Reviews
Thank you so much Iren! You made Milo’s first experience at daycare an enjoyable one 💙 Milo was well taken care of , and I was updated through the day; Iren really cares and it shows I would definitely book again when we are visiting Edmonton!! Thank you 💙
Iren was fantastic. This was our first time leaving Camper with her and she was wonderful to work with. Camper had such a good time and I appreciated the communication back and forth. Camper was exhausted from playing so much when we picked her up. I could tell she had fun because she wanted to stay. :-). Thanks Iren for loving our puppy up!
Loving home, took excellent care of our puppy!
Iren has been lovely with Zara. Lots of walks and lots of love. Very open communication. Would use her services again!

We have a small fenced front yard but we prefer to walk the dogs and let them run on a very long training leash or fenced park. We follow your directions on that. Note: please bring snacks they like and pee pads for the puppies. I can provide all those for an additional $5 however. Bring their favourite toy and bed for staying overnight to make them as comfortable as possible. Day care beyond 8.5 hrs has an extra charge of $4. We are a healthy food household so any furry friends will get the low calorie healthy treats when they give us the “puppy eye”. We don’t believe crates are necessary so all pets get some training on healthy boundaries, rewarded with healthy snacks and cuddles on the couch, gates are used to restrict them from getting into trouble. Our dog is 1 year old and loves to play, with a companion they will make each other tired by the end of the day. He gets along great with our daughters pitbull mix, we have lots of experience with her too. So size and breed doesn’t matter to us, we love them all. We deal with anxious dogs, fearful dogs, and take care of them with great patience. We are the dependable and warm sitters you both would love to return to. We only require all dogs to have updated vaccinations, flea and tick free, and dewormed.

Information Iren H. would like to know about your pet
Need from you: dietary restrictions, illnesses, usual schedule, any medication that’s needed, any behavioural issues we should know about. Pictures and videos during their stay are provided as many times as you like, naturally.
A typical day
I like to stimulate the dogs with scent games, hide and seek indoors if the weather is too chilly and tire them out on our long walks on the nearby parks, weather permitted.

I’m retired now with all the time in the world to spend with our rescue Dachshund, Remi while my husband works part-time. My husband and I like to stay active with our young dog and my daughter’s medium size dog. Staying active is number one to keep us healthy and in a good shape, so your best friend will have long walks on the several paths around our house, playing chase with our dog. We have a townhouse so our schedule starts at 5:30am with the first potty break, ending late night with the longest 1.5 hr walk around the lovely neighborhood. We keep your dogs schedule just like at home and follow your direction whatever that might be to make sure they are comfortable.
