Caring, experienced and reliable!

Pet care experience

Hey there! We are dog minders in Mount Pleasant/Olympic Village area with flexible schedules, as there are 3 of us living here there is always someone around to care for your pup! I work hybrid with 3 days from home and 2 days in the office (Wednesdays & Thursdays), while my two housemates Niamh and Maria both work from home full time. For walks and drop ins, we can accommodate the Mount Pleasant/Olympic Village area. For areas outside of this, we may need to add a small transport fee to get to and from. We will only accept one dog family per day for boarding and daycare (ie. multiple dogs from one home is okay, but we don’t accept multiple dogs from separate families unless they already know each other or are both willing to do meet and greet first). We always strive to make any dogs staying with us as comfortable as possible in our home. We bring them out for frequent walks around the neighbourhood to keep them active throughout their stay and to get them accustomed to the area if they aren’t familiar. We allow dogs free roam unless owners ask us to crate and/or restrict access to certain areas (eg. kitchen, on the bed etc.). Our couch is always enticing to dogs staying with us and we allow them to come join us for cuddles as they please (again unless told otherwise by owners). Please reach out to set up a meet and greet or if you want to see if our schedules match up! Thanks, Ali, Niamh & Maria

Pickle had a great time at Ali's, and was well taken care of. We love that there are multiple people at Ali's place to keep Pickle company, as a sensitive girl with separation anxiety it's nice to know that it wouldn't be a barrier to ensure she's not left alone. We look forward to booking with them again!

Ali and Maria were incredible hosts for my dog, Mia. They sent me tons of photos of her, and in every one I could tell that Mia was happy and comfortable, and receiving exactly the kind of attention she liked. Ali's place is well set up for dogs, and they took Mia's medication schedule very seriously. I was very confident that they could handle any situation that came up. Would book again without any hesitation.

Information Ali M. would like to know about your pet

We accept all dogs, puppies will be at a higher rate due to more care and attention normally required. If your dog requires any additional care, please let us know when booking. If there is any training that you are currently conducting with them, you can also let us know so we can try to assist while they are with us!

A typical day

We can go for short/long walks around the area depending on your dogs energy levels. There is a dog park not too far that we can bring them to if they are comfortable with other dogs. We love to go hiking and would be happy to take any dog along who's owner is comfortable with that (weekends only). If you have any toys and/or games that your dog enjoys, please be sure to pack them in their bag so we can play and have fun throughout their stay!
