Dog Boarding Spenard

“Sarah took wonderful care of Mochi during her stay. She kept us updated with photos and videos, and it was so nice to see Mochi happy, comfortable, and even getting along well with the other dogs. We really appreciated Sarah’s kindness, patience, and care, especially during such a long stay. We felt very comfortable knowing Mochi was in good hands. Thank you so much, Sarah!”

“Huw and Jolynne are wonderful! They've cared for our Cavapoo multiple times, often for a week at a time, and our dog always looks forward to returning to their house. They've been flexible and responsive, and we appreciate their clear and quick communication. Our dog is happy and healthy when we return each time. It's clear that Huw and Jolynne truly know and love dogs. It's been a pleasure to work with them.”

“Lindsey was great! My dog felt right at home with her two pups and was well taken care of. Looking forward to having Lindsey watch her in the future when I need a dog sitter.”

Katie M.

“This was our second time using Ralph for an overnight stay, and both pups were happy and well-cared for. It is such a relief to find someone they feel safe and comfortable with. Now with two visits under our belt, we are booked for a longer stay. I highly recommend Ralph!”

Denise J.

“Excellent communication, provides updates throughout the day, professional customers service, flexible and patient. I'd recommend to local and out of state pet parents.”

Nathaniel B.

“Sharon was great to communicate with and was very accommodating of our large dog. Her large fenced in yard is perfect for dogs to wear themselves out during the day. Our dog was plenty tired after playing for six days. We will definitely use her again!”

Alan B.

“The girls were very comfortable with Jill and seemed very happy when we picked them up. Jill sent pictures throughout the visit. We appreciated the short notice booking over a holiday weekend. Thank you!”

Kirsten B.

“Amanda sent pictures and updates, and my whole pack was happy and healthy after their stay. I think they had a great time and I felt that they were in good hands. ◡̈”

Kimberlynn C.

“They are some of the best dog sitters we’ve ever had! They are always very responsive and send lots of updates and pictures. Our flights have been delayed on 2 separate trips and they have been so understanding and helpful with keeping him a little longer. We always know our boy is safe and happy with them!”

“This was our first time leaving our 2 dogs with other people, let alone strangers. We went to do a meet and greet beforehand and didn’t know quite what to expect. Ryan and Chelsea were great with both of them from the start. Ryan answered all of our questions and was very open. While we were away he kept us updated with how they were doing and sent us photos and videos often. That made it so much easier to enjoy our trip and not have to worry how they were doing. When we went to pick them up, our dogs were excited to see us, but made sure to get last pets from Ryan. We know they are in good hands with Ryan and Chelsea. We will definitely be coming back to them for our trips and we highly recommend! Thank you so much!”

“Mandy was awesome with our English lab! Before our trip she let us have a meet n greet to make sure our animals were all friendly. Definitely went above and beyond with everything. Hope Mandy will want to watch Lucy again in the future! 👍👍”

About: I am a substitute teacher (gone 7:15am-2:45pm Monday-Friday) living on Hillside with my military hubby and two puppers, Oscar and Juniper. Oscar is a 11yr old, 55lb mutt (lab/border collie) and is a thriving, darling gentleman. Juniper is 2yrs old, a Goose Bay special rescue/mutt (55ish lbs as well but taller and lankier than Oscar). They are very well behaved and love company. Our big fenced in backyard allows for oodles of fresh air and freedom to run! They run off leash during hikes and walks, and we would prefer our guest puppers to be able to do so as well. We provide a structured, loving, healthy environment. Your pup, is our pup-part of the family, held to the same basic standards and spoiled with attention, belly and ear scratches, and couch cuddles. Breakfast and potty is usually 6:30/7am, and another potty run 7:30am by Paul (my hubby) before he goes to work. I am usually home at 2:45pm and let them out in the backyard. During the winter, I then head off for a 5km walk on the trails so we can wrap up by dark. If temperatures, weather, or errands alter that, we have reflective/glow collars and walk around our quiet neighbourhood. Supper is 5pm. Pups go in/out as needed (we have a bell on the door they jingle). We typically go to bed 10-11pm, and do a tactical potty run at that time. Walking: Walks are typically 5+km, on trails, off leash preferred since my dogs roam free. I drive a wilderness Subaru Outback so lots of trunk space for 3 med/large dogs or I can drop the seat backs as needed if I need to swing by for your pooch. I do not tolerate unsafe/bad/aggressive behaviour. I follow your directions as I trust you to know what your pet needs and take that seriously. For stays at my place, I have a large house with covered couches, 4 massive dog beds, fenced in backyard, large communal water bowl, two easygoing, friendly puppers, toys galore.

“Wow, this is the best place ever! I searched around and checked with many sitters to find the right match and I couldn’t be happier with Katie. I have an active 11 month old puppy who needs a lot of exercise and who can be a handful but is also a big sweetie. We hadn’t left her with anyone before so I was very nervous. I didn’t need to worry, because it was perfect. They have a huge fenced yard so Rosie was able to run and play and she had so much fun with the other dogs. She was a little sad the first night (as I expected with it being a new place ) but Katie handled it perfectly. When I brought Rosie back for a second visit, she was whining in excitement and couldn’t wait to jump out of the car and go inside. Katie and her husband have a lot of experience with puppies and were the perfect balance of boundaries and love for my energetic puppy. I am so glad I found them and will be bringing Rosie over for many other visits in the future!”

“I felt so comfortable leaving my dog here because she was awesome! She sent pictures to me of my dog while he was there which gave me that extra bit of comfort! She was great with communicating and I'll definitely be using her again!”

About: I've had dogs since I was a child and can't imagine a home without one. Over the years, I've had experience caring for high-energy breeds, senior dogs, dogs recovering from injuries, and dogs who require medication. I enjoy getting to know each dog's individual personality, routine, and quirks and helping them feel comfortable while they're away from home. When your dog stays with me, I want them to feel like part of the family. I understand that every dog is different, so I'm happy to follow their normal feeding, exercise, medication, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. Whether your dog loves walks and playtime or would rather relax and get some extra attention, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I'm retired military and have base access. I understand firsthand that military life can mean deployments, TDYs, long workdays, and unexpected changes to your schedule. Having someone dependable to care for your dog can make those transitions a little easier, and I'd love to provide your dog with a comfortable place to stay while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! I work at a local school during the week, but I am able to come home during the day for a midday potty break. Before and after work, I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. On weekends and school breaks, I'm home more throughout the day. I will do my best to accommodate your dog's normal routine and schedule while they're staying with me. I know consistency can help dogs feel more comfortable when they're away from home, so please let me know what they're used to! At this time, I am not accepting recurring bookings. My home has a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for supervised outdoor time, and we're close to trails for walks and exploring. My dog is well-socialized and used to having other dogs around. I also have the ability to separate living spaces when needed, so dogs can have their own space to relax, eat, or simply take a break from each other. Your dog's safety and comfort are very important to me. Boarding clients are required to provide proof of current vaccinations and dogs must be kennel trained. Kennels provide each dog with a safe, familiar space and allow me to safely separate dogs when needed. To help keep all of the dogs in my care healthy, please let me know if your dog has been sick or has had any recent symptoms before their stay. Dogs showing signs of illness at drop-off will not be able to stay.

“Loren was absolutely wonderful with Kasi. I could tell that my pup enjoyed his stay and may have even been a little sad to leave!! I highly recommend her and feel lucky that she was available over the holidays. Feeling grateful for a stress-free trip - leaving my animals is not easy, but I knew Kasi was in good hands. I appreciated the daily updates. Thank you!! 🙏🏽”

“Lauren was great taking care of and watching our dogs. They were very active, went on walks and played with games. We would recommend Lauren and will use her again in the future.”

Paul H.

“Melanie was professional and reliable. She ensured we had a meet and greet before agreeing to the booking. Melanie provided daily updates and made sure my girl was loved and exercised. I highly recommend Melanie to care for your canine!”

“This was our first experience leaving Killian with someone. Chris was a perfect fit for him and we look forward to him having more time with her so we can travel!”
