Hunter was amazing with my Boxer/Mastiff/American Bulldog mix who does not like men or other dogs…read more She was able to keep him housed separately so that he and their other boarders were safe, and only female staff worked with him. He thrived there, which was obvious from the photos and videos Hunter sent us while we were on vacation. I highly recommend Top Dog. They are very experienced with difficult dogs and went out of their way to make my dog's experience a positive one. We were able to vacation knowing he was in capable and loving hands.

From the owner: We are located on 10 acres of farmland overlooking Kelowna International Airport. We live here so…read morethere is supervision 24/7 to insure a safe and relaxing experience for your pet. Our private yet central location is the perfect choice for your favorite dogs. All guests experience a safe environment, play times with a handler and walks around the 10 acre property. For dogs that like to swim we have the pool available during the summer months as well. We also specialize in hard to handle dogs with separation anxiety or other behavioral issues. We know not all dogs play well with others so we do not have group play times, we have individual play times. Our kennel building is climate controlled and has indoor outdoor runs as well. We also offer dog grooming services, as well as free parking and a free shuttle ride to and from the airport to catch your flight.

I am SO glad my mother and I found this amazing place! We both have small dogs and Dr. Chhetri and…read morehis staff are extraordinary! Dr. Chhetri is attentive, gentle, understanding, and clearly devoted to the wellbeing of the animals (and their owners) who come into his care. He also clearly cares about their day-to-day wellbeing because the products he sells (and does not push in any way) are not overpriced - in fact, I wonder if he is making any kind of money from carrying pet food, etc., because his mark up is nearly imperceptible. My mother recently had to buy a specialty food at a veterinary hospital in the Lower Mission and the price was nearly 100% higher, for the identical product, than at Alpine Pet Hospital. This, to me, means that his clients are more likely to be able to afford quality food, etc., for their pets. For my family this is evidence enough that Dr. Chhetri is not motivated by personal gain, but truly wants the animals he cares for to have every chance of being well looked after at home as well. Love this place!

took my cat there for a complete check-up and teeth cleaning. I called every vet. in kelowna and…read moreA.P.H. was the only one that gave me a quote for teeth cleaning right away AND they were the lowest. other vets wanted me to bring the cat in to have a look and then give a quote but I would tell them that a cat has very few teeth and they should have an idea of what the cost would be. so I took my cat to A.P.H. the doctor was thorough and explained everything. the assistant with 24 years experience, however, had trouble finding my cat's jugular for a blood sample even after shaving off an area 1.25" x 2"! so she shaved the area on the other side to try to find it, leaving a big strip of fur gone from across his neck! good thing it will grow back fairly quickly. I was quite happy and impressed that the doctor gave me a better price than he originally told me! since when does a vet do that? even more impressive was when I went to pay, the secretary connected me to a local service to see if some of the cost would be taken care of by them. turns out they covered almost the whole bill of $357 except for $7!

Tammy from HouseHawks visited our 2 cats while we were out of the country. It was my first time…read moreleaving them alone so I was nervous. Meeting with her the first time I knew I was going to be worry free on our trip. I was looking to hire someone reliable for daily visits so the cats weren't lonely,instead of having our neighbours just pop by. We've used their services twice since then. Tammy was wonderful and the cats were well cared for. She even sent me daily updates! Highly recommend HouseHawks. Excellent service!!

From the owner: HouseHawks is a small, locally-owned pet-sitting & house-sitting one woman show who looks after…read moreeverything important while you're away - your home & your fur family. I focus primarily on cats & small pampered pooches who prefer the royal treatment and crate-free comforts of home over noisy, cold or busy centres where dogs often sit in kennels. If it is house sitting you need, during house checks, I oversee everyday tasks that make a home look occupied and lived in which increases security by deterring crime and unwelcome guests - your home is more vulnerable while vacant. This also prevents potential lapses in insurance that can happen in as little as 3 days when property is left unmonitored or vacant. Instead of hiring house sitters and kennels separately - bundle it all together in a simple customized package that will save you money and ease any worry about your home, your pets, and your insurance - allowing you to focus on your vacation or business while away. Even if you have extra long workdays, have a small pooch with separation anxiety, or simply feel guilty about leaving your pet alone and unstimulated all day, I can help - especially with the company of my wee Toy Manchester Cassi who loves playdates, walks and regular trips to the dog park. Simply connect via HouseHawks Facebook page to see if we are a good fit and book a Meet & Greet. Keeping Your Cares at Bay, While You're Away! Tammy Murray, BSc

Great place it was really affordable for us when we had to keep our dog there for a couple weeks…read more She texted us pictures of our dog hanging out and kept us updated and our dog really seemed to have a great time. Would definitely recommend 100%

Georgina was incredibly flexible and pleasant to work with (willing to take my dog for same-day…read morecare). My trip much easier with her caring for my dog, and my dog was more content after being with her than she had been in weeks. I will definitely leave my dog with her again the next time I am in the area :) !
