About: Sits outside of Red Deer 3+ nights only. Walks and check-ins only available in Red Deer. I’ve had dogs all my adult life. I currently share my home with a young chihuahua cross who I adopted from Fostering Hope Animal Rescue Foundation in Red Deer, and an adult cat, also adopted from a local Rescue. Over the years I’ve welcomed friends’ and family members’ dogs for holidays. Sometimes my pack was much bigger than others! 🤩 Now, it’s just me and Manny and my friendly cat. I’d love to open my peaceful home to your pet, short- or long term. I work from home currently. I am somewhat of a homebody, and if I have to leave a pet at home, it will never be for more than 4 hours, and is usually much less. I own my home. I have a fully fenced yard, and live 3 doors away from a big park. I love to walk, run, and if with a suitable dog, bicycle. If desired, there are two off-leash dog parks nearby.
“Tara and her family, welcomed Gemma into their home, was up dated with photos and videos, Gemma was enjoying herself. Gemma hadn’t been away from home but a couple of times. I wondered how she would react. I was completely at ease with Gemma being with Tara and Ian.”
About: I offer personalized, loving care for puppies and senior pets, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away. I’ll be a friendly companion, keeping your pet’s routine and comfort top of mind. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, as I have a completely free schedule. I can offer personalized care and attention whenever needed, ensuring your pet gets the love, exercise, and companionship they deserve at any time of day. In both my home and your pet’s home, I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment where your pet feels at ease. I maintain a pet-proof space to ensure their safety, and I follow their routines closely to provide consistency. Building trust is key, and I make sure to provide plenty of attention, care, and affection to help them feel secure and loved while you're away.
“Laura ans John were fabulous with my Schnauzer Dexter as were their dogs. They took care of him like he was their own. Dexter was super happy when I picked him up. We will definitely use them again.”
About: I have taken care of 7 of my own pets and many friends/family pets as well. I have dealt with all ages, 3 week old to 17 years old. I'm well versed in feeding and medication schedules. Also have dealt with alot of wound care after surgeries as well. I'm currently between jobs so I have a lot of time to put toward your pet and the attention for seeking for them. I'm honest, reliable, and overall a calm loving person. Dogs and cats are usually instantly my buddies and I will treat and care for them to your preference. I go above and beyond for my pets so for yours I would do the same. I have a large yard, lots of room to run and play. Unfortunately not fully fenced at this moment, but I have a large outdoor kitty/dog pen. I also have retractable tether leash. Since I am off right now the vast majority of my time can be with your pet. I love the outdoors and fixing things, I love walking and river adventures as well as snuggling on the couch with my pets and just enjoying their company.
“Stephanie was a wonderful sitter for our two dogs Scout and Nola. She was very attentive, sent us frequent updates/pictures and took the pups for walks even in the cold weather. Our dogs got along famously with her two dogs and her children. The whole family pitched in to help care for Nola (who can hunger strike while we’re out of town). Her daughter sat with Nola at mealtimes to make sure Nola felt comfortable enough to eat. We would highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a great family to sit your pup!”

Naomi was amazing with our dog Beau! We hadn’t left him for this long before (nine days), but she made us feel completely at ease with her daily updates, photos, and videos. The meet and greet with her animals went really well, and we could tell Beau was in great hands. We’re so grateful for everything Naomi did. We’ll definitely continue using her and are so happy to have found someone so great!
