“We really appreciated Andre’s help looking after our mini schnauzer and home while away for a few days. He’s a great communicator and made our short vacation easy knowing our pooch was in good hands.”

“We have a new puppy and an older dog who just had his remaining eye removed. Both pups required special care and Jodi was just the best! She was here on Easter Sunday and gave us the freedom to go visit family and not take the new pup or recovering dog with us. I would recommend Jodi to anyone who wants excellent care for their fur babies.”


“We took a bit of a leap of faith booking Cashlyn on short notice through Rover since she’s quite young and only had a couple of reviews at the time — but wow, did that gamble ever pay off. From the very first meet and greet, she showed up prepared with a notepad and asked thoughtful, detailed questions about our pets and their routines. It was obvious right away that she takes this seriously. I’m extremely particular about my dog’s care, so I don’t hand that trust over easily. Somehow Cashlyn managed to not only meet that bar but exceed it. Over the three weeks we were away, she went way above and beyond. She consistently sent updates with photos and videos twice a day without us ever needing to ask, which gave us incredible peace of mind. Our pets were clearly happy, relaxed, and very well cared for the entire time — honestly, it almost felt like our pets might miss her when she left. We also came home to a house in pristine condition. The level of care, attention, and professionalism she showed was far beyond what we expected. Safe to say, she absolutely earned us as long-term clients for as long as she chooses to keep doing this. If you’re considering booking her, don’t hesitate — we would trust her again in a heartbeat.”


About: Taking care of animals has always been a big part of my life. I grew up with pets and still share my home with them today, so being around animals feels natural to me. I’m not someone who rushes in and out. I take my time, pay attention, and make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’m big on the little moments and always make space for extra affection, play, and quiet cuddle time. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to watch their pets while they’re away, sometimes for days or even weeks. Those stats are filled with walks, meals, playtime, and most of all plenty of love that is never rushed. When your pet is with me, they’re treated just like my own, with patience, kindness, and genuine care. If you want someone who will care for your pets like family, I’d be happy to help. Pets are a big part of my daily life, and I love caring for them. I’m a first-year Open Studies student at the University of Calgary, and with a light course load, I have a flexible schedule to give your pets the attention they deserve. I also play on the Dino’s women’s soccer team, bringing the same energy, focus, and dedication to caring for pets as I do on the field. My own pets are spoiled with cuddles, playtime, and lots of affection, even on days when I’m not pet sitting. That same love and patience goes into caring for every animal I look after, whether they need walks, visits throughout the day, overnight care, or quiet lap time. I take my time with each pet and make sure they feel calm, comfortable, and truly cared for. I provide all pet care right in your home, so your cats, dogs, or other furry family members can stay in a familiar, stress-free environment with their favorite toys, cozy spots, and daily routines. I follow your instructions carefully, secure doors and windows, respect all household rules, and treat your home with the same care I would my own. With a lifelong love of animals, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s walks and playtime for dogs, gentle cuddles and chin scratches for cats, fresh meals and water, potty breaks, litter box care, or just quiet companionship, I give attention that’s tailored to each pet’s needs. Owners appreciate how relaxed and content their pets remain, knowing both their home and furry family members are in caring, trustworthy hands.
“Highly recommend Tesa! We have two high maintenance dogs (one very high energy and one reactive with other dogs) and Tesa handled them both wonderfully. House was clean, dogs were happy. Will book again.”


About: I’ve had dogs and cats most of my life, my partner and I have been fostering dogs with Pound Rescue for 2 years. We currently have 1 dog and 3 cats and have between 1-2 foster dogs I’m currently working full time but most of my work is done on Weekends or from home, so during the day during the week I’m usually pretty wide open I have a fenced yard. I take my dog and any foster dogs that are ready to the off leash parks in Okotoks. Also do leash walks with my dog as I feel it’s good for him to have leash manners as well as being able to have a free run at the dog park
“Annick was a great pet sitter. She was reliable, kind, and took excellent care of my pets. I came home to happy animals and everything just as I left it. I would recommend her to anyone needing a caring and trustworthy sitter.”
“We were very happy having Gabriella stay with our dog and our cat. They were well cared for. She sent me pictures while we were away somIncould see they were both quite happy! We will definitely have her back.”

“Allison was wonderful with our dog! Our Goldie got plenty of love, exercise and snuggles while we were away. We also received plenty of photos and updates with all the fun adventures they went on. Thanks so much for taking such great care of Goldie and our home while we were away.”

About: I have owned dogs since the day I was born, and have trained my own dogs since I was 20 (8 yrs) I’ve always loved animals and extremely enjoy spending time with them! I’ve owned birds, rabbits, chinchilla, snakes, you name it! I treat all animals with love and care I am a mobile eye lash technician and I set my own schedule so I can be free as much as needed for pet care When checking in on your fur babies in your home, I would greet them with lots of love and pets, take them out to use the washroom, make sure they have lots of water, feed them if needed, and of course spend time playing and interacting with your baby so they don’t feel so lonely when it’s time for me to leave as well
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet in my care like they’re my own. I have experience with puppy training, senior dog care, and dogs with a wide range of temperaments—from energetic and playful to shy or anxious. I also provide thoughtful, low-stress care for cats, including feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, and companionship for both social and more independent kitties. I’m patient, attentive, and calm, which helps pets feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. I tailor each walk, visit, or stay to your pet’s individual needs, energy level, and routine—whether that means a long walk, gentle enrichment, medication administration, or quiet cuddle time. In addition to dogs and cats, I also have experience working with large animals like horses, which has strengthened my ability to read animal behavior, handle responsibility, and stay calm and confident in any situation. Safety, trust, and reliability are always my top priorities. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions you have—medications, feeding schedules, training reinforcement, or special care needs. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are in loving, capable hands. If you’re looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and genuinely passionate about animals, I’d love to care for your furry (or whiskered!) family members. I work in childcare Monday through Friday until 4pm, which allows me plenty of availability for pet care in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I enjoy fitting pet care into my routine and make sure each pet gets dependable, attentive care. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and your pet’s comfort at all times. I carefully follow your instructions, maintain routines, and keep environments calm and secure. I’m attentive to behavior and body language to ensure pets feel safe and relaxed!
About: I have had dogs since I was born. Mostly large breeds but we did adopt an older Chihuahua for my daughter and he’s now a senior. I have trained and shown dogs as a kid and loved every minute. I’ve always been asked to pet/house sit and so I thought I’d offer my services to everyone. I currently work part time (from home) and am a mom to a human, a 18 month old pup and a 7 month old pup. The human is 10 years old now 😉. Taking care of dog has always been a passion of mine. I pay attention to the little things. They are part of the family when they are with me. We have a fully fenced backyard but when we get bored of that we hit the trails, parks and dog parks. The world is ours to explore! Or we can curl up and watch a movie on the couch if it’s too windy/chilly outside. I’m a work at home mom so I have a flexible schedule. My daughter is in school full time and I work from my home office. We live on 103 acres. There is a dedicated dog run and plenty of pastures for them to roam in. We are set back from the road and have fences everywhere.
“Jorja is wonderful! She is both reliable and an excellent communicator. She was able to handle the special needs of our high energy, 5 month old shepherd cross puppy and very senior golden with excellent care. She has a lovely calm way with our dogs, and we are delighted to recommend her for pet care!”

“She truly goes above and beyond. She did everything to make sure my poor girl was comfortable as she was having some anxiety issues and she took every extra step to help her get through it. By the end they were besties… which also eased my mind. Was also a special sprite to come home to a house that was put together and dogs that were happy and excited. She will be permanent and regular”

“Kaitlyn watched both of our dogs and she was absolutely awesome. Our dogs are big and have a lot of energy, we loved getting videos and photos during our time away of them playing! There were consistent updates, which we really appreciated. They were both spoiled with treats! When we came home our pups were so happy and our house was super clean!”

“We booked Shelby a second time and once again she was great! Great communication, took good care of our cat Scout, and left the house in great condition. Would highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!”

“Jay was literally the best pet/house sitter ever! I think our dog might actually prefer him over us now! Jay was so attentive, went above and beyond and was extremely accommodating especially as we booked him last minute! Thank you again Jay! We will absolutely be using Jay again in the future!!”

20/10. Andre is awesome. The perfect amount of responsible and relaxed. I didn’t worry about my dog once while I was gone and he left my house looking perfect.
