Meet our Team of Calgary Dog Walkers

Double Certified in Professional Dog Walking and Pet First Aid & CPR

My journey with dogs began in grade 4 when I began relentlessly pestering my parents about getting a dog. I delivered a persuasive speech titled “How to Convince Your Parents to Get You a Dog” for my school speech fest which sealed the deal and led to Bailey joining our family. Though Bailey has crossed the rainbow bridge, his memory lives on as the playful pup in our logo.

Growing up, I watched my parents run their own businesses, witnessing firsthand the impact small businesses can have on communities and families. That entrepreneurial spirit stuck with me and I started my own dog walking company. I began as a solo dog walker and faced the challenge of juggling multiple roles within running a business. I wanted to provide the best service for pet parents in every area of my business so I began bringing on dedicated team members who care for the dog’s and I handle the rest with expertise and enthusiasm, ensuring every dog and pet parent has the best experience with our company as possible.

After founding Lower Mainland Dog Walker, one of the top dog walking companies in BC, I decided to embark on my next adventure when my family moved to Airdrie. This was the start of Northern Paws Dog Walking.

Ryan

DOG WALKER
I’m Ryan, a university student with a love for animals—especially dogs. Growing up with dogs and being around animals my whole life, I’ve developed a deep passion for our four-legged companions. I always make sure each dog gets the attention and exercise they need to stay happy and healthy. I’m also passionate about sports and enjoy combining my love for dogs with my active lifestyle.

Nikki

DOG WALKER
Hi! I’m Nikki, and I absolutely love spending time with dogs! I grew up in northern Alberta with two dogs and loved taking them out to new parks around my hometown. Now that I’m in Calgary, I don’t have any puppies at home to go one walks with, so I love spending time walking dogs around Calgary, making sure they get all the belly rubs they’d like! When I’m not out walking dogs, you can find me flying small planes at Springbank airport.

Jessica

DOG WALKER
My name is Jessica, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. My passion for dogs has led me to become a dog sitter and to foster dogs with my family. When I’m not hanging out with dogs, my hobbies include drawing, camping, and reading.

Adrian

DOG WALKER
My name is Adrian, and I am a graphic designer & user experience designer here in Airdrie AB. I have always had a love for animals, big and small; we had two Bichon Shih Tzu’s growing up, and we went on so many fun adventures over the years. Although we don’t have a dog right now (as were bunny owners at the moment), I do interact with dogs almost on a daily basis with either the neighbours dogs or my parents dog. Animals bring me so much joy and I love getting to know their fun personalities. 
When I’m not working, I like to hit up a round of Disc Golf or go for a ride on the Vespa!
