In-Home Dog Sitting
In-home dog sitting across Calgary (YYC) — a calm, safe alternative to a boarding kennel. Your dog stays in their own home with their own routine while a Registered Veterinary Technologist with 26+ years' experience feeds, walks, and looks after them. Drop-in visits and overnight stays, with daily photo updates.
What It Is
Boarding kennels can be loud, crowded, and stressful. Our Calgary dog sitting service keeps your dog at home — their own bed, their own yard, their own schedule — with a professional caregiver dropping in or staying overnight. It's the calmer, safer choice for puppies, seniors, anxious dogs, and dogs with medical needs.
The Difference
Most Calgary dog sitters and boarding facilities aren't medically trained. Corks Critter Care is owned and run by Corrine Bray, a Registered Veterinary Technologist with over 26 years of hands-on animal care. That means your dog sitter can recognize early signs of illness, safely give medications and insulin, and care confidently for senior, diabetic, and special-needs dogs — care a boarding kennel simply can't match.

We provide in-home dog sitting throughout Calgary (YYC) — NW, NE, SW and SE communities — plus select service to Airdrie, Chestermere and Dewinton.

Absolutely. Owner Corrine Bray is a Registered Veterinary Technologist (RVT) with 26+ years of experience, so she can administer medications, give insulin to diabetic dogs, monitor senior dogs closely, and handle special needs most dog sitters can't.
