Cozy Overnight Boarding Stays

Dog Boarding in Kitchener

Overnight boarding in the city rather than a drive out of it. Every boarding guest gets a full day of daycare, a cozy rest space in the same room they played in, and staff on site around the clock. No kennel run, no concrete, no long trip to the country.

What you get

Daycare Play Included

Every overnight guest gets standard full-day open play in our daycare playrooms. They play all day, so they sleep deeply all night.

Raised Cozy Beds

Standard suites come with professional raised orthopedic cots and plush fleece bedding. Fresh water is refilled continuously through the day.

Same Room Overnight

Your dog sleeps in a cozy, home-style crate in the same room they played in during the day. The same sights, sounds and smells help them settle far better than being moved somewhere unfamiliar for the night.

Medical Care Included

Health check logs are updated twice a day, and certified staff administer medications, vitamins or special diets exactly as prescribed, at no extra cost.

How a boarding stay works

  1. 1

    Meet & greet, then three daycare days

    A $39 meet & greet plus three additional daycare days come before a first boarding stay. It lets your pup learn the routine, and learn that you always come back.

  2. 2

    Check in

    Before 3:00 PM Monday to Friday, or before 11:00 AM on Saturday. Bring their usual food, any medication, and bedding that smells like home.

  3. 3

    A normal day, then a quiet night

    Full day of open play, evening wind-down, and lights out in the room they already know. Add a bedtime story, a stuffed Kong or a gourmet cookie if you want to spoil them.

  4. 4

    Check out

    Before 11:00 AM Monday to Saturday, or between 8:00 and 10:00 AM on Sunday. Pickup after 11:00 AM is charged as a full day of daycare.
