RESERVATIONS & BOOKING
For general inquiries, or updates on your dog(s), please email swineyc@xplornet.ca
To enquire about availability for your dog(s) vacation, please fill out our reservation form.
We will reply by email to confirm the dates & room on the MuttBus' regularly scheduled travel days*.
NOTE: Your reservation information will be shared with the daycare so they know to expect you.
If this is your dog's first visit, please fill out our Dog Profile & Kennel Waiver & send to the email above (or print off & send out a hard copy with your dog).
*The MuttBus does NOT travel on Tuesdays or Thursdays (unless they precede or follow a stat holiday), so we can spend more time with the dogs.
If you want to drop off or pick up your dog at the Retreat, you can schedule a time between 1:00 & 4:00 pm on Tuesdays/Thursdays/weekends/holidays (except Christmas day).
Regretfully, since Covid and the crisis that rescues are currenty in (over full & under staffed), we are unable to give tours of the facilities in order to give the kennel clients & rescue dogs additional outside play time.
If you would like your dog(s) to have a bath on their return to Calgary, please contact Launder-a-Pet directly, as their grooming schedule is booked weeks in advance. This is a separate service, provided by Launder-a-Pet.
Extreme or Dangerous Driving Conditions
If the weather is extreme- such as blizzards/white outs/icy roads, monsoon rains or tornado winds, for example - on our normal travel days, we will postpone the drive until the next day if at all possible. We are, after all, carrying precious cargo (your dog) and we do not want to take chances if we can avoid it. There will be no extra charge to you if we change the driving schedule due to weather or conditions we cannot prevent.
2025 HOLIDAY SCHEDULE
Please check back here for our updated holiday MuttBus driving schedule.
Our driving schedule aligns with stat holidays & Launder-a-Pet holidays (when they are closed). If Cindy gets a chance to judge agility trials (or maybe even compete) - what she calls mini vacations - she normally has to travel on a MuttBus driving day. In these cases, the MuttBus will travel on the Tuesday or Thursday instead.
2025 - None to show
There will be no extra charge for the extra nights, if your dog has to come out early or stay a little later, in order to accommodate her holiday schedule
THANK YOU!
