No forms, no fuss. Just text me.

What to put in your text

Anything helps, but these make it easy to get you a quick answer:

Your pet's name (and breed, for bonus points)
The dates you need a hand with
Which service: walks, drop-ins, company, or overnights
Your neighbourhood
Extras, if you'd like them: a portrait, a house clean

no need to be formal. a quick hello and your pet's name is a perfect start.

Where I roam

Based in SW Calgary near Chinook Centre, happily roaming to nearby neighbourhoods.

Neighbourhoods I'm in most: Haysboro, Kingsland, Kelvin Grove, Chinook Park, Eagle Ridge, Bayview, Meadowlark Park, Windsor Park, Britannia, Elboya, Altadore, Lakeview, North Glenmore Park, Oakridge, Palliser, Pump Hill, Braeside, Southwood, Fairview, Acadia, and Willow Park.

Not sure if you're in range? Text me anyway. I'm flexible, and the map is (clearly) not to scale.
