Personalized Dog Care

Your Dog’s Home Away From Home

We provide a unique, one-on-one boarding experience for your pup, we spend the first day integrating your dog into our home, yard and neighbourhood and of course settling them in with our family dog “Star”. Star is a 4 year old, 33 pound doodle mix.

For their stay, your dog becomes part of the family. They come with us on outings and are playing and sniffing in a safe, fully fenced yard or on our daily walks.

We want you to feel at ease knowing you will enjoy peace of mind with daily updates and videos, ensuring your dog feels loved and at home.

To board with us, your dog needs to be comfortable with other dogs, older children and be able to be left on occasion for up to 4 hours. I work from home, so I’m usually here with them, but depending on the day, the dogs may be left safely in the home for 1-4 hours.

I recently had the pleasure of boarding my two dachshunds with Erin, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment I met Erin, it was clear that she had a genuine love for animals and a natural ability to connect with them. My dachshunds, who can be a bit stubborn and excitable at times, immediately warmed up to her, which was a great sign! She was not only kind and loving with my dogs, but she also demonstrated a perfect balance of affection and authority. She knew how to handle them with gentle firmness, ensuring they were well-behaved while still making time spent enjoyable and fun for them. I appreciated how attentive she was to their needs, making sure they were comfortable, safe, and stimulated. What really stood out to me was her professionalism and reliability. She was very responsible and communicated clearly, providing updates and sharing pictures. It was reassuring to know my dogs were in such capable and caring hands. I felt completely at ease knowing that they were being looked after by someone who truly understands and loves dogs. Thank you for taking such great care of my dachshunds!

My experiences with Erin have been fantastic. She’s caring, attentive, and a natural with exuberant puppies and dogs. She cares about their health and wellbeing. My dog Wasabi is always excited to see her, so I trust in her care and comfort when I need to travel.

Erin took such good care of my dog! My pup is shy and Erin is so understanding and helps her to feel at ease. I feel very comfortable leaving her in Erin’s care.

Erin is a very trustworthy and responsible pet caregiver. Erin’s attention to the safety of the animals in her care is one of her core values in my opinion. I have observed Erin’s calm and natural ability to control the dogs in her care. In her natural calm presence, the dogs always feel cared for and safe as boundaries are set for everyone’s safety and wellness in mind. I trust Erin to care for my dog with ease, as I know she will take extra care to make sure my dog receives the best care while I am away.

What is your experience with dogs?

I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved.

Can I visit your facility?

Absolutely! We encourage potential clients to visit our home to see the environment where their dogs will stay and meet us in person. I find my dog integrates with guest dogs best if we first take a walk together. I am comfortable with normal dog behaviour as they get to know each other such as barking and setting their status and boundaries and you should be too.

What if my dog has special needs?

Please discuss these needs with us during the initial consultation to ensure we can provide the best care. We are happy to accommodate dogs with certain special needs, including dietary restrictions or medication requirements. Your dog must be comfortable with being occasionally left at home for up to 4 hours in a day, be ok with another dog and a child around them.
