Welcome To Paws Away

Whether for a few hours, a night, or a day, we're your dog's cozy getaway!

About Us

Hey there, fellow pet parent!

Hey there, fellow pet parent!
As fellow dog owners, we know how tough it is to find the right place for your furry family member when you’re out of town, on business, or on vacation. Even the best boarding facilities can leave the bravest dogs feeling anxious and scared. At Paws Away, we provide your dog with a comforting “home” feeling, like their very own vacation house.

It helps you feel rest assured that while you’re away having fun, your dog is having the second best time possible…because nothing truly replaces the joy of being with you, but we make it a pretty close call😉

Our Promise

Our People

We strive to build a long-term relationship with both humans and doggies! Therefore, we spend a bit more time up front to get to know you and your pup to ensure everyone is comfortable with what and how we do things.

Top-Notch Standards

We only hire the most responsible and dedicated individuals—think dog whisperers with a knack for professionalism. With diverse experience in volunteering at animal rescue organizations, fostering, shadowing dog trainers, etc, they’re ready to tackle anything from decoding canine behavior to mastering our top-notch care protocols.

Tailored Attention

Your pup gets the VIP treatment with personalized care from our devoted team, tailored to their unique quirks and preferences.

Heartfelt Care

We're not just dog sitters—we’re passionate pet parents, too! Your dog becomes part of our family while they're with us.

Our Services

Overnight Retreats

Our signature home away from home where your dog can indulge in comfort, security, and personalized attention. From sunrise to bed time, our enriching activities and personalized care creates an environment where your pooch can unwind, play, and feel truly pampered. With exclusive overnight stays that truly put your pup first, I make sure that your furry family member becomes the center of attention, relishing in all the belly rubs, ear scratches, and playtime they could ever wish for.

Personalized Pampering

We know that a clean dog means happy pet parents. If your pooch gets a little dirty while playing outside or enjoying a hike, we’re the experts at making bath time fun (peanut butter helps). Your furry friend will feel at ease, just like you, knowing they’ll return to you as a clean and happy pup!

Outstanding Dog Boarding Service!We couldn’t be happier with Olga’s exceptional dog boarding service! We’ve left our pup with her a few times now, and each experience has been absolutely fantastic. Olga runs a well-organized, professional business, and it’s clear how much care and attention she puts into every detail.Our dog always comes home happy, healthy, and well taken care of, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. Olga has a special way with dogs—her genuine love for them shines through in how she interacts with them and ensures they’re comfortable and content.We highly recommend Olga’s boarding service to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and top-notch place for their furry family member. Thank you, Olga, for treating our pup like one of your own!

Olga and Alex took care of our dog while we were on a 2 week holiday and she had such a great time! We got tons of photos and videos every day and it was so nice to know she was happy and having fun while we were away. Would definitely recommend Paws Away 😊
I am so happy I know this place ! Can’t say enough good things about the owners and the way they take care of my dog. The fact that it is happening in the “regular” house, small vey well controlled number of dogs, attention, no cages, regular reports. And my dog runs there with a lot of joy and comes home happy. I know I have a great place for just a play date, unplanned busy day or a vacation without guilt.Recommend!

Elly loves it when she stays with Olga and Alex. Olga has also been great with helping me getting Elly out when I’ve been under the weather. I can’t recommend paws away enough!

As a dog mom to an active, 6 months old Border Collie, that is in the middle of most important training period, I was very anxious about his boarding experience. However Olga exceeded all expectations and provided my pup with amazing experience that, in the end, my only worry was that he will not want to come back home after his full week retreat at Paws Away.You get the possibility to meet & greet to discuss your dogs needs and behaviour; at Paws Away they will follow precise instructions on how/when to feed your dog and maintain his regime. And then that playtime! Lots of activities, socializing with other dogs, daily walks, including dog parks (if you allow), followed by multiple updates per day with photos and videos.Absolutely professional attitude towards all dogs, with so much love, care and responsibility!Extra attention to supervise the puppies...well, because we all know how they can be.I would absolutely recommend Olga and Paws Away. Forrest is a client for life!Zhanna& Paul Huisman + Forrest

Olga and Alex took fantastic care of our dog for two weeks while we were away. They were very professional and organised ahead of each of our planned dog-sitting occasions and have kept my husband and I up to date via WhatsApp where we get photos daily of how he’s doing, how he’s interacting with other dogs at their house and their trips to the dog park and/or walks. We had full confidence and trust that our dog was in wonderful hands with this crew, and we actually thought he might have a hard time coming home after all of the love and attention he was given. Wonderful experience, will certainly go with Paws Away again in the future, have made several recommendations since going with these folks and will continue to. A few of Alex’s action shots that we received while overseas attached!

Leaving Poncho with Olga and her husband for a week turned out to be a fantastic experience!From the get-go, Olga showed immense dedication by sending us her detailed intake forms that covered everything from Poncho's dietary needs and play preferences to his medical and behavioral history. The high level of detail reassured us that Poncho was in good hands.Olga's communication was impeccable, providing us with updates on how Poncho was doing. Also, as a great bonus, starting from the moment we stepped out of the door leaving Poncho behind, we received many great quality photo updates, showing us just how much fun he was having. Olga made sure he was never bored, taking him on plenty of walks and to the dog park for some playtime with other dogs, there was plenty of socializing and playing to his heart's content.When clarification on Poncho's needs was necessary, Olga didn't hesitate to reach out promptly, asking for details like the best arrangement for his daytime rest. Poncho’s meal/dietary needs were met and exceeded. By the time we came to pick Poncho up, we half-joked that Poncho might prefer staying on his vacation at Olga’s than coming home with us! Seriously, that was my only concern.In all, our doggie has had the time of his life, leading us to even consider bringing him back for visits just for the socialization at Olga’s care, even when we're in town.Olga proved to be an incredibly responsible and caring dog sitter. She genuinely loves dogs and is passionate about what she does. Calgary is indeed lucky to have her, and we can't recommend her highly enough.If you're looking for someone to take care of your dog as if it were their own, Olga is the person to go to. I wouldn’t be looking anywhere else.
