Your Fur Baby's Loving Care

Pet care experience

Your fur baby(s) will have the constant companionship, love and attention of a retired nurse who adores dogs and is home full time. Medications & senior care - no problem. Walks on a private, gated, treed acreage close to Stony Plain. Plenty of squirrels & birds to watch! Fenced outdoor kennel attached directly to house. I've had West Highland Terriers all my life until McDuff recently passed away. McDuff's Doggie Care is named in his honour. I look forward to spending time with your fur baby(s). Happy to take up to 3 small-medium dogs from the same family at a time. Heading to Jasper? Convenient location, just past Stony Plain, 3 minutes south of Hwy #16, (Yellowhead Trail) main route to the mountains.

Sterling could not have been better taken care of. Irene was so wonderful and provided our little dog with the best care. There lots of photos and updates. He had the best time. I don’t think he wanted to come home.

We are so happy we chose to leave our dogs with Irene! She kept them busy with walks and games all week long. We could tell by our dogs body language that they really loved their time with her, and will be happy to vacay at Irene's House anytime ! Thanks so much, Irene! 🖤

My dogs were very well taken care of. I really like that there are no other animals in the home and it is a peaceful, relaxing stay for your pups. Irene is very responsive and friendly. Was updated regularly with photos. Will definitely be using Irene again for watching my dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced kennel directly attached to the house so dogs can go outside anytime they please to relieve themselves (during the day) or just sit on the porch and sniff the breeze. There are 20 foot long leads attached to the front and back deck so if I'm outside working in the yard they can explore independently yet are always safely within sight. Smoke free, cat, scent & pesticide free environment.

Information Irene D. would like to know about your pet

I want your dog to feel safe, relaxed and comfortable on a lovely vacation. It helps to know what their favourite ways to relax are and to bring along any favourite toys. Also, what, if anything stresses or scares them, let me know so we can avoid that.

A typical day

Living on an acreage opens a wonderful world of smells with no end of new things to explore. We'll walk outside, play ball, then 'find the treat' treasure hunts and food puzzles inside - all depending on your dog's preferences. We also love to watch dog shows on TV and cuddle.
