“This is the second month Johanna is going to my place to take care of my cockatiel and as always she was very helpful, caring and took good care of my bird. I strongly recommend her services. 5 stars for sure!”

About: I have 4 years of dog walking/care experience. I mostly did it in Chestermere when I lived there but now ready to get out and about in Calgary! I’ve had lots of regular customers I’ve walked for more than 2 years. I truly see the best qualities in each and every dog. I have my very own rambunctious 2 year old corgi that is my baby, as well as my families dog that is a chocolate lab/border collie who is almost 8 that I also love with all my heart! I have a very diverse schedule as I also work as a server in fine dining, typically working in the evenings, my days are mostly open. When it comes to drop-in visits I will cater to the energy your dog brings. Whether that’s playing with toys letting out lots of energy or just having a companion and getting lots of scratches and love, I will be there to meet your dogs needs!


“Lynda was great with Caton and was really helpful with our very flexible schedule. Will definitely be calling on Lynda again for future dog care. She also makes dog treats that I have never seen disappear so fast ?”


“Marc is an exceptional sitter and I would gladly use his services again. Our cat, Mittens, is generally very shy but he warmed up to Marc right away. We loved all the check-ins and the peace of mind that Marc gave us during our time away. Hire Marc for your next trip - you'll be glad that you did!!”


About: Being sitting for friends and family for a long time. I have experience with pet of all sizes and most types. I try to spend time them instead of just doing a quick check. Currently I am part-time so I lots of time to spend with your little furry one. The schedule is flexible so I have no problems with morning and early afternoons. Weekend a bit more busy but usually can make it work. I love giving them as much as attention as possible. I am happy to give pets and do a bit of grooming. Your little one will be always my priority.

About: Hey there! I’m an animal lover through and through. Growing up surrounded by pigs, cows, and chickens, I’ve always been immersed by fur, feathers, and a whole lot of love. In my lifetime, I’ve also had the privilege of caring for two wonderful cats and a dog, who I adopted from the streets. My dog, who was with me for 16 years, was more than just a pet, he was my best friend and constant companion. The passing of my pets, left a big space in my life, but it also inspired me to help others in the same way I was supported when they were around by offering love, comfort, and care to pets who need it. I’m passionate about making sure every pet gets the attention they deserve, whether it’s a senior dog who needs extra TLC, a playful puppy ready for adventure, or a cat with their own quirks and needs. Not all pets are the same, and I take the time to understand each one’s unique personality and provide the tailored care they need. From feeding and bathing to administering medications and cleaning up, I’m well-equipped to care for both dogs and cats, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved in their own way. I don’t have pets of my own right now, I’m excited to fill that space by helping yours feel loved and cared for. I live in a pet-friendly neighborhood, know all the best parks, and am familiar with local vets in the area. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry (or furry and feisty!) friend and provide them with the same love and care that meant so much to me. I’m currently working during the week but I would love to host a furry friend during the weekends and stat holidays. I am also available to check in on your pet in the evenings during the week or otherwise, at your place. Your pet will be treated like family here! They’re welcome on the furniture, and my husband, a fellow animal lover, is always excited to help out. We live near a dog park, and our building has a dog washing station for easy clean-ups. Plus, we have an enclosed, safe balcony where your pet can relax and enjoy some fresh air. I’m fully equipped with all the essentials, food, toys, leashes, and more, to make sure your pet feels right at home.


About: I love dogs and used to volunteer with a dog rescue to foster dogs before they found their forever home. Many had trust issues, so I took the time needed to show them love and gain their trust. I want to create a safe space for dogs, gain their trust and help them enjoy their time with me. I grew up caring for a little yorkie and dog sat my roommate's dog with they travel abroad. I do believe in discipline, so if a dog misbehaves, they will get a time out. That being said, I will make sure dogs are not in a situation that will lead to such behaviour. I work 9am to 5pm in downtown Calgary, so my time is restricted to evenings and weekend. I live in East Vancouver but work near BC Place so can easily walking dogs near these area. I work 4 days a week and free am free weekends. I live with a dog and cat and love spoiling them. If I could have my own dog I would but shall enjoy caring for pets until then. I care for pets by following their routine closely—feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection in a calm, safe environment.

“Rachel was amazing with both my dogs. They were instantly comfortable with her, and she offered and stayed for extra time. She is very sweet and understanding. I love her vibe and I think my dogs are in safe hands with her.”


“Amber was so patient and attentive to Freya while we were gone for the day. She sent us pictures and updates that put my mind at ease. She is a true dog lover and trustworthy. I highly recommend her for any walks or sitting you need!”


“This was our first time booking with Dariia and we would love to keep having her take care of our Bixi cat when we go camping or travelling. She was friendly and quick to respond to messages, and took great care of Bixi while we were away. Thanks Dariia!”


About: I absolutely love all animals and have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits. I’m a naturally caring and attentive sitter who treats every pet like family. I enjoy being active with pets, whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch, or working on fun new tricks. I’m also comfortable with a wide range of needs, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pets who need a little extra care. My goal is always to make your pet feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! I currently work full time, Mon-Fri, 8am-4pm. I like to go for daily walks in the evening and can do drop ins anytime after 4:30pm. Fully available on weekends and holidays! I live in a dog-friendly one-bedroom condo downtown, just steps away from a beautiful park. It’s a cozy, safe space where your pet can feel right at home. I’m also happy to take them on walks to the nearby park or to the dog park for some playtime, runs, or even a swim if they love the water! If your pet feels more comfortable in their own environment, I’m equally happy to care for them in your home, following their usual routines to help them feel secure and relaxed.

“100% Recommend Madison, we needed someone to feed our 2 cats last minute while we were away over Christmas. Madison came every night to feed them, gave our our bigger girl her meds, and played with both cats. She also fed our fish and changed the litter boxes. We got daily updates with pictures, and communication was amazing. We will definitely use her the next time we go out of town.”


About: I have a 5-year-old Goldendoodle named Jiggs, who I’ve had the joy of raising on my own since he was just 10 weeks old! I’m passionate about the outdoors, whether it’s running or walking with him, and I absolutely love spending time with animals in any way I can! I work full time Monday to Friday with additional flexibility on Fridays. My evenings and weekends are flexible and free for your pet care needs! I live in a pet friendly condo with the ability to crate your dog if needed. My dog is friendly but I will require an introduction prior to bringing a dog into my home. I am familiar with crate trained and non crate trained dogs.

Artemis L.
“Artemis clearly loves animals and they love her. She looked after my rabbit when I was on a week long vacation and quickly met the learning curve of caring for a somewhat finnicky animal she hadn't cared for before. She balanced his needs for safety and consistency with his needs for social time and to get out and explore. Having seen her with other peoples' pets, she gives plenty of attention and care, and also ensures their needs are robustly met.”


ANILA P.
“Anila has cared for my cat numerous times while I was away. She is kind, thoughtful, and extremely knowledgable when it comes to pet care. I know she has grown up with a variety of animals and has given them an amazing life. I have witnessed firsthand her care and attention towards her senior dog who lived an incredibly full and long life all credit to her love. I know Anila will care for any animal as if they are her own and will be professional and respectful while doing so. I strongly recommend Anila for any pet care or sitting needs.”




Elizabeth W.
“Elizabeth (Liz) was Lydia's first dog sitter and continued to dog sit for us until she moved away from Edmonton. She is excellent with shy and scared dogs that need a bit of work to come out of their shells. Liz is empathetic, compassionate and truly cares about each dog that she works with. In addition to dog sitting Lydia, Liz was a foster pawrent for Calican Rescue and looked after many dogs with a vast range or personalities and abilities. I would recommend Liz to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dog and truly treat them as part of their family.”
