Loving & Safe Home Away From Home

Pet care experience

Nice to meet you :) My name is Lisa and I hope to have the opportunity to offer safe and loving care for your beloved family member(s) I have been dog boarding in my home for over 15 years. Myself and my family live in a large 5 bedroom home on a half acre property in beautiful North Vancouver surrounded by mountains, trails and green space. I’m passionate about what I do and have been raising and caring for dogs all of my life. I have extensive experience boarding, training as well as in pet nutrition. It should go without saying but I believe in only positive training methods and treating every animal with the upmost kindness and respect at all times. I believe in only positive reinforcement methods, repetition and praise. I am also the owner of a local pet treats company which allows me to work from home most of the time so your pup will have loads of care and attention and healthy treats! We are a family of 3 and so there’s generally always somebody here to give attention and there’s definitely no shortage of love and play time. I have cared for 100’s of dogs over the years with a variety of needs from training to healthcare needs including administering a large variety of medications including diabetic. I also have extensive experience with senior dogs who require extra care etc. Personally I’m very healthy, athletic, outdoorsy and I’m happy to provide daily walks, runs and trail time to suit your pups exercise needs. I will also send regular video and photo updates so you can follow along and see how your best buddy or buddies are doing while you’re away. We provide full run of the house, no kennels or cages (unless requested and supplied by you) If your dog is used to sleeping with people we are more than happy to accommodate that as well. Unfortunately we cannot accommodate the following: Aggression towards people/animals Separation anxiety Excessive barking Destructive tendencies Dogs who are not fully house/bathroom trained Puppies under 6 months For single night bookings I do charge a 2 day minimum. All other booking are by the night or sleep :) If you would like to know more please reach out, we would love to hear from you. Cheers, Lisa and family

Lisa and her family took such a good care of our dog. I felt like our dog had vacation as well, while we were away. He made some new friends while staying with Lisa - both doggie friends and human friends. Thank you, Lisa, for being such an awesome dog carer.

Lisa is a very experienced and attentive host. We left our German shepherd mix for two and a half weeks and she never looked better. Very energetic and happy, and no problems whatsoever with kennel cough or other pests. We would be very happy to have her watch our dog again.

Information Lisa M. would like to know about your pet

I am open to most breeds. My main question is always around disposition and your pups ability to get along with other dogs and people. I of course take safety very seriously for both your dog and mine as well as all the people they get to spend time with :)

A typical day

We are very fortunate to live right next to the North Shore Mountains and we’re surrounded by trails and green space. We love to get out for walks and hikes every day and depending on your dogs exercise needs we can accommodate everything from small neighbourhood walks to larger mountain hikes. Around the house we love to play and give lots of love and TLC. We have dog safe/friendly toys, balls etc to have fun with, stimulation and play time is such an important part of a dogs daily routine. For our senior guests who are past the running around stage, we are sure to give loads of pets and attention and even massage for tired or sore joints.
