Nugget and Friends Dog Walking & Pet Services

Heather is so great! My dog has stayed for several overnight trips and I’ve always felt comfortable and trusting that she was 1) safe, and 2) having a good time. Heather’s location is perfect for beach runs and she limits the number of dogs she cares for so everyone gets lots of attention. I really appreciate the text and photo updates that Heather sends throughout my dog’s stay. It’s nice to hear that everyone is settling in okay and to see photos of the puppy crew having fun outside together. I also trust that Heather is being consistent with training and behaviour expectations for my pup. Highly recommend Heather to others looking for a safe, friendly, and fun boarding experience for their dogs.

We have been clients of Nugget and Friends for 3 years now.Beans, our daughters dog and Lucy our 9 month old pup. We have 100% trust in Heather and Dave and look forward to seeing them weekly. Their dog Nugget has the best smile which melts anyones heart. A truly loving dog business that feels like home. 🐶😍

We got lucky when we were introduced to Heather, Dave & Nugget! When our plans fell through for boarding, my daughter in law suggested we call Heather. Even though she was on maternity leave and not taking dogs at the time - she took ours! Rosie was only 10 months so it was difficult to find someone who would take a puppy and someone we could trust with our young pup. I had a great feeling about them right off the bat and Rosie had the best time! Nugget put up with her and they are great friends now. Rosie looks forward to her weekly hike with the group. I recommend them highly.

Our pup, Winnie hikes weekly and boards (when we travel) with Nugget & Friends! She loves her hikes, and adores Heather and Dave! She’s always excited to be dropped off! :-) They are fabulous with her and the other dogs, incredibly professional — and share lots of communications. We have complete confidence and peace of mind when she’s in their care.

We have never found a better service for our family. Whenever we are in Victoria we send our girl out for hikes with Heather and her troop. She has a special connection with my (difficult to please) dog. She is typically very shy but definitely not with Nugget and friends. Luna has also stayed overnight with Heather and her family. Her communication is impeccable and I love all of the photos that they post on social media. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with Luna and I would recommend her to everyone. We may just have to move to Victoria so Luna can become a regular pack member.
