House Sitting in Okotoks

“Alana was great and patient with our puppies. She sent lots of photos, which were greatly appreciated and we had great communication during the time we were away. She left the house as she found and most importantly the dogs looked calm and comfortable around her. Will definitely be booking her to watch our dogs again!”

“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.”

“Daniela did an excellent job looking after our two dogs. Our older dog has some health concerns and Daniela provided great care of her and provided numerous updates and photos during her time with the dogs. She was very responsive with messages and I would recommend her to others for dog sitting jobs.”

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.

“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.”

About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities, including my own 5 year old Cockapoo, Coco, who I have raised and trained myself. I am very attentive, patient, and genuinely love animals, which helps me quickly build trust with pets. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I provide. I don’t just watch pets..I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved like they are in their own home. I am experienced with potty training and consistent routines, including teaching Coco to ring a bell when he needs to go outside. I’m great at reading a dog’s behavior and adjusting to their needs, whether that means giving energetic playtime, calm companionship, or extra patience with senior dogs. I’m reliable, gentle, and always focused on making sure every pet feels happy and cared for while their owner is away. I am currently flexible, so pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I can provide consistent, reliable, and attentive care whenever needed, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. In my home, I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise under supervision. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions from the owner.

About: I have loved animals since I was a kid. I used to volunteer at a animal shelter back in my hometown. Growing up i had a shitzu, chihuahua and two male tabby cats. I used to house sit for my brother who has a golden retriever, pitbull, two cats and 4 rabbits. I understand animal behavior and their needs. I am very patient and loving I am currently off work so my schedule is very flexible and will be for the entire year or two. But will give plenty of notice if there are any changes I have a fenced yard, lots of space inside for pets. Can provide nutritional homemade food and fresh water. I also have a golden retriever puppy to socialize with other pets

“Jessica has great communication, pictures everyday. House was as clean if not cleaner than when we left. Highly recommend her!”

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

“Taylex was amazing and really saved us on Christmas Day so our dogs didn't have to stay home alone for too long. She is very kind and sweet, and she is someone you can trust in your home. We really appreciate her time and we will definitely use her again in the future:) Dori and Terry”

“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.”

“Fred was terrific! I appreciated the daily updates - including pictures - while he cared for our dog in our home. Bauer was well cared for and upon our return home, the house was clean and neat. Highly recommend Fred and will request his services again!”

“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’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have never gone without having one by my side, so looking after them feels completely natural to me. While I was away at university, I even fostered a couple of dogs because I missed having that companionship so much it was incredibly rewarding to give them love and stability while they waited for their forever homes. I’m comfortable with a range of needs, from energetic puppies who benefit from consistent routines and basic training, to senior dogs who need a gentler, more attentive approach. What sets me apart is the genuine connection I build with every dog I care for as I treat them like my own. Recently, I lost my two dogs, and while I’m not quite ready to bring a new puppy into my home, caring for others’ pets feels like the perfect way to keep sharing that love, attention, and companionship that dogs deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I make it a priority in my day. I’m currently working part-time with a chiropractic internship from Monday to Thursday, which still leaves me with plenty of time and energy to give your dog the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I’m available on weekdays after 4pm as well as on weekends, making it easy for me to accommodate walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or overnight care. I’m reliable, flexible, and committed to making sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. At my place, I have a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor time and supervised play. There is also one friendly 2-year-old Havanese (my parents’ dog), so I’m mindful of introductions and always make sure all dogs feel comfortable and safe. I can easily crate your dog if that’s part of their routine, or they’re welcome to have free roam of the house if preferred. In a client’s home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible to keep things consistent and stress-free. My goal is always to create a trustworthy, secure environment where your pet feels relaxed, cared for, and right at home.

“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.”

About: I have had animals my entire life and absolutely love all furry family members. I currently have the most energetic and friendly pup named Oscar. I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages, including my previous senior pup who was blind and on a specialty diet. Daily walks and dog park trips will be on the agenda as well enrichment toys and games. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, an energetic adult, a senior companion, or a cat who prefers a calm environment, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently work 5 days a week for a maximum of 5 hours, so I have tons of time to spend playing and cuddling our furry friends. I have a fenced in yard for quick potty breaks, tons of walking paths near me and I am walking distance from a dog park! I can adhere to any diet or accommodations your dog or cat needs to have a relaxing stay.

“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!”

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!

“I am really very happy with Chelsea, we have our usual dog sitter which did not work out this time. Chelsea took initiative, met my dogs, checked out my house, asked lots of good questions, and checked in before I departed. She did well with the directions left, having to improvise a lot (my bad) while taking good care of my munchkins. She asked questions to clarify and kept in touch with photos too which meant a great deal. Thank you ☺️”
