't lived with one I've always found a friend with a dog to "borrow" so that they can get out for a good hike, or just a sniffing walk if they aren't a trekker. I currently live with Mabel (dog) who is a rescue, so I have a good idea of some of the the emotional and/or behavioural struggles that some of our animal companions need help with. Thankfully Mabel settled in well and now lives happily with her (little) big brother, Oliver the cat. I raised two kittens from 2 days old at the and I also used to volunteer as a Cat Cuddler at the SPCA, so I have experience working with various ages, sociability levels, shapes and sizes of animals. I currently have full time availability! I tend to wake up early, so if you want me to pick up your dog (or for you to drop them off with me) early morning then that's no problem! I have a good sized, fenced garden that manages to keep Mabel (who is very active!) in. Dogs are supervised at all times when outside. I have a crate that can be used for anxious dogs who need their own space, or for those who are trained, if I need to leave the house while they're staying over (I will confirm this with you beforehand to ensure I'm meeting your pet's care level). Car-friendly dogs are welcome to come on any short excursions. Oliver (cat) lived with dogs before he came to live with me, so if your dog is good with cats then they could get along great! I do have a room fully set up for Oliver if he needs his own space and security, which I use while we're getting to know and trust new dogs, so your dog won't be confined to one room. Your dog's health, happiness and safety is important to me! The house is dog-proof for those who like to stick their nose where it shouldn't be! I want your pet to return to you tired, happy, feeling loved and looking forward to coming back to stay again!
“Steph did an amazing job walking my dog while she was staying at my mother‘s house in red deer! It happened to be a very cold week, but my dog enjoyed being out in her sweater and getting some fresh air. Steph was extremely flexible with doing two shorter walks a day and worked well with my mom to coordinate times. Highly recommend Steph!”

I am readily available for pet care services whenever I'm not traveling, ensuring your furry companions receive the attention and care they deserve. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate your needs with ease. For boarding, I carefully assess each case to ensure a comfortable stay for your pet. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I prioritize maintaining their familiar environment and routine. I am open to providing regular updates as requested to keep owners informed and reassured.
“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.”

“Denise was so easy to work with. Great communication, flexible, and reliable. My dog had such a great time there! Tons of toys for the dogs and a nice outdoor space. I will be sending my dog back there for sure!”
“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.”
“Kristin and her family were amazing to deal with and Luna had a great time. I appreciated the updates that were given throughout the stay. I loved that Luna felt comfortable enough to roam their house lol.”
“Carolyn is awesome! She had Jade for 2 nights and took very good care of her. Jade felt at ease and comfortable in her home the moment I dropped her off. Great communication the entire time. Would definitely recommend !”
“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!”
“Janelle had our dog Luna over night at her home and she was absolutely wonderful. Janelle sent pictures throughout the stay, and stayed in good contact. Luna is a shy girl, and she seemed to feel really comfortable with Janelle. We will definitely be contacting Janelle again to take care of our girl.”

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!
“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.”
“We were very happy in leaving our little LaceyMae in the care of Jenna. She showed genuine love and provided a safe environment that we felt confident that our little girl was in good hands. She also sent updates and pictures which we appreciated. Thank you, Jenna!”
“Aaren was great with our dog Echo, the dogs all got along great together and after a 4 night stay with Aaren I can tell Echo is missing her and her dogs already. Will definitely be bringing Echo back when ever we need dog care. :)”
“I booked with Taylor pretty last minute for boarding and she was so accommodating! She totally eased my mind sending me pictures and updates about my dog while I was gone. I can tell she cares for animals as if they were her own. 🥰 I highly highly recommend Taylor!”
“Highly recommend! Rachel was so welcoming and awesome with our puppies. We would 100% recommend and we will be back! Our dogs had a blast and so good to have a home away from home environment for them.”
“Jennifer was absolutely great with my little guy. Constantly kept me updated and sent pictures. Was very nice to talk to and gave Crosby tons of attention. I highly recommend her if your looking for a sitter for your best friend.”
