Not a gig app. Not a hobby. A certified professional team.
Whistler's backcountry is not the place to test a weekend dog sitter. We built Doggy Tales so your dog is handled by trained professionals — every walk, every season.
- A real team, not an app. Every handler is a Doggy Tales team member — not a stranger from an app.
- Certified team only. DogSafe Canine First Aid and Fear Free certified across the entire roster.
- Wilderness-trained. Bear spray, satellite comms, emergency sling & full trauma kit on every single walk.
- Limited capacity on purpose. Max 6 dogs per handler. We turn away clients who don't fit our packs to protect the dogs we already have.
- Fully insured. Liability coverage through The Cooperators — not a personal policy, not a hope and a prayer.
What pet parents say
Rated 5.0 ★ from 32 five-star Google reviews — trusted by Whistler & Pemberton dog families.
We've been using Doggy Tales for over a year now and couldn't be happier. Our dog Bowie comes home tired and happy every single time. The communication is fantastic — we get photos and updates after every walk.
The whole team is amazing. They genuinely care about the dogs and it shows. Our anxious rescue took a few weeks to warm up but they were so patient and understanding throughout the process.
Best dog walking service in Whistler, hands down. Professional, reliable, and our dogs absolutely love their pack walk days. The detailed report cards after each walk are such a nice touch.
Always Learning, Always Growing
Every walker on our team is certified, insured, and actively trained in canine first aid and fear-free handling — because your dog deserves handlers who understand behaviour, body language, and best practices, not just someone who loves dogs.
The gold standard in pet first aid — covering CPR, choking response, wound care, and emergency stabilization. Critical for wilderness walks where help can be hours away.
A science-based approach to reading canine stress signals and handling dogs without force or intimidation. It's how we keep walks safe, calm, and genuinely enjoyable for every dog in the pack.
