We were updated with many pictures every day and a description of all the that happened throughout the day. I could tell Maple was very happy there!

About: Hello! My name is Sara! I’ve had pets my entire life and enjoy caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for cats and dogs of different sizes and breeds, including those with extra needs such as medications. I have one dog of my own named Willow, she is a black lab mix with a lot of energy. While I'm not able to host other dogs at my place, I'm more than happy to take care of your pets in the comfort of their own home. I have a regular day to day job that has me out of the house for 8 - 9 hours a day Monday through Friday. What care routine do you follow in your home? The routine you have set is what will be followed while I'm caring for your pets.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats throughout my life. I have owned and raised Bichon shih Tzu and German short haired pointers that were field trained. I am able to walk your dog/ cat or come for playdates on Tuesday's, Thursday's and Friday's, mornings or afternoons till 4pm. Monday and Wednesday I watch my grandkids. I would like to do a meet and greet with you and your pet before hand. I will send photos and updates to you so you feel comfortable. I abide by leash laws and keep your pet safe. I respect your privacy and ensure your home is secure when I pick up and drop off.
About: I have had animals in my home since I was 7 years old. I have had a variety of different animals, and along the way they have all left an imprint on my heart in there own way and have taught me many lessons. I currently live on a farm, and have many animals and experience with many different types of animals. I have taken two training courses, and now train all our own animals. I have also fostered in Calgary for 8 years before moving to the farm. I have specialized in rehabilitation, shy, abused, fearful, and neglected animals. I give these animals grace, a loving, soft and caring place to be able to find forever homes, and in some cases my home was home. I have had seniors, wounded, babies, and sick animals in my home. We have also had new births and babies on the farm. I am truly meant to be taking care of animals, definitely my calling. Now that my kids are grown I left the school system, and I am getting back to what I love. This along with my farm are my commitments. I can devote all the time needed to care for your fur family as required. I have a fully fenced 2 acre area for dogs to play. I do have a heated shop, and outdoor run available, that always are accessable. I have rooms in my home that when we take in dogs it's designated their space. Free roam is all day when home. But unless I need to leave, for the safety of your animals, a round wire area is designated for your pet. Will also depend on frequency and relationship built, these dynamics could change over time.
About: I’ve been a loving dog dad for a few years now and an animal lover my whole life. We’ve had puppies to older dogs in our care. Able to handle them with lots of love and care while having loads of fun with them. I am currently working part time job and have lot of free time in the evenings/weekends. I can watch your dog overnight and can take them for walks as well. All my friends and families have dogs and the we all enjoy each others company. I keep my dog in crate throughout the night and take him for regular walks in the evenings/weekends. I can adjust my skill set based on what is required/liked by the dog in that moment. I can understand that pets can get nervous and need some time to adjust and that’s where they find me most comfortable.
About: Hey! I’m Marisa, I have a deep love and passion for all animals. I rescued my baby boy Benny from a kill shelter in 2016. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats as well as have work and volunteer experience at pet stores and the human society. I understand pet needs and will provide attentive care to your fur babies.
“Andrea was great, it was so reassuring to have someone who understands the anxiety that comes with leaving pets at home. My kitties were in great hands and I came home to happy healthy kitties which is always a great feeling. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Brianna was great with our cats! Our one female cat is particularly shy and I recieved photos of her happy face all week! Thank you very much to Brianna and her great love of animals and caring for others pets”
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: I’ve had plenty of barn cats growing up, and I loved taking responsibility for my fur babies. My sweet girl, in my picture is my pride and joy. You can’t ever spoil a cat. She can be spicy, but it’s been a learning experience curve and much needed.
About: I have had pets since I was young, and I have always been responsible for taking care of those animals, whether it’s walking them, cleaning up after them, bathing them, training them, and overall just making sure the animals are living in a very high-quality environment. I have both a cat and a dogs. My dog is a bit larger, so I am knowledgeable on how to properly take care of a larger dog. I have also taken care of small dogs that my family and friends have had. Overall, I find I get along great with any animal! Respecting their boundaries is very important to me! I just finished my first year of university and I am working over the summer! I work most days but with a flexible schedule that allows me to check on your pets throughout the day! In my home my dog is outside and inside, but our cat stays inside. I value their safety, and although my dog is outside sometimes, I check on them frequently and give them constant attention to ensure that they are okay. In a clients home, I will follow their guidelines on whether or not the pets are indoors or outdoors, and I will give frequent attention to maintain their safety and well-being.
“Gabriella was great - prompt response when I sent in a cat sitting request She looked after my pet (cat) just over a week, and all went well She even shoveled the snow on the driveway!”
About: I’ve helped run a home-based cat shelter and volunteered at a shelter in Canada, so I’m used to all kinds of cats—shy, sassy, senior, or extra needy. I’m comfortable with all medical care, including pills, injections, and special-needs routines. I’m patient, gentle, and happy to take the time to earn trust, keep litter boxes truly clean, and make sure every cat feels safe, calm, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾
“Kateryna is a wonderful! Kateryna went above and beyond in taking care of my cat while I was away. From the moment I met her, I could tell she was passionate about animals. She followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my cat's routine was maintained. Kateryna provided regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing my furry friend was in good hands. I returned home to a happy and well-cared-for cat. I highly recommend Kateryna to anyone in need of a reliable and caring cat sitter. Thank you for your outstanding service!!!”
“Great experience with Felix and Rachel, such a personalized approach! Came back to happy, fed and clean fur babies. Rachel has been very responsive and explained all the details. Thank you!!”

“I’m super Glad that I found Amanda for taking care of my dogs. She was nice enough to accommodate my last minute booking and provided the best care for my dogs. Everyone in her family was kind and welcoming toward my dogs. I could tell as my dogs got super excited to go to her place every morning and came home happy and tired. Definitely she is going to be my go to dog sitter in future. I would highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter.”
“I have used Lynnet and Romeo for doggy daycare as well as overnight boarding. My puppy Finn has become a regular at Lynnet and Romeo’s and is so excited every time I drop him off. He’s usually very nervous to go somewhere without me so this says a lot! He comes home happy and tuckered at the end of his weekly visit!”
“Great communication on the app, Frederique sent a photo midday of my happy furbaby, and she was super friendly in person. Because it was rural and we aren’t familiar with the area, she gave us directions that were easy to follow. She has 2 larger dogs, a lab cross and a husky, that are super sweet & friendly, too. My dog got along well with them and they were unbothered by his socializing and getting to know the place.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Whitney!! I was in a bind with my 4 month old puppy, Harvey. My work schedule was changed abruptly and Whitney was able to accommodate my booking request very promptly. She was so friendly and helpful with all my questions. Whitney and her family are so welcoming and I can tell that Harvey loves going there for doggy daycare! He gets excited in the morning as soon as he sees Whitney. Thank you, Whitney and family, for providing such a high level of care to our pup and being so wonderful! We always feel safe dropping Harvey off with you!!”
“Xi truly is the best! She has an amazing space for the animals both in and outside, she consistently sends photos of my boy having the MOST fun and he always comes home tired after a long day of playing hard with his friends. We had recently switched sitters/daycare as his previous sitter had to move, although Loki is a great boy I was nervous for him being anxious by new environments/people. He has went for the day, a couple hours and spent the night. Xi does it all. She always gives the best updates during the day via the app as well as touches base in person for pick-up. I would recommend Xi to anybody with a fur-baby. Truly a pleasure working with her.”
“Christine treats Ellie like family, she always has a blast with all her doggie pals there and comes home ready for a nap! Great communication, lots of picture/video updates throughout the day. Thanks Christine!!”

“Was a little nervous to leave my guy with a new sitter but Carol went above and beyond! She made sure she asked if a specific kind of treats was okay, sent me picture of my guy and was so personable from the start! She’s such a sweet lady to deal with. My guy already can’t wait till the next time he spends time with her”
“Poppy had fun at the farm and was very well looked after! Audrianna sent us regular updates and some pictures. Poppy was able to play with Gypsy and another dog. You can tell immediately that Audrianna really cares about animals. Highly recommend her!”
About: I've been surrounded by pets my entire life, growing up in a home filled with furry companions. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I understand how much love and attention they need. Today, I share my home with a very cute Shih Tzu and a loving cat, so I know firsthand the importance of patience, routine, and lots of affection. Whether it’s caring for energetic puppies, providing comfort to senior pets, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and happy while you're away, I treat every animal like they’re my own! My husband and I bothe work from home so your pet will always have company! We have a flexible schedule, pot breaks are no problem for us. Every pet has their own personality, quirks, and favorite routines—just like us! My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether it's belly rubs for a playful pup, quiet companionship for a shy dog, or extra patience with a senior pet, I adapt to their needs. I take the time to understand their habits, favorite toys, and even the little things—like how they like their treats or their favorite nap spot. Your pet won’t just be cared for—they’ll feel at home.

“We recently left our dog Chiki at daycare with Ashima, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She took care of Chiki with so much love, attention, and care — exactly the way we would at home. 🐶❤️ What really stood out was how thoughtful and reassuring she was throughout the stay. She kept sending us lots of pictures and updates, which made us feel so comfortable and happy knowing Chiki was having such a great time. It’s clear that Ashima genuinely cares for the dogs she looks after, and Chiki absolutely loved being there. We’re so grateful for the amazing care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable for their pet!”

About: Growing up with 3 large dogs and 1-2 cats at any given time, I will be excellent with your fur babies. I am very reliable, and excited to meet your pets! I currently have a cat who is a two year old brown tabby. She has enough energy for the entire household and loves running around the house playing with whatever she can find. I love sports, specifically hockey, and love to be active whether that be a run or rollerblade by myself! I also enjoy doing puzzles, but it is tricky when my cat knocks over all of the pieces onto the floor. I am full of love and here for all your pet-care needs :) I’m currently working full time from home but am affording the flexibility to check on your pets during the day most times! Let me know how I can best care for your pet :) I love creating an environment where the animal is stress-free and feels loved and at home. Show me your routine and help me be a seamless shoe-in during your absence!
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats throughout my life. I have owned and raised Bichon shih Tzu and German short haired pointers that were field trained. I am able to walk your dog/ cat or come for playdates on Tuesday's, Thursday's and Friday's, mornings or afternoons till 4pm. Monday and Wednesday I watch my grandkids. I would like to do a meet and greet with you and your pet before hand. I will send photos and updates to you so you feel comfortable. I abide by leash laws and keep your pet safe. I respect your privacy and ensure your home is secure when I pick up and drop off.
About: I’ve had 5 dogs in my household since I was born. I trained 2 out of the five as I got older. I have pet sitted before and I have an absolute love for dogs. Currently we have adopted a puppy from fostering, we absolutely love her! We don’t know the breed or how big she will get but she’s been an absolute delight in our household! I always enjoy a good walk myself or a visit to a family friendly park with other dogs. Currently working on dog parks with my own puppy at home! Over the summer months would like to walk more dogs as my job is currently slow. I love the outdoors so I definitely enjoy taking my puppy for walks and to parks with nice scenic views. We enjoy visiting other dogs for play time for socialization! I enjoy playing with toys with our puppy, chasing a ball outside or teaching her how to be without a leash. We always use treats to learn new skills!
About: Ever since I was a baby I’ve spent my life around animals from small to large, domestic to farm. I have always had a deep compassion for animals. As a child I always wanted to be around and with animals wanting to grow up working with them in any way. I have 5 years of experience working on a dairy farm and have worked at a doggy daycare. In 2023 I got my first puppy as an adult. Since then I have rescued 1, and had 2 rehomed to me as well. Animals are already a huge part of my everyday life, so dog walking fits very naturally into my routine. I have a flexible schedule with availability every other week from 4:30pm–10:00pm, and on alternating weeks from 7:00am–10:00pm. I enjoy getting out for walks, spending time with dogs, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away or busy. I always try to make pets feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible by sticking to their normal routines, giving them lots of attention, and making sure they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I understand how important trust, patience, and consistency are when caring for someone else’s pet.
About: I lived with a friend on a hobby farm. She showed me the ropes. I learned how to take care of all animals big and small. I am willing and able to assist in medicine administration. I have tons of free time that I’d love to dedicate to ensuring your furry friend has their needs through the day and even when you’re on vacation I work from home, starting up my own business but I have free availability pretty much all day. I hardly ever leave the province and can dedicate as much time needed with your fur babies as you need! I won’t have pets in my home as I have a cat myself, but I will ensure I know where all food, treats, toys and everything else they require before you leave. I will ask for an emergency response plan in the event I need to get ahold of you asap. I also have my own reliable transportation and will ask for the vet you use in dire emergencies. I will also supervise play time as I know how quick everything can go sideways. I also am very clean, if there’s a mess from your pet, it’ll be cleaned. And I have no problem cleaning litter boxes as well.
About: I have a very high tolerance and patience with all sizes and breeds. I am okay with cats as well. I’ve trained a couple of my friends animals a few times. And I love just getting out for exercise so would love to look after your fur companion to give him/her some exercise as well :) I was the kid who took in all the animals who were homeless. I am very energetic as well so if you have a very high energy dog don’t you worry!! I’m a student who is looking to get out more, make a bit of pocket money, and have a little fur companion to hang out with during the day. I can't wait to meet your fur babies and companions. I work throughout the week from 9-2pm and sometimes off earlier it depends! I also have a vehicle to commute to your pet. Weekends are open and evenings! If I’m walking your pup I have had clients leave their treats and leash in the area that is visible but it is whatever you are comfortable with, I am very flexible!
“Vahista was awesome with our two big girls who are not the easiest to handle! My girls love her and they are well taken care of on their weekend walks!! Can’t wait to keep this relationship going with the girls and Vahista🤗💛”

“Tiana was amazing! She came over to meet us previously before we booked with her and her energy was so calmed and grounded. I immediately knew she would take good care of our pups for us while she is either walking them or house sitting. I would highly recommend her!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with a poodle and now share my life with my beautiful Brittany Spaniel, so I truly understand how much our dogs mean to us—they’re family. I treat every dog in my care like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I pay close attention to their personality and needs so they have a happy, stress-free experience. Being a true dog person means I know how important trust is, and my goal is always to care for your dog as if they were my own. At the moment I have a very flexible schedule while I look for a more permanent job, which makes pet care a great fit for my routine. I’m newly pregnant and already spend a lot of my time with my own dog, so caring for other dogs throughout the day feels very natural to me. Because I have my own Brittany Spaniel, I already have a daily routine of walks, feeding times, and making sure dogs get plenty of attention and exercise. I just need to make sure I’m home in the evenings for my dog’s dinner, but I’m very open to working out schedules that work well for everyone. I love the idea of spending my days with dogs and making sure they feel cared for, happy, and safe. At the moment I’m offering pet care in clients’ homes, as I’m not able to host other animals in my home right now. I’m happy to come to your home to care for your pet so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. When I care for pets, I focus on making sure they feel safe, loved, and well looked after. This includes walks, playtime, enrichment, feeding, and of course lots of cuddles and attention. I also make sure to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed while you’re away. My goal is always to treat your pet like family and give them the same love and care I give my own dog. P.s will be moving soon so having dogs in my house will change.
“Gabriella saved my day! I needed a last minute walk done and she accepted. Gunner was very happy and content when I got home and Gabrielle was wonderful, sending pictures and great communication.”
“I am so grateful Felix & Rachel helped me out last minute when I was stuck for a dog walker! They showed up when I needed and walked my Louie, took photos and I would absolutely use them again- thanks so much guys!”
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine love for animals and my firsthand experience as both a pet owner and pet sitter. As a previous pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and caring to look after your pets. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, administering basic care, providing companionship, and maintaining their routines to help them feel comfortable while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their personality, needs, and preferences. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their furry family members are happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. As a rotational worker, I have two weeks off at a time, which gives me the flexibility and availability to dedicate quality time to caring for pets. During my time off, I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals through dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits. Having been a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of maintaining consistent feeding, exercise, play, and companionship routines to keep pets happy and comfortable. I tailor my care to each pet's needs and the service being provided. For dog walking, I ensure pets get safe exercise, fresh water, and plenty of attention. For drop-in visits, I follow the owner's instructions for feeding, medication (if required), litter box cleaning, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. For pet sitting in a client's home, I maintain the pet's normal routine as closely as possible to reduce stress, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and lots of affection. As a former pet owner and experienced dog and cat sitter, I understand the importance of reliability, patience, and keeping owners updated on their pet's well-being.
About: I have owned and cared for dogs and cats in my life for over 50 years and have an amazing ability for having them relate to me. I am only working a full day on Friday's and my husband works out of a home office so I am very flexible regarding availability. I live on an acreage with a fenced yard and two friendly Maltese dogs and a dog friendly cat named Nigel. Dogs names are Maggie and Monty.
About: I currently work from home in marketing from Calgary and I'm looking for some extra work that aligns with my passion for animals. I have experience taking care of animals (meal prep, grooming, feeding, playing etc.). I would love to meet your furry friends 😊 When I come to your house I will dedicate my time to providing lots of nourishment and entertainment for your pet. There's nothing I love more than cats and dogs, animals make me happy. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets. I work from home so there is alot of flexibility for time of day. I can also take last minute requests. I can be available on weekends as well. I live with an Australian Shepherd and take him for walks multiple times per day. I have experience feeding, cleaning and playing with dogs and cats.
