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.
My dog, Sophie, loves everyone but (next to me of course) Gillian has to be Sophie's best friend. It's obvious to see what a great bond she and Sophie have developed. Gillian has exhibited such a great mix of discipline, responsibility, playfulness and affection for all the dogs that she walks and cares for.
I know Sophie is always in great hands and will be well cared for when she is with Gillian. I attribute Sophie's amazing temperament, sociability and direction in part to Gillian who has been walking her since she was a wee pup. With a busy schedule and some last minute late work days or travel requirements, Gillian is always willing to walk or sit Sophie on short notice when needed. Gillian's notes are great and she is always responsive and keeps me informed.
The extra exercise and socialization Sophie gets during the week really does show itself and make a difference and is something I'd recommend for all dogs and their owners. Gillian loves her job and has such a keen talent at it. I'd highly recommend Gillian to anyone - friends, family strangers - to add a little love and exercise into your dog's life.
Thanks Gillian from me and Sophie for all you do!
