Contact: Sam Zambon Company: Indiana Bones Dog Adventures Corp. Web Address: https://indianabones.ca/ Located in Vancouver, Indiana Bones was born from Sam Zambon’s unfaltering passion for pooches and hiking trails. Seeking a change from the monotony of his career as a Mechanical Engineer, Sam decided to follow his dreams and combine his true loves to create Indiana Bones, Canada’s leading canine company that addresses a gap in the market for specialist services that go far beyond the capabilities of standardised pet care. Indiana Bones serves an array of clientele, all with one quality in common: each client of the company seeks a safe and fulfilling outdoor experience for their pets that connects them through exercise, socialisation, and exploration. Ultimately, the company aims to enrich the lives of dogs and their owners by offering them off-leash adventure hikes and socialisation opportunities set against the scenic backdrop of Vancouver’s hiking trails. Since being established in 2021, Indiana Bones has been steered with the core values of innovation, safety, community engagement, and personalised care. Over time, the company’s values have evolved to align with the changing world, incorporating advanced technology and community initiatives that reflect its sustained growth and commitment to excellence. By allowing these forward-looking values to guide its operations, Indiana Bones ensures that each dog entering its care enjoys enriching experiences, whilst owners feel secure and satisfied in its services. “In the pet service industry, both in Canada and worldwide, emerging trends are emphasising an increased use of technology for pet safety and convenience,” Sam explains. “Our extensive use of technology, such as live ETA-sharing, AI-powered chatbots, and search and rescue-drones, sets us apart as leaders in this evolving market by ensuring optimal safety and enhancing the overall experience.” The high calibre of Indiana Bones’s services is facilitated by its passionate employees, who work to foster a collaborative and open culture across the company. When hiring new talent, Indiana Bones carefully chooses individuals reflecting its principles and operational goals to ensure that every new member added is adding to a team steered by integrity, transparency, and continuous improvement.

The company understands that life can be unpredictable, especially when finances are concerned, and is committed to ensuring inclusivity across its Best Dog Care Company 2025 Off-leash dog hikes promise much more than adventure; they offer numerous benefits that enhance the happiness and health of your dog. Whilst exploring the great outdoors, off-leash hiking allows dogs to engage in natural behaviours, reduces anxiety, facilitates successful training, and provides unparalleled mental stimulation. Despite this, many owners can still be understandably hesitant about taking the leap and unleashing their dog whilst on the move. Enter Indiana Bones – a leading dog care company envisioning a future where every dog can embrace the energising and joyful experience of off-leash hiking.
