In Loving Memory of Mara❤️

Mara was the heartbeat of her home - a noble German Shepherd whose presence brought warmth, safety, and love to every moment. She grew up alongside her family, through all the firsts - first steps, first days of school, first adventures - always watching over with wise, loyal eyes.

She was more than a companion; she was a guardian of hearts. Through joy and through tears, she was always there - steady, gentle, and endlessly devoted. Her family’s bond with her ran deep, and her love will forever echo within the walls of their home and the hearts she helped shape.

Rest well, sweet Mara. You will always be remembered as the soul of your family - their protector, their comfort, their forever girl. 🐾🌈

In loving memory of Toby❤️

Toby was a bold spirit with a heart full of love. Fearless in his adventures yet gentle in his affections, he had an uncanny ability to offer comfort and warmth to anyone around him. His soft, snuggly side was the perfect balance to his brave and curious nature, making him a cherished member of his family from day one.
Rest peacefully sweet Toby ❤️
His devoted family shares these touching words in his memory:

“Toby came into this world the largest of his litter, he was bold and loving. He looked up to his brother Louis and was from day one, and became an integral part of our pack. He loved to sing the song of his people, spending time with his family and grew to appreciate his human sister and all the treats she would drop for him on the floor.
He had such a wonderful sense of adventure and was fearless. Always looking for someone to snuggle with, finding anyone who needed a little bit of extra love and providing them that sense of comfort. He will be truly missed and he is in our thoughts always. Thank you Toby for being part of our family, we were so lucky to have you and we will always love you. You can rest now with your brother Louis.”

In Loving Memory of Calvin❤️

Calvin was more than a dog - he was a steadfast companion, an adventurer, and the truest friend his dad could have ever hoped for.

Wherever life took them, Calvin was home.Through every move and milestone, he was by his dad’s side - proof that the bond between a man and his dog is one of life’s greatest gifts.

Rest peacefully sweet Calvin❤️
We were so honoured to care for you 🐾🌈❤️

In loving memory of Annie ❤️

For 13 years, Annie was a heartbeat beside her family, a gentle soul who carried joy in every wag of her tail and every soft nuzzle. She was more than a companion - she was a teacher of love, laughter, and the quiet beauty of simply being together. From sandy paws in the ocean to warm cuddles at the end of the day, her presence was a constant, radiant thread woven through the tapestry of her family’s lives. Annie’s spirit was a bright, shining presence that will be cherished forever.
Rest peacefully sweet girl 🐾🌈❤️
Her adoring family share these words from the heart in honour of their dearest Annie:

“There are no words that can express how much we miss our baby girl, Annie. She has been the centre of our universe for 13 years. At just 19 years old, my husband and I drove to Qualicum Beach and there she was, the most perfect, chunky little lab. She was meant for us since day one. Annie gave us countless smiles, laughs, kisses, cuddles and love. Her favourite things were to swim for sticks in the ocean, eat (of course she’s a lab), roll around in the grass, go to work with her Dad and greet people with the strongest tail wag and happiest face holding a toy or slipper. Annie was right by our side through school, building many houses, getting a baby brother dog Gus, and welcoming her human baby sister Scarlett last year. We are so lucky to have shared this time with Annie and we wish it could have lasted forever. We will continue to celebrate our sweet girl in every way we can and cherish every moment and memory she gave us. You will live in our hearts forever.

We love you Annie.”

In loving memory of Manny❤️
Manny was a light in a time of darkness, entering his family’s life when they needed him most. Manny lived a life surrounded by pure love and devotion, and in return, he gave boundless joy and unwavering companionship. On the day of his gentle crossing, his home was bursting at the seams with love - SO many devoted family members gathered to honor him, each heart touched by his presence. His life was a gift, and he was blessed to share it with those who cherished him completely.
Rest peacefully sweet boy ❤️
His deeply devoted family share these words in Manny’s memory:

“Dr. Vanessa, Ashley and the resting paws team exceeded our expectations and we are beyond happy about the care and support that we received from all of you. It was so heartwarming and genuine. Your care and concern speaks volumes of who you are and the people that represent your business.
Thank you for everything. It’s been a tough few days and only time will heal the pain of not having our sweet Manny around.
He was truly the best, in more ways than just a furry companion, he was a son and rock for my mom, during a time that she needed it most. He brought so much joy and life to everyone he met and never went without a day of truly living life to the fullest. He always ran like the wind and never was out of energy. He could run for miles and never stop. The outdoors was his happy place. He loved swimming at Shawnigan Lake, there were times we were worried he would never come in. He would swim in circles for so long, while having the biggest smile you could imagine. Manny will forever have a special place in all our hearts. He lived a cherished and loved life like no other. We love you sweet pal, forever and always with us xo”

In loving memory of Luna❤️

Luna was deeply loved, and it showed in every gentle glance and touch shared with her family. The bond between them was palpable - tender, joyful, and filled with quiet gratitude for a life so beautifully lived together. She delighted in her toys, determined to uncover every hidden squeaker, and brought laughter wherever she went.
Her family will forever remember the light she brought into their lives — her playfulness, her sensitivity, and her steadfast companionship through every season.
Rest peacefully sweet Luna❤️🐾🌈

The heartfelt words below were lovingly shared by Luna’s devoted family.

“We were all so very appreciative of the care you took with our Luna. While we will miss her terribly we are comforted in knowing her last days and moments were spent with her favourite people and in familiar places doing what she loved. Luna was completely at ease and we are grateful she was peaceful and free of pain.

We were able to get to beach with Luna and ensure our family had time to say our goodbyes.
Our funny girl never actually swam but waded.

Luna went everywhere with us and we will remember our many camping and road trips with her. She even got used to elevators and lounging at hotels.

Even though she was a west coast pup, she appreciated the winter warmth of Phoenix,AZ. So much so that we needed to call her into the shade.

When she was younger, she did not have an off switch when playing with her dog pals. She particularly loved frenchies.

Luna loved postal workers (well pretty much anyone who came to the door wearing a yellow vest) because she knew there might be a treat in the offing.

She had surgical precision with squeakers in toys and was able to remove them handily. She recently met her match with a larger yellow spiked ball.

Luna was sensitive to her human companions’ health and emotions and ensured they got out for their morning and afternoon walks.

We will remember her with love and gratitude for being our companion.”

In loving memory of Lucy ❤️
Lucy was a one-of-a-kind soul — bold, opinionated, endlessly funny, and full of heart. Her spirit was as free as the adventures she led, and her presence will forever be felt in every sunrise, every trail, and every sunbeam she used to claim as her own.
Rest in peace Lucy ❤️🐾🌈

“Lucy was sweet, sassy, and chatty — always herself, always making us laugh. she always had her own opinions about everything — and she made sure we knew it. Life with Lucy was never dull. She was eager to learn every trick except walking on a leash. All she really wanted was to be off-leash outside, lounging on the deck, living life on her own terms since day one. You had your dog door, your fenced backyard, and your beloved deck where you could bask in the sun, doing whatever you wanted, whenever you wanted. Lucy also enjoyed leading us on hikes, digging at the beach or curling up for bedtime at 9 o’clocksharp.
When we moved to B.C. hiking became our passion, being off leash in the mountain’s she discovered freedom in its purest form. From that point on, she became an adventure dog — fearless on the trails, always leading the way, and bringing us back to the car like it was her mission. She had a great sense of direction and knew her way home. She joined us on 15 flights, road trips across Canada, and even an all-inclusive trip to Mexico. She wasn’t thrilled about car rides (especially early mornings), but the moment we hit the trail, she was unstoppable.
Watching her get sick so fast was heartbreaking. After nine years of independence, she suddenly wanted to cuddle. We cherished these moments but deep down she was telling us goodbye. We had an incredibly peaceful last day together, and thanks to Resting Paws, she left us gently, at home, surrounded by love.
Thank you for being you Lucy. We loved your big personality and how you always shared your thoughts. You have always been unique, so loving and funny, and always in charge. We miss you deeply and hope you’re running free, being a pack leader, soaking up the sun, and reunited with Browning, doing things your way! We love you Lucy!”

In Loving Memory of Ellie ❤️

Some bonds are so deep that words simply fall short when the heart is soaked in grief. But, pictures of quiet, tender memories say everything words never could.
Ellie had a quiet way of filling her home with love through her presence and softness. Grief this profound is only possible because love ran so deep.
Ellie, your story lives on in every picture, every memory, and every heartbeat that misses you💔We were so honoured to meet you.
May you rest peacefully Ellie🐾🌈❤️

In loving memory of Sadie💖

Sadie was a gentle, sensitive soul whose presence brought calm, laughter, and unconditional love to all who knew her. Adventurous and affectionate, she filled every day with joy - whether greeting new friends on her walks, indulging her love of potatoes, or asking for one more cuddle. Though the house feels quieter without her, her joyful spirit and boundless love will forever fill their hearts.
Rest peacefully sweet Sadie 💖🐾🌈
Her family shares these heartfelt words in tribute to their beloved girl.

“We were so blessed that our sweet Sadie chose us to be her family. She was a sensitive soul who brought calm to everyone in her orbit. Always up for an adventure, she loved meeting new people on her walks and was happy to cuddle for as long as you needed. Smart and sassy, with an undeniable addiction to all things potato, she kept us laughing and loved harder than we could have imagined. She was our booping queen, never shy about asking for a good ear or butt scratch. Our hearts are broken, and the house feels so empty without her. Walking through the door will never be the same without her greeting us with her “baby” in her mouth. Your strands of love will always linger, and your absence will always be felt. We love you forever Sadie Bum.”

In loving memory of Henry❤️

From the moment Henry arrived as a tiny rescue puppy, he filled his family’s life with unwavering loyalty, joy, and adventure. For 11 beautiful years, he was their faithful hiking companion and their devoted guardian at home, keeping a watchful (and often vocal!) eye on everyone who passed by.
Henry’s final moments were peaceful - spent at home, in the place he loved most. He was a good boy to the very end.
Rest peacefully sweet Henry🐾🌈❤️
Henry’s loving family share these heartfelt words in his memory:

“Henry came to us as a tiny puppy from a rescue organization and, for 11 years, has been a totally loyal member of our family. He hiked every local trail with us and was always first to reach the top of the hill. As he aged he slowed down on his walks, but was equally happy snoozing and barking at anyone walking past the house - especially the many people who brought him treats.
We will miss him terribly, but take some comfort that Resting Paws made his last day as comfortable as possible and he died at home, in the place he loved.”❤️
