Dana was amazing! She helped my dogs settle right in and kept them happy and healthy over an extended visit. I had great peace of mind knowing that the dogs were well cared for

Dana did everything to help my dog feel comfortable. I appreciated frequent updates and communication. She was kind to give extra dog treats to take home with us.

Dana took amazing care of my 1‑year‑old shih tzu. I was so nervous leaving him for the first time, but she made everything easy and comforting.

Dana was great. Very understanding and supportive. It was our first time using rover and I was nervous. We met ahead of the booking and was immediately feeling comfortable with leaving our dog. If needed in the future, will book again.

Naya always has a blast! We love getting updates and pictures/videos of how she is doing. Dana is super communicative and clearly knows what she’s doing. Naya comes home incredibly happy each time. Thank you!

Schedule

Congrats!!! You’ve made it this far! I am an animal lover all around! My son and I have 3 seniors and one 4yr old service dog. We are no stranger to any type of behavioural issues you may have! I am working towards a sanctuary/rescue boarding facility! If you are looking to add an addition to your family, let me know! I like to think that my family and I don't offer just a boarding service, but a vacation time to our furry friend. If we go on vacation they can too!! I am a pet lover, I like them all in colour, shapes and personalities.

Safety, trust & environment

Over the past 20 years, I have been highly active in rescue. Doing so I have learned much about myself but more about dogs. I have taken many training courses as well as attended many seminars with different type of training techniques. I personally know how hard it is to find a place you know and trust. Our first priority is safety. I believe in positive reinforcement training for dogs of all behavioural levels and breeds. We welcome dogs with issues from fear, aggression, prey drive, dogs with issues walking, xlarge breeds, pack walks, and of course balanced dogs too! .

Pets

A typical day

Morning- Everyone goes out one by one, to make sure everyone's poops are a-OK. Feeding- Everyone gets fed separately, to avoid guarding and allergy issues. (unless they need a buddy to encourage them to eat) 100% access to water. Rest- Before everyone gets too ramped up, we give time to digest some food! Walks/Play groups- All pups get their first walk of the day, and off leash play groups (if permitted) in a fully fenced yard area(weather permitting). Relax time- All dogs are given ample "chill out time" between play times More play time- Every day is different, from mind games to treat training to treadmill work. Dinner- Same rules as breakfast. As well if a dog needs lunch they will receive it at the correct time. Digest time before evening walks. Walks- Pee/poop before bed. Sleep- Every dog will be separated from each other(unless from the same household) for safety reasons. All dogs are placed where they are the most comfortable. Whether it is in a crate/room/or in bed with one of us. All visitors will get at least two walks per day(weather permitting). All schedules can change, depending on each individual dog.
