Dog Boarding in Courtenay

“Once again our doodle stayed with Andrew and Dianna while we vacationed in the sun. This was Ivy’s first extended stay (2 weeks) and we were confident Ivy was cared for and treated like one of their dogs. Lots of pictures and videos kept us informed everyday. I think she learns a lot about and from other dogs and how to socialize while she is with them. She was happy to see us but I know she’ll be excited to go back for another visit soon.”

“Amber was so great with our dog! We had amazing pictures of their adventures together everyday and honestly my dog seemed very happy and healthy in her care! Amber made sure our dog was given special attention each day and you can see how much she loves animals! I would 100% book Amber again!”

“Krystalyn did a great job looking after our choc lab. She had him for over 2 wks and the pup came back tired and happy :) We will be coming back :)”

“Jay did a great job sitting my Bernedoodle Tobler , it was Toblers first time away from home for this long 2.5 weeks and it sounds like he had lots of fun with Jay and playing with other dogs that Jay was sitting . Jay kept me up to date daily either with pictures or messages so I knew what was going on which was great . I could see he was very happy when I collected him and he has settled back into life at home no problem . So happy and I would definitely use Jay again in the future .”

“Jim and his family did a wonderful job looking after Stella! Jim very kindly accommodated us on short notice, was very friendly and communicative, and stayed in regular contact during Stella's stay. Stella came home looking happy and energized. Wouldn't hesitate to have Stella say over again!”

“Maude took excellent care of our pup Mobie while we were away on vacation and she sent me daily updates of all their adventures. 100% would recommend!”

“Dana is an excellent sitter! My schnauzer had a great time. She usually has some anxiety in a new place, but she seemed very relaxed and happy with Dana. We will definitely be going back!”

“Avery took excellent care of our pup Goose for the weekend. He is happily exhausted now! she was super easy to communicate with and arrange timing for meeting, drop-off and pick-up. Avery's dog Scout is friendly and welcomed Goose. Avery shared lots of photos of their outdoor adventures and made sure there was plenty of exercise, fun, and positive training experiences for our pup. While he was happy to see us, he was not in a hurry to come home as he was having a great time. I would highly recommend Avery as a caring, responsible, fun, and energetic pet sitter and plan to call on her again as needed. Thanks Avery for taking such good care of Goose!”

“Carol took good care of Aila. Aila had a good time playing with their dog in the fenced yard and I got pictures and updates about how she was doing. Carol is good in communicating I would definitely bring her again.”

About: I’ve had my own dogs for over 14 years now and have been a pet sitter for family and friends. I work part time and I am in school remotely through UBC. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a time that works for you! I would love to walk dogs and drop in if they needed to be fed or let out and just given love! I have grown up with dogs my whole life absolutely love them! I am very happy to walk or run with the dog as much as needed as I’m a student at UBC taking my degree remotely. I have a fenced in yard on 2 1/2 acres with two small friendly dogs to keep your dog company. There are no children in the house but I do live with my parents and my sister.

“Great service and fantastic experience. Good communication throughout. We were sent many pictures of our pup settling in and out on walks. Very professional and friendly people. Highly recommended.”

“Stephanie has been caring for my dog for 2 years now. I have been beyond satisfied with her services and is the only person I trust with my four-legged friend. I don't know what I would do without her!”

“Jen was FANTASTIC! We got tons of updates on V and she kept him very active for us and was able to socialize him with another dog too. Jen not only sent update pics, but was very quick to respond to any questions we had, and she was very helpful with a last minute schedule change. I absolutely recommend and will be using her again!”

“We were thrilled to have Sarah & her family care for our dog. You can tell she genuinely cares for the dogs and provides such a fun and loving space for them to roam and play. We received photo updates every few days and we knew our dog had the best time when he moped the entire day after we picked him up. We would recommend Sarah to anyone in a heartbeat!”

“Dana was so great to deal with! We had some back and forth about pick up time as our schedule changed last minute and she was lovely about it. We will be asking her to watch our boy again for sure! ?”

“Paula has taken care of our high energy dog in her home on multiple occasions while we’ve been on holidays and she’s also come to check in our senior cats who have medical needs in our home. We always know that our fur babies are in good hands with her, she’s calm and patient and our dog always gets a lot of exercise while in her care. Would highly recommend!!”

“Kristen and crew were amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better doge sitting team. Ziggy had a great time and I will definitely be bringing him back the next time I have to go out of town.”

About: I have taken care of dogs of many kinds since I was 8, and worked with my parents to train my 2 dogs who are now both 7. I have cared for neighbours, friends, and family dogs including walking, feeding, playing, continued training, and of course petting. I have experience with senior dogs as well as puppies and all ages in between! I am currently taking a couple classes at NIC which are all roughly an hour / day Monday to Thursday and work a part-time job Friday and Saturday morning which leaves plenty of free-time to play with your pups! I am available any night for house sitting/overnight care and any day for walks! Trust and comfort is important to me and I will do my best to follow your pups regulars to ensure they are feeling comfortable and familiar.

“We simply couldn’t have hoped for a better dog-sitter for Juno. Susan has a calm and positive demeanor which is exactly what our dog needed after being in a very busy household and somewhat traumatized / fearful. Susan lives in a beautiful and serene area, fantastic for walks which your dog will undoubtedly appreciate. We loved receiving updates and photos from our pet which meant so much for us. Susan was also wonderfully flexible and accommodating when we had to prolong the dog’s stay by a few days. We are so grateful to have found her 💕”

“Sherri does not just watch doges she loves them like they were her own. Our 14-year old Maltese had a great time. She send pictures and texts to let us know he was happy. She is flexible in case something comes up like a delayed flight or last minute change in plans. I would recommend Sherri to everyone who wants their dogs being loved while they are away.”
