Little Pack Welcomes You with Open Paws
Little Pack is a locally owned and operated dog walking service located in the Westshore area. I'm an experienced dog walker, and spend most of my time learning and striving to be a reliable and trustworthy leader for the packs I get to work with. I understand the unique bond that forms between humans and their furry family members, and I strive to make sure the pups in my care are safe, secure, and having a great time while out on our walks.
I limit my walks to no more than six dogs per walk so that I can provide a safe, structured, and fun experience for each pup. We take advantage of designated dog friendly trails in the Westshore area. Little Pack services Langford, Colwood and select areas of View Royal.
I'm fully insured and bonded with Pro Fur and Intact Insurance and am Walks & Wags pet first aid certified, so you can rest assured your pup is in good hands.
THIS IS US
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME
My name is Rocky and I have been living in Victoria since 2002. I am passionate about animals, especially dogs, and I’m happiest when I’m outdoors hiking with my packs. I started Little Pack to be with my yellow lab Noosh every day. I like offering dogs exercise and mental stimulation all while hanging out with their friends. Structure is key and dogs in my care come off the trail happy and tired.
I developed my love for dogs at a very young age. I grew up on a farm in the Kootenays and if left to my own devices my family could usually find me outside with the animals. I would spend hours with the dogs and the horses, making sure everyone was fed and getting the love they needed. I have a strong connection with dogs in particular thanks to my Grandmother who was a real life Dr Doolittle. I feel very grateful that I am able to take care of other peoples pets when they need the extra help.
We walk every day no matter what the weather is doing! I am constantly reading, taking courses, and keeping up to date on training with dogs to ensure I can provide the best service possible. The single most important thing to me is safety. I fully appreciate the trust that is involved with handing your pet over to someone else outside of your own orbit. I will put every effort into ensuring the balance of the packs. Our walks consist of structure, focus and lots of fun! Being allowed to explore the sights and sounds of the trails with new friends and a strong supportive leader is the every day goal.
Little Pack is the perfect way for me to spend my time doing exactly what I love.
