About: I have had animals in my home since I was 7 years old. I have had a variety of different animals, and along the way they have all left an imprint on my heart in there own way and have taught me many lessons. I currently live on a farm, and have many animals and experience with many different types of animals. I have taken two training courses, and now train all our own animals. I have also fostered in Calgary for 8 years before moving to the farm. I have specialized in rehabilitation, shy, abused, fearful, and neglected animals. I give these animals grace, a loving, soft and caring place to be able to find forever homes, and in some cases my home was home. I have had seniors, wounded, babies, and sick animals in my home. We have also had new births and babies on the farm. I am truly meant to be taking care of animals, definitely my calling. Now that my kids are grown I left the school system, and I am getting back to what I love. This along with my farm are my commitments. I can devote all the time needed to care for your fur family as required. I have a fully fenced 2 acre area for dogs to play. I do have a heated shop, and outdoor run available, that always are accessable. I have rooms in my home that when we take in dogs it's designated their space. Free roam is all day when home. But unless I need to leave, for the safety of your animals, a round wire area is designated for your pet. Will also depend on frequency and relationship built, these dynamics could change over time.

About: ** No longer taking reservations for 2018 - I work with dogs professionally. What started as a part time job has quickly changed my whole life- dogs are it now. I have experience with rescue dogs, seniors, tiny tiny toy breeds, special needs dogs (deaf, blind, epileptic), giant dogs and even aggressive dogs (I have the scars to prove it) I’m happy step in as a surrogate pet parent for anyone because I know this is my calling. I would never give service I wouldn’t accept for my little one. Dogs become members of your family and that’s how I will treat them, the same as I treat my own or my clients at work. I find that every dog has something special to offer and just need the right person to make them feel comfortable.
About: Hi! I’m a proud maltipoo mom to my sweet boy, Romeo 🐶 He loves other dogs just as much as I do! I would absolutely love the opportunity to care for your fur baby and will treat them like one of my own. I’ve looked after multiple dogs before and feel very confident handling different personalities and situations. Having raised Romeo myself, I’m attentive, patient, and always prioritize safety, love, and lots of playtime. I can’t wait to meet your pup! 💛 I work from home, so your pup will always have company and supervision throughout the day! 🐾 I also have a maltipoo named Romeo, who is friendly, playful, and used to being around other dogs. Since I’m home, I take regular breaks to walk and play with him, and I’ll happily include your dog in all the fun. I finish work at 3 PM, which gives me plenty of time in the afternoons for longer walks, playtime, and extra cuddles. Your dog will get lots of attention, love, and care in a safe, calm environment! 💛 I live in a condo that’s dog friendly and live very close to a dog park. As a pet owner I always ensure the house is clean and floors are spotless.
“Gabriella saved my day! I needed a last minute walk done and she accepted. Gunner was very happy and content when I got home and Gabrielle was wonderful, sending pictures and great communication.”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs and cats in my life for over 50 years and have an amazing ability for having them relate to me. I am only working a full day on Friday's and my husband works out of a home office so I am very flexible regarding availability. I live on an acreage with a fenced yard and two friendly Maltese dogs and a dog friendly cat named Nigel. Dogs names are Maggie and Monty.
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine love for animals and my firsthand experience as both a pet owner and pet sitter. As a previous pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and caring to look after your pets. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, administering basic care, providing companionship, and maintaining their routines to help them feel comfortable while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their personality, needs, and preferences. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their furry family members are happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. As a rotational worker, I have two weeks off at a time, which gives me the flexibility and availability to dedicate quality time to caring for pets. During my time off, I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals through dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits. Having been a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of maintaining consistent feeding, exercise, play, and companionship routines to keep pets happy and comfortable. I tailor my care to each pet's needs and the service being provided. For dog walking, I ensure pets get safe exercise, fresh water, and plenty of attention. For drop-in visits, I follow the owner's instructions for feeding, medication (if required), litter box cleaning, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. For pet sitting in a client's home, I maintain the pet's normal routine as closely as possible to reduce stress, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, and lots of affection. As a former pet owner and experienced dog and cat sitter, I understand the importance of reliability, patience, and keeping owners updated on their pet's well-being.
