Highlights
Pet care experience
Boarding, walking & playing ♥️
Neighbours and family friends have leaned on me for dog and cat care over the years. Including walks, overnight care and drop-ins. In particular a beautiful mature Border Collie called Alfie who stole my heart. More recently, we cared for a gorgeous cross adopted from India in our home for 13 days. She is great at being lazy but also put us through our paces on the mountains too - the perfect combo for an active couple who also enjoy their chill time.

Poppy was great with Morocco! Would send updates and photos and Morocco looked so happy ☺️
Sherri had a great time with Poppy and Shane! Would definitely recommend
Poppy was great!! She updated me with a few photos from Harley’s stay, and I felt super comfortable leaving him in her care overnight. Would definitely recommend Poppy for your furry friends!
Kylo loves coming to Poppy’s house. Poppy is very good with Kylo and makes sure he always is as comfortable as he can possibly be
Kylo had a wonderful stay with Poppy!

Schedule
I currently work full-time; from home in Kitsilano twice per week, and in Downtown three times per week. Can do drop-ins or walks nearby during my lunch hour, take care of your pet overnight in my apartment which I share with my partner, or evening care/walks between 5pm-10pm most nights. Please enquire for full availability, I can be very flexible!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a two bed apartment with a balcony. No other pets, no smokers, two young(ish!) professionals who would like a dog of our own one day!
A typical day
We live close to two dog friendly parks and a beach, and also have a car to take your dog further afield. I love to hike and enjoy being in or on the water swimming or paddleboarding, so if your dog is adventurous too that works! Equally happy to find a quiet area or chill at home.

- Let me know if your dog has any special behaviours or needs. I’ve recently taken care of a very anxious dog for two nights and we had a lovely slow weekend as far away from crowds as possible.
