Thank you so much for the care you gave Picky Toes! And we really appreciate how flexible you were when we needed to extend his stay while our condo was being renovated. I know he was pretty shy - he's always hidden at home when strangers came in, but happy he ate the food you put out and finally spent some time sitting in the window hammock you put up for him.

Xavier took very good care of Lucy when I needed to leave for a month on very short notice. He kept me updated on her and sent me lots of pictures and videos while I was away

Really impressed with the experience our princess received. Very happy to have found someone that is so good to her. This is our first time and I’m happy to say won’t be our last. I highly recommend Xavier for your pet sitting needs

I do not know where to start! Nuge is my sweet cat. I love him more than air. Xavier took THE BEST care of him I truly can’t sing his praises Enough. He followed my nuge instructions perfectly. He took exceptional care of my boy. Everything I could suggest to make nuge comfy he did. He made him a fort and had all his fav shows on. The updates were amazing and he is quite the pet photographer. We left with a framed photo of our boy of his time with Xavier and some toys! 10/10 experience please if you are an anxious pet owner he will take care of your animal like he would his own. Thank you thank you! We will be back!

Doggy Day Care • Mar 05, 2026

Xavier supplied Cassie with lots of enrichment activities (the treat puzzle was something she's never experienced) and plenty of indoor and outdoor play. So glad he was available to take care of her.

Schedule

Are you looking for a loving home to board your pet while you travel? Board your pet with me! I am home full-time, which allows me to dedicate my full attention to your pet. I have spent my life around and caring for animals, from walking our family's greyhound to round the clock care of and bottle feeding a stray kitten we found who was just a few weeks old. I am dedicated, kind and love animals. With a large, fully fenced back yard, there is plenty of room for your pet to play when weather permits. And best of all, I offer pick up and drop off service for clients living in the Edmonton area.

Safety, trust & environment

In my fully funished basement dedicated to pet friendly boarding in my home, I use pet-safe products to keep the space clean. If you'd like to take a tour of my pet sitting space, I'm happy to offer a walk through at your convenience. I live with my significant other, Janaya. Together, we are parents to 4 fur babies (3 cats and a dog). Our pets live upstairs. My pet-sitting space is separated by a door between the main floor and basement, allowing me to focus on your pet completely during boarding.

Pets

A typical day

I love to play with pets of all kinds. With dogs, I have a love of playing fetch with puppets of all ages and sizes. Tug 'o war? I'm in! I like to play with other pets, too. Our kitties love to chase string toys and little balls, and occasionally, we break out the cat nip for them.
