About: After saying goodbye to our 14 year old lab we have a puppy who loves to play. I'm happy to offer pee breaks or play time! I work part-time from home and a stay-at-home mom so between errands and school drop offs I'm free to play with furry friends & tire mine out in the process!! My pets are part of the family and we treat them as such. Your furry friends would be well taken care with me! Pee breaks or playtime, I'm your gal.
About: I work from home, will guarantee 3 walks per day, allow dogs on furniture and bed (if so requested). My medium dog Coco and I look forward to caring for your dog and welcoming them in our loving home. I dog walk daily at morning, lunch and evening, at times exceeding 10km per day. As I work from home, pets are seldom alone and always paid close attention to. As a life long dog owner, your pet is a priority and will be pampered just like my own is. Our home has ample space for close cuddles or solo couch lounge sessions.
“Chelzianne is absolutely wonderful. We are very happy and grateful to have her for drop in visits. She is amazing and very attentive to my dog.. I'm sure Toby waits for her arrival. I will definitely re book again. Highly recommended.”
About: I have experience with different animals from small dogs to larger breeds > 100lbs I don’t have any pets of my own but I have volunteered at animal shelters walking dogs and giving pets and cuddles to the cats I enjoy walking in the river valley, checking out new neighbourhoods, hiking, and taking advantage of any opportunity to be around animals I am currently working part-time/ casual so my schedule varies but I mostly work evenings and have mornings and weekends off. If there is a stretch of time that will be needed, I can accommodate if sufficient notice is given I would ensure the dog is given a long/short walk depending on needs, letting out to use the bathroom and routine feeding. Lots of play time with balls or toys Cats- I will cuddle or play with your cat(s), feed if needed, clean litter as well
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.

“Chelsea takes such good care of my rescue dog, who is super timid. She’s very patient with him and he totally warmed up to her too, which is saying a lot. I know he’s always in great hands.”

“It was so nice to have Kate checking in on our dogs. She send pictures and we got a notification every time she started her visit. You could tell the dogs were very happy and well cared for. Kate were amazing and we can definitely recommend her! Looking forward to use her again in the near future :)”

About: I've grown up with big dogs my whole life, all yellow labs. Maeve (our newest addition to the family), I helped train and teach her tricks, helped with her recall, and we love to go on our summer walks to practice polite leash walking along the lake, and her favorite is in the winter when we go for a walk with breaks to play fetch in the snow. I have always had a deep connection with dogs and find that there are not many dogs who don't like me. I also have experince with senior dogs and know the care and effort that goes into making their day comfortable and engaging even if they are unable to do much! I'm a recent graduate, so I have been job searching and have quite the free time on my hands and would love an opportunity to spend time with any and all dogs that I can! I am very comfortable caring for dogs and reading their body language to understand what they may need. I know that building trust takes time, and I am patient and attentive in creating a calm and safe environment for your dog(s). I look forward to geting to know both you and your dog(s)!

About: We are an early 60 yr old couple who very recently said our goodbyes to our 17 yr 8 month old bichon/havenese Tucker 💔. We live in a lovely area with a huge fenced yard backing onto the St. Albert trail system. I am home fulltime and Craig (dog whisperer) has a flexible part time schedule. We love dogs! With easy access to the parks, dogs who vacation with us can enjoy at least 2 to 3 walks per day! Of course there is always ongoing daily activities including playing ball and running along the rear fence of our yard watching, sniffing and chasing who ever walks along the path! I have had a regular dog walking client for 3 years that will be ceasing in March 25. Both their dogs were large breed and enjoyed a 5 plus km walk 4 days a week with me. I am looking to fill that spot and can provide a reference from their fur family to you! We have always owned at least one dog and we happily spoil others including the neighbourhood dogs who come for their frequent belly scratches! Fur babies staying here are our family members! Being home we love to be active with our furry friends, either playing in our massive yard or while on our great experience driven walks! Every furbaby is treated as our own in a warm and loving environment with the mindset of always putting safety and your pets comfort first!

About: Ive been taking care of dogs my whole life. Ive trained my own dogs. They are now my emotional support. I love training as well I am off work for couple months . I am home full time. I have plenty of time to give love to any dogs ❤️ I have a fenced yard, small dog pool for hot summer and a 3 mins walk from the dog park. Safe and quiet neighborhood ❤️

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.
“Samana was so amazing with my 4 babies! She made me feel so reassured and sent me lots of photos and updates through her visit. If I were to leave my cats alone I’d always rebook with her, she’s also such a ray of sunshine!! If I could give her more than 5 stars I would!”

“Blake has been dog sitting and caring for our puppy ever since he was a baby. Blake is always punctual, and our dog, now almost 7 years old, Rocco is beyond thrilled when they come over! Blake knows how to connect with animals on a deep level and I feel the most confident that Rocco is always getting the best care from them. Thanks Blake!”

About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by cattle and dogs of all temperaments, which gave me a deep, natural understanding of animal behavior. I was raised alongside a Rottweiler/Husky mix and have personal experience raising powerful breeds, including caring for a Rottweiler from puppyhood through its first year. Beyond my personal life, I have a professional foundation in animal care. I previously spent time as a Veterinary Assistant and volunteered extensively at animal shelters and clinics. This background means I am highly observant of a pet's health and comfort, and I am strictly dedicated to following medical or dietary routines. Whether your dog is a high-energy "big kid" or a small, sensitive soul, I provide a calm, confident, and structured environment to make them feel right at home. I am currently a student with a flexible schedule that allows for dedicated evening and weekend care. I am available for overnight House Sitting and mid-day Drop-In Visits. Because I study from home frequently, I can provide plenty of companionship and consistent potty breaks for your pups. I prioritize the safety and security of your home and your pets. I am experienced with high-pressure environments and follow all home safety protocols and care instructions to a tee. While on walks, I am hyper-vigilant about surroundings and keep dogs securely leashed. Please note: I offer care in your home only and am unable to host pets at my location.
About: I own a pitbull chocolate lab mix, hes a rescue and is my joy in life. I've taught him manners and made him many friends, he and I are always in the market for new dog friends! I own a dog so walks daily lots of snuggles and bring him to see his friends almost daily. And the park as often as possible. I live in a house with my dog, we hangout outside, go for walks, the park, and we play outback in the yard, and wrestling, sometimes ice cream treats on hot days!

About: I grew up with multiple dogs and caring for animals has always been part of my life. I treat every pet like my own - with lots of love, attention and patience. I live alone and genuinely love the company, so your pet will get a calm, cozy environment plus plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddle. You can leave your pet with me and be completely stress-free knowing they’re safe and cared for! I work very part-time so I am mostly home or close to home while caring for your pet! I am very active so I love being outdoors for long walks. I live in a condo and there are plenty of walking trails and parks right outside my door. I love being outside so your pup will get plenty of walks and outdoor time. I live in a safe, spacious condo with plenty of room for your dog to roam.
St. Albert dog parents share their Rover experiences
I appreciate how Paula took the time to meet with my dogs prior to taking them on a walk. She was very considerate and asked meaningful questions to gain a deeper understanding of my dogs needs. Additionally, I appreciate the communication Paula provided me with during her drop-in visit.

It was so nice to have Kate checking in on our dogs. She send pictures and we got a notification every time she started her visit. You could tell the dogs were very happy and well cared for. Kate were amazing and we can definitely recommend her! Looking forward to use her again in the near future :)

Vita was amazing with my dog Nube. She walked her twice a day, fed her and gave her the medications. I’m very thankful to Vita as I had to do an emergency trip abroad because my father passed away. Vita even shovel the snow. She did check ins with every visit that showed the map where she walked my dog and how many times she peed or poop. I would highly recommend Vita to care for your pets 💕🐶🐾
