Luxury Dog Boarding & Daycare in Vancouver’s West Side
Designed for dogs that thrive on connection. Pawty Mansion provides relationship based care in a quiet, boutique environment.
Located in Kerrisdale directly across from YVR, our sanctuary replaces high volume warehouses with 24/7 supervised care rooted in deep emotional understanding.
Located in Kerrisdale, directly across from YVR, we make travel incredibly easy for families, boarding clients. Beyond convenience, we’ve created a truly unique space for your dog, one built around calm, comfort, and genuine emotional understanding.
We’re a family run, boutique dog care retreat built on consistency. That means no random sitters, no rotating strangers, and no warehouse style environments. Your dog is cared for by the same familiar, trusted caregivers every visit, people who truly know them with 24/7 supervision for complete peace of mind.
What sets us apart is emotional attunement. We don’t just supervise dogs, we understand them. We pay attention to the subtle cues, the way they breathe, how they hold their body, when they need space, and when they’re seeking connection. This kind of attunement helps sensitive, anxious, and high energy dogs feel safe, settle faster, and relax deeply in a real home environment.
Dogs deserve better than crowded kennels and confined spaces. We keep our groups intentionally small, and pets are never caged. Instead, every dog enjoys a calm, structured, home style environment where they can relax, feel secure, and receive individualized attention. Here, dogs sleep the way they would at home on human beds, sofas, or cozy dog beds, never behind bars or in confined kennel‑style spaces.
Our luxury mansion setting offers a peaceful retreat that feels like family. And because dogs thrive with room to explore and decompress, we’re proud to offer one of the largest private outdoor play areas in Vancouver, along with an indoor park featuring premium artificial turf for year round comfort and safe, weather proof play.
At Pawty Mansion, your dog isn’t just cared for.
They’re understood.

The Mansion Advantage: Boutique Care vs. Kennels & Gig Sitters
Gemini said
Choosing the right care for your dog shouldn't feel like a compromise. While many Vancouver facilities focus on industrial warehouse efficiency or high volume crowds, Pawty Mansion was built on a different philosophy: Exclusivity over Crowds.
We’ve traded concrete floors for a indoor turf park and replaced metal cages with a licensed luxury mansion where your dog is free to roam. Whether they are sunbathing in our private greenscape or finding a favorite sofa for a nap, your pet enjoys a professional, small group environment in the heart of Kerrisdale.
This isn’t a side hustle or a part time hobby for us, this is our full-time, 24/7 commitment to providing a boutique sanctuary that truly feels like home.
See how our boutique mansion compares to industrial kennels and unpredictable gig app sitters:
| Pawty Mansion | Big Box Dog Care/Kennels | Gig-Sitters | |
| Guest Volume | Low & Exclusive. We host a small, curated group to ensure every dog gets 1-on-1 attention. | High Volume. Often 40–80+ dogs in one building, leading to noise and sensory overload. | Unpredictable. Some sitters "stack" 10+ dogs in small homes to maximize profit. |
| Freedom of Movement | Total Home Access. Dogs roam the mansion, snooze on sofas, and find their favorite sunny spots. | Confinement. Dogs spend the majority of their time in "suites," glass boxes, or metal kennels. | Limited. Often restricted to a kitchen, a crate, or a single room for "safety." |
| Indoor Play | Indoor Park. Premium, soft turf that mimics real grass - always clean, dry, and soft on joints. | Industrial Floors. Hard rubber or concrete surfaces that can be cold, slippery, and tough on paws. | Carpet/Hardwood. Standard home flooring that isn't designed for high-energy group play. |
| Outdoor Space | Private Canine Grounds. Private, natural space for sniffing, exploring, and sunbathing. | Paved Courtyards. Small, fenced areas with pea gravel or synthetic turf over concrete. | May or may not have outdoor space. |
| Noise Level | Peaceful Sanctuary. Low volume and acoustic mansion walls mean no echoing "kennel" barks. | High Stress. 50+ dogs barking in a concrete warehouse creates a loud, stressful environment. | Varies. Neighbors, street noise, or the sitter's own pets can create an inconsistent environment. |
| Supervision | 24/7 Home Presence. Consistent human caregivers are always on-site, including throughout the night because this is our real job. | Shift-Based. High staff turnover; some facilities rely on cameras only during overnight hours. | Solo Sitter. Often lack professional licensing and many may leave dogs alone for to attend to their real jobs. |
| Flexible Payment Options | Complete Flexibility. We accept all major credit cards, EMT, and interest-free installments via Afterpay (subject to approval). | Rigid Policies. Usually restricted to credit/debit only | Limited & Informal. Often restricted to cash or EMT |
The Residency Standards
To maintain the sanctuary environment that defines the Mansion Advantage, every placement is held to a core standard of harmony and health.
Individualized Over Categorized
We believe in the dog, not the label. Pawty Mansion is breed-neutral and size-neutral. Our selection process is based entirely on individual temperament and social compatibility. From toy breeds to gentle giants, every dog is welcome to apply for residency, provided they thrive in a low-volume, home-based setting.
Residential Etiquette
As a private estate, our residents enjoy an indoor, cage-free lifestyle. To protect this shared environment, all guests must be house trained and respectful of a residential setting. We prioritize dogs that maintain a calm, quiet energy suited for a boutique sanctuary.
Social Harmony
The safety of our collective pack is our highest priority. All residents must be non-aggressive and capable of peaceful coexistence. Our Residency Assessment is the essential foundation of this harmony, ensuring every new applicant is a perfect emotional and behavioural match for our boutique sanctuary.
Health & Wellness Security
To ensure the collective wellbeing of the Mansion, all residents must be up to date on core vaccinations and veterinarian approved flea/tick prevention. We maintain a pristine environment where physical and emotional health go hand in hand.

24/7 dog boarding vancouver
A Home Based, Low Volume Retreat Where Dogs are Never Left Alone
Most boarding facilities close their doors at night. Most dogs sleep in kennels, alone, in the dark. Most “overnight care” means cameras and empty rooms.
Pawty Mansion was created for families who want something gentler, a real home with 24/7 onsite human presence, soft lighting, calm energy, and a predictable rhythm that supports emotional safety.
Here, your dog sleeps in a warm, lived in home. Here, your dog is never left alone.
A Boutique Boarding Experience - Not a Kennel
We are not a facility. We are not a warehouse. We are not a high volume operation.
Pawty Mansion is a home based sanctuary in Kerrisdale, designed for dogs who thrive in:
- small, stable groups
- gentle, supervised play
- sensory friendly spaces
- predictable routines
- continuous human presence
Every dog is known, understood, and cared for with intention.
Daytime - Calm, Enriched, and Unhurried
Your dog’s day unfolds in a peaceful rhythm:
- Soft indoor turf for gentle, joint friendly play
- Cozy rest areas with blankets and warm lighting
- One on one human engagement throughout the day
- Scent based enrichment (snuffle mats, puzzle feeders, foraging games)
- Backyard sun time in a secure, private garden
- Slow, thoughtful introductions to maintain emotional safety
No chaos. No overstimulation. No large, high volume dog groups.
Nighttime - 24/7 Human Presence & Emotional Safety
When the city goes quiet, your dog stays in a home where:
- a human is always onsite
- lighting stays warm and low
- dogs sleep in cozy, supervised spaces
- anxious or sensitive dogs receive gentle reassurance
There is never a moment where dogs are left alone in the house. This is the heart of our 24/7 boarding model and why families who value emotional safety.
Designed for Sensitive, Gentle, and Human-Oriented Dogs
Our 24/7 boarding is especially supportive for:
- dogs who struggle in busy, high volume facilities
- seniors who need a slower pace
- puppies who need structure and supervision
- dogs who bond deeply with humans
We keep our group intentionally small so every dog can decompress, regulate, and feel secure.
A Sensory Friendly Environment
Everything at Pawty Mansion is designed to reduce stress and support emotional wellbeing:
- warm, home like lighting
- soft music
- stable canine friendships
- gentle transitions
- no harsh sounds or chaotic energy
- a real living room, not a concrete floor
This is boarding designed for nervous systems, not numbers.
A Real Home, Not a Kennel
Your dog enjoys:
- couches, rugs, and cozy corners
- supervised sleep spaces
- a lived in environment with human presence
- the comfort of routine and predictability
- a caregiver who is always nearby
This is the opposite of traditional boarding. It’s intimate, selective, and deeply personal.
Serving Vancouver's West Side & Beyond
Families travel to Pawty Mansion because they want a calm, home based alternative to busy facilities. We welcome dogs from:
- Kerrisdale
- Kitsilano
- Dunbar
- Point Grey
- Southlands
- UBC
- Olympic Village
- Yaletown
- Mount Pleasant
- Richmond
- Burnaby
- North Vancouver

Many families are willing to drive a little further for a place that feels like a second home, a quiet, low volume environment where their dog is never left alone.
indoor park for dogs
Our private, indoor park is an exclusive amenity reserved solely for dogs currently enrolled in Pawty Mansion’s daycare and boarding.
The indoor park at Pawty Mansion is a calm, sensory safe 3,000 sq ft space designed for dogs who enjoy gentle play, soft movement, and a predictable environment. Instead of the loud, high energy feel of traditional daycares, this spacious area offers a peaceful rhythm where dogs can explore, stretch, and socialize without overwhelm.
A Soft, Natural Surface That Feels Good Under Paw
Our premium indoor turf mimics the feel of real grass, giving dogs a familiar, grounding texture that’s gentle on joints. It’s ideal for puppies, seniors, and dogs who prefer slow, mindful play. The softness encourages relaxed movement and helps dogs settle comfortably into the space.
A Calm, Low Volume Environment
Every detail of the indoor park is designed to support emotional ease. Small, curated playgroups, soft lighting, create a peaceful atmosphere where dogs can choose how and when they want to engage. It’s a space that feels safe, predictable, and soothing.
A Cozy, Dry Space for Rainy or Wet Days
Vancouver’s weather can be unpredictable, and many dogs struggle to enjoy outdoor time when it’s cold, rainy, or muddy. Our indoor park gives them a warm, dry, comfortable place to play and socialize even on the wettest days. It keeps their routine consistent and their spirits bright, no matter what’s happening outside.
Access to Our Private Outdoor Yard
For dogs who love the fresh air and open space of outdoor play, we also offer access to our private outdoor yard, which spans almost an acre. It allows dogs to enjoy sunshine, sniffing, and natural movement whenever the weather cooperates. Dogs can flow between indoor and outdoor spaces depending on their comfort, energy, and the day’s conditions.
A Space That Reflects Our Philosophy
The indoor park is an extension of Pawty Mansion’s belief that dogs deserve environments that honor their emotional needs. Every choice from the turf to the lighting to the group size is made to help dogs feel safe, understood, and gently supported.
This isn’t just an indoor play area. It’s a sanctuary for soft movement, gentle socialization, and year round comfort.
home boarding and daycare for pets from:
We are present 24/7 and practice true emotional attunement, noticing the subtle ways each dog communicates how they feel, offering reassurance when they seek closeness, and giving space when they need a quiet moment to reset. This moment to moment awareness helps every dog feel understood and secure.
With nearly an acre of private outdoor space for relaxed exploration and a clean, 3,000 sq ft indoor turf area for gentle play, dogs enjoy a peaceful rhythm that balances movement, rest, and connection. Small groups matched by temperament keep the environment calm and prevent overstimulation, while consistent caregivers create a sense of familiarity that helps dogs settle quickly, especially those who are sensitive, anxious, or simply prefer a quieter setting.
Families choose Pawty Mansion because they want boarding that feels personal, steady, and genuinely caring, a place where their dog can feel safe, understood, and emotionally supported while they’re away.
If your dog thrives in calm, low volume environments or needs a more emotionally attuned overnight experience, you can explore our Luxury Dog Boarding page for a deeper look at our boutique, home based approach.
inside our boutique, home based overnight experience
Calm, Home Based, Overnight Care for Dogs Who Need Comfort, Consistency, and Emotional Safety
Luxury dog boarding isn’t about themed suites or decorative add ons. It’s about how your dog feels when they settle in for the night. At Pawty Mansion, luxury means a peaceful, home based environment where dogs sleep in real rooms, move through familiar spaces, and are cared for by the same humans around the clock.
If you’ve read Why Real Home Boarding Works Better for Anxious Dogs Than Kennels, you already know that true comfort comes from predictability, softness, and emotional attunement, not from fancy decor.
Our mansion setting gives dogs the space, quiet, and gentle rhythm they need to feel safe and deeply at home.
A Real Home for the Night - Not a Kennel or Facility
Most “luxury” boarding options are still kennels with upgraded bedding. Pawty Mansion is different.
Your dog stays inside a real home, a spacious, light filled mansion with quiet rooms, soft corners, an indoor turf play area for gentle movement, and nearly an acre of private outdoor space. There are no cages, no isolation rooms, and no industrial flooring.
Instead, dogs enjoy calm indoor spaces, natural movement, cozy sleeping areas, familiar caregivers, and a predictable nighttime routine. Luxury here is not a theme, it’s a feeling.
Small Groups Overnight, Curated with Intention
True luxury is never high volume.
We welcome only a small number of overnight guests so every dog receives individualized attention and emotional support. This allows us to maintain a peaceful environment where dogs can decompress, settle, and sleep without stress.
If you’ve explored The Real Difference Between Stress, Fear, and Anxiety in Dogs, you know how deeply environment shapes a dog’s emotional experience, especially overnight.
Our small group model supports thoughtful introductions, balanced social time, natural rest, and gentle nighttime transitions. Dogs who struggle in busy facilities often thrive here because the environment is quiet, predictable, and deeply human.
24/7 Presence - Your Dog is Never Alone
At Pawty Mansion, dogs are not something we fit into our day, our entire day is built around them. This is our full time life, our rhythm, our home. There is always a human present, awake, attentive, and emotionally tuned in.
Dogs don’t sleep in a separate building or behind a closed door. They sleep in the same home as their caregivers, surrounded by soft lighting, calm energy, and the steady reassurance of someone nearby. For sensitive or anxious dogs, this constant presence is grounding. For confident dogs, it simply feels natural like being with family.
Consistency creates safety. Safety creates rest. And rest creates the kind of deep, peaceful sleep that only happens when a dog knows they are not alone.
A Calm Attuned Rhythm from Morning to Night
Our boarding experience mirrors the gentle, home based rhythm of our daycare.
Dogs move through their day with outdoor exploration, natural breaks, quiet rest, soft transitions, and emotionally attuned care.
Evenings are peaceful and predictable, with cozy settling time, soft lighting, and a calm environment that helps dogs unwind. Nights are restful, safe, and supervised.
This is the opposite of the loud, high stimulation boarding model.
Ideal for Dogs that Need Peace, Predictability, and Comfort
Our luxury boarding is designed for dogs who prefer calm over chaos, need a home like environment, struggle in kennels or busy facilities, enjoy small groups, benefit from consistent caregivers, feel safer with 24/7 human presence, and thrive in gentle, emotionally attuned care.
To understand how our daytime rhythm supports this, you can explore Dog Daycare Vancouver – What Boutique Care Really Means.
This isn’t boarding for every dog, it’s boarding for dogs who flourish in peaceful, curated spaces.
A Mansion Sanctuary with Real Outdoor Space
Luxury also means room to move.
Our private green space gives dogs the freedom to explore naturally, sniff and wander, sunbathe, stretch their legs, and enjoy fresh air without pressure. It’s peaceful, secure, and designed for emotional wellbeing.
The indoor turf play area offers a soft, safe space for movement during rainy evenings or early mornings, keeping the rhythm gentle and comfortable year round.
Luxury Means Emotional Safety - Not Decor
Luxury is not the house.
Luxury is how your dog feels inside it.
The mansion simply gives us the space to create calm energy, gentle pacing, quiet rest, soft transitions, and emotionally attuned care. Dogs settle more deeply when their environment feels like home, not like a facility.
This is what dogs remember. This is what parents feel. This is what luxury truly is.
Experience Boutique, Home Based Luxury Dog Boarding
If you’ve been searching for overnight care where your dog can feel calm, understood, and truly at home, Pawty Mansion offers a sanctuary unlike anything else in Vancouver.
Luxury isn’t about extravagance. It’s about emotional ease. And that’s what we do best.
For more info on our boarding, you can explore our main dog boarding page.
Daycare at Pawty Mansion feels like a quiet daily retreat. Dogs arrive to a relaxed atmosphere where the day unfolds naturally. There are no crowded playrooms, no overwhelming noise, and no fast paced routines. Instead, dogs settle into a steady rhythm with plenty of time to explore, rest, socialize, and enjoy natural movement.
Our property includes one acre of secure outdoor land, giving dogs the freedom to stretch, sniff, and enjoy fresh air throughout the day. This amount of space is rare in Vancouver and especially meaningful for dogs who live in neighbourhoods such as Yaletown, UBC, Dunbar, Kitsilano, Olympic Village, Downtown, Kerrisdale, South Granville, and Marpole. For dogs who spend most of their time in smaller indoor spaces, having access to a full acre of outdoor room provides a level of relief and enrichment that traditional daycare settings cannot offer.
Inside the mansion, dogs enjoy a calm home environment with soft surfaces, natural light, and plenty of cozy areas to relax. The atmosphere is intentionally quiet, allowing dogs to settle easily and feel secure. They are free to move between rooms and choose spaces that match their energy level, whether they want a nap, a quiet corner, or a soft bed near their friends.
Our indoor play environment adds another layer of comfort. The space is close to three thousand square feet and finished with pet grade artificial turf, creating a clean, cushioned, non slip surface for gentle play. There are toys, soft beds, and separate sections for small dogs, seniors, and larger playful dogs. Enzyme treatments keep the turf fresh and sanitary, making it a reliable indoor option during rainy weather or on hot days when certain breeds, such as English and French Bulldogs, need cooler conditions.
Unlimited monthly dog daycare is available for families who work frequently and want their dog to experience gentle, full‑day care on a consistent basis. This option offers exceptional continuity and stability, allowing dogs to settle into a predictable rhythm that supports their emotional well being with no need to count visits or manage daily bookings.
Pawty Mansion is a licensed dog daycare provider in Vancouver and follows strict standards for safety, supervision, and cleanliness. We keep our numbers intentionally low so every dog receives the attention they deserve. Playgroups are small and matched by temperament. Resting areas are always available. Outdoor time is secure and structured. Every part of the environment is designed to help dogs feel grounded and emotionally balanced.
Consistency is an important part of our daycare philosophy. The same caregiver welcomes your dog each day, supports their routine, and guides their interactions. This steady presence helps dogs feel understood and safe, especially those who are sensitive, anxious, or deeply bonded to their families. When dogs know who is caring for them, they relax more deeply and enjoy their day with confidence.
Families choose Pawty Mansion because they want a daycare experience that feels calm, personal, and genuinely caring. They want their dog to spend the day somewhere that supports emotional well being, not a warehouse filled with noise and constant activity. Our environment is ideal for small dogs, seniors, rescues, sensitive personalities, and larger dogs who prefer gentle play and steady companionship.
If your dog thrives in calm environments and values connection, our daycare offers a thoughtful and nurturing experience that feels like a true daily retreat.
For dogs who need a more emotionally attuned, small group experience, our Luxury Dog Daycare page offers a closer look at our calm, curated environment.

Consistent Caregivers Who Truly Know Your Dog
Luxury daycare means your dog isn’t passed between rotating staff.
At Pawty Mansion, your dog is cared for by the same humans every day, people who understand their personality, their preferences, and their emotional cues. This consistency builds trust, confidence, and a sense of belonging.
Dogs settle faster, feel safer, and form real relationships when their world is predictable.
A Calm, Attuned Rhythm - Not Constant Stimulation
Luxury isn’t loud. Luxury isn’t chaotic. Luxury isn’t “tire them out at all costs.”
Our day is built around gentle play, natural breaks, quiet rest, outdoor exploration, soft transitions, and emotional attunement.
Dogs move through their day the way they would at home with space to breathe, time to rest, and freedom to choose where they feel most comfortable. This is the opposite of the “always on” warehouse model.
Designed for Dogs Who Thrive in Peaceful Environments
Our luxury daycare is ideal for dogs who prefer calm over chaos, enjoy small groups, love home like environments, appreciate predictable routines, enjoy gentle socialization, do well with consistent caregivers, and feel more at ease in quiet, spacious settings.

behavioural transparency policy
Our Commitment to Full Transparency & Safer Care
Every dog deserves care that is tailored to their unique needs. To provide that level of safety and attentiveness, we rely on complete honesty from pet parents during intake. The Behavioural Transparency Policy was created to ensure we have the behavioural information required to keep every guest secure, comfortable, and supported.
Even the most loving, well‑trained dogs can experience:
- Separation anxiety
- Escape or “runner” tendencies
- Prey drive
- Reactivity or fear‑based behaviours
- Stress in new environments
When these details are not disclosed, it limits our ability to protect your dog and others. The Behavioural Transparency Policy ensures we receive accurate behavioural information so we can implement the right safety measures from the moment your dog arrives.
What We Ask of Pet Parents
As part of the Behavioural Transparency Policy, all clients must:
- Report any behavioural concerns, past incidents, or tendencies
- Update us if behaviours change over time
- Be transparent about triggers, routines, and comfort strategies
This information is never judged - it simply allows us to care for your dog to the highest standard.
What We Do in Return
With full transparency, we can provide:
- Tailored safety protocols for each dog
- Additional supervision where needed
- Secure intake procedures
- Behaviour‑appropriate groupings and enrichment
- A calm, predictable environment that reduces stress
Our goal is always the same: your dog’s wellbeing, safety, and emotional comfort.
A Safer Future for Every Guest
The Behavioural Transparency Policy is now a core part of our operations. It reflects our belief that honesty, preparation, and partnership with pet parents are essential to exceptional care. Together, we can ensure every dog enjoys a safe, joyful stay - every time
