Things to bring: - leash - collar and/or harness - food

A typical day

A typical day with me includes lots of attention and cuddles. I am naturally an early riser, and do 3 walks per day. I have an automatic water dispenser to keep them hydrated and luxurious pet beds/blankets for your pet. Your dog will get plenty of attention here!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Malaika, I’ve had the privilege of being a dog owner for 14 years. During this time, I developed a deep understanding for the love and care that our furry friends require! My passion for dogs and my experience as a dog owner can be channeled into providing care and companionship for your pup. Working from the comfort of my own home, I can provide a safe and luxurious haven for your beloved furry companions. I am located downtown Calgary and I have a spacious condo with large patio for your dog to play around in a relaxed environment. I can provide lots of dog toys and treats! Please note: I can not offer any pick-up/drop-off services and I can only watch small dogs in my home up to 15lbs.

Malaika really helped us out last minute when our dog was denied boarding and we were unable to take her on our planned vacation. She even made time to do a meet and greet right away! We really appreciated the photos and videos she took of our dog and sent us. Our dog had some medications and Malaika was great in administering them and having our pup looked after. Really appreciate her help!
