Pet Sitting in Strathmore

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 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, and 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 arr 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 crate is required. Will also depend on frequentcy and relationship built, these dynamics could change over time.

About: Hello! My name is Sara! I’ve had pets my entire life and enjoy caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for cats and dogs of different sizes and breeds, including those with extra needs such as medications. I have one dog of my own named Willow, she is a black lab mix with a lot of energy. While I'm not able to host other dogs at my place, I'm more than happy to take care of your pets in the comfort of their own home. I have a regular day to day job that has me out of the house for 8 - 9 hours a day Monday through Friday. What care routine do you follow in your home? The routine you have set is what will be followed while I'm caring for your pets.

“Always the best service with my pets”

About: I have been a volunteer service dog trainer for the past three years. I have also grown up fostering cats and dogs of all sizes. I am currently working towards obtaining my Canadian Professional Dog Training certification with hopes to start a business of my own one day. This leaves lots of avaliability in my schedule to help care for your beloved pets, while also adding to my experience. **Please note I am only able to offer dog walking and drop in visits at this time** Pets are always provided a clean, safe, warm environment to relax, play and thrive in. They are always given opportunities for mental and physical stimulation.

“Alexandra looked after my kitties with daily visits for a week while we were away on vacation. She sent daily photos and updates which let me know my furbabies were well cared for. Even when unexpected car troubles arose she still found a way to honour her obligations and ensure our kitties were taken care of. Would book again!”

About: I’ve been a loving dog dad for a few years now and an animal lover my whole life. We’ve had puppies to older dogs in our care. Able to handle them with lots of love and care while having loads of fun with them. I am currently working part time job and have lot of free time in the evenings/weekends. I can watch your dog overnight and can take them for walks as well. All my friends and families have dogs and the we all enjoy each others company. I keep my dog in crate throughout the night and take him for regular walks in the evenings/weekends. I can adjust my skill set based on what is required/liked by the dog in that moment. I can understand that pets can get nervous and need some time to adjust and that’s where they find me most comfortable.

About: Hi! I’m Marisa, I’m an animal lover to my core. I have knowledge and experience caring for animals through my employment at multiple pet stores, research, and caring for my own animals. I’ve spent time volunteering at the human society. I have pet sat for friends and family as well as grew up in a home where we ethically bred dogs and provided boarding for dogs.

I have a large fenced backyard. I know of many paths and fenced dog parks near me. I have access to reliable transportation and don’t mind driving around the city for in home visits.

“Andrea was wonderful, extremely responsive and great to communicate with. She helped us out on the Christmas Eve and Christmas Day so we could spend some time away from home. You can tell she really cared for our kitties and took great. Pictures will definitely hire again and recommend.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, especially dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs and have cared for pets of all ages—from playful puppies to senior companions. My love for animals has also led me to work with a wonderful nonprofit in Mexico that focuses on animal welfare, including education and spay and neuter programs for both stray and family pets. I’m currently a student, and spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. When I care for your pet, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. You can always expect regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing, and I take pride in respecting your home and keeping everything clean and tidy. Every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know each one and making sure they feel happy and cared for. As a student who does most of their work online, it leaves me with the flexibility to care for your fur baby anytime you need. I am a clean, respectful, rule following individual, I everyone has different rules and boundaries, I would love to go over them before I come over - so we're all on the same page.

“Hired Brianna to look after my animals over Easter and she did a great job with communication before during and after her care. Would definitely recommend her!”

“Tianna did an amazing job taking care of my two babies while I was on vacation for two weeks. I will definitely be hiring her again in the future.”

About: I (Boris) have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 7. Everything started at my grandma’s house where I used to pet sit her cat which led to me owning a cat and a dog at our house which I had to pet sit when my mom and dad were away. My loves for pets started growing since then and am currently doing it with my girlfriend. We do petsit for our friends when they go away for family vacations and this has been an amazing experience. We do believe with our experience, we will be your perfect pet sitters🐶🐱 We are both working full-time and we are open to working weekdays and weekends too. We are in the house weekdays 5pm till 8am next morning and available in the house all day on weekends. We like going for walks and we can put your pets into our daily evening walks routine. Any suggestions on how to care for your pet or what your pet likes the most, are welcome😊

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, from energetic youngsters to calm seniors. I’m comfortable with medical care like pills and injections, follow routines closely, and adapt easily to each pet’s personality. I’m patient, observant, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—whether that means playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company and comfortable while you’re away. 💛🐶🐱 Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time, flexibility, and attention to give your pet. I’m available for walks, playtime, feedings, medications, and just being there to keep your pet happy and comfortable throughout the day. 🐾 I create a calm, safe, and clean environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I carefully follow all instructions, routines, and safety guidelines, including feeding, medications, and special needs. I’m attentive, gentle, and always keep an eye on behavior or health changes. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet with respect, patience, and the same care I’d give my own.

About: I've been a loving pet owner for over 30 years, ever since my kids were little. Now that they're all grown, I have even more time (and love!) to dedicate to caring for your furry family members. With decades of experience and a genuine love for all animals, I treat every pet like one of my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of snuggles. Whether it's a walk, a cuddle, or special care, your pets are in safe, loving hands with me! Shelly I’m currently working from home. Looking to be able to help care for pets in my home. And provide loving space for them to feel safe while you are away from them. I have a back yard that is fully fenced. I have a large crate of you are needing that to be used and I have a well trained dog that would love some company. If this isn’t something you want other arrangements can be made to have separate areas for them.

About: I lived with a friend on a hobby farm. She showed me the ropes. I learned how to take care of all animals big and small. I am willing and able to assist in medicine administration. I have tons of free time that I’d love to dedicate to ensuring your furry friend has their needs through the day and even when you’re on vacation I work from home, starting up my own business but I have free availability pretty much all day. I hardly ever leave the province and can dedicate as much time needed with your fur babies as you need! I won’t have pets in my home as I have a cat myself, but I will ensure I know where all food, treats, toys and everything else they require before you leave. I will ask for an emergency response plan in the event I need to get ahold of you asap. I also have my own reliable transportation and will ask for the vet you use in dire emergencies. I will also supervise play time as I know how quick everything can go sideways. I also am very clean, if there’s a mess from your pet, it’ll be cleaned. And I have no problem cleaning litter boxes as well.

“Great experience with Felix and Rachel, such a personalized approach! Came back to happy, fed and clean fur babies. Rachel has been very responsive and explained all the details. Thank you!!”
