Doggy Day Care • Jul 10, 2026

Vanessa is clearly a dog lover. She was great at communicating and took excellent care of our whippet. Our dog is normally shy, but took an immediate liking to Vanessa. She sent (gorgeous) pictures and updates periodically. Will DEFINITELG book with her again. Highly recommend. Thank you Vanessa!

Vanessa was great. Communication was easily absorbed and I came home to a tired pup. I highly recommend.

Doggy Day Care • Apr 17, 2026

Vanessa took a great care of our dog! She took her for multiple long walks and visited many places in Whistler. She always kept me updated with photos and texts. We highly recommend her to everyone who needs dog daycare services 👍

Vanessa was very good with our Bodhi. She was easy to work with and meet up, she sent lots of photos while she was with him and gave us a good feeling that he was enjoying his time!

Vanessa was so kind to rearrange her schedule to take Jasper at the last minute. Jasper had a great time and we received some wonderful photos while we were on the slopes!

A typical day

When out for walks, dogs in my care are kept on their leash at all times. I will also not feed your dog anything other than the food that you provide. (I can supply dog treats if approved by you!)

It is helpful to know how your dog typically spends their day! Meal times/exercise levels/nap times/potty breaks etc. Please bring whatever will make your dog the most comfortable such as their bedding (if staying overnight), their treats and toys etc..
