For years, Darcy lived life on the road, working long shifts in the oilfield, moving from site to site, and spending more time away than at home. It was a demanding lifestyle—one that provided financial stability but little else. Something always felt missing.

Through all the highs and lows, there were two constants in his life: his dogs, Luna and Milo. No matter how long the days got or how exhausting the work became, coming home to them was a reminder of what truly mattered.

The Turning Point

Anyone who has worked away from home knows the toll it takes—not just on themselves, but on the life they leave behind. For Darcy, every time he packed his bags and left for another long rotation, he felt that pull, the growing realization that he was missing out on the things that made him happiest.

He wasn’t alone in this. Over the years, he met countless others in the same position—people who loved their pets but struggled to find reliable care when work took them away. That was the spark.

It wasn’t just about spending more time with his own dogs; it was about helping others who faced the same challenges he did.

A New Beginning in Kitimat

Darcy knew he needed a change. He wanted a slower, more intentional life, one where he could wake up every morning and do something he was passionate about. He wanted to be surrounded by nature, to explore the trails with his dogs, to live in a place that felt like home.

So, he made the move to Kitimat, BC—a place where the mountains meet the ocean, where adventure is right outside the front door, and where he and his dogs could finally settle in.

Here, he found not only a home but a purpose. The need for quality dog care, dog walks, and dog boarding was clear, and Darcy knew he could fill that gap—not as a business move, but as a way to create something meaningful.

More Than Just a Service—A Way of Life

For Darcy, this isn’t just about offering dog care; it’s about building a life centered around the things he loves. It’s about being present, about giving back to a community that has welcomed him and his pack, and about helping others who, like him, just want the best for their dogs.

Every day now starts with fresh air and wagging tails. Whether it’s out on the trails with Luna and Milo or caring for another family’s pup, Darcy has finally found what he was searching for—a life that feels right.

And it all started with two dogs and a dream of something more.
