Parachutes For Pets - Calgary, Alberta

Kristen V.

I want to sincerely thank Parachutes for Pets for going above and beyond for my dog, Star. It’s only recently that I’ve truly begun to grasp just how much care and support he received everything from medical treatment and special food to a safe, loving place to stay. That kind of compassion is rare, and it’s something I will never forget. I see the love and dedication that went into caring for him, and I’m deeply sorry for not fully recognizing or expressing my appreciation sooner.

Melissa and her team provided help at a time when I had no one else to turn to. I am deeply grateful for their compassion, their sacrifice, and the time they took to care for Star when I couldn’t. I understand now that they were balancing many responsibilities and emergencies, and I never intended to come across as demanding. I was just overwhelmed, trying to advocate for my dog the best I could.

I regret any confusion or stress I may have caused. I realize now that there were things I didn’t fully understand, and I’m sorry if any of my actions or messages hurt or offended the team. That was never my intention.

The work this organization does is life-changing. I will always be grateful for the support they gave to both Star and me. I hope others can continue to receive the kind of help and care we were given. From the bottom of my heart thank you.

I truly wish Star could see the team again someday even just for a visit. They were such an important part of his journey, and I only wish they could still be a part of our lives.

With love,
Star & Kristen.

We recently had the opportunity to volunteer as a team. It was such a pleasure to assist in some small way to an amazing organization. Thank you for the opportunity to give back.

I wish I could find the words to express how grateful I am to have been put in contact with Melissa and Parachutes for Pets, with their generosity and assistance I was able to get my dog the surgery she needed. Before Melissa reached out to me I was so beyond stressed, worrying about how I was going to be able to manage, but after talking to her, getting a tour of the facility, and talking with other members of the staff my mind was put so at ease. I wish I lived closer so I could volunteer my time to give back. I can't say enough good things!

Best organization for Pets around. People were friendly non judgemental and did an amazing job. Thank you for the support when I needed it.

This is Thor in the beginning I was only looking after him for a while to help a friend with cancer that could not take care of him, but things took a turn, and tour became our Forster dog, and if it wasn’t for parachutes, he wouldn’t be here anymore. They have given me all help and support, not just with food they didn’t just help tour. They helped me to be able to care for him so he’s not another dog that he’s been put down. They are helping me to give him a safe home. Thank you, Courtney and Team.

Я пользуюсь магазином этой организации. Раньше можно было на 30$ купить целый пакет игрушек для собаки . Сейчас цены там уже не такие доступные как раньше . За последний год цены очень поднялись , сегодня я купила 4 игрушки за 24$ . Я считаю что это дорого для комиссионного магазина, туда в основном все жертвуют вещи . Моя собака уничтожает игрушки за одну игру, я буду посещать этот магазин реже.

I have never been so grateful 🙏 for someone in my entire life. Melissa helped me save the life of my little dog Lexi and me. This women is truly a walking earth angel. She worked so long and hard to help me. She worked from 9am to 11pm. I wish her a wonderful life. She definitely deserves it. We are so blessed to have a caring, understanding, hard working, knowledgeable warm hearted woman in our world. I will "never ever" forget the lengths she's gone to for me and my little best friend Lexi. 🧡 She will be included in all my everyday prayers. I truly thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️ 🙏 and may God bless you and watch over you and your family.🙏 Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!
Love Carol and Lexi
