Meet the owner

For more than ten years, Release the Hounds has given pet owners and their furry friends plenty of reason to wag their tails. Founded in 2005 by Josh Stevens and Niki Perry (one of the province's foremost trainers) in the basement of their Vancouver home, and under the direction of new president James Woller, the company has since expanded to become one of the largest and fastest growing in the province, providing dog walking and boarding within a safe and professional environment.

“Our clients are people who have chosen to have a dog in their life,” James explains, “and they either want to give them a great experience or they need help with care. Meaning they work twelve hours a day and they don't always have the time to give them the exercise and social experience they know their dog needs. So, we help them along on that path.”

    Wonderfu,l reliable dog walkers and dog care!

    Our "All Canadian" mutt, Charlotte has been hiking with Release the Hounds for almost three years. She is always happy to see her dog walker, Jordanna, and eager to hop into the van, which takes the dogs on various adventures on the North Shore mountains. Charlotte always comes home content and tired. The staff at RTH has been accommodating and supportive whenever we need to change or add a walk.. When we had a sudden change in our summer plans, RTH was helpful arranging weekend dog care, even organizing easy solutions for picking Charlotte up and dropping her off at convenient locations for us!

    A VERY HAPPY CUSTOMER!

    I just moved to Vancouver last May and spoke to a number of different companies before deciding on Release the Hounds, I wanted to make sure I found a good fit for me as well as my dog. I really liked how professional, organized and promptly James got back to me with answers to my questions. I have a Jack Russell who doesn't always fit in, and James was very understanding of that and worked with us to find the right walk and the right pack for Ellie. He was honest with me as well, which for dog owners who have quirky dogs is so refreshing. Based on Ellie's excitement level when she gets picked up I feel confident saying she has a blast. Ellie always comes home happy and tired. Any time I have needed to change her schedule James has been nothing but accommodating.

    The most reliable walking service around!

    We've been with Release the Hounds for at least a year now and everything has been ideal. We signed up with the previous owners and stayed on through the transition to the new ones. The communication and reliability have gone way up since the switch. Based on our pooches excitement level when she's getting picked up I'd guess she really enjoys her time with Steph. RTH can keep walking our puppy as long as everyone is able and willing!

    Active adventures and personal service at RTH

    Since first sending our doodle Brewster out for twice-weekly hikes last summer, we've been very happy with the service at Release the Hounds. Brewster is a super active dog, so we really appreciate the 2-hour North Shore excursions, where he has a chance to run fast and play hard. Jordana-our walker-always takes care to give us detailed updates about their adventures, and returns Brewster home clean as a whistle every time (a remarkable feat given how much he loves to swim and play in mud!). We've received lots of personal attention from James and other staff at RTH and know that we can always reach them with questions, concerns, and special requests.
