The Hoo-Mans



MPPR owners James and Diana have a combined more than 30 years experience in the dog care industry. They spent 8 years in Chilliwack as owner/operators of Small Frys Doggy Daycare, purchasing the Playpen Cranbrook in 2018. The business was incorporated in 2025, and rebranded to Mountain Paws Pet Resort, so they could put their own unique vision into action.
James & Diana are dog lovers, especially Dachshunds, which they have 2 of! You will see little sisters Lily & Lilac in many pictures and as regular Littles daycare participants!

You will also regularly see their amazing manager Erika! Erika has been a cherished staff member for many years, starting her career with MPPR as a Littles caregiver, then supervisor and now Front Desk Manager. She is the mastermind behind all of the creative, unique ideas that distinguish MPPR's customer service, including picture magnets, custom buttons, and pictures/videos of your pet's stay with us!


Our Happy Customers
Fantastic service!! I can't thank them enough. We had a family emergency and staff took our dog in on 1 hours notice! They booked an open ended stay and gave us updates! It was one less thing to worry about during a stressful time. 100% will use them again and highly recommend checking them out!
