About Dónal

Hi there, discerning dog owner! Welcome to 4D Dogsitting, the #1 provider of Dog Boarding and Daycare in South Vancouver.

Here at my big, bright apartment I am extremely well set up to take in your pup while you work, or go on trips/vacations. I've been doing this for some time now and have experience with a wide range of dogs and clients.

I can provide constant care, hourly bathroom breaks, care for big dogs 50lb+, take in multiple dogs from different families, and do several walks a day on top of garden playtime. 

I can host a maximum of three dogs at any one time, with plenty of space for them all to be separated into inside, if necessary. 

I can administer oral medication for your pet, serve specialised diets, exercise very big dogs up to 100lbs and more. Let me know your pets needs. I don’t do well with sickly, unfixed or extremely young dogs, and I try not to book those types of dogs in. 

The playful, fun atmosphere I try to cultivate here is best suited for extremely well socialized dogs that do not have separation anxiety. 

I live in a quiet neighbourhood with a large park that allows me tons of options for walks. We can completely avoid other dogs if necessary, and we can do anywhere in the region of 15 mins to 90 mins. Whatever it takes to tire your superstar out. We’ll also try to all get along in the garden and do some fetching, tug or wrestling, as suits the dogs. 

I’m here 24/7 in a 2 bedroom apartment that I live in alone. I leave for a few hours at a time a few times a week to do my urgent errands, otherwise I endeavour to provide constant care. 

Both the deck to the rear of my apartment, and the larger garden downstairs are fully fenced off, with custom perforated fencing so we can slowly introduce dogs to each other.

My dogs live with my partner 90 minutes away right now, but there is a chance they will be here. They are extremely friendly but can be protective of each other initially. I am well used to choreographing meetings with them for extended stay boardings for clients going on vacations. 

Inside I have dog beds, enrichment puzzle toys, balls, a Nerf Gun ball launcher, a folding fence for creating timeout zones, pee pads, water and food bowls and tons of space for them to play. They can get on my sofa, I’d prefer to keep them off my bed but I usually melt and relent!

Contact me to discuss my extremely competitive rates. 

I can’t wait to meet your dog! Tell him I said hi!
