Dog Walking

Each dog walk is customized to meet your individual pet’s needs. We offer on-leash or off-leash services depending upon your dog’s preference and recall response. We always prioritize your pet’s choice & well-being over speed & convenience.

Dog Daycare

We’re not your traditional “drop off and play” dog daycare experience. We focus on your dogs’ physical and mental wellness by curating activities and experiences that balance physical, cognitive, problem-solving, and calming skills.

Buddy Hikes

Our semi-private outings are a great option for social dogs. All dogs go through a detailed vetting process to ensure they’re a good match. While on our hikes, your dog will enjoy the outdoors, fulfill exercise needs, and hang with a buddy!

Testimonial

Vancouver’s Best Dog Walking and Daycare Happy Clients

I felt as if I’d struck gold when I hired Fontaine to look after my two Russell terriers for a few days. She is professional, knowledgeable about dogs and very confident handling them. As a dog trainer, I am very particular about who I put my trust in with my own dogs, but I had no reservations at all about Fontaine. My dogs obviously adored her, too! She kept us updated daily with pictures and a recap of their day. We felt that we could truly relax knowing they were in great hands.

Fontaine has first-hand experience navigating corporate life and pet ownership and she’s made just to make Happy Tails Urban Adventures not just another pet care business. Our greatest satisfaction is in being able to provide pets and their parents with the reprieve they both need to really enjoy their time together.
