We provide high quality professional dog walking services to our diverse Calgary clientele.
At Runs With Rover, we can relate to the fact that your dog is a loved member of your family. If you didn’t love your dog, you surely wouldn’t hire us to get them out of the house for some exercise and socialization. We also recognize that although anatomically similar, our psychology is quite different. Humans are emotional beings, and we use a combination of communication methods automatically without even noticing. Canines live in the moment (don’t hold grudges) and communicate almost entirely with body language. Instinctively, dogs are pack animals, and they establish a hierarchy almost instantly upon meeting. There is a leader and followers. Our goal is to be confident, calm, and assertive (not aggressive!) to establish dominance as the pack leader right from the start. This is done via subtle body language and the appropriate level of intensity (projecting energy).
Helen’s love for dogs is boundless. With a leash in one hand and a heart full of compassion, she strides through parks and neighborhoods, bringing joy to every wagging tail she encounters. Helen’s mornings begin with a chorus of excited barks, as her furry clients eagerly await their daily adventure.
No weather can deter Helen from her mission. Raindrops dance on her umbrella as she leads a spirited pack through puddles. On sunny days, she revels in the warmth, tossing tennis balls and sharing belly rubs. Snowy parks? No problem—Helen’s boots leave paw prints alongside her furry friends.
Gillian is responsible, reliable, and has a passion for dogs that matches her talent. Our rescue dog, Teela, has benefited from the socialization, routine and exercise of daily pack walks with Gillian. We trust her with our house and our pet every day. She leaves notes about how the walk went and has called me at work if something is concerning about our dog's health or behaviour. She pays attention to details like when we have forgotten to close the bedroom door and Teela will find something in there to chew!
We can't thank Gillian enough for all of the advice and training she has given us over the past 3 years. I highly recommend her services.
