My cat seemed much less stressed when I returned home having not been placed in a kennel while I was away. It was reassuring to know she was well cared for and fed. Rocky was also very flexible when I wasn't able to make it home on the scheduled date. He had no problems staying a few extra days. I definitely will use this service again and would recommend to others.

We just got back from a 2 week vacation & had Carole watch our fur babies - Tia our darling little…read moredog - - Midnight our lovable cat - and our fish aquarium - I have no words to commend Carole on a job well done!! - not only is Wags 2 Whiskers reliable, affordable but your fur babies are not just taken care of they are tenderly loved by Carole. We think Tia is missing her today. Carole emailed us regularly while we were away making our holiday that much more enjoyable. Rocky went out of his way to assist Carole when Tia would not go to the bathroom, Rocky also took time out of his day to look at our vacuum cleaner as Carole was ensuring our place was spotless upon our return. We have hired other pet sitters in the past & our thoughts are that Wags 2 Whiskers is the best!! If you have a upcoming holiday and worried about the care of your fur babies Wags 2 Whiskers is highly recommended by both Russell & me.

Erin watched my 16-year-old cat for me a few months ago while I was away. First, she met me at my…read morehouse and asked questions about everything from what Sid likes to play with to getting the mail. She put me at ease right away. I recommend Erin to anyone who's going away without their kitty.

Erin is absolutely the best pet sitter we have ever had! She has been taking excellent care of our…read morecats and dog for the last three years. She is extremely attentive to our pets and prepares thoughtful (and often hilarious) reports on their activities in our absence. Two of our three cats are shy and spend a lot of time upstairs; I've seen both of them come down to say hello when Erin has stopped by to pick up keys. I can't even begin to explain the peace of mind we have when Erin takes care of our crew. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a very kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable and trustworthy pet sitter.

Never more secure care for my dog anywhere! Luna. Very…read morehappy knowing she's in the most skilled highly educated obedience and tracking training that is unique on the coast. 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.

My dog is reactive and can't be around many other dogs or too many new people at a time and the boarder Briana was a perfect match for Chewie. The organizer April is incredible with dogs, very smart and skilled in terms of behaviour and positive reinforcement for dogs, and has helped me learn so much about my dog over the past few months. Highly recommend for dog boarding and general dog wisdom and companionship!

If I have to go away for a few days, I can't leave my dog with just anyone. While Sally is a…read moresweetheart inside the house, she's always looking for trouble outside, and can be especially reactive with other dogs. I need to know that the person who cares for my dog can handle my lil firecracker and prevent trouble from happening. My good friend who lives across the street is such a person, but more than a couple of days of dogsitting is kind of an imposition for a friend. I definitely did not want to send my large, energetic dog to a kennel (aka doggy jail). Bronte Pet Services to the rescue! I found them through a link on the website of the also-awesome Dizine Canine training centre. These wonderful people, April and Lauren and their team of petsitters, specialize in and even enjoy working with challenging dogs. They are also involved with HugABull rescue and are well-trained and experienced in reactive dog handling. We exchanged a few emails, and a couple of days before the trip, April, who would be sitting for us (the sitter she initially matched us with had to cancel) and another Lauren, who would providing some relief, came over for a home visit and to get the keys and contracts, etc. Sally loved them right away (cookies!), and when we left for the trip, we felt assured she - and the house - was in good hands. Knowing my dog, I had some lingering worries, but the first progress report email dispelled them completely. Throughout the trip, April sent us emails and pictures regularly to update us on how things were going. They would generally stay overnight and give her morning and evening walks and feeding. I'm also super happy with all extras April brought to the arrangement. She brought over her own doggy puzzle toys for Sally to solve to get her dinner - and who doesn't like to be told their dog is smart enough to solve the hardest ones with ease? She also introduced us to using a body halter, rather than the head halter I had been using, and even lent me one to try out after we got back. And she definitely wore my dog out with lots of interesting walks and "urban agility" exercises in the park nearby. They take care of all kinds of pets, but I love that they love taking care of even the more challenging (difficult, smart, energetic) animals. And I love that, since finding Bronte Pet Services, I feel like maybe I can now take a vacation once in a while!

I couldn't possibly be happier with Boneheads and their amazing staff and ownership. Rosa and her…read moreteam put everything they have in to making sure my baby gets the best hike she can rain or shine. As much as my dog loves me, when one of her hikers comes to get her I'm forgotten in a second. I couldn't trust them more and I can't thank them enough for the quality they provide day in and out. The beautiful photos that they post online show me what a great time Zooey is having. Her socialization has improved immensely, and listens much better to us. We love that she gets to mix with all sizes and breeds of dogs and is not stuck with only other little dogs. When we were originally looking for a daycare we tried both the standard daycare and boneheads. It took us exactly 2 hikes to know that that was the right place for her. She came home tired, hungry and happy instead of smelling like pee and cleaner, yappy and irritable. I can't imagine not having Zooey out with boneheads. Thank you for taking the best care possible of Zo and everything you and your team do.

At our initial consultation, he gave us advice to keep kitty happy and less lonesome. He put me at ease and confident that our cat was well taken care of, so that we can fully enjoy our vacation. He would send us pictures of her and her cat areas to keep us updated. He was very patient with our shy cat as she eventually came out of hiding and befriended Thomas. Pet Sitters By The Bay will definitely get our repeat business and I have no problem recommending them to any vacationing pet owner.
