I got memorial paw prints from Sabrina, and my experience was absolutely amazing! I felt comfortable the entire time, she was very professional and wonderful to talk to. Before starting she made sure the tattoo was exactly what I wanted and placed perfectly. She explained the aftercare thoroughly and made sure I was prepared. I'm very, very happy and definitely will go back!

BOOK WITH SABRINA!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 100000/5 stars — if that were possible I cannot say enough incredible things about Sabrina at Atticus Tattoo. This tattoo is a memorial for my cat, Cleo, who passed away in November. I got her when I was 12 years old, and she truly was my world. She was there for me through every stage of growing up, every hard moment, every quiet moment. She saw me start and graduate high school, meet the love of my life, start university, get my degree, get married, starting my career, anything and everything— she was there. When she passed, it was debilitating. I knew I wanted to memorialize her in a way that was meaningful, permanent, and worthy of the love I had for her. I live in a rural area, so I spent weeks researching. I searched through dozens of shops, artists, and portfolios across multiple cities. I thought I had found “good enough” a few times… and then I kept searching. Everything changed the moment I found Sabrina. Her work stood out immediately — not just technically, but emotionally. I knew instantly she was the artist I could trust with something this important. From start to finish, the entire experience was exceptional. The consultation process was thoughtful and thorough. Booking was easy and stress-free. The front desk staff were kind, welcoming, and professional. From the moment I walked in, I felt cared for — not rushed, not treated like “just another appointment.” Sabrina took the time to truly understand what Cleo meant to me. She sized the tattoo perfectly, designed it with intention, and captured my girl in a way that feels so real it honestly takes my breath away. During the entire 3-hour tattoo, she was gentle, patient, and incredibly attentive — checking in often, offering breaks, water, and making sure I was comfortable every step of the way. She answered all of my questions and concerns thoughtfully and never once made me feel silly or rushed. And the final result… I don’t even have words. It is beautiful, emotional, and perfect. She didn’t just tattoo a cat — she honored my Cleo. Having her on my body now is a deep source of comfort, and it feels like I get to carry a piece of her with me always. Sabrina gave me a gift that is just as beautiful as my girl was when she was alive, and I will be forever grateful for that. If you are looking for an artist who is not only immensely talented but also compassionate, patient, and truly invested in their work — Sabrina is the one. I would trust her again in a heartbeat, especially with something meaningful. Thank you, Sabrina. Truly. 🖤

My friend and I were celebrating her 50th birthday and decided to be spontaneous and get a tattoo! From the initial email contact, to confirming our next day appointments to the final results, I was extremely impressed with the professionalism, spotless tattoo shop and amazingly talented artists!! I had the pleasure of working with Jessica, and couldn't be happier with my new ink!! She took my inspiration and adapted it to exactly what I was hoping for in a fine line tattoo. I would definitely recommend Atticus to anyone looking for a new shop! Thank you! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I went to Atticus three times in the past week. I saw Jessica once and Brandon twice. I highly recommend this shop. They do incredible tattoo work. I got simple 2x2 tattoos on my wrist and two on my hand. I’ll definitely be visiting again the next time I am in Calgary.

Did a walk-in tattoo and got it done by Mike. He did such a great job with my tattoo! Very professional and easy to talk to. The studio was also very clean and the staff at the front desk were also very kind and accommodating! 😊 (Edit) Went back a week later to get an ornamental tattoo done by Janina! She did an amazing job with her fine lines and added her own touch to it. She was also very knowledgeable when it came to deciding which shade of red I should use and she works fast! 😊
