They have a shuttle service from Horseshoe Bay from Vancouver pets coming to Nopawblems Care, so book early always! The best is worth it. Reasonably priced, excellent staff, good food or bring your own. I have trusted her with several daycare 11-4 p.m. Just to see her getting used to the other dogs, kennel and owners. She's highly sensitive husky mix. It took a few visits. We got to a weekend, a week and one ten day stay. When the last thing you want to worry about on vacation, on a tight budget, is your dogs well-being ... I trust Nopawblems. She's is a little highly stimulated each time. She prefers home. But she's not upset or frightened. I am secure with my choice. If anything comes up she is in the best hands.

I have taken my dogs here for 9 years. to this exceptional kennel. It is a large and beautifully…read moremaintained facility in a rural setting. My pets have always received the best care possible. I took one of my young dogs to a session with Joyce for help with his aggressive behaviour. I had sought help previously from a series of recommended trainers and vets. In one session,Joyce provided me more help than all the others combined. One of my very old ( 16+) dogs refused to eat one day. Realizing that this was not normal for him, and knowing his age, and after trying unsuccessfully to reach me, they took him into their home and sat with him. He passed away peacefully in a few hours, in the company of loving humans. After speaking to me, they took him to a local vet and had him cremated and gave me the ashes. It was a hard sad time, and I cannot imagine a better way to end a long life. This is absolutely the best place for a dog to be. The only drawback is that they are so good- and it is not easy to get a space.

He takes great care of our cats (one of whom has a complex care routine), sends us photos, and writes little notes for us to enjoy when we return home. On our most recent trip, we were delayed getting home and Thomas was super flexible and accommodating, making an extra visit to our cats at the last minute. It really helped make an already-stressful situation easier. I would 100% recommend Thomas--absolutely worth it.

We took our dog out to WAGSVILLE today just to check it out and see if it was a good fit. All I can…read moreis: wow. Beautiful property, very securely fenced. Had a good chat with the owner Barash; he has a long history in the hospitality business so that assured me he'd look after our dog well. We also were very impressed at the limit on the dog numbers found at WAGSVILLE. He outlined the dogs' daily routine for us - they get an excellent amount of outdoors time whatever the weather, just modified when it's snowy or rainy or hot. We will take our dog over for a stay about once a month and then leave him there for our next big trip in November. He's going to love it there. Nice big kennels in a clean, secure, well heated building - and of course , enough space for dogs to run. Senior citizens and small dogs have their own exercise area, safe from larger more boisterous dogs. Easy to get to on Bowen Island, and the island's veterinarian is close by.

We always worried about leaving them, not knowing if they would come out to eat. It made traveling very stressful. This was our second time with Selma (the first was a 5-day trial), and we left for 18 days. Honestly, we never imagined this would happen--our cats gradually came out to see her and even finished their food before she left. Our boy, Wally, even welcomed her at the door. Selma made the impossible possible. Thanks to her patience and deep understanding of cats, we now feel free to travel with peace of mind. We highly recommend Selma as a cat nanny.
