“Janelle was fantastic. The updates she sent were very thorough and she really went above and beyond when it came to the house itself, not just the pets. The cats all seem to love her.”
“Carmen was absolutely great! She came to meet with us before, and the cats took an instant liking to her. We went away for 4 days and came home to very happy, well-fed cats. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone else needing to go away for a while!”
“Brittany was awesome! My kitty does NOT like strangers, but Brittany was so patient with her, I think she actually made a friend. She was a great communicator and the whole process was seamless. 100% will hire Brittany again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Teaghan doing drop-in visits for our senior cat while we were away. She gave the utmost care and was well adored by our cat. I received frequent updates about how things were going and all communication was great! Teaghan's service and professionalism went above and beyond our expectations. I highly recommend you book with her for your pet care needs! I will definitely become a repeat client!”
“Angela was amazing with Pandora. She spent the time with her playing and bonding. Got pictures of the two of them and a video with happy feet making her way down the hallway. I will definitely rebook with Angela in the future.”
About: I’ve been fortunate enough to have had dogs throughout my entire life. Most of my friends and family have dogs, which has given me the experience to handle both big and small breeds and many different personalities. I currently have a puppy named Freya. I also shared many years with my previous dog, Daga, a husky/Mal mix who passed away at the age of 12, and Duke our black lab that passed away at almost 15. Dogs are a big part of my family, and my life, so I understand that they are more than just a pet, and they all deserve to be treated with excellent care. I am currently a stay at home mome with a very flexible schedule, making it easy for me to work around you and your pets needs. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will provide a calm and secure environment. Pets will always be supervised and cared for according to their routine. I will take the time to understand each pet’s needs and follow all your instructions closely. I treat every animal like my own and keep pet parents updated so they can feel confident and at ease while they’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of a wide variety, since I was very young! Dogs, cats, rabbits, bearded dragons, etc! I’ve got a wide range of experience, when it comes to animals. I’m home during the day, so I’m always available to care for your pets. Whether they need walks, playtime, or just someone to hang out and snuggle with, I’ve got them covered. 🐾💛 I have a large fenced yard and plenty of patience and experience caring for pets. Your pets will be safe, comfortable, and well looked after in my home or yours.
About: My family has always had a family dog(s), and we currently have 3 dogs on my parents acerage - I live outside of Olds now, and am looking forward to owning a place that I can have animals of my own soon! I am comfortable with all breeds of dogs - we have a Golden Retriever, a Bichon Shih Tzu, and a Golden Retriever cross with wolf and another breed. I am active and enjoy being outside in all the seasons! I have flexible hours and would like to have regular furry friends to care for when owners cannot! I would be happy to get to know more about you and your pet! I have a flexible schedule, but do work shift work - so please contact me directly for more information, and we can go from there! I always make sure the pets are comfortable and safe, and have their needs met! I love cuddly pets, but also enjoy the company of introverted pets and seniors who enjoy their own space and doing things on their own time :)
