I live in a townhouse with a fenced backyard and a playground is just in front of my home.Your pet will live with us as a whole family together. thank you 


! Please note that although we love all pets, we can ONLY look after CATS at this time !

My family and I have always had cats. The cat I grew up with was more of a sibling than a pet, and my current cats are my children. I've had many a cat friend (and occasionally got along with them better than with their humans!), and in social situations, I dedicate as long to my friends' pets as I do to my friends themselves. I've trained my cats to do tricks, walk on a leash, and I brush their teeth daily.

Please make sure to let me know ahead of time if your cats have any preference, special needs, or particular behaviours that I should be aware of; I should be able to accommodate most of these. For instance, I can mix different types of food, adding some water to their food, heating it when it comes out of the fridge, adding supplements/medicine, etc. In some cases, I may also be able to trim claws, clean ears, and the like, if your cat is particularly friendly, too! I have experience administering medicine (pills, liquid medicine injected orally, inhaler, etc.).


My name is Mostapha Atif, and I truly enjoy caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I currently live in Calgary and work in landscaping, but pet sitting has become something I really enjoy doing in my free time. I love spending time with animals, taking dogs for walks, and giving them attention so they feel relaxed just like they are at homeI.  have experience caring for different types of dogs, including large and friendly breeds such as Golden Retrievers, as well as small and medium-sized dogs. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. I also have experience with basic pet routines such as feeding, walking, playtime, and giving lots of attention so pets feel relaxed..

My motivation to be a pet sitter comes from my love for animals and the satisfaction of helping pet owners feel at ease when they need someone reliable to care for their pets. I have previous experience with pet sitting and home sitting for clients, including caring for pets for several weeks at a time. I treat every pet with patience and kindness.


At the moment, I do not require pets to be vaccinated to stay in my home.


I am a caring and responsible dog owner who truly understands how important it is to trust someone with your pet. While I do not have formal professional experience as a pet sitter, I have meaningful, hands-on experience caring for dogs in my daily life.&nbsp;
I previously lived in Australia with my own dog, where I was fully responsible for daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and maintaining a safe and comfortable home environment.&nbsp;
This experience helped me develop patience, consistency, and a strong sense of responsibility when caring for dogs.&nbsp;
In addition to caring for my own dog, I have often helped friends by walking and looking after their dogs when they needed support. Through these experiences, I have learned to adapt to different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and to provide calm, attentive care.&nbsp;
Yes, I only accept vaccinated pets into my home. This is to ensure the health and safety of my own dog as well as any pets in my care. Requiring up-to-date vaccinations helps create a clean, safe, and stress-free environment for everyone.

My motivation for becoming a pet sitter comes from my genuine love for dogs and my understanding of how stressful it can be for owners to leave their pets with someone new. I am able to provide in-home dog care in a clean, dog-friendly space where dogs can feel safe and relaxed.&nbsp;
I charge per visit or per day, depending on the level of care needed.

My motivation to be a pet sitter is my passion for animals. I've had dogs, cats, and bunnies my entire life.
I have 25 years experience caring for cats and dogs. Walking numerous friend's dogs, and caring for cats.
I’m a Dog Behavior &amp; Care Expert expert with a focus on making sure your dog is well-cared for, healthy, and as happy as possible since while you’re away since the dog may suffer from separation anxiety.
As a Dog Behavior &amp; Care Expert, I watch for symptoms and behaviour changes.&nbsp;
My lifestyle is active and healthy and I truly enjoy dog walking and caring for all animals.
It would be a pleasure to take care of your home and your pets and plants while you are away. I’m focused on establishing a relationship for repeats visits for when you need my services again and want a reliable and loving dog sitter, caretaker, dog walker.
I will continue the routine your dog is used to. Walk and feed the dog at the same time every day. When you continue the routine your dog is used to having, your dog will experience less stress when you are way. Routine is extremely important for dogs and helps reduce the stress of having the owner gone.
I offer housesitting and dog walking service. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs, so I walk for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on how energetic the dog is and how much exercise it needs. I can water plants if required for housesitting.


Hi! I’m an experienced and dedicated dog sitter (since 2019), relatively new to Pawshake but certainly not new to caring for dogs. I’ve looked after more than 100 pups of all breeds and personalities, and have been fortunate to receive many wonderful reviews—feel free to browse my photo gallery to see some of the happy faces I’ve cared for!

Our family truly loves dogs, and every pup who stays with us is treated as part of the family. I have hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, and those who need a little extra attention or special care.

Dogs in our home enjoy daily walks in safe and enjoyable environments, such as nearby coulees, community walking paths, or fenced dog parks (always with your consent). They also receive plenty of attention, affection, and a calm, loving environment where they can feel at ease.

I have a passion for photography and love capturing beautiful, memorable moments of each pup’s stay—something many pet parents truly appreciate. For special occasions, we’re also happy to prepare a simple, pet-friendly “birthday treat” if you let us know in advance.

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming your furry family member! 

I am Talvir D and let me tell you a little bit of who I am. I specialize in training big dogs such an cane corso’s, I work with separation anxiety, aggressive behaviour, anxiety triggered aggression, pulling while walking, patience cues, anything and everything correlated with behaviour development. I’m extremely proud of what I do and my abilities to deliver on what I promise I say that very confidently. A lil bit more about myself, I am currently attending mount royal university and trying to complete my degree in Athletic Therapy, my goals in the future are to obtain my degree and become a physiotherapist. I love athletics and the outdoors to be honest anything to do with being active. I myself have be heavily involved in sports from a very young age and just more of a outdoor kid rather than inside playing games. that being said i continued to excel in every sport I played such as basketball, volleyball, and track/field. I have competed at a high level in each of the mentioned sports, I played all through high school and achieved a ton of experience and enjoyed it to the fullest. I personally also am very passionate in the rehabilitation and rehab side of athletics as well as the competition at a elite level. I took 3 years of sports medicine and loved each and every moment of it, allowed me to not only become a better athlete but allowed me to help fellow teammates with injury assessment and rehab. I have been nominated for athlete of the year and continue to peruse basketball at a post-secondary level. I am heavily involved within the community with charity events to help the less fortunate and in the end grow as a community. Taking care of dogs just seems like the ultimate job to have fun and be happy.

The back yard has 3 separate areas all fenced off, main area largest space 6ft fence grassy. Smaller area with 4ft fence and stone ground. And large areas grassy 4ft fence. All areas are for dogs to have their own areas to play and if needed me separated.

Inside carpet in living room just got it steam cleaned so please let me know if your pup isn't house trained. Hallways and kitchen is tiled, basement is also carpet but they won't be downstairs unless it's really hot upstairs and they need to cool off. 

Hi there! My name is Chloe YU, and I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Becoming a pet sitter has been a natural path for me because it combines two things I truly care about—animals and helping people.

My journey with pet care began as a volunteer Cadet Inspector with the Hong Kong Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (HKSPCA). That experience taught me how to handle animals with compassion, patience, and responsibility. I learned how to care for pets in all kinds of situations—from young puppies needing training to senior animals requiring extra love and attention.

I treat every pet like a member of my own family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease while you're away. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’m here to provide trustworthy, attentive care you can count on.

I can provide dog walks, drops in visits,etc. 

Hello, my name is Aileen, and together with my partner Oliver I am staying in Calgary (Tuscany) until the end of February. We both love dogs and dream of having our own one day.
We both enjoy being outdoors, going hiking, and spending time in nature — and sharing these experiences with a dog makes it even more enjoyable for us. During our time here we are very flexible and would be absolutely happy to spend time with a dog, going for walks, playing, and simply enjoying great moments together.
We are originally from Germany, where we already enjoyed taking care of dogs. Here in Canada, we have also gained experience through several weeks of housesitting with dogs. When taking care of your dog, we are happy to adapt to their individual needs and preferences. The most important thing for us is that your dog has a great time. 
We would love the opportunity to give your dog lots of attention, care, and affection!


Howdy! My name is Vanessa, I moved to Calgary in May 2022. I love the mountains, road trips, camping&nbsp; and outdoor activies. I live in Bankview with my boyfriend and our senior citizen dog. Her name is Lili, she's a 14 years old chihuahua-daschund. I have always loved animals and have had a few growing up, cats, hamster, rabbit and dogs.
Me and my boyfriend started cat sitting our neighbor's adorable 3 cats. We loved going there to feed them, play with them, hangout for a bit and clean their litter boxes. She moved away and we miss hanging out with the cats and taking care of them! That's why I decided to become a pet sitter with Pawshake. I&nbsp;have taken care of numerous pets for friends and family over the years.
I currently offer cat sitting with visits available once a day. Services include refilling and cleaning food/water dishes, cleaning litter box, brushing them and playing with them. I will also send photos so you know your fur babies are well.
I'm also available to walk your small-medium dog for 30 minutes.
I would prefer if you're located within inner city,&nbsp; but feel free to send me a message to discuss other options. I'm mostly available during the weekends, Friday to Sunday.
I can't wait to meet you and your fur babies! Please do not hesitate to message me if you have any questions.I don't have a lot of pictures with animals as I'm always the photographer.
Cheers!
