Dog Daycare in Cole Harbour

“Our energetic pup had her first daycare stay with Zenobia today. She was extremely well cared for and was tired and happy when we picked her up! I received lots of updates and photos throughout the day, I highly recommend Zenobia!”

“Ben was fantastic! Sent lots of photos and updates and Layla got along great with his dogs. He went above and beyond by taking her for a big walk. I would definitely use Ben again. You can clearly tell he has a passion for animals.”

“Victoria was great with my dog Izzy! I contacted her last minute and she was super responsive and accommodating. Izzy just had surgery so she needed some special attention and was very well taken care of while I was at work. Highly recommend :)”

“We were just in the HRM for a softball tournament and found Spencer on Rover. We couldn't of asked for a better person. Lexie had a great time with his family and the other dogs and told me the next time we were in Halifax, she wants to stay with them.🐶❤️”

“Carolina is an amazing dog sitter. Being with Carolina and Arthur has been so good for my pup! I’m just so impressed with the level of care Carolina shows and she is so professional and easy going. The updates throughout my workday put me so at ease. I leave Mira there and know she will have a great day :) I absolutely recommend her service!”

Arianna L.

“Amazing, and great working with a nervous pup. Their dog is also patient and sweet. Plan to book them often!”

“Audrey was very kind and caring with our Husky, Estelle. We were visiting our family in Dartmouth and we could not bring Estelle on some of our day trips. Audrey was very considerate, taking good care of Estelle and even bringing her to the lake to cool off when it was too hot. We would definitely book again with Audrey!”

Odette B.

“Rebecca was fantastic with my sometimes shy and skittish doggo Betty. Her home and yard are ideal to host pups. Communication was fab leading up to the booking and during my dog's stay. Lots of photo updates as well. I could tell B was comfortable and relaxed during her daycare. I hope Rebecca is available again for my next Rover booking!”

About: We are dog people! IYKYK right? We've had dogs for a long time, from childhood besties to adult faithful companions. We raised a beagle from 12 weeks to 12 years old. We've adopted dogs midlife and have cared for multiple senior dogs. We've run the gamut of situations and are well equipped to make your dogs feel at home. Every dog we've had has been a big part of our family. Our hearts are open. In the Spring of 2025 we had to say goodbye to our beloved chocolate lab, Sandy. Now our pet free home is open to care for your dogs. Amy works from home full time (Dave is home 2 days/week) so we have lots of flexibility to dote on your dog. We love taking neighborhood walks in the mornings/evenings. We have a lovely fenced in backyard with lots of room for your dog to roam freely and your dog will love the trails that run near our house for walks.

“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Chica. Gail was very responsible and caring, providing us with details throughout the day and sending us amazing photos of her. Highly recommended!”

“Fantastic first experience having Chris look after my Bentley! They hit it off right away and it was apparent to me, how caring Chris is with animals!”

Wendy S.

“Justin checked in with me multiple times throughout the day, sending a few photos and provided updates on my dog Luna. Luna definitely was well taken care of and is happily snoozing by my feet after a great day out (bonus fetch!). Will be booking with Justin for a 4 night boarding stay for Luna in the future and I am extremely confident that she will be well cared for and provided lots of attention. Thanks so much!!”

“Sammy had a fun day at Carissa’s with her 2 doggies. She has a nice big fenced back yard with plenty of room to run and play. It felt great to leave him for the day and not worry about him, and he came home and was tired.”

Steve W.

“Jessica was great with Roxie. She got exercise and I felt comfortable leaving her there due to Jessica’s knowledge of dog behaviour. We will definitely use her again.”

About: I've owned and cared for dogs throughout my life, and am currently the proud owner of a 5-yo Beagle, Stella. She's very friendly with lots of friends and playmates, so our home is well adapted to four-legged visitors and guests :) I'm a freelance translator who works from home, with a flexible schedule and generally light workload, leaving me plenty of time to look after other dogs besides my own, including long walks and fun outings to the park. I have a great set-up to board dogs in my home: I live with my dog (5yo) and cat (8yo) in a bright, clean suite with a nice balcony in a very pet-friendly apartment complex in the North End of Halifax. There's a fenced-in dog run in the back and a semi-private courtyard out front where dogs like to congregate and socialize, I'm in a very walkable neighborhood close to downtown, the Commons and the waterfront, and I have a safe, reliable car that I use to take my dog and others on fun outings to the park (Point Pleasant Park is a favorite destination). In addition, I was recently certified in Pet First Aid by St. John Ambulance (Oct. 29, 2023 - certificate available for viewing in photos).

“Miriam is an excellent caretaker of my bog dog, Trigger. Triggs has anxiety and can't really be left alone, he was content and happy to spend the afternoon with Miriam while we had an opportunity to visit Halifax and take in some of the sights. Definitely looking forward to having Miriam watch Trigger agin in the future!”

“Peter was wonderful with Ella! It was my first time leaving her with someone she wasn’t familiar with but she took a liking to him very fast and felt comfortable with him! I felt comfortable leaving her with him, he gave me updates throughout the day and was overall a very pleasant experience. I highly recommend him to any pup parent! :)”

Robyn S.

“James is amazing for providing updates and making full use of the Rover app while utilizing all of it’s features like the Rover card for example. My dog Snoop really enjoyed his time with James and Juna! He offers group pack walks which is very appealing. Overall a great experience, I highly recommend his services and we will definitely be back! :)”

“Brooklyn and Gary took excellent care of my little buddy! Maverick is a big personality and has separation anxiety (I think I might too!) and this was his first time being cared for by someone other than myself or my husband. Brooklyn and Gary made it easy for me. They were very welcoming and they made it stress free to leave Maverick! They sent updates, including pictures and videos, throughout the day. I couldn’t ask for better care!! Will definitely be a repeat client.”

About: I recently had to say good-bye to my 16.5 yo soulmate Jagger. Jagger had many health issues from his puppy years to his senior years which I financed (with ZERO hesitation 🥰) & managed daily. I feel that I learned so much from his various healthcare issues that can carry over into caring for your loving soulmate. I am experienced in anything from eye/eardrops, administering oral medications, and even insulin injections. I also successfully crate trained Jagger as a puppy and feel that this kept him to be a calm, independent, and happy dog well into his senior years. I have no children so I have lots of time and space to devote to your beloved pets. I am looking forward to opening my home to them and sharing my love with your dogs (or cats) who may be in need of a safe space while you are away. There are also many lovely parks, beaches, lakes and trail adventures for your dog to experience in my neighborhood and I look forward to sharing all of them with your pets! I work from home so have the freedom to have playtime , walks, and potty breaks many times throughout the day and night with absolute patience and love I am able to accommodate any size dog or cat Inside my home. With lots of large windows for them to look outside and watch the world go by. I also have lots of beds, treats and toys on hand to help make your pet’s stay comfortable!
