I work from home part-time with a flexible schedule that I set myself, so I love the opportunity to go out during the day to walk happy fur babies!

I can pick up your dog(s) and take them for a short or long walk depending on preference; I will make sure there is water to drink, and spare leashes. I can take them to off leash areas if that is permissable, and I have great success with training dogs on recall, and fetch, and good leash walking manners, as well as the basic 'sit', 'stay', and 'lay down' commands. For your feline friends; I'm happy to spend some bonding time with them, cuddling, playing, and of course cleaning their litter, freshening their food and water, and doing a wellness check.
Information martine r. would like to know about your pet
I am pretty flexible with breeds, sizes, behavioural issues, as long as your pup is tolerant of other dogs. If your pooch has been properly socialized, they should be happy getting out with a small group of canine buddies. If you have a doggo that is less social and needs their own walk free of other canines, I can accomoddate that too (there might be a small upcharge).
A typical day
When I have a smaller group (2-3 pups), I love to walk around Mitford Park, and do some leash training, recall work, and basic commands. When I have a few extras, I like to go to different quiet and safe off leash areas where I can let the pooches run, chase balls and/or frisbees, and just be free (this only happens after I have become very comfortable with your doggo's personal recall training and confident they will come back to me every time.

Pet care experience
I’ve had both dogs and cats in my home all my life. I’ve been to many many puppy classes and dog training sessions. I’ve changed many litter boxes, and gone to countless dog parks, and been on hundreds of walks with dozens of dog breeds. I’ve taken pet first aid taught by one of CALGARY’a premiere vets Dr Drew Van Nekirk. I’ve also worked with many exotic animals such as gibbons, MCCaws, parrots, snakes, reptiles, raccoons, and so many more, as I was a docent at the CALGARY Zoo, and Santa Barbara Zoo in California. You could call me an animal lover but that would be an understatement. I’m more of a worshipper .😊😊😊 I look forward to meeting and caring for countless more fur babies through this site, and in my lifetime! I am extremely compassionate.
Reviews
Martine is absolutely lovely. We came back from our vacation to very happy and comfortable dogs. We appreciate her taking such good care of Hank and Aspen.
We were very thankful to find Martine and with our last minute booking, appreciated her availability to stay and housesit our dog while we went away. The feedback we got from our neighbors was they saw that our dog had lots of walks and time outside which he loves! Martine was very kind, patient and accommodating and it gave us peace to know he was cared for while we were away.
