Andrea Nadon
“At 19yrs of age I quit 3 jobs, sold my brand new car, and moved to Mexico where I officially began my Travel & Tourism career as a Destination Rep for Canadian Tour Operators. With more than 30yrs in the industry both living abroad and on cruise ships, Travel was and remains my greatest teacher on life, love, our planet, fellow Earthlings, and – most importantly – our impact on a very fragile environment. Follow our TravelPros – together, we’re going places!”
Tina Hinds
“After 13yrs of retail mgmt, I was ready to do something very different! When I learned of dog-walking as a business, I jumped right in, and fell in love with every one of my pup clients. I love going to work every day and – today – ‘manage’ a pack of Happy Hounds! When I met Andrea who introduced me to the world of travel and being a TravelPro, ‘Book & Board’ was born!”

Tina has been walking my dogs for over 6 years now, and they're always so excited to go on their puppy adventure with her. She's super knowledgeable and is always learning new things, which she is happy to share with you to make your dog's life better. I highly recommend them and am a very happy client .

Tilly
In December 2019 my husband was diagnosed with cancer and needed surgery. Tilly was a 2 year old beautiful German Shepherd rescue. She is beautiful, but it takes Tilly a long time to trust others. I knew I needed to hire a dog walker while I looked after my husband in the hospital. I shared my need on the Peel Village website and someone quickly told me about Andrea. Andrea Nadon came to visit Tilly and it was love at first sight.
Years later we still rely on Andrea. Tilly loves her and we trust Andrea with our Tilly. There have been times when a few hours at the hospital turned into full days. Thank goodness for Andrea. She dropped everything to take my Tilly for a walk and give her love. We highly recommend Andrea. Thanks Andrea for giving Tilly unconditional love.

Hunter
Absolutely recommend!!!!! I've had the pleasure to know Tina for several years and couldn’t think of a better person with the best personality to walk Penny & Leonard! Knowledgeable and informative with the ambition to go above and beyond to find out all necessary and correct information to inform their clients!!!

Pepper & Pascal
I was first introduced to Tina in 2019 when I had mentioned to a neighbour that we were planning a family vacation and needed to find a reputable boarder for our two dogs. Without even blinking, my neighbour mentioned Tina and her incredible dedication to her pack. I called Tina that day and we did a meet ‘n greet in our home soon after; she even brought Hunter as he might be the unofficial Chairdog of Pets & Travel Pros and thoroughly screens newcomers with a proper sniff
I immediately saw Tina's bubbly personality and her wonderful rapport with our dogs (two very different personalities) and we chatted for an hour about her positive reinforcement style of training and all the other who/what/where's of boarding and her pack walks. I knew right away that Tina was the perfect person to keep our dogs happy, safe, and well-exercised while we were away. Since that experience, I have often messaged Tina for advice on everything from natural dog health to training tips. She always replies very quickly and goes above and beyond to get me answers to any questions about our dogs. Tina always has a smile on her face ~ and her positivity shines every day. I would recommend Tina to be your dog’s new best friend.

Zoey
I have known Andrea for many years. She has raised my two rescues from Korea for over 4 years now. I cannot even mention her name without my pups jumping for joy to see her. Maya and Ace are like her children. She loves them and respects them and guided them to be beautiful pups. I actually have Andrea as my dog walker when at work. I have the most trust in her to treat my dogs as if they were her own. We call Andrea the ‘Dog Whisperer’. All animals from tiny to big love her. Nature and animals … it’s her calling for sure. Our little Zoey had grown old and needed company and extra care. Andrea went out of her way for Zoey and we will forever be thankful for her love.
The care and love for your animals will always be like family to Andrea.

Ms Andrea … my babies (Zara & Kahli) have been pretty chill all evening - totally wiped little divas! Thank you so much again for taking such amazing care of them for the weekend!

Tobi
Thanks Andrea for boarding Tobi over the weekend and providing your usual great service. We knew Toby would be in great hands and great company. It was also such a treat for Tobi to have a weekend rest between his incoming flight from Cayman and then onward journey to Saskatoon.
