Pet care experience

A pawty your fur baby will enjoy!

We are dog enthusiasts with over 10 years of experience in caring for furry friends, both big and small. Whether it's playing, training, or simply enjoying each other's company, we cherish every moment spent with our beloved pups! Our passion for dog care has led friends and family to entrust us with the responsibility of babysitting and training their own fur babies. As proud parents of a rescue dog, we understand the unique emotional needs that dogs may have. We believe in giving them the support and affection they need to thrive, especially those who have experienced hardships in their past. We are committed to providing the support and care that every dog deserves, with a focus on creating a safe, nurturing environment that promotes their health and well-being. Every dog we care for is treated with the same level of love and compassion as our own, and we look forward to sharing that passion with every pup we meet!

2 enthusiastic paws up! Marcus & Hilary agreed to take our boy, Mr. Bingley, on shorter notice and they were very flexible on what combination of daycare/boarding we needed for about a 9-day period in Calgary. Our dog has mostly had a young friend of ours do in-home dog sitting and has never really stayed with anyone other than just family or friends before, so I was a bit nervous. When we met Hilary at drop-off, she was sweet and kind and our dog was comfortable with her right away. It felt more like I was dropping him off at a friend's place. She was very responsive with texts and sent a ton of videos and photos. Bingley got regular walks and it impressed me that they even did some training with him. Through the photos I could see that he had settled right in within only a day or two and was acting very much like himself. That helped me to relax and know we had made the right choice. When we picked him up, he had obviously been well cared for. I am grateful to have found them and for the love and care they gave our boy! If in Calgary, I would use them again!

Hilary & Marcus were fantastic with Pepper. She definitely enjoyed her stay & we will for sure be booking in again. We travelled out of the country & we were able to relax knowing she was in good hands.

Safety, trust & environment

Your fur baby is in for a real treat at my place! With a fenced backyard, your pup will have plenty of room to play and explore. Additionally, I have a friendly dog of my own who would love nothing more than to keep your fur baby company, whether it's running around and playing or taking a nap indoors. If your pup is in need of a change of scenery, there are a number of parks and a greenbelt near our house, providing easy access to new sights, sounds, and smells. We can take leisurely walks or explore the park's many trails, providing your pup with a chance to destress and engage their senses. With plenty of outdoor and indoor spaces to play and relax, your furry friend will feel right at home in our care.

A typical day

We derive immense joy from spending time with dogs and showering them with the affection and attention they crave. Our positive reinforcement training techniques help us establish a strong bond with these lovable creatures while also promoting good behavior. Taking our furry friends for walks in open green spaces is an absolute delight, as we watch them explore and discover new sights, sounds, and scents. Our passion for dogs drives us to provide them with the care and stimulation they need to lead fulfilling lives, and we relish every moment spent in their company.

Taking the time to get to know a dog before caring for them is always a wise decision. It allows us to better understand their individual needs and preferences, such as any food allergies they may have, specific care instructions for your beloved furry friend, and their favorite foods, toys, and activities. By gathering this information, we can tailor our care to meet their unique needs, which can result in a happier, healthier, and more contented pup. So, it's always a good idea to take the time to familiarize ourselves with a dog's likes and dislikes before embarking on our care journey.
