Some reviews from our happy dog owning clients!
Valerie Cook
Our pup (Maple) has been boarded at Paradise Kennels twice now and I would highly recommend. Maple has come home happy, healthy and well cared for both times. She has no hesitation boarding the doggy transport van (hops right in without us prompting) when picked up and you can tell she has affection for the handler that brings her back. I think they are one of the few kennels that keep dogs engaged the entire day. The property is every dog’s dream, off leash adventures, swimming (seasonal), play area, and the owners make sure socialization and play is priority for the day. You will be able to see your dog in play every day via facebook posts. They also make sure your pup is bathed before return (love this service).

I’m so happy I found Paradise Kennels to watch my dog. He comes back exhausted and happy. The pick up, delivery and bath/nail trim are great perks that are included. This time I opted to pay for a groom. The groomer did a lovely job. Thank you Paradise Kennels!

My dog loves it there! It’s the only kennel in which she willingly goes, and she always looks happy in the daily Facebook videos. My dog has high standards, like me, and if she approves…so do I. I recently needed to book a kennel for my dog while attending a 42 day work course in Ontario (no dogs allowed), despite the extra cost of flying my dog West, I was happy to do it. Paradise Kennels is the only kennel I can trust and my dog is always happy to go there. For me, that’s far more important than price. With Paradise Kennels, I can relax knowing she’s getting to live her best life in my absence!

Paradise Kennels is a truly amazing place to board your puppers! We love sending our dog to Paradise – she gets 12 hours of play time, lots of socialization and so much love from the handlers. The taxi picks her up and drops her off back at home, they bathe and trim her nails, and email communication is always prompt and friendly. I enjoy the daily Facebook video posts to watch her playing! Highly recommend Paradise Kennels, thank you for taking such good care of our girl!

I would give paradise kennels a 10 out of 5 stars if possible! I can truly say that my families blue heeler (Sadie, if you’re wondering) has benefitted from her time at this establishment. She always seemed super happy in the videos we received and the dog taxi service was super convenient!

I went to Barbados for 2 weeks I booked a luxury suite for two weeks for my three dogs and I received multiple videos of my dogs running and playing every day! The taxi service was great and my dogs were clean and tired when I got home. Loved my experience here!
Eric Fladhamer
My dog has never been looking better! We received many many videos and pictures daily so we could see our little girl flourish in there amazing dog parks. And i also cant say enough about the supper friendly taxi service. Wonderful place, would definitely recommend!!

I had a last minute family emergency and I needed somewhere that would take my two dogs with a days noticed, the staff at paradise kennels were incredibly accommodating. They picked both my dogs up FREE OF CHARGE!! I receive countless videos and photos everyday, they were swimming and going on off leash walks. It was so nice to see my dogs have such a fun time, it greatly reduced my stress during this stressful time for me and my family. No place I’d rather send my dogs than paradise kennels!
Diana Burwell
Thanks Jennifer for taking such good care of Charlie! We were a bit nervous leaving him in a kennel, but once we went out and saw the facility and met you we knew we made the right choice! We are so happy we found a great place for Charlie to go to when we have to go out of town! He’s already looking forward to his next stay in May!!
Marguerite Focht
Paradise Kennels is an absolutely fabulous place to leave your dog when you travel and you can’t take them with you. They have a fabulous facility that has highly trained staff that allows your dog to have plenty of exercise, fresh air, socialization and playtime.
My dog has stayed at Paradise Kennels periodically over the past few years and each time I pick him up he has come home relaxed and stress free!
Many, many thanks to Jennifer and her staff!!!

My family were at ease knowing Sam was being kept busy and socialised while we were away. This was his first time away from us since we adopted him almost a year ago. I will definitely recommend Paradise Kennels. Day 3 being home and Sam is still sorting him self being back. He is probably looking for all of his puppy friends
Donna Buchanan
Thank you , thank you so much for those fantastic pictures. Makes my heart so happy to see what fun Ted and Maggie are having. It is so good to see them running and playing with their new friends. Posting the pictures is such a good idea. Paradise Kennels is the best place for Ted and Maggie to have a vacation too. It is so nice when we go on a trip to send them to such a great place. I have recommended Paradise many, many times.
Susan Jackson
To Jennifer and her team, Jett had an amazing time with his pack. They were a joyous bunch of dogs to watch on your videos. You know when he’s had a great time, when you dropped him off and he watched out the window till you were gone, and he is still waiting for your return. Now he’s stuck with just us, and we are not near as much fun as he had with you and the dogs.
Victoria Catherine
Paradise kennels is like no other place we researched. The staff are wonderful with our dogs and the dogs love going. The last couple times peter and lily were picked up they ran to the Paradise van! Our minds are at ease when the dogs are at “camp”, we love watching the videos on Facebook, and the dogs come home happy (maybe a bit sad to be home) & exhausted. You can’t put a price on that. Jennifer and team are a great addition to our lives!
Lori Kell
In the last couple of months our Bernedoodle, Opie, has been to PK 3 times. He loves it and comes home very happy! The staff are so good with him and we love the fact he runs free and is not confined…. barking his head off all day long. The transportation pick up is absolutely the best and we feel fortunate to have found this kennel where he can run free and swim in the pond with his new-found friends several times a day. It’s really nice to watch the Facebook posts too. Thanks Jennifer
Cathy Pitts Roy
Honestly, can’t even remember when our two went anywhere else! Once I get their food ready……Pete parks himself at the window until the van arrives. Both he and Archie absolutely love their time at Paradise Kennels! They come home clean (thank you!), exhausted and content. No anxiety, no reluctance – they are at home at Paradise and that gives us such a sense of comfort, too! Jennifer and the team absolutely know their stuff and it shows. The addition of videos is so much fun and so appreciated. We never even knew Archie was such a water dog. Thank you so much for creating a home away for the boys whenever we jet off to our own adventures. Without you, we wouldn’t enjoy our time away near as much! Pete usually waits at the window for at least 10 minutes after being dropped off – he’s pretty certain you’ll be back for him! Thank you!
Heidi Pittman
One dog had an injury, the other was having seizures at the time and we were very worried about leaving them. We really appreciated being able to see them so happy when they were out for their walks. Not only did Paradise Kennels provide peace of mind, but they accommodated some special requests and the boys came back very tired (a good thing) and content. Well-run businesses are hard to find these days and you guys did an excellent job. Can’t thank you guys enough!
Krista Ivanov
We are very cautious about where we have Randi stay while we are away. We researched many places and wanted to make sure our active dog was well taken care of. We visited Paradise Kennels and liked what we saw. Randi has stayed there a couple of weeks each year for the past four years. She’s happy when the van pulls up to take her to doggie camp. All the staff there do a terrific job — she’s tuckered out when she comes home!
Yvonne Adamski
My dog Pippa feels safe here. (In another place she was shaking when going back) At Paradise, Pippa is put into a play group that suits her. She gets lots of space and time to play outside with her new friends during the day. She can go swimming in a pond. At night she has her own space so she can sleep. Pippa will continue coming back.
Lisa Campbell
Our dog Simon absolutely loves this place!! I have very high standards for our dog and was so relieved to find paradise kennels after relocating here to Calgary and having other bad experiences with kennels. Their taxi is a huge convenience and knowing how much exercise he gets is amazing! Simon goes crazy when they come to pick him up so I know how happy he is to return. The Facebook videos are great when I’m away and see how much fun he is having!! Jennifer and her team are the best I’ve ever met!
Anne-Marie Wiedemann
We’ve taken our pup Rowdy here twice now, and both times he came home happy, healthy, and tired. We love the video updates – it’s clear he loves it there just from watching him. He also really benefits from all the socialization – his dog manners after coming back have definitely improved. Thank you Paradise for taking such good care of him! It’s a relief knowing he’s in good hands while we’re away.
