A Whisker Away

A Whisker Away Professional Feline Grooming and Pet Sitting I was born in Bowness, Calgary and my family moved to Cochrane in 1984 when the population was less than 4,000!

It was an ideal place to grow up and after a few moves and some eye-opening world travel, I am once again a Cochranite, although the town is much different than when I first moved into Calgary almost fifteen years ago. I am a self-admitted crazy cat lady and an all-around animal nut through and through. My life has been filled with critters of all kinds; from many types of domestic pets to a wide

variety of farm animals, as well as wild and semi-wild animals. I can't imagine it any other way. I am certified in pet first aid and worked for years in veterinary hospitals, both family and emergency. I look forward to adding your furry, feathery and scaley family members to my extended critter family. Contact me today to arrange a meet and greet with you and your pets!

⚠️ Update on Back Injury & Return to Work⚠️

Good News! The pain treatments I’ve received so far have been extremely helpful, and I have an orthopedic consult this week to discuss next steps for possible further treatment.

When I do return to work, it will need to be gradual and paced according to my pain level and recovery progress. I truly appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding during this time; it means so much to me as I focus on healing properly.

If you’d like to add your cat to my waitlist or if you have questions about caring for your cat at home, please contact me through your client portal or at [email protected].💙

I’ll continue to keep you updated as things move forward. As usual, I’ll keep my website, Facebook and Instagram pages updated as I know more!

I actually sing this to my petsitting and grooming kitties all the time (in this exact voice too😹)!!!

Meet Arya!
Arya is a gorgeous girl who is searching for her forever home! She will thrive in a calm household where she can lounge around and be treated like the queen that she is. Arya is a chatty girl who will tell you all about her day, and will purr up a storm when she's being petted. She loves her people very much and is a fairly low-key kitty who will happily be your lap warmer! Arya hopes her new home will have a window-side perch where she can do some bird watching. Do you have the perfect place for this gentle kitty?

My Story

I was born in Bowness, Calgary and my family moved to Cochrane in 1984 when the population was less than 4,000! It was an ideal place to grow up and after a few moves and some eye-opening world travel, I am once again a Cochranite, although the town is much different than when I first moved into Calgary almost fifteen years ago. I am a self-admitted crazy cat lady and an all-around animal nut through and through. My life has been filled with critters of all kinds; from many types of domestic pets to a wide variety of farm animals, as well as wild and semi-wild animals. I can't imagine it any other way. I am certified in pet first aid and worked for years in veterinary hospitals, both family and emergency. Currently you can often find me caring for pets in their own homes all over Cochrane and grooming felines out of my home salon. I look forward to adding your furry, feathery and scaley family members to my extended critter family. Contact me today to arrange a meet and greet with you and your pets!
