About: I am currently completing my Veterinary Office Assistant program to pursue my dream job working at a vet clinic. I have an extensive, well-rounded background when it comes to caring for animals (dogs and cats). I have extensive knowledge and experience when it comes to handling dogs; if you have a little troublemaker at home, I am up for the challenge. - Senior dog care (blind/ deaf dogs/administering meds.) - Former volunteer with AARCS - Animal care expert at PetValu - Puppy training skills - 16+ years of experience dog walking/sitting for friends and family We have a 16 yr, old Shiba Inu at home named Blossom (A.K.A- Queen B). Blossom is deaf and semi-blind, but she still has some puppy energy for zoomies. I can devote my time and attention to your fur-baby and promise the best snuggles and quality pet care. If you are away on holiday, or just at work during the day, I am a trustworthy house sitter, and I can do some daily household tasks while you're away (light cleaning, shovel snow, etc.) I love working with dogs, whether we are running outside or being a potato cuddling on the couch. While you're away, I am able to send you photos of your fur-baby and give any necessary updates. I can usually take bookings on short notice, and I am available on holidays. I will be happy to make any necessary adjustments to ensure your pet receives the quality care they deserve. Available: Mornings, afternoons, evenings - Walks will be a minimum 1 hr. (unless told otherwise) -In-home visits (time varies) I have flexibility with my classes; I can prioritize yours and your fur-baby's schedule. I am able to offer my service at my clients house. Blossom rules the house so I'm able to come to you and see your pet in the comfort of your home. I respect that a clients home is private, I will keep it clean and ensure regular check ins (if needed),
“Kaela is amazing! I'm blown away by the write up she sent me after dropping by to take care of my cat Max; it reads like a delightful fable of a day in the life of a feline! She also took better photos of him in half an hour than I've been able to get in a year. Your pet is in great hands with Kaela!”
“Conner took great care of our cat Leo while we were away. He is an awesome communicator and kept us up to date with lots of picture. It was our first time using Rover and Conner made the whole process a breeze. Thanks Conner!”
“Paige has been excellent with my puppy making sure she is cared for during the day on drop in visits. Paige is very reliable showing up promptly at our designated time and communicating with me about the visit. Would definifely recommend.”

About: Your pet will always receive my full attention. I specialize in one-on-one care to ensure a calm, safe, and personalized experience every time. I have several years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I previously had two dogs and currently have a friendly cat at home, so I understand different pet personalities and needs. Over the years, I’ve also been involved in rescuing stray cats and dogs, which has given me strong hands-on experience and a calm, patient approach when caring for animals. I focus on providing a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed during their stay or walks. During walks, I make sure each dog receives individual attention and appropriate exercise. All of my services are provided one-on-one to ensure every pet gets the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I only take a limited number of pets at a time to maintain high quality, personalized care. I have a flexible and reliable schedule, which allows me to provide attentive supervision and consistent care throughout the day to ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. I live in a clean, modern high-rise apartment downtown with a calm and quiet environment. My home is safe and pet-friendly, and pets are always supervised and cared for in a calm environment. I can follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, rest time, and crate use if requested by the owner.
“Johanna was so good with our little furball, and we could tell when we got home that he had been in good hands with her! He was happy and excited when we got home, and all of the updates and pictures Johanna sent us while we were away made us feel very assured that he was not lonely and was getting lots of positive attention. :) Thank you so much, Johanna!”
“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!”

Calgary dog parents share their Rover experiences
Svitlana was fantastic with my large senior dog. She arrived on time and showed a lot of patience and care with him, and was always attentive to his needs. The photos she provided were a wonderful touch and really showcased his personality. I will be booking with Svitlana again and highly recommend her services!
Daniela did a fantastic job with my dog today! She stopped by for a potty break visit and was reliable, attentive, and clearly great with animals. I really appreciated the updates and could tell my dog was well taken care of and happy. It’s such a relief knowing I can count on her. I’d definitely recommend Daniela to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Chantel has been amazing coming twice a day to hang out with Hershey and take him on a walk around our neighborhood! He gets so excited when she comes to our door and waits for her on the top of our couch. She has been such a help while I’ve been recovering from knee surgery and haven’t been able to walk him myself :)
Kate was so wonderful! She came for a last minute visit with our 6 month old puppy (our first time using Rover with him). She made us feel so comfortable - she was very confident and sent us updates and photos during the visit. Our puppy was very happy and tired when we got home :). We will definitly call Kate again!
We booked a drop in visit with Kerry to have our enthusiastic and energetic Dobe meet her before we leave for a couple weeks. Kerry was very attentive to Wylie and listen carefully to the instruction we wanted to convey. Wylie was at ease very quickly with Kerry and I’m confident they will get along just fine when we are away.
This was my first time booking through Rover, and I'm very happy to have had Mary Grace break all the nerves that came with that. She was very kind, showed up very prepared, was understanding to my nervousness and treated my pups very well. My "usually never stops barking" pup even took to her so well that he wasn't barking by the second drop in. Thank you so much for making our weekend away easier than we thought and I hope you're available next time we need a hand =)
Mona is wonderful with our 14.5 year old dog. She is happy, friendly, reliable and courteous. She is not shy, she picks him up, kisses him, and lets him sit with her at all times. We are so appreciative to have Mona helping us. Our dog has trouble seeing and hearing and our condo is new to him. She is patient and kind and we are so thankful!
Loved working with this dog sitter! She was so gentle and caring with my puppy, sent me photos and updates during the visit, and everything was on time. You can tell she truly loves animals and takes her job seriously. I will definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!
This was our first time user the Rover app and Sydney was fantastic! She was helpful in understanding how it all works and sent awesome updates so we could see how our pup was doing. This was a great experience and we will definitely try to have Sydney back again!
