Adventure Pack Walks

  • Two dogs standing on a mossy log in a forest setting.

    Physical Exercise

    Proper exercise for dogs is invaluable. The dogs in our packs often hike between 5-10 kilometers per walk as which helps to prevent injury, build muscle, manage weight, deter boredom, and enhances their quality of life.

    Training & Enrichment

    Our adventures encourage your dog to be enriched by following their natural instincts through sniffing, exploring, and playing along with mental challenges through our training and problem solving.

    Structured Socialization

    The dogs in our packs develop life-long friendships with their canine pack mates which allow them to engage in playful, confidence building behaviour with other well-behaved dogs in a safe environment.

Unlike traditional dog daycares, we believe in giving dogs the space and structure to truly be themselves on our adventures.

We carefully select our packs based on energy-levels, playfulness, and sociability. Our priority is for your dog to build a life-long relationship with the dogs in their pack and with their human pack leader.

Our pack leaders are constantly undergoing more training to ensure we can provide the most enriching, positive experiences for each and every dog.

Our Approach

  • Each walk is $55-$60 CAD. The rate depends on how many days per week your dog adventures with us.

  • Each adventure is between 1.5-2.0 hours in length, not including transportation time. Round trip, our adventures are usually between 2.5-4 hours long.

    The length of time your dog is gone for depends on where you are located (ex. clients located in West Vancouver will be gone for shorter periods of time as they are closer to the trails and therefore don’t require as much transportation time).

  • We service most of Vancouver and West Vancouver.

    This includes, but is not limited to Mount Pleasant, South Cambie, Shaughnessy, Olympic Village, Fairview, Kitsilano, Downtown Vancouver, and West Vancouver.

  • We offer pick ups and drop offs included in our pricing, which allow your dog to remain in the comfort of their own home when not adventuring. 

  • Douglas Dog Care & Training is fully insured with Profur Canada and licensed, ensuring your dog is protected.
