Dog Walking & In-Home Care in Marpole & South Vancouver
Private, structured walks and in-home care designed for a small number of dogs who need consistent, attentive routines.
Who This Is For
- You want consistent care from the same person
- Your dog benefits from routine and familiarity
- You prefer private walks over large group packs
- You value reliability and communication
What We Do
We offer loving daycare and overnight boarding for your dog. Whether your pup needs a quick adventure while you’re busy for a few hours or a warm, comfortable home-away-from-home while you’re traveling, we’re here to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved every step of the way.
We tailor our services to match each dog’s unique needs. Energetic pups can enjoy off-leash outings to parks and beaches across Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby, and New Westminster. For dogs who prefer a slower pace, we offer peaceful on-leash walks or simple backyard strolls.
🐾 Dog Boarding
Your dog will live in our home as part of the family. At least one of us is with the pets 24/7. The dogs sleep in our bedroom — although not on the bed — and we have fun activities throughout the day.
- Calm, familiar environment
- Personalized attention
- Consistent routines maintained
We typically have two or three dogs overnight. During the day, the overnight dogs mingle with the daycare pups.
Rate: $70 + GST per night. If pick-up on the last day is after 2:00 pm, there is an additional half-night ($35) charge.
Christmas to New Year’s surcharge (Dec 20 to Jan 1): additional $10 above rates.
🏠 Dog Daycare
Daycare is a great way for your pup to stay active when you are busy with other activities. On a typical day, we usually have at least one or two daycare dogs, as well as two or three overnight dogs. Everyone participates in whatever activities are appropriate for their interests and abilities.
- Calm, familiar environment
- Personalized attention
- Consistent routines maintained
Rate: $50 + GST for less than 8 hours. For over 8 hours, it is $60 + GST.
🦮 Dog Walks
Whether your dog prefers a group walk or a private one, on leash or off leash, we can help. We usually pick up dogs at their homes. As with any of our services, we can do this on any day of the week.
- Structured, attentive walks
- Customized to your dog’s energy and needs
- Focus on safety and routine
Rates: One-hour group walks are $40 + GST. One-hour private walks are $50 + GST.
🚗 Pet Transportation
Located just a few minutes from Vancouver International Airport (YVR), we are in a good position to help pets make flight connections. We can also transport pets to appointments with their groomers, vets, etc.

- Consistency in care
- Strong familiarity with your dog
- Reliable communication
- Lower stress for your dog
How It Works
- Request a Meet & Greet
- We assess fit and availability
- Begin consistent, ongoing care
