Booking
What sort of dogs will Daisy be hanging out with at doggy daycare?
Your dog will be placed with a balanced group of dogs. While we don’t necessarily put all the labs together and all the spaniels together, we ensure that the mix is right in terms of personality and energy level. Just as we arrange dogs for boarding or group walks, we are careful that there is a considered balance in the daycare groups for maximum comfort and enjoyment.
How do you book?
Before we accept any bookings, we will hold a free pet consultation. This gives you an opportunity to meet us and us to meet you as well as to answer any questions you may have.
We’ll go through details such as normal daily exercise, feeding requirements, health, contacts, phobias, personality and your special requests. This is the first key to us to providing the highest level of care.

A LEg Up Dog Day Care
There are days when you just know you can’t give your dog the attention he (or she) deserves, even before you leave for work. For those days – or weeks – there’s this. The place (now places) clients have called the greatest Toronto doggy daycare. Drop off your dog in the morning and pick him up in the afternoon or early evening.
If you prefer, we can even pick your dog up from home and bring him or her to whichever A Leg Up doggie daycare is closest to you. When the day is over, we'll return your pup back home.
She’ll have had fun, playing, chilling and socializing in 1 of 4 spaces within our 4,000 square foot Annex facility - or in 1 of our 3 Canadiana-themed doggy daycare spaces (the "Rink", the "Cottage", the "Lake" - compete with pool) in our 3,000 square foot Leslieville space.
Our Way
Because we like to do things our own way, our Toronto dog daycare has a splash of educational element to it. Designed by our Animal Behavioural College accredited trainer, the dogs are run through various routines and games
at various points through the day. The result – dogs who behave better while they’re with us and a dog who is that much more responsive when he comes home to you.
Some would say it’s a bit like sending your favourite canine to school. That makes us wrinkle our noses a touch. We prefer to think it’s more like dog day camp - in Toronto.

Getting Out
Dogs have needs. Bathroom needs. We won’t get into them here – we’re pretty sure you’re quite familiar. But in observation of this inescapable fact, we take the dogs out for bathroom breaks during the day. That way they get some outdoor time, and it ensures that they don’t learn that going inside is a good routine – with us or at home.
Snack n' Sleep
If your dog needs a snooze during the day, we’ll be sure she gets the time and space. And if there’s a hankering for a midday snack, that’s great too. She can chomp or chew on one you’ve provided or a special treat we serve up ourselves.
