“Holli was wonderful, had great communication and provided a welcoming, loving home for my high energy golden retriever who provides zero personal space. Will definitely rebook!”
“Lis watched our yorkie Luna overnight last weekend. It was the first time we have left her anywhere other than the vet or groomers. From the first time we met her at our meet & greet, Lis made us feel welcome & comfortable. She answered all our questions and was very flexible about drop-off & pick-up times. Lis sent us pictures and texts to let us know how Luna was doing while we were away which we really appreciated. Because we knew Luna was well cared for we were able to relax & enjoy ourselves. Luna seems no worse for the experience & we would highly recommend Lis as a sitter.”

“Murray and Patricia where very professional and caring. They literally treated our dogs like family! We're very happy with everything and will be seeing them in the future.”
“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!”
“If you want a sitter who makes your pet feel like a King, and makes your pet so excited to go to their house he climbs into your arms to make sure you dont forget him in the morning, Ana is for you. I never worry about leaving my old mop of a dog with her. I can't say enough good things about her.”
“This was our dog’s first stay with any sitter other than our family, and he was so well taken care of! Robyn and her family gave him all the love, and he had fun playing with another dog friend during his stay. We loved getting the photo and video updates throughout the week, it eased our minds for our first time experience. Thanks Robyn & family!”
“Thank you Diane for the wonderful care and cuddles you gave to our dog Ruben. He definitely loved being with you if he was sitting on your lap! We appreciate you welcoming him into your home while we were away.”

“I can't thank Andrea enough for the incredible care she provided to my dog, Shadow. When Shadow fell sick under her watch, she went above and beyond to ensure his well-being. Andrea even cooked a bland meal for him, regularly updated me, and made me feel completely at ease. Her dedication and attentiveness were exceptional, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Andrea, for treating Shadow like your own!”
“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.”

“Shea was amazing with our kitty Romeo. He is a very high energy social boy, and Shea made sure he was in good company while we were away. She did everything I needed and more. I loved her detailed reports on what they had been up too, and the sweet pictures of our boy having fun made it easy to relax while away. Would definitely re-book. Thanks Shea!”
“Linda was great! Our two cats were happy guys when we returned home. Linda was a great communicator and sent lots of updates. I’d be happy to have her care for our pets in the future!”
“My husband chose Megan on a whim because he had a good feeling about her. He was right! (for once lol jk) Words can't express how much our worries were put at ease with how attentive she was. She went above and beyond. Our cat's nearly thirteen and he's going through some health issues. Megan treated him with as much care as her own-including a visit to the vet's office (twice!) We really appreciated her communication and thoughtfulness. There wasn't a day that went by that we worried about him, so we were able to enjoy our holiday. Returning home our place was even more tidy than when we left it! Rest assured Megan's your girl. We only hope Henry will accept us back now that we're home lol”
About: My wife and I have had four cats in our time, one of which had a litter of five furry kittens. Spending quality time with your furry felines and tending to the litter box, all apart of my care.
“Celeste was excellent! Our cats were happy and well cared for. She sent lots of photo updates and communication was great. We would be happy to have her look after our pets again.”
“Jenna really went above and beyond when caring for my cat. I got frequent pictures, updates on play times and activities they did throughout the day, when leaving for my trip I was a little worried about my cats appetite but she’s been eating really well since she got home. Jenna truly is first class and I will be recommending her to everyone who may need support in caring for their pets. Thank you Jenna, amazing work. 10/10”
“Heather was excellent! She came for a meet & greet and was able to follow all care instructions well. She sent me photos and an update, and they seemed happy! I also appreciate her flexibility in coming to care for them on short notice. Thanks so much!”
“This is the 4th time Katherine has looked after our cat while we are away and, as usual, she was very attentive and always goes above and beyond with our kitty. She always gives detailed updates and many pictures. She does more than she is asked even around our house and I always know that our cat is in good hands every time we are away!”
“I was thrilled to have Joy stay overnight cat-sitting Penny. She reached out daily with photos and comments about how Penny was doing which really eased my mind while I was away. I could tell Joy did a fabulous job as Penny was happy and content when I returned home and the house was clean and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Joy and will definitely been booking her again!”

I especially appreciated recieving the thorough notes on how the visit went, how long she stayed to keep the kitties company, and all the pictures of our kitties!! Thank you Alana!! We hope to use you again in the future!!”
About: I’ve cared for pets for most of my life and have hands-on experience with both dogs and cats of all ages. My first dog, a German Shepherd/Collie mix, was part of my family from the time I was 3 years old until she passed away at 15, giving me experience caring for a dog throughout every stage of her life. Today, I care for two large mixed breed dogs, one Golden Retriever/Husky mix and a Black Lab mix, ages 8 and 7 as well as having experience with several family cats over the years. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, playtime, bathing, brushing, nail trimming, cleaning up after pets, and providing lots of affection and attention. I’m comfortable caring for larger breeds and understand that every pet has their own personality, energy level, and routine. I believe consistency is important, so I always do my best to follow each owner’s instructions to help their pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply having somebody nearby to keep them company, I’ll make sure they receive the care, patience, and attention they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to each pet I care for. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I make sure every pet receives the attention and care they need. I'm happy to work with each owner's routine to help keep their pet comfortable and maintain consistency while they're away. I understand how important it is for pets to stick to familiar schedules, and I'll do my best to follow their usual routine as closely as possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I take the time to follow your instructions carefully to help them feel secure and comfortable while you're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both the pets and the home with the same respect I would my own. I'll keep food, water, walks, medications (if needed), and playtime on schedule, and I'll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure before taking pets outside. I'm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet feels cared for until you return home.
“I have never left my boys with anyone other than family & friends, but the second I met Saoirse I had no worries at all. She was absolutely amazing and I know my boys will miss her. I loved getting picture updates everyday and her comments each day were very informative and hilarious to read. It was so nice to have someone who truly loved animals, and after meeting them she loved them immediately like her own. I won’t be booking with anyone other than her from this point forward, she was amazing and I could go on and on forever praising her. Thank you for giving me peace of mind knowing that my boys were cared for and given lots of pets and love!”
“Sarah has been watching my pup for a few days now and she has been so kind. She repeats my instructions to me in detail so she understands exactly how to care for my pup. We are hoping to be able to keep booking her for the next few months!”

“Our pup had a great time with Olya and her family. Olya took the time to have a meet and greet prior to the daycare day and walked me through everything and to have our pup meet her two dogs. This helped me feel at ease with Ollie staying at a new place. We got a lot of pics/vids to update us on their day. I’m sure Ollie is excited for his next visit!”
“Riley had so much fun! Vanessa took her on walks and she got to play with her daughters. This was very last minute so I was really happy that Riley ended up spending the day with such a great family!”
“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.”
“Honestly the best sitter, my Willows first time going to a sitter and Marie is always there and gives you updates, makes sure your dog gets loved, I couldn’t be more happier with her as the sitter, I’m glad my pup had a wonderful time😊”
“Andrea and her family create such a welcoming environment for my puppy and all the dogs that stay with them. I can tell by how much my dog loves going there each week and by the lovely pictures and messages I receive from each stay that Andrea and Bernal truly love each critter they care for. Would recommend!!”
“As I was frantically searching for a dog-sitter with little to no notice, Jeremy reached out to me during my emergency late at night and was more than happy to help me in my time of need anticipating an early morning drop-off. He and his wife were very accommodating to my situation and the needs of my Scout and were able to give me peace of mind throughout the day with various updates and such wonderful pictures and videos. I was immediately comfortable with Jeremy as soon as I met him and knew my pet was in great hands which of course was further confirmed when I picked up Scout at the end of the day and met his wife as well who also had a huge part in Scout's day. I could tell Scout was very happy to be with them both and that he got lots of attention and playtime. I immediately booked a second day for them to help myself get caught up and would definitely recommend Jeremy's home to anybody looking for an amazing pet-sitter!”
“My puppy had a great day and was not anxious at all. I also noticed that Zac’s nails was clipped, one of the few things we are struggling as owners to complete and Joanne did it! So happy for that. Thank you for caring for Zac, greatly appreciate that.”
“Jazlynn, Quenton & Lily 🐶 have been PHENOMENAL pup sitters for my baby girl Georgia. Jazlynn & Quenton were respectful and accommodating to my desire for not one but two introductions to their home before Georgia started going for day care on her own. Georgia has spent numerous days with them while I worked day shifts and she has spent a whole week in their home while I travelled out of province. Jazlynn and Quenton are quick to send pictures of their day with Georgia and tell me if anything is out of the ordinary (eating habits, itching, etc.) I can’t say enough great things about this family. I will continue to book with them. Thank you Jazlynn, Quenton, and Lily! 🐶🩷”
“My dog really enjoyed his time with Heather. She made sure Toby was looked after and even made some treats for him. My dog is a handful but she was patient and very attentive. It was already a hit for my dog and I am glad it was a successful meet and greet experience.”
About: Our family has looked after pets for friends and family for many years! We pride ourselves on being reliable, engaging and caring for your pet! We are happy to do anything necessary to look after your fur baby so that you have peace of mind while they are in our care. We do currently have our own puppy, she is a mini ausiedoodle. She is completely house trained, crate trained and she has excellent manners. Our dog also loves to play with other dogs. Dogs we care for must be ok with our dog, a meet and greet is required. We only look after a maximum of 2 other pets in addition to ours, occasionally we would take up to 4, this is case by case. I work full time from home, I walk my dog 2 times a day, we both love getting outside. I often visit the Grand Trunk Dog Park as well. We are an active family, however the pets we look after wouldn't be home alone on the weekends longer than 1-2 hours, if at all. We are very flexible, if you have special needs, let me know. We have a completely fenced yard which is cleaned on a daily basis. It is a large yard with lots of areas for sniffing and playing. In our home, we are flexible to the needs of your pet, we can manage crate training or can look after a pup who does not go into a crate. Our house is completely puppy proofed!
About: I’ve always been an animal lover. There are few times in my life where I’ve not been caring for animals. I find myself more comfortable with animals than people. I’m comfortable with all ages and sizes. I work from home so I’m always available to take care of your fur baby. I’m comfortable bathing, trimming nails and administering medication to your pet. We moved to the St. Albert area September 2025. After staying with family these last few months, we have finally found our own home. We are now settled in Erin Ridge North. Looking forward to a meet and greet! I work from home so I’m always available for your fur baby. Meet and greets are required prior to acceptance to ensure compatibility with my dog. I understand that having someone else care for your fur baby is stressful for both the pet and the pet parent. I do everything in my power to maintain a safe environment for all animals in my care.
“Amazing couple to have chosen to take care of my dog. I’ve never left him with strangers before so I was a little nervous, but I couldn’t have asked for better people. They kept me updated all day with texts, pictures, videos. They took him in their yard to play, out for walks, and treated him like their own. Wonderful people to trust with your furbabies”
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.
“Eunika was amazing with Dottie. Eunika was very communicative and sent photos/videos during the day so I was kept up to date. I was able to enjoy my visit in Edmonton with my parents knowing that Dottie was in good hands. I will definitely use her again when I am in Edmonton again.”
“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.”
About: I love pets, and ever since I got one of my own I've done everything to research how to give the best care to them. I don't have any of my fur babies anymore so I can direct all my attention to yours! I work from home! So if you need me to watch the pets or do work around the house - I'm your girl! We can discuss the best possible care for you and your pet ✨️ ❤️ I also live in a house that can accommodate dogs. I have a backyard and I'm always home to give your fur babies love, attention and belly rubs.
“Rufana was amazing with Dante! It was our first time with her and I really appreciate all her patience with our dog and us, she was available right away that day and saved our trip to Sylvan Lake. Thanks Rufana!”

“Samantha is fantastic. I have a very nervous dog and Samantha has taken her time to let my dog get comfortable with her and work with me to keep things positive for my pup. Highly recommend Samantha”
“Maria was great! Millie took to her right away and I have no doubt they will be fast friends. She was kind, punctual and professional. I would recommend her to anyone needing a Rover!”
“Sarah has been so great handling our 3 big dogs and accommodating last minute requests. It’s such a relief having someone trustworthy to get our dogs out of the house on busy days.”
“Dylan C was excellent , my dogs liked Dylan when they had a meet and greet in the afternoon. On the 3rd booking day we were home early and Dylan came over and briskly walked Harley anyway, even though we were home. We appreciated that because we were tired from the long drive we had. Thank You Dylan, when we need to book a dog walker again we will be hiring Dylan.”
About: Ive been taking care of dogs my whole life. Ive trained my own dogs. They are now my emotional support. I love training as well I can be flexible with my schedule. Mostly free on the evenings and weekends. I have plenty of time to give love to any dogs ❤️ I have a fenced yard, small dog pool for hot summer and a 3 mins walk from the dog park. Safe and quiet neighborhood ❤️
“Emily is an awesome dog walker! I fully trust her to pick up Zeus and drop him back home safe and sound while I'm at work. When I get home , Zeus is happy and tired, yay!!”
“We have been looking for a "baby" sitter for a while now, interviewed a couple off of Rovee app, but as SOON as Alana walked in, we both knew she was it. She was so chill, the dogs didn't bark when she came in. She spent over an hour with us, having coffee and getting to know the dogs at our meet n' greet. We primarily reached out to her to dog sit for us to go away. To be sure it was a good fit, I booked a couple of drop in visits and the dogs happily greeted her and went with her on a walk. Both of our dogs have dog aggression, one because of fear and one because of play. She took pictures the whole way through and handled them so well, which was really awesome. Alana is our girl!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life from kittens and puppies to senior cats and senior dogs. I currently even have my own 3 year old German shepherd and trained him myself. I’m currently only working part time during the week and available all day on weekends so have plenty of time to care for your pets! I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet while caring for them in their own home. I follow all routines carefully, keep spaces clean and secure, give regular updates, and make sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: Dogs in my home are like family so if you trust me with your best friend I promise to offer your dog genuine love and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs - big and small. Your dog will get plenty of exercise and personalized attention in a loving, safe, happy environment. I will respect and adhere to all specific dietary and any other need of your dog. I like to walk and be outdoors with animals. I registered with Rover in 2024 but didn't accept dog sitting duties at the time due to work commitments. I am now retired so my schedule is fairly flexible and I can typically adapt to meet your needs. I have a fenced backyard, plenty of nearby walking trails, and a dog park. Pets are encouraged to feel at home and sit on the furniture with a big cozy blanket. I understand every dog has different needs so I'll listen carefully about your dog's needs to help you and your pet feel comfortable. I'll be happy to connect with you digitally as required.
About: Hello, I’m Ren! I’ve had a soft spot for animals since I was little, and I absolutely love taking care of them! I have personally owned 4 large breed dogs, 3 small breed dogs, and 6 cats (at once!). I’ve had experience with senior animals, puppies/kittens, diabetic animals, and animals with epilepsy. I am fully comfortable administering injectable and oral medications! I believe animals are one of life’s greatest treasures, and I’m delighted to meet new furry friends! Please read below for important details; For over-night house sitting I need; -bed/couch to sleep on (guest room preferred) -bedding & pillows -dishes (bowl, plate, etc) -access to a shower (I will bring my own hygiene supplies) -access to a fridge (I will supply my own food) -access to cooking appliances (kettle, toaster, microwave, oven/air-fryer) -basic cleaning supplies (dish soap, sponge, paper towel, broom, mop, etc) *I do not offer 24/7 care. I need to be able to leave the home for at least 5 hours a day. I need to sleep for 8-9 hours a night. *Any indoor cameras must be disclosed beforehand. I require there be no cameras in bathrooms or the room I will be occupying. I’m currently out of school and have a lot of free time on my hands! What better way to fill the week then spending time with dogs & cats😸 I treat animals with respect, love, and proper care. Any pet I watch will be treated with lots of affection and enthusiasm! I enjoy going for walks greatly and find it more enjoyable when I have a pal to go with.
About: I’ve had my best friend, Ash, since I was 10. Almost 12, he’s as lively as ever! I had also adopted Dart last year, a 10 year old pointer with anxiety - I have had the privilege of watching him grow and bloom into his instincts and training! I’ve also worked professionally with dogs for over two years and specifically would be tasked to handle dogs with special needs, whether that be behavioural or medical. I can connect with dogs and read them incredibly easy. I’m very patient as well and have no fear when dealing with less trusting or “feistier” dogs. I also understand how busy life can get, especially when unexpected hurdles come your way. I am especially offering services for pet parents who are looking for super last minute help. I’m more than happy to share a more specific version of my availability if you think you’ll need last minute care in the near future. I also especially love senior dogs and can manage their specific health and behavioural needs with ease. :) Hi! I’m a student with two pups of my own. I would love to help others struggling with busy schedules give their pups the best life they deserve! Here are the times I'm UNavailable during the week starting September 2026: Dog Walking or Drop-in: - Unavailable Monday and Friday Evenings - Unavailable MWF from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. - Unavailable TH from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. * I may be able to compromise and make an exception if you need my services during these hours OR if you live near Lewis Estates/University of Alberta campus, but nothing super long term until the new year. Other than the times listed above, I have pretty open availability but would be best for routine drop-ins or walking in the mornings, early evenings, and weekends. If you need me there during full work hours, please still reach out and explain your situation - I may be able to accommodate and I'm more than willing to talk about if our schedules work! I am also more than okay staying the night as long as I'm okay to pop in and out during the day to run errands as well! I work around the schedule of my two dogs, a couple of university classes and occasional 4-hour shifts at tutoring centre. I’d be great for last-minute bookings, most especially for dog walking, overnights, and drop-ins. :) ** I will accept short-term boarding under certain circumstances (typically if you’re experiencing an emergencies and need short term pet care ASAP). This is not preferred for me as I have a full house of dogs, hence the pricing. I’m very respectful of others spaces and will be able to recognize and learn the routines of your pup pretty quick! Special instructions are no stranger to me, so ask away!! I want to replicate their regular routine as much as possible to cause the least amount of stress. :) I value and put the time into understanding your pets boundaries and have no qualms with creating a safe, comforting environment through soft tones, words, and actions, and most importantly: patience.
About: I have grown up with large dogs my entire life and I have experienced with dogs as young as a few months old to seniors. I’m looking to walk and look after dogs in the Dovercourt area. I am a college student therefore my schedule is flexible and I am available during the day and weekends. At home I give my dog lots of love and attention and take him on at least two walks a day and provide whatever else he needs and requires.
“We really enjoyed having Marissa take care of our 2 dogs. Marissa did well navigating our hyper puppy and adapted to her needs! Marissa is trust worthy and we would book again”
About: While I haven’t had my own dog. I have taken care of my fathers dogs and my mother in laws. I have administered needles for a diabetic senior dog as well. I am a stay at home mom currently and have two children in school. I can stop by your house right after their drop off. Can go visit your animals during the evening as well. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priority. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience and attentiveness I would want for my own animals. I have experience administering medications and injections (for diabetic pets) I am very comfortable following medical and feeding instructions.
“Chelsea was great! She was very quick to respond and her communication while I was away was fantastic. I knew Miles was well taken care of with her. She’s very professional and I will continue to use her services!”

“Holli was wonderful, had great communication and provided a welcoming, loving home for my high energy golden retriever who provides zero personal space. Will definitely rebook!”
“Lis watched our yorkie Luna overnight last weekend. It was the first time we have left her anywhere other than the vet or groomers. From the first time we met her at our meet & greet, Lis made us feel welcome & comfortable. She answered all our questions and was very flexible about drop-off & pick-up times. Lis sent us pictures and texts to let us know how Luna was doing while we were away which we really appreciated. Because we knew Luna was well cared for we were able to relax & enjoy ourselves. Luna seems no worse for the experience & we would highly recommend Lis as a sitter.”

Robyn and her family gave him all the love, and he had fun playing with another dog friend during his stay. We loved getting the photo and video updates throughout the week, it eased our minds for our first time experience. Thanks Robyn & family!”
“I can't thank Andrea enough for the incredible care she provided to my dog, Shadow. When Shadow fell sick under her watch, she went above and beyond to ensure his well-being. Andrea even cooked a bland meal for him, regularly updated me, and made me feel completely at ease. Her dedication and attentiveness were exceptional, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Andrea, for treating Shadow like your own!”
“I definitely recommend this household and would book again with them anytime. My dog had never been boarded with anyone before and he is an older guy, stuck to his routine. Shalet has a calm, positive energy that helped him settle in. Following their dogs around also helped my dog come out of his shell and he ended up being pretty well entertained. I also appreciated the daily updates during the 10-day stay.”
“Jill exceed all my expectations and took care of Hudson The Great amazingly for me. She had no issues with his special diet and medications. Jill kept me up to date on their activities and sent plenty of pictures. Hudson the Great loved her and her energy and her home was immaculately clean. I 100% recommend Jill and will be booking again with her.”
“Sherrie and her family were amazing with our pups. We could sense how comfortable our pups were with them and it was evident how well cared for and loved our pups were, while in their care. During pickup, after their initial excitement of seeing us, our younger pup tried to follow Sherrie back into her home as she went in to get their bag. This is a glowing endorsement for us as he normally sticks to is like glue! Sherrie also provided daily text and/or photo updates which put our minds at ease. This was our first Rover booking and we were unsure of what to expect, but seeing our pups looking so relaxed and happy confirmed that we had found a perfect home/pet sitting family for our pups. We have already booked our second stay with Sherrie and we hope that we she will always be available when we need to book a stay on Rover.”
“I don’t think there’s enough words to describe how wonderful and caring this family is. From the very beginning, they went above and beyond by meeting with us the day after we booked so that our dog could get to know them and feel comfortable before his stay. Throughout his time with them, they treated him like he was part of their family. He enjoyed multiple walks every day, plenty of attention, and so much love and affection. It was clear from the updates and photos that he was happy, relaxed, and well taken care off. Their kindness, communication, and genuine love for animals truly shines through. We came home to a happy, well-loved dog. You’re an incredible family! 🐶❤️”
“We left our Golden Retriever with Joanne for a day while we had a family event. He is just shy of 6 months old and it was his first time staying with anyone else. It was also his first time around another dog and it went great! Joanne seems very experienced with dogs and we would definitely leave our guy with her again.”
“Thank you Michelle for taking such good care of our pup Rylee. It was clear from the start that she was comfortable with you and your family and it was wonderful to go away and know that our pup was safe and well cared for. We will book again I am sure!”
About: We know firsthand that dogs are family. We cared for our beloved dog for 11 years through two knee surgeries and several other procedures due to genetic health issues, giving her the best care every step of the way. That experience taught us patience, responsibility, and how to recognize when a dog needs extra attention. We provide a calm, loving home, daily walks, plenty of affection, and will follow your dog's routine exactly as you request. We treat every dog like one of our own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. We both work full-time Monday to Friday, so we're best suited for dogs that are comfortable being home alone for up to 8 hours during the workday. Every dog gets a morning walk before we leave, an evening walk when we're home, and lots of love and attention afterward. On weekends we're home most of the day, so your dog will have plenty of companionship, playtime, and cuddles. Your dog's safety and comfort are our top priorities. We'll follow your dog's feeding schedule, medication routine, exercise needs, and any special instructions exactly as requested. We treat every dog like a member of our family and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. We also volunteer with an incredible pet rescue in Edmonton dog sitting for fosters while they wait for their forever home and absolutely love everything about it. All dogs we watch will 100% be treated like royalty 💜 We also have a toy box full of new toys where your incredible pet gets to bring home their favorite toy after their stay 🥰
“Sonja and her family are my first choice to watch my pup when I'm away. I was overseas for two weeks and due to the time changes, mistakenly booked my pickup a day before I actually arrived home - a mistake I discovered on the day I was scheduled for pickup, while I was in-transit in the UK! Sonja was wonderful and able to accommodate my dog for the extra night on short notice. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to board their dog.”
“Elizabeth and her family took wonderful care of my two year old male shepherd cross. He got in lots of playtime with her kids and other dogs and I got lots of pictures. He came home happy and tired from his adventure. I would absolutely recommend her!”
