About: Growing up on a farm with an animal-loving family, it is no surprise I chose a career in veterinary medicine. In 2022, I graduated from Olds College with certificate in Veterinary Medical Reception and started working at a local clinic - where I’m currently employed. I care for various animals of my own, including dogs, cats, birds, and more - many of which who are special needs or require regular care for medical conditions. Working full time in a vet clinic occupies my weekdays, leaving my weekends free for your pet care needs during the day. Availability most days of the week. I live on a large farm with my 4 dogs and 4 cats, plus more. I also work in a mixed animal veterinary practice, making me knowledgeable in many realms of animal care.
“Sierra was great to deal with. Lots of communication and she even brought in my Amazon packages. We had an unfortunate situation with a bird getting into our fireplace and she was also quick to let me know about it. My dog enjoyed all the extra belly rubs. I would highly recommend Sierra!”
About: I have been the go to sitter for family and friends for a long time now! From long walks and quality time with your furry friends. To feeding time and clean up time, I am always happy to help! I have experience with rescue animals and senior animals as well. I’m currently working a full time job from 8am-4pm four days a week! My weekends are always free and I have lots of time after work as well for any pet care needs! I will always put your animal first and make sure they are always in a safe and joyful environment. I will always make sure yards are secure and leashes as well. The most important thing to me is the safety of every pet.
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with an 8 year old Rottweiler named Pablo. As well as 2 cats, Ginny & Alfie! They’re the closest things to children I have, and I love them deeply. I understand the importance of finding someone who will care for your furry family members in the same way! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give your fur babies ample attention, love and the care they deserve. Love the outdoors, especially long walks! I’d love to provide your pets with the same care, love, patience and attention I give my own! :) I’m a relator with a vast knowledge of Edmonton and greater areas. This allows me to have an extremely flexible schedule that can serve me and you well! I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup as well as two cats that keep to their lonesome. A big yard and a calming environment. Can crate as per request!
