Christmas Holidays.

Posted on by Invermere Pets

Christmas is just around the corner and I will be going back to Vancouver to visit family and friends. After three busy holiday seasons in the valley it’s time to make a trip home. I will be away Dec 22 – Jan 7. The last regular dog walk day will be Thursday Dec 21 and walks will resume Jan 8.

Pet sitting dates are fully booked until the end of the year and a few dates are already booked for the new year. Home visits (once or twice a day) for your feline friends are still available! Contact me if you need daily check-ins for your cats, chickens, hedgehogs or goldfish, or if you need someone to water plants or check the mail!

More walk spots will hopefully be opening up in the new year – stay tuned for new walk days. Also January will see a rate increase – dog walks will be $30/walk. I also hope to introduce a punch card option for the weekly regulars – buy 9, get the 10th free!

Thanks for all the continued support and walks. I hope to keep your dogs and cats happy and healthy – just like they keep me fit and active!

Tell your dog I said HI!

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.

Posted on by Invermere Pets

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!
