SMALL GROUP DOG BOARDING

SERVICING VICTORIA'S WESTSHORE & BEYOND

If you’re heading out of town or need a safe space for your pets to stay for any reason, my home is open to you.

I understand how complex the decision to board your pet can be, and am committed to creating a

comfortable & safe home-away-from-home.

BASE RATES

  • Boarding is best suited for dogs that would enjoy the company of 1 or 2 other dogs, and who are comfortable being left alone for short periods of time should the need arise.

  • I do offer solo boarding that is dependent on existing bookings & has a higher rate - feel free to get in touch if that sounds like a better fit for you & your dog.

  • While barking is a healthy form of dog communication, I am unable to board pups that exhibit excessive barking as there are other tenants on the property. Dogs with high anxiety may be better suited for my pet sitting services.

  • The prices reflected below are based on your pet being dropped off & picked up from my home.

MY APPROACH

🐾  My goal is to make the transition from your home to mine as smooth as possible for your pets, which involves building your pet’s trust and adjusting the lay-out of my home for their individualized needs. 

🐾  I am committed to following your pet’s schedule as closely as I can, which includes feeding, exercise & cuddling routines.

🐾  I take a fear-free approach to pet handling which involves prioritizing the reduction of feelings of stress a dog may feel in a new environment.

MY HOME

I am located off Cairndale Road in Colwood. As the property owner, your pet will have access to a large secure patio as well as supervised access to my fenced-in backyard. 

There is a dedicated and spacious bedroom for boarding clients, with a door that backs on to the patio. Your pet will also have supervised access to the main living space! They will always have access to water, toys and clean bedding. Your pet’s safety and security are my top priority, and when I need to step out of the home & are unable to take them with me, they will be securely set-up in the boarding room.

  • Bookings for boarding can be made up to 6 months in advance.

  • December onwards there will be a maximum of 3 pets boarded at one time - I do not have any of my own pets at the moment.

  • 50% of the final rate is to be paid one week prior to the start date of service by cash or e‐transfer. The remainder will be paid by cash or e‐transfer at the start of service.
