Making Your Dog Feel Safe, Loved & Understood - Every Step of the Way

You’re not just hiring a dog walker—you’re trusting someone with a member of your family. At Walk the Dog YYC, we take that seriously. That’s why our care is never one-size-fits-all. We tailor each walk, visit, and adventure to your pet’s needs, pace, and personality.

Born and raised in Calgary, I’ve spent over 16 years working with pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, even geckos and horses. I’ve managed pet boarding facilities, supported reactive and senior dogs, and helped pet parents feel totally at ease while away.

My goal with Walk The Dog YYC is to offer the highest level of care for every pet, ensuring they receive the attention and enrichment they deserve. I believe there’s no better way to spend my days than working with animals and providing them with safe, positive experiences.

Whether your dog needs a solo stroll or a social trail adventure, I’m here to make their day better—and make your life a little easier.

Plus, I’m the dog mom to three pups of my own!

Because expert care starts with understanding

We tailor each service to the dog in front of us. Some need quiet walks, others crave stimulation. Some are shy, others overly excited. With a background in dog behaviour and a heart for each pet’s quirks, we make sure every dog feels safe, seen, and happy.
