Active & Caring Dog Lover

Pet care experience

~ Cochrane Humane Society Volunteer dog walker ~ Owner of one Italian Greyhound dog - well socialized & fun-loving, he can be a couch potato or as active as needed during the day for walks ~ Comfortable administrating medication ~ I have experience in taking care senior dogs, and have a gate at the base of my stairs if they ate unable to do stairs. ~ experience with long term stays up to 3 months Your dog will have lots of attention, care, dog walks and adventures during our time together, whether it is a day-trip, an overnighter or a long term stay. I always ensure the owners get lots of updates throughout their dog's visit and am happy to keep them as active or inactive as the dog needs. Typically walking an average of 5 kms/day, however if the dog needs less active, I am happy to accomadate! I am home full-time so your best friend won't be alone for extended periods. I would love to hear from you and to learn more about your dog(s)! Send me a message with any questions or to coordinate a meet & greet at your convenience. Meet and Greets are done in Riversong, Cochrane. I look forward to meeting you and your fur-baby and ensuring their health, well-being and enjoyment during their stay.

Our dog Abby had a wonderful stay with Amber and Dante. We knew she would as she's been looked after by Amber before. Communication was great, lots of pics of a happy dog on many walks and social time. Highly recommend and will definitely consider Amber again in the future.

Amber is the best!! This is our second time leaving our 14.5 year old lab with her. Professionalism, great communication and frequent updates. Would absolutely recommend anyone to leave their beloved pup with her. Thanks Amber!!

Our fur baby Bailey had a wonderful stay with Amber and Dante. Frequent updates with pictures, lots of walks, play and belly rubs, we were quite happy and so was our puppy! I appreciated Amber’s attention to details, with meet & greet prior and making sure it was a good fit. We would definitely rebook and highly recommend. Thank you!

Information Amber H. would like to know about your pet

Please tell me if your dog is friendly toward small-breed dogs (my resident dog is an Italian Greyhound, he is about 14 lbs and is well socialized with big & small dogs). Is your dog fully house trained? Does he/she prefer to sleep in a crate, in a dog bed or in the human's bed? How does your dog do in the car? Does he/she need to be in a crate during car rides? Does your dog look have any special conditions that I should be aware of? What is your dogs preferred activity level?

A typical day

My neighbourhood (Riversong in Cochrane) is surrounded by lots of great walking trails, easy access to the 3 local dog parks (if you prefer), which allows us to get out frequently and for as long as we need. Dogs can enjoy the comfort of my home and medium sized fenced yard for frequent breaks. If your dog is comfortable on car rides, Alberta is our playground! I love going on adventures with dogs and exploring new trails in Cochrane, Calgary, Bragg Creek and Canmore! I always keep the dogs on-leash, carry lots of water and bear-spray to keep us safe on our adventures. Depending on your dogs activity level & preference, we can do lots of exploring & walking or keep it more low-key and around the local neighbourhood. If your dog frequents the dog parks and is used to being off-leash and playing at the fenced-in dog park here in Cochrane, I am happy to take him/her there. Dante and I frequent the local dog parks as he loves to run & socialize, but if this is not something you are comfortable with, we will avoid during your dog's stay. I have plenty of toys here at home, but feel free to bring your dogs favorite toy or ball to make them feel more comfortable and relaxed during your absence.
