“Alana took amazing care of my two cats and my dog while I was away for a week! I was nervous to leave my dog with a sitter for the first time as he is skeptical around meeting new people and can come off as aggressive. Alana was very patient with him even when he was slow to warm up to her and I came home to a very happy dog/cats and a clean home! Thank you again Alana”


“We had Samantha watch our two dogs and stay at our place while we were away for a week. We were a little nervous to leave our dogs at first but we are so grateful for Samantha and the amazing care she provided while we were away. One of our pups wasn’t feeling well, and she made sure he was well cared for and stopped at our vets to pick up some medication for him. Knowing our dogs were well cared for gave us great peace of mind. On top of that, we came home to a spotless house. Thank you Samantha for watching our boys!”


“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than David for our 3-year-old four-legged loved one! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our pup and home were in such good hands. David communicated regularly, sending lots of sweet photos and updates that showed just how comfortable and happy our dog was. He not only gave our dog exceptional care, but also looked after our home with the same level of attention — watering plants, keeping everything tidy, and making sure we came back to a space that felt just as we left it. It gave us so much peace of mind to know that David treated both our pet and our home with genuine care and respect. We’re so grateful for everything and would absolutely recommend David to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive in-home sitter. - Jakki & Todd”


“Had Catherine house and pet sit for the first time. Extremely happy. Sent many pictures to keep up in touch and the house was nice and clean when we arrived home. Will definitely be using her again.”


“Clearly experienced and relaxed around animals. We couldn’t fit in an introduction before the house sit but Kaela was unfazed and sent us photos of happy relaxed animals soon after arriving. Highly recommended.”


“Katherine took such good care of our dog and our house, it was such a relief for us and made our holiday more relaxing knowing everything was in good hands. She provided regular updates with pictures and went above and beyond to care for our dog and home. 100% recommend Katherine!”


“Emily was so awesome with my Groot. It was his first time having anyone that is not me stay with him. And she did a fantastic job. 10/10 service. I will definitely use this service and Emily again. Thank you for taking such good care of my Groot.”


“Naomi is amazing! She is everything you want in someone coming to stay at your house with your fur babies! She is a great communicator, sending updates and pics along the way. She is very loving to the animals and engages with them - taking for walks, playing in the backyard and even teaching new tricks! Highly recommend!”


“Sarah stayed over and watched our dogs and cat - I would not hesitate to book her again in future! Our dogs have some behavioural challenges and Sarah made me feel completely at ease about leaving them in her care. She sent photos, kept me updated and the dogs absolutely loved her. I am certain they are looking forward to the next time I leave so that they can see her again. Thanks, Sarah! It’s so great to find a petsitter I can trust with my trio.”

“Vicki is so great with our mini bernedoodle, Ivy! Our pup is 14 months old and requires lots of attention and love - Vicki was super attentive and loving to her. We felt totally comfortable with her in our home and knew Ivy would be in good hands :) Definitely reccomend.”


“Joy took exceptional care of our very anxious dog. She sent daily updates and pictures. Our dog was obviously very well cared for while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Joy.”


About: I have owned animals my whole life, and am very loving towards all pets. I currently own a senior cat, and have had experience with energetic dogs. I have pet sit for family and friends, and am very reliable. I am currently in school, and am able to prioritize pet sitting and dog walking throughout the week. I am free weekends and have no problem with overnight pet sitting or evening dog walks, especially for individuals with busy and long work weeks. I am very understanding and can adjust to the needs of each individual pet. I am very respectful of others personal space and will gladly take the time to get to know your pet to give it the best and most compassionate care needed.

“Exceptional Care and Attention We hired Julia to stay at our home to watch our dog while gone for 4 days and we couldn’t be happier with how it went. Julia is a true dog lover- she took the time to come out and meet our little guy before watching him to ensure he was comfortable and familiar with her. Our dog is quite reactive to new people, and we really appreciated Julia’s willingness to go above and beyond to understand his unique personality and needs. This was the longest we have left our pup alone for but Julia kept us updated with photos and messages daily which made our time away for our little guy much easier on us. She took him on multiple walks and got some truly amazing photos of him, he looked so happy! On another note, our home was well taken care of, Julia was clean and very responsible. When we returned home we were very pleased with her professionalism and effort to keep our home clean and tidy. We wholeheartedly recommend Julia, she will treat your dog like family! We will definitely be hiring Julia again in the future. Thank you Julia for the amazing experience and ease when trusted with our beloved pup! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”


“My husband chose Megan on a whim because he had a good feeling about her. He was right! (for once lol jk) Words can't express how much our worries were put at ease with how attentive she was. She went above and beyond. Our cat's nearly thirteen and he's going through some health issues. Megan treated him with as much care as her own-including a visit to the vet's office (twice!) We really appreciated her communication and thoughtfulness. There wasn't a day that went by that we worried about him, so we were able to enjoy our holiday. Returning home our place was even more tidy than when we left it! Rest assured Megan's your girl. We only hope Henry will accept us back now that we're home lol”


About: Animals have been in my life since I was a child. In addition to owning many dogs and cats, I fostered senior dogs through SCARS. My last foster dog, Ellie, I eventually adopted . She was my best friend and adventure buddy. I have always believed that animals are our best friends and in order for them to be healthy and happy they need love, attention, consistency and exercise. I loved walking Ellie and she became well known and loved in my community. I am retired and have plenty of time to give your dog or cat lots of love and attention. My schedule is flexible but preference is given to pet care before 6 pm unless house sitting. All of my animals loved being brushed and having special one to one time with me. I enjoy walking and always took my dog. Safety for my pets was important and I was cautious about introducing my animals to someone or another animal they did not know. I believe I have good judgement when it comes to those who like animals and those who don't.

“Marilyn took great care of Nala..and the house ..She was thoughtful when it came to my little girl. I walked in the house and Nala looked great and exhausted from playtime and walks..Thank you so much Marilyn. I will definatley be having you back to hang with Nala again..you were great😃”


About: I am a veterinary professional that has been working in the industry for over a decade. I am a Veterinary Technologist licensed by the ABVMA to practice in Alberta. I am trained and certified in advanced CPR. I am able to administer medications and provide advice and care that is backed up by real scientific facts as well as my vast experinece in pet care. I am able to care for senior dogs and those that have very specific needs. I am currently available full time to provide all services listed. I am able to pick up and drop off dogs for boarding at my house on the farm. I have multiple fenced in areas on 3 acres of land where individual dogs can have quiet one on one time with me or play with other dogs. I am currently allowing 4 dogs at the farm at one time. I have 2 dogs of my own so my attention will be on 6 dogs only at a time. This will ensure each dog gets plenty of love and attention from me throughout the day! I have cats in the house hold but they are not allowed outside where the dogs will be. I have converted the barn into a dog boarding facility with ample space for each dog to rest and stretch. And 3 acres of room to play and have fun! I have plenty of toys for the dogs but do drop of your pets favourite toys along with their crate and food. I do not allow raw meat diets in my home. I use pet safe products for cleaning and disinfecting and do not keep anything toxic to animals.

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, my first ever chore was to feed the family dog and all my friends and extended family’s households have pets that I’ve taken care of at some point in time. Monday through Friday I am available from 8am to 5pm and I’m available after 10pm on weekdays. I am usually free on saturdays as well but that day can be inconsistent I can do whatever you’re comfortable with. If you have a fenced back yard and usually let them free there, I can do that. If they need to be on a leash to go for walks or need to be put in a canal when I leave I can do that aswell
