– Since 2018 –
Jacky Dee here! I’m a loving mom to Zoe The Adventure Dog and the proud owner/operator of Nanaimo’s Dee’s Dogs.
I’ve been hiking with and taking care of animals for as long as I can remember, and since Dee’s Dogs started in 2018 I have been caring for Nanaimo’s canine and small pet community.
I take my profession seriously.
During hikes I fit GPS collars to all dogs, I carry commercial insurance coverage, and am certified in canine first aid.
In other words, your pet’s in safe paws with me!
Pricing depends on the specific service booked and the length of time you require. Head over to my rates page for a breakdown!
I take my professional responsibilities very seriously! Here are some of the ways Dee’s Dogs stands out.
“I look forward to adventuring with your dog!”
Yes. I use the “Time To Pet” booking software, and existing clients can schedule their bookings online at this link.
Please note that online booking is currently available to existing clients only. First-time clients should contact me instead!
No. I have very limited experience introducing dogs to muzzles for the first time, so if your dog requires one it is your responsibility to muzzle train.
Yes! I do carry treats with me, however if your dog has allergies you must provide your own.
No, I will not work with dogs who have a serious history of biting humans.
At my discretion I may provide services to a dog with 1 or 2 very mild instances of situational aggression, but only if they were in circumstances that I won't be putting them into (for example, a dog who does not like men, or has growled at toddlers).
Yes! I prefer using trail-type dog parks and designated off-leash dog beaches as opposed to the small, fenced yard style of parks. I also follow all City of Nanaimo bylaws, one of which limits the amount of dogs under the care of one human to only two dogs.
Not very often! However, there are instances where the weather can be dangerous, such as extremely hot/cold temperatures, or very windy/snowy days. In these cases I may choose to shorten or cancel services altogether depending on the circumstances.
