2024 & More!

Dog walks, pet sitting dates, and time away in 2024!

Invermere Pet Services now offers dog walks four days a week. Reach out to sign up for Monday, Wednesday, Thursday or Saturday walk spots. These days fill up fast!

I will be taking a bit more time away in 2024. My family is in Vancouver and spending time with them is becoming more important. I’ll always give lots of notice for my time off. * I’ll be away: Feb 25 – March 5 and May 11 – May 19 and June 23 – July 10 *

There are limited pet sitting dates available in the spring. Contact me for rates, dates and details to keep your pet happy and healthy while you enjoy your vacation!

Thanks to all my clients and good dogs and cats for trusting me and keeping me active and busy! I love my daily walks and adventures. I appreciate the support! : ) Shannen

Welcome to Summer!

Reminder *** I will be away June 27 – July 12! ***

I’m off to the coast (home) for a visit with family and friends and to work my other, other, other job with BC Bike Race!

Summer in the Columbia Valley is amazing, there’s new snow on the mountains (!!) the lake is refreshing and the trails are perfect for running, hiking or riding. During the hot summer days our dog walks might get a little shorter, slower and shadier. I bring water with me on all walks and try to get to the lake or other water source whenever possible.

Pet sitting dates are almost fully booked from July to November. I only have a few potential spaces available. As well, I will likely (hoping!) be away during the first two weeks of December to have a much needed vacation and get some SUN before the cold of winter hits.

As always, I want to say a huge THANK YOU to all the awesome dogs and cats (and the people!) for all the support. The dog walk days keep me fit and active and I love to get as many kitty cuddles as possible!

Thanks for all the love,
Shannen

Pet-Friendly Invermere, BC.

Invermere is a beautiful town in the East Kootenays and Columbia Valley. A picturesque community surrounded by stunning mountain peaks and Lake Windermere – the start of the Columbia River. There are so many great pet-friendly activities that you can do with your dog, too!

If your dog enjoys swimming, you will love to kayak or paddleboard through the wetlands or on the lake. Don’t fret, SUP rentals are available from Syndicate Board Shop. After your paddle dive in to well-earned snack and refreshing cocktail from ULLR Bar on their dog-friendly garden in the sun!

There are so many great hikes in the area. You can book a guided hike adventure with Playwest Mountain Experience to help you find the best trails!

Many of the hotels are also pet friendly. You can check-in to Invermere Inn & Suites right downtown, book your stay at Copper Point and enjoy a round of golf, or spend the night at The Kanata Inns in Invermere.

Share the adventure with your pet and enjoy your visit to the fullest in Invermere BC!

Spring in the Valley

Winter is slowly melting away and spring has finally arrived in the Columbia Valley! I am loving the longer days and warmer temperatures. This certainly makes all my dog walks much more enjoyable.

Spring break means many families had the opportunity to travel and that means I am busy pet sitting. Thank you so much to all my friends and clients for trusting me with your pets.

Many clients that had to postpone trips have now been able to reschedule and book me for pet sitting. My availability is limited in the coming months, but I will always do my best to make it work! I am available for dog walking on Monday, Thursday and Sunday – contact me to book a time!

Looking ahead to spring and summer… I will be taking a quick visit to Vancouver April 10-19. I will also be away July 1-5!

Thanks again for keeping me busy, fit and active, I definitely have a spring in my step these days. I love all the good dogs and cute cats that I meet… seriously, your dog is my favourite!
