Seeking doggie pals for walks

Pet care experience

I’m a dog mum and dog lover. I’ve just relocated to Calgary from North Van and I’m looking for some doggie pals to take on walks and runs and hikes. I share custody of an 11 year-old German-Collie Cross Service dog (Tango). We (my sister and I) have been dog sitting on Rover since June 2020 under my sisters account, and we’ve both been screened by Rover. I’ve set up an account under my name because we’re so busy with requests that we needed to share the management! Please msg me and I’ll link you to my sisters account for testimonials and to learn more. More about us: Tango is a friendly, well trained dog who loves the company of other dogs. I work from home full time, and therefore have plenty of time and room in our lives to welcome new dog friends. I’m looking to establish long term relationships with local families. Since I'm out with Tango every day, and I'd love to take your dog out for a walk or run as well. I’ve probably seen you in the neighborhood! Our yard is fenced, and large, and fully enclosed if you'd like to drop your dog off for the day. We have a local vet in the area (Delbrook) and are familiar with the local Emergency Hospitals in case of medical situations. I’m an experienced dog and house sitter and very active. If your dog is up for a trail run or hike in Lynn Valley or Grouse or Ambleside I’ll happily take them- and further afield. My sister is also an active person who loves dog company on her walks and runs, and is currently pet sitting for other families.

Elise did a great job looking after our girls! We got regular updates and pictures. The dogs and house look great upon returning home. They seem happy and well taken care of while we were gone. Would recommend!

We have 2 pups and Elise took such good care of them. Elise is very kind and thoughtful and sent us daily pics and updates. We will definitely hire her again if she is willing and available.

Elise is evidently good with dogs, our shy and anxious boy warmed to Elise quickly, enough to sit beside her on a sofa. He showed no signs of anxiety when we got home and seemed perfectly content. We’ll definitely book Elise again.

I adapt to the house rules of my client’s home. Tango is allowed on furniture but I appreciate this is not everyone’s preference. I’m playful and want to play with your dog and establish a good rapport, make them feel comfortable when their family is away.

Information Elise R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know ahead of time your routine and any special requirements. I like to know who your vet is so if there is an emergency I can call them and you. Are they good with children, small or large dogs?

A typical day

A run or long walk everyday near Mosquito Creek or Grouse Mountain or Cap dam. If I can we’ll hit an off leash trail. And I always bring my dog for car rides if I have to make a short trip to a store or run an errand. Just going for a drive is great stimulation and I like to see the reaction to what they observe in the world!
