Michael is the best. Our dogs loved having her here and we were confident that all would be good looking after Sadie and Willie. She feels like one of the family. The dogs are missing Michael. We will use her again when we go away.
Thanks again Michael for the GREAT job!!!!!

About Yeimy

30 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
I'm a proud to be owned by 2 gorgeous large dogs, in addition to my two current dogs I have grown up caring for dogs since I was a child, I have seen them through surgeries, training and puppyhood. In addition to the six dogs that have come and gone in my life, I have cared for 2 cats and I've assisted with smaller critters. I have a passion for animals and just want to provide loving care for your pet.

I have many years of experience with large breed dogs and I currently have 2 lovely dogs in a very small home so my services mainly extend to home visits and house sitting. I can offer health, diet and behaviour managment by keeping up with your current routines.

I love animals, dog especially, and pitbulls are my passion. I will give your pet the same love and affection you do so while you are away they don't feel the stress of your absence. I am employed full time during the day and although this is a source of extra income for me I can guarantee your pet will be lovingly cared for.

7 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
**About me**
I am a full time nursing student at MacEwan and I am just looking for some causual work over the summer. I am happy to stay on during the school year if the schedules work. I will always be available on weekends even through out the school year. I have had pets my whole life, dogs, cats, fish, gerbal, and a snake once. I now just have one furbaby name Lucy. She is a mixed breed i believe she may have some rhodesian ridgeback just based on the way she looks and her personality. I have had her for 7 years and i got her when she was just a pup. I love animals I always have and when I saw this site I couldnt help but think what a dream job this is! So I hope that you will consider me in caring for your pet!

**About my home/services**
I am happy to offer basic check in service that includes feeding, grooming, playing with your pet; transport to or from any location in the city; and walks varying in time from 30 minute to 1 hour. If you are interested in having your dog taken to a local dog park i would like to establish a relationship with the pet first but would be happy too if he/she listens well. If there are other services i have not listed here that you are interested in please feel free to contact me

**About my neighborhood**
I live in grovenor, it is right by stony plain road and the river valley. You can take the river valley path through to hawrelak park and across the bridge into laurier's off leash park area. This is about an hour and a half to 2 hour walk there and back from my home. there are plenty of beautiful homes in my neighbour hoood for shorter walks. In the winter I am walking distance from candy cane lane which can be quite pretty at night.

**What to expect**
Well what ever they like. Most dogs have a toy they are just nuts for. I would try out the different toys until I found one that we got going with. Some dogs love the rope, others love the ball, some love stuffys, my lucydog loves anything that squeeks. So leave it up to them as far as play goes. I will of course also cuddle them, if they like to be brushed ill give them a nice brush! When they are good or they listen well they can definately expect a treat.

**Special rules or requests**

About Nigel

20 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
When you can’t be there for your furry friends, you want to know that someone is caring for them the way you would!
Puppy Paradise Pet Sitting and Walking Service offers extra love and attention tailored to your pets’ personalities. Do you have a high-energy puppy? I love long fresh air walks around town. Is your pooch a couch potato? I’ve got plenty of lap time snuggles ready to give. Does your pup adore playing? I've got toys galore, and adore fetch and tug.

Is your pooch tearing up your socks, shoes? Are they going crazy at home when you're not there? Give them the best remedy... a stroll, a sniff, a treat from Puppy Paradise, and you'll arrive home marveling at the change. You're pooch will be ecstatic, healthier, and your home will remain intact and un-shredded.

Do you love your pooch, (silly question I know) but hate taking them out for those sweltering summer strolls, or blustery winter walks? Do you want to make sure your pup is happy, and healthy even when you're not? Do you have an unpredictable work schedule? Puppy Paradise will be there even when you don't want to be.

Our pet sitting services are far and away better than what you'd get from a kennel. Your furry family is far less stressed about you being away. They get to stay in their own space, and have their own toys/security blankets. They aren't barraged, and bugged by the constant stress of unfamiliar, and possibly hostile, dogs. I tailor my routine to be as similar yours (where your pups are concerned) so that your pups are comforted by the familiar routine. I provide detailed, and according to my other clients, story updates that make them grin.
As regards me staying in your home... ALL my clients have found me to be very clean, and that I took exceptionally good care of their homes. My last client told me that she thought her place was cleaner after I left then it was when I arrived.

Puppy Paradise Pet Sitting and Walking Service offers 20 years of pet caring experience. I have cared for all manners of pooches from tiny teacup to giant sled dogs. I have cared for senior dogs who love getting out but need help with staying clean, and can be obstreperous about taking their medications as well as puppies who are bursting with energy. I have cared for, and helped soothe the fear of abused/rescued dogs. With my care they gone on to become some of the most loving animals I've had the pleasure of caring for. I have dealt with all manner of puppy ailments from the ubiquitous grass grazing to seizures, and everything in between.

Puppy Paradise is happy to help out with other pets, as well--no spiders, please! I can’t wait to make friends with your special pals and share my references with you.

Don't delay... have the premier dog walking, and pet sitting service pamper your pups today!

*Disclaimer - I only do hosting in your home. This does not mean that I have to stay at your home, only that your pooch will. I can drop in as many times as you wish, or stay at your home. I am background checked, and can provide references.

Nigel was fantastic. Our dog lulu is a nervous but she warmed up to him in no time. Nigel gave great updates daily (upon request) and lulu was well cared for. Nigel is very professional and takes his job seriously, and clearly loves it. Or place was clean and well cared for. We already booked him again!

Having Nigel come stay with our Alaskan Malamute, Skoki was great. Nigel is very knowledgeable about dogs and worked hard with us to make sure Skoki's week would be perfect. He sent us daily updates with lots of photos. Skoki loved him and we could not have been happier.

Thank you Nigel for taking great care of Nova. I also appreciate that you have taken care of my house as if it were your own, everything is clean and tidy - so nice to come home to a clean house and a happy puppy!
Nigel is a great guy ! He looks after our dog Maddie so well she misses him when he leaves. Nigel updates us as regular as we request, and updates us with great detail throughout the vacation allowing us to relax knowing she's in safe hands. We can now book trips with out the worry of leaving our puppy at the kennels . Maddie has medical issues and Nigel pays special attention to her. We highly recommend Nigel for short stays and overnight stays. Nigel is a very polite man and very easy to deal with.

Nigel was a great sitter. We were able to meet with him before the appointment and our dog took to him immediately. He gave us daily updates, with lots of information about our dog's day and activities and even pictures and videos. We felt very happy that our dog was having a good time while we were away and best of all, he was happy, calm, well exercised and content when we returned. We will definitely contact NIgel the next time that we are going to be out of town.

About Clarrissa

3 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
**About me**
I have had two dogs, one that was a SPCA rescue that is fairly active with some separation problems and the other we got as an adventurous puppy who has at least stop crewing everything when we are not looking, this pup is not as active as he had broken is leg in the past year and I made sure if medication was given at the right time and that his cast was clean.

**About my home/services**
I am renting a room right now in Edmonton so I can not offer boarding but I can pet sit, walk, and even wrangle a bath and give a nice brush afterwards.

**About my neighborhood**
Before anything I would do all the research about the area in which I am pet sitting, and keep up the routine of walks and even parks if need.

**What to expect**
There will be lots of cuddles, belly rubs and tennis balls chucked. There will be long walks and on the hotter days maybe some visits to the river if your home is near by.

**Special rules or requests**
I have no limitation on what kind and size of dog. Though I would prefer non-aggressive dog because I am not sure I could handle on with the proper attention.

About Morgan

8 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hi there my name is Morgan. I am currently employed in the serving industry which leaves me a lot of free time as I only work 20hrs/week. Looking to fill in some of that free time and I thought why not make some money cuddling and playing with other people's fur babies!? I had to say goodbye to my old girl last February and have since not committed to another dog as I want to travel a bit first! She was my best friend of 18 years and I loved having a senior dog to look after. My current roommate has a 45 pound mix breed pup and a kitty who I love to love up on as well! I also have experience working at a doggy daycare and loved working with so many different pups. I am ok with high energy or senior dogs as I have experience with both ends. I am also ok with some special needs such as medications. I am available for home visits and walking services. If your pup loves to socialize I also love going to dog parks and playing! I however will not accept highly aggressive types, but this is why I require a meet and greet first.

About Alina

6 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hello! My name is Ali. I am a second year student at the University of Alberta. I moved away from home last year, and am at university too often to have a dog or cat of my own! I really miss the playtime I used to enjoy with my own pets in Vancouver, and they are a little too far away for me to visit them regularly. If you have a pet that needs a little more attention than you currently have time to give it, are going away for a few days and would prefer to avoid a kennel, or simply want to introduce a new face into your pet's life, Ali's Canine Care and Companionship is here for you! Pets will enjoy walks, runs, play time in the dog park, the occasional treat and pamper, lots of belly rubs/ear scratches, and a fun, caring friend in me! I have experience taking care of dogs old and young - big and small, cats, fish, and lizards.

About Kasia

12 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hello! My name is Kasia Chan and I am a crazy dog lady (if I could own 20 dogs, I would lol). I, myself, own a little fur baby and her name is Tyra Banks (yes, you read that right. Top Model was VERY popular at the time I got her). She is a senior, 13 years young. She is only 7 pounds as she is a Shi Tzu/Daschund cross. I live in a cute character home with my best friend. I have lots of fenced yard space and a big park/field nearby that I walk to often with my dog and my aunts dog. I have fostered a dog once and it was quite the experience at the very least. I have also watched many family and friends dogs over the years. I, unfortunately, cannot care for pit bulls (even though I love them and am not part of the stigma against), as I had a traumatic incident involving one and my family dogs, so I would feel more comfortable to stay away from that. I hope to provide a comfortable and fun time for your fur baby while you are away. This kind of service is fantastic as I know people get nervous about the idea of kennels (I totally get it, I've heard way too many horror stories). I can't wait to meet you and your fur babies! :)

About Yunue gabriela

5 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
I love all kind of animals but dogs are one of my favorites, i grew up with chihuahua dogs, but i have no preference for a special breed.
For me, there is not danger breed because everything is related with the way we work with the dog, and i truly think that is important that we put boundaries and limitations balance with love and respect.
For me,a fun day for dogs have to do with games,some exercise, but also with social time with other dogs .
One of the things that i like to do before i work with the dog itself is to know a bit of the owner and by that way i can find ways also to develop better relation between dogs and owners.
One of the things that I will do with your dog is to walk at least twice a day :) because that is what dogs loves more than anything :) but also will be able to interact with other dogs friends

About Kelsey

2 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hello! My name is Kelsey and I live with my boyfriend, Alejandro and his mom, Adriana. We have been caring for dogs, cats and rabbits for 2 years. We love to foster animals as well as care for the pets of our family and friends. We would love to care for your pet!

We live in a house in the Hamptons area of Edmonton. Our house has a huge backyard and someone is almost always home since we have our own businesses from home. Our pet services include pet sitting, dog walking, cuddle visits & just about everything under the sun.

Our neighbourhood has many families. It is quiet, peaceful and there are plenty of lakes and trails for walks. We also like to pack up the car and go see many various parks across the city.

Your dog will enjoy running freely in our backyard with plenty of toys to play with. We provide endless belly rubs and TLC, with the occasional cuddle on the couch. If your pet is in need of a strict feeding schedule, or maybe oral medication, we have plenty of experience in that area. We love dogs and cats so much and we look forward to meeting you and your precious pooch.

We don't have a preference on a type of breed or anything, but all we ask is that he or she is friendly and well trained. We would like to meet with you, the owner, first before we start our services. We can also pick up/drop off your pet for you.
