Dog Boarding in Norfolk County

“Our dog Blue had a great time! He came home happy, content and tired. Cynthia and David have a great property, perfect for our curious dog who loves to sniff! They seemed invested in making sure they got to know Blue and that he was comfortable. Also communicated well and sent updates during the stay which were so appreciated! Would definitely book again in the future :)”

“Josey was very professional, reliable, organized and listened well. Her clean home, fenced in large yard made us feel comfortable leaving our “Birdy” with her. Josey frequently sent daily photos of how Birdy’s day was going. Our pet was exercised daily and even got to meet some new house guests! Her very attentive service warranted a tip in recognition of her exceptional care provided.”

About: Over 30 years of dog ownership and care. I am a retired Pharmacy Technician so I have lots of experience with medications and administration. Large property for exercise. Indoor area for playtime. We’ll treat your furry friend like we do our own, showering them with love, cuddles, and treats while following your dog’s specific diet requirements. I’m a retired pharmacy technician, so I’m very familiar with medications and administration. My husband works nights, so there’s always someone here to have naps with. We have over 10 acres of land, including about 8 acres of bush with walking paths. There’s a fully fenced dog run attached to the house for bathroom breaks. We have a large room dedicated to indoor play and rest, and a large, cleared outdoor area for playing fetch and water activities when the weather is nice. There’s plenty of shade for relaxing on hot days. We’ve always dreamed of running a boarding kennel or daycare. As dog owners for over 30 years, we’ve mostly had more than one dog at a time. Years ago, we even had a litter of eight Labs! Currently, we have three dogs: Jenny, a retriever mix female we helped rehome when she was 10 months old; Oscar, our 8-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog; and Maverick, our 4-year-old Red Retriever. We also have our grand puppy, Cooper, a 4-year-old Basset Hound, who lives in an attached apartment with our son, daughter-in-law, and grandson. Cooper is with us when his parents work. All dogs are welcome on the furniture and beds. We’re non-smokers and have elderly parents, one in a wheelchair, living with us. We also have a new baby in an attached apartment.

“First visit for our 4 year old cavapoo who is very much a Velcro pup. Katie communicated during visit and sent pictures. Dolly ate which surprised me and appeared very content. Would recommend KATIE 100%.”

“Very communicative before and during the stay. My skittish dog who doesn't like anyone, especially men, warmed up to Manuel in record time. Very patient and gentle with the dogs.”

“Both my dogs were very happy. They were sad to leave Chetan. I can tell my dogs were very comfortable and had the best time! Going forward we will choose Chetan any time we need the boarding services!”

“Claudia was kind, very knowledgeable and has an ease with animals that creates a calm, safe environment! Her backyard is perfect for some time in the sun. Our boy was able to be introduced to several breeds big and small during his stay which is great for socializing him further! I cannot recommend Claudia (& her son) enough! Thank you for providing the best experience for Leroy Brown!!! 🥰”

“Krystle was able to help me out on short notice. My boys were well cared for and enjoyed their time with her for the week. I would highly recommend Krystle’s services and will use her again in the near future!”

“Happy to have Amy look after Dexter while we were away. She did an amazing job watching him and sent us many pictures and updates during the stay which was nice. Would highly recommend Amy to care for your pet 🐾”

“Catherine and Natz are wonderful dogsitters! Our wheaten terrier had such a great holiday with them. I knew when we first met at the Meet-and-Greet that they truly loved animals. Our dog, Bailey, went right up to them and made herself right at home. We left Bailey for 8 days and what a true gift they gave us by putting our minds at ease so that we could enjoy our time away worry-free. We received lots of fun updates and photos to show us how Bailey was doing. And, Bailey really made herself at home -- a true sign that she was comfortable and trusted her petsitters. We highly recommend Catherine and her husband. They have true hearts of gold and lots of knowledge about dogs and animals. Your dog will thank you. Jennifer”

About: I grew up on a farm with every kind of animal, which gave me a lifelong love and natural comfort around pets. From an early age, I learned the importance of daily care, routine, patience, and responsibility. I lead an active lifestyle and genuinely enjoy spending time outdoors, making me a great companion for dogs who enjoy walks, exercise, and playtime. As I work from home, I am also able to provide consistent companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day. Reliable, warm, and genuinely passionate about animals, I take pride in treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I am retired and have a flexible schedule. I genuinely love having animals around throughout the day. I truly enjoy the companionship, warmth, and joy that pets bring into a home, and I understand how important it is for them to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Having grown up around animals, caring for pets has always come naturally to me. From energetic dogs who love adventure and exercise to cats who prefer gentle companionship and quiet comfort, I take pride in creating a warm, loving environment where pets feel happy, settled, and truly at home. Because I am home throughout the day, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, affection, and supervision - whether that means walks, playtime, cuddle breaks, feeding routines, outdoor time, or simply having a calm and caring presence nearby. I am attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, ensuring they feel relaxed, secure, and cared for as if they were part of our own family.

“If I could give Mike more than 5 Stars I totally would! He looked after Zoe, my 1yo Golden Retriever for a week while I was in Florida for vacation. Every day, Mike would send me pictures and videos and to be perfectly honest I think she was a little sad to leave! I would recommend Mike to anyone and I will definitely be using his services again!”

“Sreeparvathi and Vysakh were truly exceptional caregivers for our Goldendoodle during our 10-day trip. From our initial meet-and-greet to the day we picked him up, they were warm, welcoming, and professional. Their genuine hospitality and dedication to our dog’s well being were evident from the start. They went above and beyond to ensure he felt comfortable and safe, providing consistent love, attention, and care. He was fed on schedule, enjoyed plenty of playtime and walks, and had a wonderful time exploring their spacious backyard. They kept him well groomed and tidy throughout his stay. We especially appreciated the daily updates, complete with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was happy and thriving under their care. We are deeply grateful for the kindness, reliability, and one-on-one attention Sreeparvathi and Vysakh provided. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a loving, trustworthy dog sitter and we will absolutely book with them again.”

About: Hi, my name is Daniela, and I’ve recently moved to Brantford. I grew up with both dogs and cats and have always had a deep love for animals. I regularly care for my mom’s sweet dog, Pippa, whenever she travels, and I’m also a proud cat mom to two cats. I truly enjoy walking dogs and spending time with furry friends, whether it’s out on a walk or socializing at the park. Caring for animals brings me so much joy, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am working from home and have a flexible schedule till the spring. Where work picks up and I’ll be more available in the afternoon and early morning. I treat every pet like family, offering love, attention, walks, playtime, and comfort. Their safety and happiness are my top priorities while you’re away, I make sure every moment is full of love, fun, and wagging tails!

“I was very pleased with the care Bill and Tracy provided for Brio. They kept me updated with photos and messages. Brio seemed happy and relaxed in their home. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them.”

About: With a background in litters, puppies, training, and boarding, you can relax knowing your furry friend is in the best of hands, and will come home tired and happy Full availability on weekends and evenings Please contact for through the week bookings as I do work, but am open to take in animals through that time. I have a large high fenced back yard with a walking trail directly behind my house. There is also a river down the road that dogs love to play in. I have 2 dogs that love playdates. Indoor cats and chickens in the yard that can be housed in their coop if your pet is not good with them.

“Ruby had an amazing stay. I was super nervous leaving her for 2 weeks but she had a great time. Courtney and her family were great hosts. We got lots of updates and our dog got lots of snuggles. I finally feel like we can travel again and leave our pup in great hands.”

About: Being a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of finding a dog sitter who genuinely cares and willing to give the attention your dog needs. I have a 4 yr old goldendoodle, Maui who would love some company 💕 he loves meeting new dogs and making friends. I am home throughout the week so rest assured, your dog will get all the attention and love they need and more ✨ There will be lots of play, walks and cuddles. 😌 Available for boarding, doggy day care, dog walks and drop-in visits. I am self employed and full time taking care of my dog so I am with my dog throughout the day. Your dog is no different to me 💕 when your dog is home, he/she will have a best friend (my dog) and me, who will take care of them and enjoy all the extra cuddles. I give food according to your schedule set, give 2 walks everyday and lots of play/activities/puzzles during the day. Rest assured, your dog will come back home tired after a long day of play 😌 I currently do not have a fenced yard but I’m always extremely careful and leash our dog for pee breaks/potty breaks when I take them to the yard. I have never had any incidents of dogs getting away because that’s how cautious I am. So safety is always my priority.

“Georgia just spent 2 nights with Britt and Steve, and I couldn’t recommend them enough. Britt was so great with putting me at ease as a first time Rover user. She sent me the cutest updates/photos/videos and I was never worried about Georgia’s wellbeing. Georgia came home so happy and tired from all of the fun and I can just tell she was so well loved and cared for while I was away. I will definitely re-book!!”
