Sucha an amazing place for dogs!! The love and care I felt from them was awesome, it's really handy that they are in Squamish because I can drop them off on my way to Whistler and then pick them up on the way home. Love them! read more

We boarded our dog here over night while we enjoyed a day and night in Squamish. They were very friendly and took good care of our very small dog. I would definitely trust them again in the future. I only wish they were in Vancouver, so I could send my dog their daily for socialization! read more

I have been taking my Vizsla, Phinn to DogHaven for many years. The staff are very friendly and are clearly dog lovers! I like that I can drop him off for half a day or a full day without the need to pre-book. They have also done pick up / drop off service to my house which is very convenient. Phinn loves going there which is all I need to know! read more

This is the BEST palace for your pooch! Michelle and her fabulous ladies are the most caring crew you could possibly ask for. My girl's been going there for her whole life (13 years) and I can say without a doubt she is well taken care of and is so happy to go play every time she has daycare. Highly recommended! read more

I highly recommend never taking any of your dogs to this place. I feel the owner was quite rude and completely incapable of caring for our large breed dog. After the first day I was pretty happy with my dog being there, but after the third day I was informed that they were unable to care for my dog any longer due to his high energy and that there are many other dog boarding businesses in Squamish that would take him. He is a very energetic friendly dog, and he always seemed a little bit off whenever we picked him up, and not in a good way. I will never recommend this place for any dog owners. Avoid if you truly care about your beloved pet. read more

I love that it has no kennels and they take the dogs out for 2 hour adventure hikes! They even have a zen den where the dogs can watch movies and chill out after! I highly recommend this place, the staff is amazing and the owner dedicates her life to dogs! It's in the perfect spot to, in between Vancouver and Whistler! read more

Quite simply the best dog boarding around. Dora gets picked up in Vancouver and then is whisked to…read moreSquamish for her stay. We know how much she loves it there so it's the place we always choose when we are out of town and cannot take her with us. The staff are so caring and loving and when we get photos and videos of her stay it's really apparent that she is having an absolute blast! We are so sad that Ruff Stuff's Vancouver Daycare is no longer active but we are definitely grateful that the Squamish location still exists. Highly Recommended!!

Fantastic boarding service!!!…read more Everyone that works for Ruff Stuff LOVE dogs, its totally apparent. They pick up your dog in Vancouver, bring them back to Squamish for their stay and then return them to Vancouver - fantastic service. Their Instagram photos they send through each day were the highlight of our day so we can keep up to date on how our lab was doing. Our dog, Arbutus thoroughly enjoyed his time. He'll be back in November for sure. We highly recommend Ruff Stuff to all our friends and colleagues!

A report with the SPCA was filed but no charges were laid.

Figs is high energy and a bit rambunctious, and he has a great time running around in the big yard with other dogs like him.

Great facility, easy online booking, would recommend to any dog.
