Highlights
Pet care experience
Love and care like they’re mine
I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always had a home full of them, dogs, cats, and fish! I worked as a veterinary technician for 10 years back in Edmonton, Alberta, and I’ve also spent many years house-sitting and caring for family and friends’ pets. Whether it’s walking, feeding, cuddling, or keeping them company while their people are away, I truly enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for like my own. Animals have always been such a big part of my life, and it brings me so much joy to spend time with them

Ratings and reviews
Shalaine was great! We have never left our dog before. She made our dog feel comfortable and safe. She updated me everyday. Couldn't say enough good things about our experience!

Thank you thank you to Shalaine for her excellent care of our dog, Chester. He wasn’t eating well before the stay and Shalaine provided him with home cooked meals. She went above and beyond the call of duty. Shalaine’s entire family pampered Chester and kept him very happy during his time with them.

Shalaine was great and took great care of our Winnie. Would highly recommend

Was available last minute took care of my dog really well ensured he had water before she left

Very responsible, did great with a new dog, communicated well. Was able to do last minute

Shalaine and her family are p-awesome! They treat our big boy like part of their family. He loves it there and we get a summary card with photos and details of his day. He comes back a contented canine! We have had paw-sitive experiences with them and hope to continue to use their services in the future - Have a grrr-eat summer! Thank you!

Schedule
I’m a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they need. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or cuddles, I’m happy to adjust to each pet’s routine. I’m flexible with scheduling and can easily fit in visits or walks around my family’s day-to-day.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a large, fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe playtime and fresh air. I’m a stay-at-home mom with two young boys (ages 7 and 3) who adore animals. They love to play and absolutely love animals, especially if there’s a game of catch involved, but I’ll always be the one providing all care and supervision for your pets. Pets in our home are treated like part of the family, with plenty of love, attention, and playtime. Inside, they’re welcome to get comfy and feel at home while I make sure they’re happy, safe, and cared for.
A typical day
A typical day with us starts with plenty of love and attention for your pet! In the morning, we’ll make sure they get fed, watered, and have a chance to go outside. Throughout the day, your pet will have company and care, whether that’s snuggling, playing, or simply hanging out with the family. We also keep a consistent routine so your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away.
