Pet Sitting Edmonton

About: Welcome, everyone! Thank you for visiting my profile! My availability calendar can be found under the "Services" tab! 🐶 **NOTICE** Update - Jan25, 2026 I have gladly begun to accept booking requests on a limited basis! I am accepting requests from April 3, 2926 on! However, I do strongly advise having a back-up sitter lined up as well, as a few things are still a little up in the air, and just in case something prevents me from providing the care that your beloved pet deserves! A few things have changed, so please also have a look through my profile to see the updated information. As always, please feel free to message me with any questions! Hope to see you soon, and thank you ever so much for your patience and understanding during this difficult time! 💜🐾 ☆ Before sending a Booking Request, please ensure tgat you are choosing the correct service for your needs! (as follows): BOARDING - You will drop your pet(s) off at my home, where they will stay and be cared for until you pick them up. HOUSE SITTING - I will come to your home to stay with your pets and care for them until you return (This service is paused during times I have other animals in care) DOGGY DAYCARE - You will be dropping your pet(s) off and picking them up from my home the same day. DROP-IN VISITS - I will come to your home to give your pet(s) the care they require during the day (limited by location - please ask if your area is within a manageable service zone) ☆ All new Pups and Pawrents - Booking requests should be made with enough time before your dates for you and your pup(s) to meet with me in person on an available day. (typically 1 to 1.5 hour, this is a prerequisite to a first stay. See my Calendar for availability.) However, there are some circumstances where this may not be possible, please let me know, as we could have other options! It is always a good idea to have a second choice in mind, just in case we won't be a good fit. ☆ ALL DayCare and Boarding prts MUST be up to date with Vaccinations and Deworming! You must be able to provide proof that your dog or cat is current! Daycare - please be aware that daycare services are limited, as this is not my "main" business. I typically will take daytime clients on a stay-to-stay basis as needed, as opposed to an ongoing commitment. Because I only take one family's pets at a time, daycare stays mean that longer overnight stays that may be needed by others are not able to be booked. I apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for understanding! Please reach out yo see if my daycare services are right for you and your pup(s)! 🐾 Now that all the "formal"stuff is out of the way...let me introduce myself! 💜🐾 I've been caring for pets since I was 8, when I got my first dog, a Sheltie named Bailey, who was with me for 10 years 🐾 I have 2 years experience and hands-on training as an AHT/Surgical Assistant in a vet hospital, followed by 6 years experience caring for large numbers of animals at a rescue, and in foster care with two different resue organizations. I have always had pets in my home, and heart, ranging from birds, "pocket pets",ferrets and, of course,dogs and cats. I am Pet First Aid certified through Walks 'n' Wags. I am able to take pups up to 30 lbs, dogs above this weight are chosen on a discretionary basis; by age, energy level, care requirements, temperament and behavior, and must be met through a meet & greet prior to booking. These pups MUUST be calm around other animals for everyone's safety! I have just ecently opened up occasional boarding care for cats, providing there are no fosters or other clients in the home. This allows your cat yo have as much comfortable, quiet space as they prefer, and access to feline-friendly spaces such as windows, furniture, and outdoor catio (coming soon!!). If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to reach out! 💕🐾 I am no longer working, so that means I am most often at home. I do have periods of time in which I have frequent appointments, and may be out for several hours, however I do my best to accomodate the pups and bookings around these days. This gives me plenty of time to spend with your pets in and around my home, making it ideal if you have a puppy, senior or special needs pup who requires frequent potty breaks, medications, or extra attention! ☆☆ ABOUT DOG WALKING SERVICES☆☆ As this is a trial run for Walking Services for the month of June, and dependent on weather conditions and other service bookings, I have paired it with an amazing fundraising oppourtunity!! ⭐️ If you have, or know someone who has a pup under 30lb (or a pair totalling 30-40lb) who would love an extra walk, and you are located NW, Downtown, University, or any place close to (10min walking distance) an LRT stop OR within a 1hr travel time distance from my home via transit, I would love to offer a 20% discount off all walk services, with a donation to my June Dog Walk Challenge for the Canadian Cancer Society! Details and link provided upon request! ♡ 🐾 Active! walk - $20/30min ☆ $32/60min 🐾 Let Them Sniff! walk - $18/30min ☆ $28/60min 🐾 Leisurely Stroll! walk (for senior or special needs pups) $15/30min • Second Dog +$12 • Some pups may be eligible for a "Mini Field Trip! - Please ask for details, if your pup is a good traveller and you think this is something they would enjoy! All dogs must be well-behaved on leash, must wear a harness and flat/martingale collar together, and walked on a flat leash, retractables and negative-impact devices will be refused, all of these are for the safety of your pups, as well as myself! Thank you! Your pet will have free range of the main living area of my home, as well as a moderate, secure, fully fenced backyard for outdoor play time and potty breaks. Coming spring/summer 2026, cats will have acces to a large, secure catio for outside time (weather permitting duting the day). They will have plenty of attention as I am home most of the time. It is an asset if they are comfortable in a kennel (large size for comfort) for just a few hours at a time while I am out, but other arrangements can certainly be made to accommodate your pet's individual needs, such as a bedroom setup instead. Typically, most puos do best here when set up in a large, enclosed pen with all their conforts. They will NEVER be unattended while outdoors. I do my best to keep their routines consistent, and their environment enricing. I also make my own vegan dog treats for those with allergies and sensitive stomach! Home-made cat treats are made low-carb, and with real, whole ingredients.

About: One of my previous jobs was at the Edmonton Humane Society, where I worked with all breeds and sizes of dogs. I am Fear Free certified, which means your dogs will always be treated with kindness and care. Throughout my 10+ years of experience, I never encountered a dog I couldn't handle or get through to. I truly believe that there are no bad dogs. I am currently a student part time at NAIT and am looking for some income and movement in-between my online classes. I am available around 6 hours a day for walking, and am very flexible with my schedule and time. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly golden retriever who's good with cats and dogs. I also have 4 cats that are all cat and dog friendly as well. It's a bit of a zoo but everyone is happy and healthy. I always say the animals eat better than we do.

“Kelsey is fantastic with our cats! Reliable and spends extra time to give them attention and playtime! Would 10/10 recommend.”

“Sarah-Beth helped out with Gus with very short notice. She kept me updated and sent pictures. It was nice to know he was being well taken care of.”

“I am beyond thrilled with the care Ella provides for my dog! Every time we arrive, my dog can hardly contain her excitement as her tail wags, she howls in excitement, and how eagerly she runs to greet Ella. It's such a comforting feeling knowing that she loves spending time with Ella, which speaks volumes about the level of care provided. Ella is great with dogs, and it shows in every interaction. She’s patient, attentive, and truly understands my dog's needs and quirks. She has extensive experience taking care of dogs, including her own pup, Ron! My dog has so much fun playing with Ron. Whether it's playtime in the yard, walks, or chilling on the couch, my dog always comes home happy, content, and to a good sleep. One of the things I appreciate most are the regular updates Ella sends. The photos and videos of my dog having fun and enjoying herself give me so much peace of mind while I'm away. It's clear that she's not just being looked after, but genuinely cared for and loved. Ella is also reliable and professional. She’s always punctual and is flexible with scheduling, which makes everything so much easier. If you're searching for someone who will treat your dog like their own and provide the highest level of care, I wholeheartedly recommend Ella!”

“Ava was excellent! She was quick and easy to communicate with and she took great care of our boys while we were exploring Sicamous and the Wineries! Would love to have her again when we return for another vacation! Highly recommend.”

About: I have had pets in my home since I was a child and pets gravitate towards me. I would love to take your dog for a walk and fetch in the park, or take care of them overnight. My dog & I frequently enjoy hours together in the river valley and he would love a companion. If you’re not comfortable with that (though he is a sweetheart), I can walk your pup solo! I’ll always be sure to have water on hand, and if permitted, treats! You can rest assured that your dog (or cat or ferret) will be safe and happy in my care. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know and I will be happy to give you anymore relevant information! I work evenings and weekend brunches at a restaurant, so I can walk your dog any day of the week! Usually available same day for last minute needs I live in a gated community downtown so your pet would be safe in my home. I also drive a Ford escape so there’s plenty of space for multiple dogs in my vehicle for transportation to walks.

About: I'm a cat foster with a local animal rescue, and have lived with pets almost all my life. I have experience with clicker and target training with both dogs and cats! My first clicker trainee was my cat, Oscar. With the rescue, I gained experience with diabetes treatment. I'm always happy to learn more about animal care. I have a fairly flexible schedule, which lends me the freedom to spend more time with your pet. As I currently have a foster cat, I am currently unable to offer boarding, and need to be at my home at least twice a day to administer medications. I have good experience with pet needs such as feeding, crating, nail trimming, bathing, and minor medical attention such as giving medications and diabetes management. I regularly research animal behavior and training methods to help me be a more effective support. I'm flexible about visit times, locations, dog size, and pricing. I have some physical limitations and only use transit. Feel free to send me a message and we can discuss things further. I'm happy to discuss alternatives that would be suitable everyone.

“Hannah was very responsive and attentive during the sitting service. Hannah followed a lot of instructions well. Grooming my two medium-hairs daily was very important and I appreciated Hannah's willingness to take the time to do it. Hannah will spend the time needed to properly care for your animals and I would happily hire this sitter again.”

“Pups loved her!”

“Took care of Tino as expected, sent pictures and was responsive. 👌🏻”

“John got along with my three elderly kitties really well; they seemed to want to adopt him! He took great care of Finn, my 16-year old diabetic ginger cat, who needs 2 regular shots of insulin a day. The photos he sent were a real highlight of my day! I missed them a lot, but it was a huge comfort to know they were being looked after.”

About: I've taken care of pets ever since I can remember, all the way from dogs to lizards. I have always been passionate about pet care since I was a little girl because I believe animals are the most misunderstood gift that humans have been given. I understand that all animals require that we pay attention to their specific means of communication and needs. I am knowledgeable in gaining the trust of pets, advanced in hygiene maintenance, capable of medicinal administration, proficient in providing pets exercise and abiding by and understanding diet restrictions. I am fully available for pet care for all hours during the day, and am able to do overnight stays with pre arranged appointments. If a long multiple day stay is required I need time to go back to my home for 1 or 2 hours during the day to take care of my own pet. I care for pets in my client's home given that they provide clear instructions for how they want me to care for their pet and they make me aware of the supplies and resources their pet requires. If I am to do an in home appointment, I require a phone call and one in person meeting to get to know you and your pet.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Zoe. She did drop-in visits for our four cats over two weeks and truly went above and beyond in every way. Her communication was excellent—she provided detailed notes after each visit along with lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our cats were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Zoe also took amazing care of our home. She even shoveled when it snowed and brought in packages that arrived while we were gone, which was incredibly thoughtful. When we returned, the house smelled fresh and clean—not like litter at all—which says so much about the level of care she put in. We would absolutely recommend Zoe to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter.”

About: Having owned two wonderful dogs in my life and been a special friend & "aunt" of several other dogs and some cats. I am highly experienced and motivated to help you care for your beloved furry family members. I am warm, friendly and calm around animals and I find they are naturally drawn to me. I am trained in reiki and use gental reiki energy to balance and relax your pets in your absence. I do contract work and I am writing a book, so my time is flexible and I am available to spend quality time with your pets. As a sitter who would be in your home, caring for your pets, I would be able to follow your established schedule in order to cause the least distress and or disruption for your pets.

About: I have volunteered at the Edmonton humane society for 5 years with cats and small animals. I have experience walking small and medium dogs for friends as well as owning a sheltie for 10 years. I am home full time and my availability is quite open. My kids may be with me and shower love and attention on your fur babies. I have a fenced backyard and many doors in the house to section off an area for supervision. I am willing to travel or transport pets with my own large vehicle. I am home full time with my 3 kids so your pet will get lots of attention from our full house. We love to be outdoors with your pet! We have a fenced backyard and live in a quiet neighbourhood. We have little traffic going by our house. It’s a great area for a stress free walk for your dog!

“Melissa is the sweetest human!!! Our 2 cats loved her!! Would highly highly recommend Melissa and will definitely hire her again.”
