Dog Boarding in Arbutus

My experience with Liz & Jeff has been nothing but exceptional from start to finish. If you don’t read the rest of my review, then just read this: book them ASAP. I was hesitant to use Rover / other dog sitting services because i’ve only used my friends or family in the past to watch my dog, so this was new to me. Prior to confirming the booking, Jeff had me bring over my 4 month old pup, Phineas. Phineas immediately took a liking to the two other dogs they have in the yard, and Jeff was eager to answer my questions. Liz, Jeffery and the rest of the family immediately made me feel welcomed when i came to drop my pup off. It feels like a family reunion, even though ive never seen these people in my life! Their passion for dogs clearly shine through their words and actions. I knew phineas was in for a fun 48 hours. While i was away, i was sent constant updates on how phineas was doing, pictures and videos included. And its not just short captions. Liz goes out of her way to tell me short stories of cute / funny / crazy things phineas was doing. I was starting to get worried that phineas won’t want to come home with me by the time i picked him up. I am grateful to find my lil pup his Go-To sitters, and looking forward to going out of town again so phin can go back to “puppy vacation”

Alex was great! He shared lots of photos and was communicative, I can tell Ruby enjoyed her stay. We love when she has opportunities to run and play with other dogs, and it looks like she got lots of that! Would definitely work with Alex again.

Eddy had a great time with Virginia, her kids and her two dogs. They did an amazing job taking care of him and making sure he got lots of exercise. We came home to a very tired and happy dog. Thank you Virginia!

Second time booking with Brandon😊 My dog was very happy when I picked him up and i am even happier picking him up. The peace of mind leaving my dog under Brandon’s care is just priceless. We are looking forward to the next booking. Thanks you so much Brandon!

We can’t say enough kind words about Priscilla. This was our first time leaving any of our pets with someone so needless to say we were quite anxious. Priscilla put those feelings aside almost immediately when we had our meet and greet. She loved all over our Dallas from the start and explained her process while watching dogs. We received multiple photos each day with an update. We will definitely use Priscilla again in the future.

Taylor was very patient with us picking up Coco due to the snow storm. This is Coco’s second time boarding with Taylor and once again it was a great experience.

It was our first time leaving our dog Subbu with Ginnie and Steve. They were very good and he absolutely loved his stay, specially their 2 dogs ? ?

Thank you again for taking such great care of Lucky!! I don’t worry when I have to go away for work. I love the pics they send and keeping me updated throughout his stay. I’d recommend them highly!! 😀

Theresa did a great job caring for our yorkie for two weeks! She was communicative and provided lots of updates. It was clear that our dog was very comfortable and adored her and her daughter. We highly recommend her!

Mrs. Robin and Her Family have become family, especially to our Luna girl!❤️ She loves my girl and my girl loves her. Mrs. Robin and her family has even been a blessing to me during the loss of my mother and her act of kindness in that moment, made her a cut above the rest. To give condolences is one thing, to give a card is another! 🥹 Exceptional Service, and A true pet lover to her core! We communicate well and I appreciate that about her! I love leaving reviews, but don’t everyone go running to Mrs. Robin at once, because too many of yall will prevent space for my pup 🐶, lol! As long as She is willing and able, my dog will always board and go to daycare with her Auntie Robin!

Felice and her family are great! Bella has a great time and is always excited every time we pull up. We appreciate all the pictures Felice sends.

Val loved her time with Nikki and her daughter! We got pictures each night, with a report card, which was much appreciated. Very much recommended, and we are looking forward to using her again!

Hazel won me over the minute I seen her and from that I knew she most certainly had a good mom! Shruti even accommodated me needing to Ubereats over a rotisserie chicken for my dog because I didn't pack enough. My dog seemed at home when I came to pick him up and we can't wait to see them again!

Karla did an EXCELLENT job with my pup! She did a great job sending daily updates, pictures, and taking my pup on so many walks. I appreciated that she picked up on a lot of my dog’s funny little quirks and mentioned them in her updates to me, it really reassured me that my dog was with someone who was paying extra attention to her and who she felt safe being her silly self with. My dog was so relaxed and happy when I came home and I had so much peace of mind thanks to Karla. Could not recommend her more!!!

Very accommodating and understanding

We left our dog, Magu, with a Rover sitter and couldn’t be happier with the experience. He went out for walks more than four times a day, and each time, the sitter sent us photos and videos, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear from the updates that Magu was doing great and getting along so well with Callie, their sweet Golden Retriever. Knowing he wasn’t lonely made us feel so relieved. In the past, when we used other sitters through Rover, Magu would often come home with signs of anxiety, which always left us feeling uneasy. But after staying with this family, he came home looking calm and happy—and that peace of mind means everything to us. Even if we don’t need overnight boarding, we’re planning to bring him back for day care every now and then, just so he can spend time playing with Callie. Out of all the sitters we’ve tried, this one is by far the best. We’re so thankful we found them.

Morgan is fantastic! My dogs love going to her spot! She has given me helpful tips with handling Phantom when other dogs approach and suggested dog food that my pups will actually eat.

Sarah was great with Skippy! She was super easy to deal with. She responded to my messages very quickly and arranged for a meet and greet to make sure our dogs were compatible. Luckily they were and Skippy had a blast with Jack! She also sent lots of pictures and updates while we were away. I would definitely recommend Sarah.

Lingli and family took amazing care of my little old lady and gave me daily picture and video updates! They were all very sweet and so appreciated!

This was the second time Wilson, our golden retriever, stayed with Esther and Yi. They took great care of him, giving him daily walks and making him a real member of their family. They send videos and photos every day. Highly recommend.
