What we can do for you.

Register today.

We require everyone to complete an online registration form and set up a consultation prior to their dog attending Doggieland for daycare or boarding. This will provide you with the chance to see our facilities and meet our staff. Please note that Doggieland reserves the right to refuse any dog if the dog’s behaviour jeopardizes the safety of the other dogs and/or the safety of our staff.

Our boarding facility is located in Vaughan and comes equipped with large, clean, bright comfortable rooms suitable for any sized dog or breed. When not resting or eating, dogs socialize happily inside and outside in our spacious daycare areas. Contact your local Doggieland location for boarding rates and options.

To ensure an enjoyable overnight experience we provide:
• Supervision by well-trained and caring staff
• Refrigeration for all food and medication
• Clean water and food bowls
• Laundry for your dog’s beds and/or linens
• Plenty of socialization and playtime at no extra cost
• On site full supervision 24 hours a day, every day of
the year

You are asked to also pack and send along:
• A bed and/or blanket for a cozy night stay
• Your dog’s dry food in separate sealed baggies per meal
• Any medication with clear instructions
• Any treats or non-squeaking toy

Companion Boarding

While most dogs are comfortable spending the night in our spacious kennels, there are some dogs who are too anxious or stressed to stay in a confined space, especially without direct human accompaniment. To ensure that dogs like this have a safe and comfortable stay, we have introduced Companion Boarding.

Dogs staying in Companion Boarding will spend the night in our staff bedroom with our overnight attendant, instead of in a kennel. Companion Boarding dogs will have the option to sleep in the bed with our attendant, or to sleep on one of the many comfy dog beds we provide in that room.

Spaces for Companion Boarding are limited and will be booked on a “first come, first served” basis. It is an additional $15 per night, in addition to our regular boarding rates.

Doggieland will be happy to safely provide return transportation for your dog from either the North Toronto or Bloor West locations.

A positive, fully supervised place for your dog to socialize, make new friends and play!

Our Vaughan facility located on 3.5 acres offers a large indoor play area and a 5,000 sq.ft. fully fenced outdoor play area.

Doggieland North Toronto has over 2,000 sq.ft. indoor play area, a lower quiet lounge room and a fenced in outdoor area.

The Bloor West location offers over 2000 sq.ft. play area for dogs and a special play area for smaller or older dogs. A parkette is located just behind the facility for daily outings on leash.

We suggest discussing your goals and objectives with our trainer prior to scheduling a Board & Train for your dog.

Doggieland is happy to announce that we will begin working with Dr. Elana Silverman to provide Dog Chiropractic and Massage Services at our facilities. Dr. Silverman graduated from Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in 2004. Since then she has dedicated her practice to the rehabilitation of injuries and wellness. She is a certified animal chiropractor and massage therapist able to work on horses, dogs, cows, goats, cats and others. She also practices Kineso-taping for animals. She teaches both canine and equine massage therapy in various locations across Ontario.

Doggieland is thrilled to be able to make Dr. Silverman’s services available to our customers, whether it be for therapeutic purposes, general maintenance or relaxation and enjoyment. These services can be of particular benefit for senior dogs or really active dogs – but any dog will appreciate the relaxing benefits of massage.

Chiropractic and massage therapy are natural, safe, hands-on approaches to health care, not just for humans but for animals too. Doctors of Chiropractic (DC’s) work together with Doctors of Veterinary Medicine (DVM’s) for the combined benefit of achieving optimal health for both small and large animals.

Chiropractor’s are largely concerned with the spine and related joints and their relationship to the nervous system, while massage addresses muscular tension and restrictions also influencing the nervous system. The nervous system controls and coordinates all body functions including organ, tissue, and muscle function. It is the foundation for a strong and balanced individual and animal. Therefore, by addressing dysfunction (subluxations) in the spine and related joints, the chiropractor is able to influence how our organs, tissues, joints and muscles function, and thus our overall health.

From a wellness perspective, proper joint motion, nerve and muscle function is of utmost importance. Optimal function of our joints, nerves, and muscles translates into greater performance, fewer injuries, and enhanced recovery time, and overall greater quality of life both for humans and animals.

Massage Therapy Info

Massage therapy not only feels great but it is a vital therapy for the canine partner. It addresses muscular imbalances and spasms that can hinder every day life and performance. It is important to treat the soft tissues in order to maintain proper function, prevent injuries and relieve pain. A session can last anywhere from 20-40 minutes, depending on the dog’s tolerance and can often include different techniques including stretching. Massage is a great tool not only in conjunction with an adjustment, but for senior dogs that might not be a good candidate for chiropractic treatment.

How many treatments will be required?

Chiropractic adjustments and massage treatments are usually required more frequently when starting, as there are more “issues” to be addressed. Adjustments and massages are also more frequent during racing and competition seasons to maintain an optimal level of performance and prevent injuries. Depending on how quickly the animal responds, the therapist will decide when to decrease or increase the number of treatments. Most owners see a difference within 1-3 treatments.

Our Home Visits option is targeted at puppies and senior dogs, and can include a short walk, feedings, limited medication administering, playing, and general cuddling (please inquire).

One of our trained walkers will travel to your home and take your dog for a walk. There are two options available – a 30 minute walk and a 45 minute walk.
