Dog Wild Adventures

After I had a few bad experiences at kennels, I began searching for a dog walker/ sitter I could trust with my Cy guy and I was so lucky to have found Melinda. She quickly became a member of our family and has been the most reliable and capable person to handle Cy. I worked shift work and I never ever worried that Cy wouldn’t get his walks and he spend night shifts at Melinda’s house. I knew he was cared for and was with someone who could handle his nature. Melinda even helped us with training Cyrus with me and thanks to her consistency and hard work became a much more balanced and manageable dog. I was so sad after we moved to Calgary because I was never able to find anyone like Melinda. Cyrus loved going for walks with her and the pack, and loved spending time at her house. I am so grateful for all you did for us Melinda and Cyrus loved you and the whole gang so much. In Cyrus’s 13 years, there was only one other person I could trust with him and that was Melinda.

There are lots of people who can walk a dog. Someone who understands your dog and cares about your family member as much as you do is exceptional. Melinda at Dog Wild Adventures is that exceptional person. Melinda cared for Cherry and improved her quality of life for over six years. I trust Melinda completely.

Melinda has been walking my dogs for over 10 years now. She has also boarded my dogs many times in the past. Melinda is reliable, trustworthy and I can easily say that I never worry about my dogs when she is taking care of them - which is saying a lot! She offers a great service with picking up the dogs from my house in the morning (almost every week day) and taking them to the dog park for exercise and socialization. Melinda is very friendly and available for walks/boarding 99.9% of the time. Of note, one of my dogs was diagnosed with glaucoma a few years ago and she is very good at giving him his eye drops. I have recommended Melinda to friends/co-workers many times over and will continue to do so!

We have had such wonderful experiences over the past 5 years with Dog Wild! Our dog Seren went from being shy and reserved as 2 year old large dog, to an outgoing, socialized and well behaved dog! Melinda’s ability to train and work with dogs on an individual basis is reflective in our dog everyday!
Thank you Melinda for all the love and support you’ve given to our furbaby🐾🐾

Melinda is an amazing person! I would never trust the care of my dog to any other dog walker! Sadie and I met her by chance in the dog park one day several years ago and I couldn't walk too long back then so we arranged a time for Sadie to get introduced to Melinda's pack and she graciously allowed me to walk with all of them so I could see for myself just what a wonderful "family" they all were together. There was absolutely no doubt in my mind just what a godsend Melinda was to me! She knows SO MUCH about dogs and can tell if something might be out of place just by watching them closely and will act accordingly if one of her dogs needs attention - she keeps a doggie first aid kit in her vehicle - she is always prepared! Sadie has been gone for 19 months now, but Melinda still keeps in touch and will occasionally bring her two beautiful dogs to me for a cuddle and I love her for it. If you want your dog to be loved as much as you love them, then Melinda is your girl. Sadie loved her so much and would absolutely dance when I said "are you going with Melinda today?" Melinda is a true GEM!! xoxo
