T4P HISTORY
Treks 4 Pets was founded by husband and wife team Andrew and
Chantelle Dawson. After five years of growing Treks 4 Pets, and with
a second baby on the way, Chantelle and Andy made the big decision
to move to England. Therefore, at the beginning of 2017, Danielle O'Neill
purchased Treks 4 Pets Inc.
Danielle grew up on a farm 25 minutes out of Smithers, B.C. The farm life
meant animals surrounded her from a young age; from family cats and
dogs, to showing her horse Bentley at local and provincial shows, to raising cows and chickens, Danielle has experience with it all. Needless to say, animals have always been a big part of her life!
​
After graduation, Danielle moved to North Vancouver to play basketball and study Human Kinetics at Capilano University. From there, she fell in love with the beautiful North Vancouver mountains and decided to make North Vancouver her home. Having always thought she would follow in her mother's footsteps of becoming a riding instructor and horse trainer, Danielle now had to find a new career option within her new community.

At this point, she stumbled upon dog walking and instantly found her new passion. Two years after working as a full-time dog walker, Danielle met Chantelle and became the proud new owner of Treks 4 Pets dog walking. From then on, she has been working hard to create a higher quality dog walking service for North Vancouver and West Vancouver!
