Dog Sitting Cochrane

About: I have grown up around cats, dogs, and fish my whole life. I love taking care of animals and spending time with them. Being around animals is regulating for me. I love giving animals attention, however, I am, aware and respectful of animals who do not want to be touched or bothered. I don't mind spending a good amount of time with animals and ensuring all their needs are met. I have experience with all different types of dogs and cats. I am comfortable walking with dogs. I love spending time outdoors and going for walks. I work with families and go into different homes Monday-Friday. I am available on weekends and weeknights/lunches/early morning. I am an honest person, who loves all animals. I know how difficult it is leaving my cat when I go on holidays and it is always nice to have someone that you can trust to take care of them and come into your home. I want to provide that safety for others who are leaving to go away, whether that be for vacation, visiting family, work, etc., so that they can enjoy their time and not have to worry about their pets.

“Lyndsie is amazing! She kept our two French bulldogs company while we were away for a week. She came everyday to let them outside, and play with them. She sent us pictures and updates, which we loved so much! We will be calling Lyndsie again in the near future.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have cared for them through every stage, from playful puppies to their senior years. I’m also my friends and family’s go-to pet sitter, looking after both dogs and cats of different ages and personalities. I especially love spending time with pets while their owners are away. Whether it’s going for a walk, stopping by after work for some company, feeding them, playing, or giving them lots of cuddles, I’m happy to make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I work Monday–Friday from 8:00–4:00 and am based in NW Calgary, but I have plenty of flexibility around my work schedule! I’m available to stop by around my lunch hour (11:30–12:30) in SE Calgary, and I can also visit anytime after 4:00 p.m. depending on your location. My weekends are generally wide open, so I’m happy to accommodate longer visits, walks, or multiple drop-ins. I’d love to give your pets the care they need while you’re away — whether that’s a good walk, basic care, playtime, or most importantly, lots of attention and stimulation! I like to keep pets comfortable and stick to their usual routine as much as possible. When visiting a client’s home, I’m happy to provide meals, fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention and cuddles. I’ll also make sure they get plenty of mental stimulation and company while their owners are away. I have experience administering pill medications to pets and am happy to follow any specific care instructions or routines your pet needs. I’ll take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have a diploma in canine care, behaviour and welfare. I was a dog handler in a luxury pet hotel and was at the forefront of the creation of one of the UK’s most successful raw dog food companies. I adore animals, and spend every moment I can with as many as I can. I resonate with the quote “A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself” and will devote my life to ensure every animal I encounter feels the love it deserves. I have 2 dogs back in England who I miss terribly and hope to bring to Canada one day. In the meantime, I will solemnly swear to take care of your babies as I would my own. Most of my early mornings, afternoons and evenings are free, in which I can care for your wonderful companions. I am happy to walk, play, feed and even take to the dog park for some much needed energy release! I have a truck, so if your dog loves car rides, I can make that happen too! I never let our furry friends out of my sight. Whether in my own home, or yours - all hazards are removed and a safe space will be provided to ensure your beloved pet stays safe and happy! I am courteous, clean, tidy and respectful.

About: I take my responsibility as a pet owner and pet sitter seriously not due to obligation, but because of a natural caring compassion towards animals. I have always had an innate affinity to be able to bond and connect with many different species and breeds of pets for as long as I can remember. I am a patient, kind, and empathetic person. I value myself for being clean and organized, as well as very passionate when it comes to caring for and nurturing not just people, but animals as well. I believe that animals are equal to humans in regard to how they should be treated with respect and shown attention and care. It is not in my interest to just earn a paycheck, it brings me great satisfaction and joy to be with and care for your animals. I have no preference toward either species, cats, or dogs. I enjoy being able to learn and spend time with both species, as well as every individual pet as being a unique with their own special quirky personalities. I look forward to meeting your pawsome partner and becoming their trustworthy ally should you decide to book my services to care for your furry little one(s)! I am growing and expanding my pet care network in the hopes of it becoming a Full Time and lifelong career path. I have no extra curriculars or commitments that I attend to besides the art program and my services offered here on Rover. Fenced front yard, as well as fenced back yard. Clean pet friendly home. Your pets will not be treated as just animals, but acknowledged as valuable family members. Discuss, coordinate, and draw up a thorough and detailed care plan for your pet as well as your home when booking for an in home pet sitting.

About: I’ve been around animals of all kind my whole life! Mostly grew up around small dogs and primarily chihuahuas. I fostered dogs for a number of years that came from high kill shelters and cared for them until they were adopted to new families. My family usually counts on me to watch their pets while they go on vacation. I used to work full time as a manager in an office but now I am home full time for now. It’s just me and my kiddo in the home and it’s a very relaxed environment. We both absolutely love animals! During the week we are relaxing at home. On weekends we try to get out of the house and do activities and would love your pet to join us! I treat animals like they were my own! I follow instructions to a T and i make sure the animal is well looked after and beyond! I also don’t force myself on animals and give them time to adjust and warm up.

I carefully follow all instructions provided by owners to ensure their pets experience as little disruption to their routine as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the home and the animals with the utmost respect. I keep the environment clean and secure, double-check that doors, gates, and leashes are properly fastened, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages, so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. With my experience volunteering at local animal shelters and caring for animals with special needs throughout my life, I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behavior and responding calmly and responsibly.

About: I’m a professional dog trainer with hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes, ages, energy levels, and personalities. My experience includes obedience training, leash skills, structured walks, confidence building, and working with dogs who need extra guidance or structure. I believe walks should be more than simply getting a dog from point A to point B. They’re a chance to explore, get physical and mental exercise, practice good habits, and enjoy time outside. I tailor each walk to the individual dog, whether they need a relaxed sniffing walk, some extra exercise, or a little training mixed into their outing. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’d love to meet you and your pup beforehand so we can go over their routine, needs, and anything important for me to know. I have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, except for sundays, making it easy for me to provide consistent and reliable pet care. I can fit walks, drop-ins, and other care into my daily routine while giving each dog the time and attention they need.

In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely and make sure their pet receives the appropriate exercise, enrichment, feeding, and attention. As a dog trainer, I’m comfortable handling dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I always prioritize safety, structure, and a positive experience.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I recently moved to Canada from Ukraine, while my own dog, Oskar, stayed back home with my family. I miss him every day, and caring for other dogs brings me so much joy and helps me feel connected to what I love most. I’ve spent years looking after Oskar as well as dogs belonging to friends and family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always treat them with patience, kindness, and love. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay.

He was my best friend and a huge part of my life, so I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us. They’re family! I’ve also worked at a pet boarding facility, where I cared for cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities. I have experience house sitting large dogs and caring for cats in their homes as well. I’m comfortable giving medications, following specific feeding routines, and taking care of the not so glamorous stuff that comes with having pets. My goal is simple: I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog needs lots of walks and playtime, your cat needs some company, or your pet has a very specific routine, I’m happy to follow it. 🐶🐱 I work in person Monday through Friday from 8:00 to 4:30, so I’m primarily available for evening visits, overnight stays, weekends, and walks or drop ins outside of my work hours.

About: I was a dog mom 11 years and am not ready for one again so let me love yours. I am experienced with all kinds of breeds and training styles I have a flexible schedule so would love to fill my days with something I enjoy and dogs are it so best of both worlds We do not have a yard but large spaces around us as well I do believe if a dog is able to walk what better way then to do it verses just sitting in the yard.

About: I am a student who recently has stumbled upon much more free time. I love dogs so much If I didn't need the money id do this for free! I'd be delighted to keep your dogs company, even just for a walk. There isn't a dog I've met that I haven't loved. I rescued my dog Nala from the pound and trained her so I have experience dealing with needy and sometimes difficult dogs. Unfortunately, I recently lost Nala, and the opportunity to spend time around other dogs again excites me. I am very flexible with hours and will accommodate any needs of the dog or of the family. I'm a bigger guy so I can deal with big dogs without too much trouble. In the words of the great Roger Caras, “Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.”

“Gabriella was courteous and peasant. She was very timely, and even stayed longer than booked with our pup. Thanks for your help Gabriella!”
