Walk The Dog | Brand & Website Development
Walk The Dog YYC is a Calgary-based dog walking service founded by Erin, a longtime pet care professional with a deep love for animals and a natural sense of trust, reliability, and warmth. After years in the industry, Erin took the leap into entrepreneurship to create something of her own—something rooted in care, consistency, and outdoor adventure.
She needed a brand and website that would reflect her experience and personality while standing out in an industry full of generic visuals and templates. Together, we created a brand and online presence that feels intentional, friendly, and uniquely hers.
The Deliverables:
Brand Identity Design
Custom Squarespace Website
UX-Focused Content Structure & Strategy
Copy Editing & Support
Responsive Mobile Design
Objective:
Erin came to me with a clear vision: to launch a dog walking business that felt warm, professional, and personal—with a brand and site that reflected the care and experience she brings to every walk.
The goal was to craft a visual identity that stood out in the pet care space, while making the website feel clean, trustworthy, and easy to navigate for busy dog parents. The final result is a brand that feels rooted in adventure and care, and a site that makes it easy to book services and understand what sets Erin apart.
Our Solution:
