We were really excited to find this place for our two dogs. We left them for 5 days on a trip out…read moreof province. One dog was a senior and the other dog was a 2 year old very gentle/shy dog. We wanted the younger dog to socialise and that's what we specifically chose their location. The older dog seemed very happy when we picked him up. We were told there were no issues, but we noticed the younger dog wouldn't look at us and he was acting strange. When we got home, he was shaking and we didn't notice until the second day in the morning that he had a bite mark on his snout. He wasn't allowing us to come near his face. We called them immediately and it was busy so they suggested that maybe the older dog had bitten the younger dog when that has never happened in all the times we've had them. In any case, the manager did call us back and apologised and said to call back to discuss this, but we didn't. My husband was too upset. However, the staff is super friendly and they seem to love all the dogs. I just think for the safety of the pets, there should be cameras installed so that if something unexpected happens, the pet owners should be able to review the recordings. We realised that our younger dog should not be in any kennel setting as anything could happen (accident or not) Despite being on anti anxiety medications during this time, he came back really upset, so we will instead have people stay in our home when we go away.

Came across CaptinK9 and had the opportunity to meet the man behind the operation - Kevin. Kevin is…read morea professional individual who gives great care to dogs big and small. He is a pet training couch of 20+ years and is very knowledgeable in his field. At CaptainK9, they offer a variety of raw goods for your pet such as snacks and meals. I signed my husky up for a 5 days boarding with CaptainK9 and the care Kevin put in for my dog made me feel at ease to know that my dog is in the hands of a trained professional with keen eyes, and a big field for him to roam around and have play time interactions with other dogs. Kevin even sent me a video clip of my dog interacting with other boarding dogs. I could have signed my dog up at a big brand pet hotel where he would have been walked daily in the parking lot, and had interacting play time indoors with other dogs, but I'm glad I made the choice of going with CaptainK9, so my dog gets to have playtime outside and enjoy the great outdoors with trusted supervision. I mentioned to Kevin that I've been wanting to switch my husky over to raw food, so he provided raw food to my dog during his boarding period and I am happy to know that he wolfed it all down very quickly. Needless to say, I picked him up today with bags of raw goods for my husky to enjoy at home. Couple key points I'd like to mention: 1. It's my first time EVER doing dog boarding and Kevin made sure he was present for my dog's drop off and pick up time to go through the details with me so I feel at ease. 2. From Kevin's description during my dog's stay, I know he gave great attention to my dog and it's nice to know I can leave my dog in trusted hands. 3. When I picked up some raw food from their store, Kevin knows it's my first ever trying out raw food for my dog so he quickly explained certain mixtures my dog can have to better his digestive system.
