Northwest Boarding Kennels seemed like the perfect place for the pooch. We thought it was a great…read morefit for the little guy and that he would get the best care possible during his stay there. Unfortunately, soon upon his return home his personality and character told another story. He went from being a dog that would sleep all night on his own, and being able to stay home during the day to a dog that would go into panic mode when ever he was alone. He was no longer able to be alone for longer than 15 minutes without panicking. It was quite sad to see. It has been over a year now since he was at Northwest and we are still working on getting him back to his normal self. He has gotten better and can manage being home alone for a couple hours but even then that can be pushing it some days. It is always sad coming home and seeing him at the door panting uncontrollably and drooling profusely. I just want my little pooch to be back to his happy go lucky self. For a while his vet recommended he be put on medication that would easy the anxiety so we did that for a few months and then we weaned him off and just continued to work on leaving him at home longer and longer in hope that it works. He now also goes to daycare any time that someone can't be with him during the day. He used to go to daycare 2 times a week just so he could play and socialize but now it is a must for him to go so he isn't home alone. It has been a long year. I wish my pooch could speak for himself and tell us what happened but he can't so with his response to being at Northwest he won't ever be going back.

Northwest Kennels has nice large covered areas for dogs to play and socialize during the day. Dogs are grouped by their size to ensure they get the most fun out of the experience. The service from the staff was excellent, you could tell they really enjoy taking care of the pets. I think Casey is looking forward to his next visit.

The staff were absolutely amazing in answering all of my emails/check ins to ensure Bella was okay. They reassured me with videos and photos that she was doing well. My sister went to go pick Bella up since my flight was delayed, and Bella didn't want to leave! Rather than going to my sister (who she knows and sees almost every day), Bella ran back to the Jet Pet staff because she didn't want to leave! I'm so grateful and appreciative for everyone that works here for the efforts they all made to ensure Bella was comfortable during her stay! She can't wait to go back!!!

Treks 4 Pets goes above and beyond to give any pooch the best hike ever: Complimentary photos of their adventures A picture of the GPS map to show where they went Pick up and Drop off at your home - leaving super tired pups to rest At least an hour of 5km+ And on top of that only 3 dogs per group making it more time caring/playing with each dog and less time trying to count them all hahaha They even do house boarding/pet sitting while you're away. This means, they can stay in your home to help your pet feel more at ease in their environment or just drop them off at HQ for them to have a great time with a fellow friend. This service ALSO includes that amazing hike explained above. Can't get any better then that! So many benefits with this company. They have done wonders with my little ones and I would recommend them to any pup owner!

Treks for Pets is absolutely amazing!…read more Being from Halifax, I don't have many friends or family here to take care of my cat, Ollie, when my partner and I are away. I went online to find a cat-sitter and found Chantelle and Treks for Pets. I was apprehensive at first, having someone I didn't really know come into my house and trusting them with my cat, but after the first visit, I received photos of Ollie and a daily update on how he was doing and I immediately relaxed. Chantelle is personable, trustworthy and Ollie just loves her. Even after she's done her job, she follows up on how your trip went and seems to care about each of her clients. I would recommend Treks for Pets to anyone who is looking for someone to take care of their cat or dog. Megan

My research for a neighborhood dog walker continues!…read more I was really jaded after my first experienced/correspondence (see my only 1-star review). I was starting to question my own judgement in terms of expectations - was I asking too much of a potential service provider to answer specific questions regarding the services they provide? UHH NO! Because A Walk In The Park had no problem answering them, plus some. I received an email back from Julie within 24 hours, and it was very well detailed and made me feel so much better about everything. And no, it's NOT typical for a dog walking co to refuse questions related to the business they run. I've been in touch with a few other people & walkers, and the first one was the ONLY one that freaked out. Just goes to show, if you get a bad feeling from one, move on to another.

I can't say there are many people that take the time to get to know your pet as well as they do to ensure that they are in the right group with the right dogs, aren't having behaviour issues (and if they are she let's you know right away so you can address it) and really cares if they are having a good time. Genuine and honest as well as skilled and proactive. I wish we could clone a Walk in the Park as their standards are really high and I think we can all agree that our pets deserve the best!
