Off-leash exploration in small, curated groups.
Book a Meet & GreetIn this industry, "small group" can mean 8–12 dogs per handler. Ours means 2–3. Your dog isn't a number in a pack — they're part of a carefully curated crew where I can focus on their individual needs, safety, and happiness. No chaotic pack dynamics — just a tight-knit group where every dog is known, not just managed.
Every dog is introduced one-on-one before joining a group — I take time to understand their personality before they meet their crew. Groups are then matched by temperament, energy, and play style. No random pairings — just dogs who genuinely enjoy each other's company.
We use only rewards-based methods — no force, fear, or intimidation. Every adventure is built on trust, treats, and genuine fun. Your dog learns through positive experiences, not corrections or punishment. This builds real confidence — and dogs who can't wait to hit the trail each week.
Individual crated transport — every dog travels in their own crate for a calm, stress-free ride. Every dog wears a GPS tracker, and every adventure includes bear bells, bear spray, a pet corrector, and a pet first aid certified hiker. Your dog's safety isn't an afterthought — it's built into every detail.
This level of care costs more. Here's why our clients think it's worth it.
Your dog gets a full hour on secluded forest trails alongside 1–2 compatible canine friends — running through ferns, splashing in creeks, and being unapologetically dog. Approximately 1.5–2 hours door-to-door. Minimum commitment of 1 weekly hike.
$60 + GST / hikeFor dogs 30+ lbs with reliable off-leash recall.
Your dog must have reliable recall or be actively working toward it.
For puppies aged 6-12 months whose owners are actively working on recall training, we offer our Puppy Bridge Program — 1-on-1 leashed hikes to build foundational off-leash skills before graduating to our off-leash Sniffaris.
Tailored for small dogs in an intimate, size-appropriate group. Scenic on-leash hikes with rich sensory experiences and plenty of time to sniff, socialize, and soak in the trail.
Paired only with other small and medium-sized dogs for appropriate pacing and play.
Book a meet-and-greet where we'll walk through your neighbourhood together, answer any questions you may have, and see if your dog is a good fit for our adventure hikes. There's no commitment — just a chance to meet face-to-face and make sure it feels right.
Once your dog is comfortable on the trail, they're introduced to a carefully matched crew of compatible friends. After every hike you'll receive a detailed post-adventure report — and week by week you'll watch their confidence, friendships, and love of the forest grow.
Katia has been incredible with our dog — he went from being uncomfortable leaving me to waiting at the window for her every week. She's thoughtfully matched him with walking buddies, and the transformation in his calm, confident behavior has been life-changing for our family.

Katia has been a game-changer for our high-energy pup Emmy. Her detailed adventure reports — complete with photos, hike stats, and updates on Emmy's friendships — are something we genuinely look forward to every evening. The level of care and communication is truly unmatched.

Lola is always excited to see Katia — their bond is genuine. Katia is incredibly reliable and consistently accommodating, even with last-minute schedule changes. If you're looking for a trustworthy, professional walker who truly cares, I can't recommend her enough.

After earning my Honours Bachelor of Commerce with a specialization in Accounting and Entrepreneurship, I chose a different path — one built around animals and nature. I moved from Ottawa to Port Moody with the intention of doing work that actually mattered to me, and PoMo Pup Adventures grew from that. Before founding it, I spent a year as a primary caregiver at Penny Lane Farm Sanctuary in Ottawa, caring for over 150 rescued animals. That work shaped everything about how I approach animal care: patience, presence, and real attentiveness to every individual animal.
I live in Port Moody with my partner and our three cats, and the rainforest is my second home. I use only rewards-based methods, never take more than 2-3 dogs at a time, and I serve on Penny Lane's Board of Directors. This isn't a business and life I fell into — it's one I built on purpose.
