“Thomas has been a godsend with a very busy Aussie pup and my older gal. They're at the door as soon as they hear his car turn the corner and are returned happy and ready for a nap although the puppy would follow him home if given a choice.”

About: I’ve always been a total dog and cat person and honestly, I’m the one who ends up saying hi to the pets before the people 😄. I’ve cared for puppies and adult dogs, and I’ve also spent the last 6 years fostering kittens and cats, which has been such a big, happy part of my life. Being around animals just makes me feel like myself. I love getting to know their personalities, their little habits, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Since I have pets of my own, I completely understand how much trust it takes to leave them with someone. That’s something I never take lightly. I’ll care for your fur babies like they’re part of my own family 💛 I am a homemaker and I am free to take care of your fur babies anytime you need me. When I tell you I am there for you, you'll know I will be. I have a fenced yard, 1 very friendly 4 month old pup and an 8 year old kid who loves to pamper pets and has always been around pets his whole 8 years amd has been a great helper throughout our fostering periods.

About: Hi! I've had my cat Olive for 11 years and my dog Bel for 3 years. I have also taken care of close to 70 foster animals mostly kittens, with a few medical fosters, and behavioral issues along the way. I have taken courses on behavioral training for dogs as my own dog is reactive towards dogs, so I am very familiar with dog reactivity. I currently run a small 1 man business from my home and have control over my schedule to provide care to other animals regularly. I also foster other animals from time to time. My own dog is reactive and high energy and needs 3 walks a day usually with a lot of play. My cat is a large maincoon that requires a strict diet and care regimen to keep her pre-diabetes in check.

“Ben is awesome. Totally reliable and did great with our 3 dogs, especially the Belgian Malinois, who is not the easiest dog to walk. He does a great job, highly recommend.”

“She was very responsive and did exactly what she was supposed to do. She was even very friendly with my cat!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for senior dogs, my own pup, Ludo, lived to be over 20 years old, and supporting him through every life stage taught me patience, gentleness, and how to meet the unique needs of aging pets. I’m genuinely passionate about animals and have spent years volunteering at animal shelters, which has given me experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets for years, and I treat every animal like a member of the family. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness truly matter to me, and I’m committed to giving them the same love and attention I’d want for my own. I am currently transitioning between full time work and going back to school online. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I can work around your needs and ensure your fur babies get consistent attention and care throughout the week. I’d love to fill some of my time making sure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved. In my home, pets have access to a safe, fenced yard where they can play and explore. I live with two friendly dogs and two shy but affectionate cats, who enjoy snuggling and playing with new furry friends once they feel comfortable. We have plenty of toys to keep pets entertained, and I make sure everyone feels safe, loved, and included. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their routine and comfort, giving them attention, playtime, and affection while respecting their space and environment. My goal is always to help pets feel secure and happy, whether they’re at home or visiting mine.

About: I have experience taking care of boarding dogs and cats at an animal hospital. I worked for them for a little over a year and have gotten lots of experience with dogs and cats. I used to raise puppies and train them how to sit and have manners for about two years with my parent. I have dog sitting experience and house sitting experience. I also want to note that I am a full time college student, my schedule is below for more information. Just keep scrolling and you will see “schedule” section. Thank you :) I am currently going to school at the UofA full time during the weekdays (my class schedule is listed below keep reading) and would be available most days to come and play with the animals for 30 minutes to an hour in the afternoons and overnight sitting. And on weekends I would be free to play with and walk the animals as needed. Class schedule: Mon 1pm-2pm Tue 9:30am-1pm then 3pm-5pm Wed 9am-2pm then 4pm-5pm Thur 9:30am-4pm Fri 1pm-2pm I do also have a job at the animal shelter for part time. That work schedule will vary but will be no more the 4-6 hours a day. Likely to be on the weekends to avoid conflict with school :) For my personal home, I will not be able to board any pets. Although I am very safe and responsible. My person pet uses a crate just for her safety when I am gone. I am good with crate training as needed for your pets as well. I make sure I clean up after every day and leave the house as clean as I can before you arrive back home to your happy animals!

“Thank you, Sydney. I appreciate meeting you in advance, your punctuality, and your excellent communication. Henry enjoyed his walk.”

I am available full-time to care for your fur babies, which allows me to give them the attention, care, and companionship they deserve throughout the day and night. Don’t worry about your pets having to leave their familiar environment or stray from their routine. I provide personalized care, training, and enrichment for your pets in the comfort of their own home, helping them stay happy, relaxed, and stress-free while you’re away.

About: What sets me apart is my professional experience working at a doggy daycare, where I manage multiple dog breeds, sizes, and temperaments daily. This hands-on role has trained me to expertly read pet body language, prioritize safety, and confidently care for both energetic puppies and gentle senior pets. I also provide dedicated drop-in care for cats, ensuring your feline friends get the precise feeding, litter box maintenance, and attention they need. I am highly comfortable reinforcing training commands, managing leash pullers, and following strict care routines.

Even as a college student with a part-time job, I maintain a highly flexible schedule that allows me to easily adapt to your pet's regular routine!

Just let me know what specific timeline works best for your family, and I am happy to coordinate my routine to ensure your pet is fully cared for. Safety is my top priority on every walk. I always stay aware of my surroundings and follow any special instructions from pet owners. I make sure dogs stay in safe areas, avoid hazards, and get the right amount of exercise based on their needs. Trust and comfort are key, so I take the time to make each dog feel at ease while ensuring they have a fun and safe experience.

About: I have been a pet owner for over 40 years and we share great communication through observing their body language and verbal cues. My dogs are treated like family and are petty spoiled. Dogs tend to gravitate towards me and feel safe around. When I’m dog sitting, I always pay close attention to their body language and make sure that they are comfortable and feel safe in their new environment. Lots of love for pets in my home. I have a very flexible schedule and have the option to work from from which I do often in order for my dogs to have more freedom. I make sure that they are taken for walks and get their exercise in for the day. I have an enclosed back yard which keeps them safe and are able to run around as much as they want. They are able to cuddle with us on the couch while we are sitting watching a movie. My pets get groomed and have great hygiene.

About: I’ve had dogs and some cats since I was around 4. I’m pretty used to working with animals and I love meeting new cats and dogs! I’m pretty experienced and know what I’m doing! I’m currently working part time and if I do work it’s the weekdays from 4-6:30. I sometimes work Saturdays 8-12:30 but I don’t do this very often. I am pretty flexible and available most times. I used to have small chihuahuas at my apartment and we have a pee pad for them and a deck. For larger dogs I would take them on walks several times a day.
