About: I've working with all types of animals, even lions + tigers in South Africa. In my early 20s I specifically worked with dogs, running a dog daycare/training facility in Calgary while I studied pet nutrition. I have a 135 pound bear of my own, Titus, who survived parvo as a puppy and I have 2 cats. I have experience taking care of sick animals that require medication and pets with behavioural issues. I love them all the same and am very confident in my abilities to take the best care of your pets. I am self employed and work from home so my schedule is wide open. My dog isn't overly active and doesn't need/want more than two 20min walks a day so I'm looking for more ways to get out of the house during the day. I have crate trained my own dog, though he no longer requires it. I don't have a fenced yard and my dog is off leash trained. My cats are indoor but enjoy their outdoor catio during the day that u built for them.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Sylvan Lake
Tamara was fantastic! This was our first time using Rover and were a little unsure of how it would be but Tamara blew our expectations out of the water! She took care of our two cats so well and was so kind and compassionate with them. Our one is super timid and shy and she took her time with him during her visits. I can't recommend her enough!
Bailey provided a drop in service for my 2 cats while I was out of town. He cleaned my cat water fountain and made sure the food dish was topped up. I highly recommend Bailey if you are looking for somebody to take care of your fur babies. Very quick & responsive to my message and last minute booking.
Addison helped us out huge during our vacation and planned extra visits when our auto feeder stopped working. We appreciated all the photos she sent as well as open communication. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking as she takes such good care of our pets. Thank you again!
