T
he Sea to Sky corridor is one of British
Columbia’s adventure epicentres with majestic
mountains, pristine beaches, towering trees
and epic, natural beauty. It’s no wonder that the
area attracts pet owners looking to explore the
great outdoors along with their four-legged friends.
The pet-friendly communities of Squamish, Whistler
and Pemberton have no shortage of breathtakingly
scenic excursions. Whether it’s to hang out one-onone, or make new two and four-legged friends, an
extensive list of parks, trails, and beaches to explore
means there’s something for everyoner.
Squamish
Located about an hour’s drive north of Vancouver
and just 45 minutes to Whistler’s south, Squamish
B.C. is bordered by rivers that connect to the Pacific
Ocean to the west, and granite-rock cliff faces
to the east. Its proximity to untamed nature and
lots of wildlife has influenced its choice to be an
One of them is located on Bailey Street in
downtown Squamish and the other is on Glacier
View Drive in the Garibaldi Highlands, which
is located about a 15 min. drive northeast of
downtown.
Squamish is also connected to and surrounded
by networks of trails. The Alice Lake Trail Network,
located 16 km north of Squamish, is dog friendly in
marked areas.
Brohm Lake Park, meanwhile, has a stunning
trail called the Tantalus Lookout, and is located
between Squamish and Whistler.
The trails along the Stawamus River dike in Valley
Cliff are located just south of Squamish. Nexen
Beach, on the Pacific’s Howe Sound in downtown
Squamish, is connected to a loop trail.
Judd Beach in Brackendale is nine kilometres
north of Squamish along the Squamish River and is
frequented by locals. The Chief boasts dog-friendly trails with local dog
owners recommending you take your pup along
the backside of the mountain.
Whistler
Whistler has long been a destination for pets
that travel with their owners, and like each of the
Sea to Sky communities listed here, it’s home to
animal-loving locals who keep pet-friendly services

at the northeast side of One Mile Lake Park. It is also
the centre of a trail network of various difficulties.
For all-day off-leash parks check out Arfa Dog
Park at Alpha Lake and Bayley Park at Cheakamus
Crossing. The base of Mt. Currie touches down east of
Pemberton, and is now home to a five kilometre
base to sub-alpine hiking trail that runs along the
mountain’s southwest side.
The aptly named Barking Bay is at the south end of
Rainbow Park and boasts a dog-friendly beach on
which to relax. Canine Cove at Lost Lake is also a
great place for four-legged friends to splash around.
Pemberton
Situated about 30 kilometres north of Whistler,
Pemberton is also home to a network of trails and
is a great destination for animal excursions. It has an
off-leash designated area, as well as on-leash trails
and parks.
One Mile Lake, located just south of Pemberton
off Hwy 99, has the one and only designated off-
Bathtub Trail, shared by bikers and hikers, follows
the edge of the Lillooet River and can be accessed
right from the northeast end of town. It links up to
other trails too.
Mosquito Hill and Lake area is also shared by
bikers and hikers and offers up a variety of trails
with different views and difficulties. It’s located
about an eight kilometer drive northeast of
Pemberton village.
Check out the Pemberton Valley Trail Map, which
includes an extensive list of local trails to explore,

EVENT GUIDE
BY AARAKSH SIWAKOTI
W
histler is a go-to destination for fun with
friends, whether it’s skiing and mountain
biking or partying and dining out.
Still, it can be a little “ruff” leaving behind your
furry friends as you dash out the door to a new
adventure. Don’t fret though, Whistler offers many
opportunities for you and your four-legged pals to
go out and some fun together too.
Make a splash
If excitement is what you seek with your canine
companion, then DockDogs is the event for you.
The DockDogs Canadian Western Regionals will be
held right here in Whistler from Aug. 28 – 31. Top
dogs from around the region will be competing for
the western title in four disciplines: Big Air, Extreme
Vertical, Speed Retrieve, and Iron Dog.
“You can expect a lot of excitement,” says Mike
Chiasson, president and CEO of DockDogs Canada.
“People who saw it last year will know that it’s just
non-stop excitement with the dogs. You’re going
to see dogs that jump five feet and you’ll see dogs
hat jump over 25 feet! We’re going to have a world
record holder dog on hand to put on a show for
everybody as well. It’s just great family fun and we
will be putting on a non-stop exciting show from
early in the morning until the night.”

around Whister. / photo by suzanne grant
You and your pup can come enjoy the festivities
and even partake every day of the competition.
The only requirements: you must be over seven
years old and your pooch has to be over six
months old.
According to Chiasson, your dog is going to be
hesitant to jump into the pool the first time, but if
you can get them to do it once, “they’ll be hooked,
both the owner and the dogs.”
There will be lots of activities on hand for all who
attend, including a twist on the 50/50 lottery that
has the dogs choosing the winner.
“We’re going to have 100 tennis balls that are all
numbered,” says Chiasson. “At the end of day we
will put all the balls in the pool and the dog will
go in and pick out the winner. It’s a lot of fun for
everyone.”
Festivities to drool over
The Whistler Ski and Snowboard Festival (WSSF)
is not just for humans; the event also hosts quite a
few activities for you and your pets.
From Xtreme Airdogs, where you can give dock
diving a try with your dog, to ZEN Training,
which is obedience and agility training, WSSF is
a weekend of fun for you and your four-legged
buddy.

/ photo by catherine power-chartrand
In 2014, WSSF held DogFest on April 18 – 19 where
humans and pets alike got to enjoy all the activities
together and even had a chance to witness some
professional K9 units demonstrate their work,
sniffing out explosives and narcotics.
Owners also got to partake in a Walk of Shame
Dog Parade where they created humourous, dogshaming signs for their naughty pets and walked
around the village.
WAG your tail
Whistler Animal Galore (WAG) shelter is host to
many events throughout the year to which you
can bring your pets.
One such event is the annual K9 Wine & Dine
fundraiser, where you and your canine pals get
to enjoy a night of dinner together. The event,
which was held last year on Sept. 14, served
canine guests a three-course meal of “yappetizers,”
homemade meat loaf finished with a secret blend
called Pinot Growlio, then as the grand finale, they
were brought a pupcake for dessert. Their human
companions also got to take a break and enjoy
their own buffet-style meal.

year’s Walk of Shame. / photo by rik parker
Although the date has not been set for this year’s
event, it will be held in September again and
organizers say you can expect a bigger and better
time at the extravagant black-tie event.
“The event is going to be pretty awesome this year,”
says Cat Mazza, promotions and communications
coordinator. “We have people walk the red carpet
with their dogs, and people usually dress up their
dogs in ties and pretty dresses. Everybody has a
good time whether you bring your dog or not. It’s
just a fun night to dress up and get out. We have
great music, great food, and it’s just a really fun time
for everyone.”
WAG also hosts several events and fundraisers
throughout the year, including their annual dog
wash where you can come out and socialize at
the barbecue and have your dog washed at the
same time.
All the events require a donation with proceeds
going back to the WAG animal shelter.

Pet Sitter: Anna Webb
Place of Work: Whistler Dog Sitting
Q:Can you describe what Whistler Dog
Sitting Does?
A:We offer one-on-one in-hotel and home pet
sitting, adventure walks for dogs, as well
as house and pet sitting services. Q: What areas does Whistler Dog Sitting serve?
A: Anywhere in Whistler — from Emerald to
Function Junction. Q: How long have you been pet sitting for?
A:Privately for a long time, more
recently working with Whistler hotels and
locals for almost two years as Whistler Dog
Sitting. Q:Why did you decide to open up a pet
sitting business?
A: I had been pet/house sitting for a long time
and saw a niche in supplying a service
to hotel guests that need someone to take
care of their pet while they explore Whistler.
I have always loved animals and love the
outdoors, so I wanted to incorporate these
aspects into my day-to-day life. Q: What kinds of animals do you pet sit?
A: You name it we can take care of it! I haven’t
had too many odd requests though and
generally we take care of dogs and cats.

SITTER
Q&A
Q: What is involved?
A:As it’s a one-on-one service we can cater
to whatever an owner needs from us. Every
animal is different, so I make sure to get as
much information from the owner first and
adjust the service we provide to fit. Some
dogs are very social and others are not. Some
are not suited to the general group walks
and sometimes all they need is someone
to stay with them and make sure they are
comfortable and happy while the owner is
out. Q:Describe something hilarious that
happened at work this week with the
animals.
A:I have been house sitting for a local couple
and taking care of their cat while they are
away. She is so friendly and loves pets,
cuddles and attention all the time! If you stop
petting her she will literally pick your hand
up with her paw and put it on her head for
you to continue patting her. She particularly
likes to be cuddled and pet early morning, so
sometimes I will be woken up to her picking
up my hand for a little scratch behind the ear!
Even though she has woken me up, I can’t
help but laugh at her every time she makes
this move for attention. Q: What is the most important thing about
your job?
A:I think being prepared for anything. Weather,
environment and situations can change all
the time and to many people these pets
are like their children. Being prepared for
emergency situations are essential. Talking to
the customer first to gauge exactly what the
animal is going to need from our sitters is key
as well.
Q: What’s your favourite part of the job?
A:Obviously hanging out with all the wonderful
animals! Q:Describe something unexpected about the
business. Something you didn’t anticipate
before starting.
A:Before I started Whistler Dog Sitting I was
Sh
unsure just how busy we would be (as you are
with any new business). With the abundance
of dog-friendly hotels and facilities, Whistler is
Hailey Smith from Whistler
Dog Sitting / photo submitted
such a popular place for people to bring their
dogs on vacation. Many locals have pets of
their own that sometimes need our services
too. Q:Do you have pets of your own?
A:Not at the moment. I have had so many
pets growing up that I do miss having them
around. I have taken the last few years to
travel and explore the world and I would really
like to adopt a dog as soon as the time is right.

Nora

/ photo submitted
Richard Wyne
Border collie, German
shepherd cross
Q: What’s Nora’s job title? A:Nora is a senior avalanche rescue dog at
Whistler Blackcomb Q: What method was used to train Nora? A:Search training for Nora included — and still
includes — a lot of hide and seek type of
exercises. We train for obedience to keep her
under control, agility to navigate the harsh
environment of the mountains and technique
to maximize efficiency. Q: What was the biggest challenge while
training Nora? A:Nora is a “soft” dog. She is motivated by
affection and praise. Conversely, she is
demotivated by even the slightest harsh tone
in the voice. Q: What talents does Nora have? A:Her best talent, of course, is she can find you
when you are buried or missing. What else
comes close to that?
Q: Does Nora have any weird habits? A:Nora loves heights. Obviously this is a good
thing when we are in or suspended below a
flying helicopter. But she is always the first one
to the edge of a cliff or any place she can get a
great view.
Q: What’s the most rewarding part of Nora’s job? A:So many aspects are hugely rewarding. When
Nora or any of the other dogs are working
a site, fewer searchers (people) need to be
exposed to the risk. Clearly, keeping our
friends and co-workers out of harms way is
very valuable. Knowing my partner, Nora, has
the ability to affect the lives of people in need
is truly unique. And continuing to validate
the complete trust I have in her abilities is
continually gratifying. Q: How would you describe Nora’s personality? A:Sweetheart.
Q: What’s the biggest job Nora has ever done?
Q: What are Nora’s hobbies? A:Something she did allowed her to do some
great work later in her career. Several years ago
A:She loves to roll in the snow, play football and
she dug herself out of a very large avalanche
search for people.
