I initially started taking my dog Obi-Wags Kenobi to the Woofer Walker daycare for some…read moresocialization since he is an "only dog." He is anxious, and there were times he did not play appropriately with smaller dogs (he had too much energy, and he does not always recognize/respond to the other dog's body language of "please give me space." They gave me great feedback on how he was doing, but his trainer and I decided that daycare for my anxious dog would not let him be "his best self." I then transitioned him to their Woofer Walker Munchkin March pack walks, which is a much better fit for him. He gets to socialize with the other dogs in the pack walk, run himself silly, and sniff everything (animate and inanimate). Obi would walk over my dead body to get to Woofer Walker Judy! He is so excited when it is Woofer Walker day that he waits by the front door, staring at it until he hears the van pull up, and then loses his mind. Judy is very patient with his excitement. They let me know which days would be the best fit for him regarding the other dogs' personalities and play styles, so he goes every Tuesday and Thursday. They also post videos of some of the highlights of the walks and post pictures - it is the highlight of our evening to watch the videos! I've downloaded some of the images since they are great shots!

Hi Donna, it sounds like you have a great rapport with dogs. But I'm the father of three that you…read moreharassed on the beach today for being here without a dog. We sit where we sit on the beach in Cadboro Bay because when my partner shows up with her dog we want her to be able to join us. The dogs off leash don't bother us unless they're rooting through our stuff, and we don't bother them. My kids were pretty upset because they thought that we weren't allowed to sit in the same spot we always sit on the beach. For your reference this isn't a dog beach, it's a public frontage where dogs are permitted, under effective control or on a leash. We would be very happy to refer our friends to your business, if you stop harassing us on the beach. The image attached is from the Saanich Municipal Website. You mentioned this was one of the only parks people could bring their dogs. In fact of the 170 public parks in Saanich, only 6 have any restrictions.

She picked up the phone right away and listened to my situation and managed to squeeze me in the same day despite her busy schedule. When she arrived I was very impressed by her calm, confident energy and her warm smile put me at ease right away. She brought a stack of study notes for me and for the first 30 minutes or so we sat down while we talked and got the dog familiarized with Donna. After the 30 minutes was over, we spent the rest of the time training. I noticed that she is all about positive reinforcement, and does NOT use any form of punishment. I feel like Donna went the extra mile because I did not feel like just another client..having her over was like having a friend. I was not rushed and even stayed to answer my questions. I was contacted a week later or so to follow up on my dog's progress. Not only is she fabulous with dogs but she also has great interpersonal skills. After the session was over she never mentioned about booking more sessions with her;Instead she encouraged me to read the notes she gave me. Thank you so much- it was lovely meeting her 2 lovely dogs Blossom and Angus as well.

Call up Anna and her wonderful dog walkers! I've used Whistler Dog Sitting for the past two trips in Whistler and I am happy to report both times went without a hitch! Anna and her sitters enabled me to enjoy my ski trips without worrying about my dog making a mess in the room or me having to quit the slopes early to take him out. Maybe it's a common Aussie trait, but Stephanie bonded easily with my dog and gave me status updates and photos of their adventures together. She accommodated all of my requests (room access, treat allowance, keeping him warm) and communicated with me quickly if there was a problem. I never had to go through her boss Anna for any issues. I will caution you that they have a two hour minimum ($20/hour) and only accept cash! So if you are traveling from out of country make sure to get some cash handy to pay the sitters (they must be paid each day for service). It will be well worth it!

The owner, Anna responded promptly during the holiday and sent over a liability and waiver to sign also wanting to gather details of our dog, Chip, so they could care for him. We arranged for 2 nights of sitting with this company for 3 hours each so that we could go out for dinner. First night: we had some transportation issues getting up to Whistler and arrived many hours later than we had anticipated. I went back and forth with Anna several times that day on email and she was highly responsive and understanding. Our sitter patiently waited for us and also texted me so I could let her know when we arrived. Carolyn had treats but was sure to ask if he had allergies, let us know what her plans with the dog were and she was very sweet to him. When we arrived back he was sleeping in his Westin Heavenly Dog Bed and was in good spirits despite a long dark bus ride up from Vancouver that day. Second night: we met Tamara in our hotel room and Chip got along with her right away. She provided an itinerary as well and took him out for an hour long walk. I left toys and treats for her to use with the dog and she asked us about specifics around food and his history. While we were waiting for our dinner reservation we did spot Chip out and about tail wagging happily and flirting with all the ladies. When we returned Chip was again well exercised, in high spirits and well behaved sleeping on top of our bed waiting for us. Will hire these folks again. Solid customer service and great sitters. Thank you Anna and team!

I love the energy Dan and Jo has for all these little small dogs. Very open people, initially while my Fiance and I were asking around the doggy day cares in the area; Dan openly said go to other businesses talk to them and let them know why we went with them. Not very many businesses ask why I took my business else where. The rates for doggy day care seem to be in the same range as the other locations. The play area is a bit small, however I don't mind it. It forces the dogs to socialize with one another.
