Dog Daycare in Shelburne

“Every single interaction with Warren and Angelika is amazing. My puppy gets excited when we’re going down there, and is practically leaping out of my arms at the door. She comes home happy and tired. I’m pretty sure the days she doesn’t go, she’s judging me for not being as fun at Warren’s. :) I feel genuinely blessed to have found Warren. I feel totally sure that she’s being treated well, and have no anxiety at all. That’s worth more than gold!”

“Fabulous experience! Santanna is absolutely wonderful and so welcoming. This was our 5 month old puppies first experience and she fit right in with the other dogs and animals. It is like a holiday camp for her. She came home very happy and exhausted. Slept so well ☺️ Highly recommend- we are so glad we found Santanna and Dan!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine commitment to providing a loving and secure environment for pets. With a full-time parent at home and young kids eager to play and care for animals, I offer a unique level of attention and companionship. Additionally, my emphasis on trust, security, and small-town values ensures pet owners can leave their beloved companions with me with complete peace of mind. My large property and access to country air provide ample space for pets to roam and explore, further enhancing their experience under my care. I’m currently at home every day and have plenty of time to take care of extra pets in addition to our 2 year old Bernedoodle, Monte. We have a large fenced yard to ensure all pets are safe with ample room for play, running and fun. Inside our home, we have a clean, calm, and relaxing environment for humans and pets alike.

About: I retired in 2020 and returned to college to receive my Registered Veterinary Technician diploma in 2023. I have been a foster parent to hundreds of animals over my lifetime, specializing in animals who require medication and specialized medical care. I am retired and available to watch your pet at any time. Last minute and longer term care remains an option. I do travel on occasion but this would be communicated with plenty of notice. I have just moved to the Fergus area and reside in a park-setting which has a fenced leash free area on site. There is a lake should your pup like the water! I can accommodate crate trained animals however my general thinking is that your pet would be like my own were, snuggling on the bed or couch. I realize how important consistency and routine is to your pets wellbeing and would ensure that your routines are followed should I be staying at your home.

About: Lifelong Animal Lover With 10+ Years Vet Experience 🐾 Hi! I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Bailey, and I offer in-home pet boarding, daycare, and care for small to medium dogs, cats, and small animals. My pricing is set at what I believe is a fair reflection of my experience in the veterinary industry, the quality of care I provide, and the time dedicated to your pet. At the same time, I work hard to keep my services affordable because I understand firsthand how expensive being a pet parent can be. My goal is to provide trusted, professional care without adding financial stress. I’ve worked in the veterinary field for over 10 years, and I now work from home for a pet microchip company—meaning I’m available, attentive, and trained to notice even the smallest changes in your pet’s behavior or health. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I share my home with two friendly chihuahuas, two bunnies, and 3 pet rats, all of whom are used to meeting new animals and do great with visitors. I also have a gentle, animal-loving 7-year-old who has grown up around pets and understands how to treat them with care and respect. Animals have been my passion since childhood, and I love creating a calm, fun, and secure environment where your pet can feel like part of the family. Whether your pet needs cuddles, playtime, supervision, or just a quiet place to relax, I’m here to make their stay safe and enjoyable. If you have any questions or special requests, feel free to reach out—I’d love to meet you and your furry (or fluffy!) family member! I currently work from home for a pet microchip company—so I’m home and available all day. Since the company is very pet-friendly, they’re incredibly accommodating when it comes to things like background noise, potty breaks, or anything else your pet may need. Plus, my own 2 dogs are home with me all day and would love to play with your pet! When your pet is in my home, they’ll be treated just like my own! They have full access to the couch and all areas of my pet-friendly two-bedroom apartment. You’re welcome to bring any personal items—beds, blankets, toys, or anything that helps your pet feel more at home—but we also have plenty of toys and treats here for them to enjoy. My two dogs use pee pads during the winter months, but I’m absolutely able to take your dog out for walks if that’s part of their routine. If your pet is also pee-pad trained, that works perfectly for us.

“Beautiful place for Tilly to spend the day. Scott was friendly, professional and flexible with our changing schedule. We are grateful to have found this gem!”

I am there at home except for a few hours during the day ..my wife helps me take care of the pets during those times of absence My home has a fenced back yard.Inside the house, I have installed pet gates to keep my pets and other pets apart in case they don't get along well.Safety of each pet is paramount to me

About: I love dogs and will take care of yours like my own: extra snuggles when they miss you. I have owned and trained three dogs and treats are the best tools to keep the experience positive for all. Our dog Winter loves all friendly dogs and would always welcome a playmate. She is used to having and sharing our home with other dogs. Walking a pet at the end of a work day is wonderful way to know the day is over. Dogs always bring a smile to my face and the stress is gone! I will be happy to share photos of your fur baby when you are away: make you feel not as far away from them. We know you miss them. Lol I am currently at home so lots of time with your dog and lots of playing and walking outside will be provided. Your pet will come back home tired! We have a large yard on a quiet country road. Your dog will spend lots of time outside getting exercice and socialization with our dog Winter.

“Michelle was absolutely amazing! We booked our pup, Sobey, in for a full day of daycare and she absolutely loved it! From play time with Molly, to a duo walk, to snuggles inside, Sobey was extremely well taken care of and had the best day! Michelle was quick to respond to messages, extremely accommodating and sent us videos and pictures throughout the day of Sobey and Molly’s adventures! Michelle truly cares about what she does and made Sobey feel at home right away. I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you Michelle and Molly 🥰”

About: My husband and I own a beautiful 100-acre farm in Grey Highlands, 40-minutes from Arthur, and about a 60-minute commute from the GTA. Both of us are avid animal lovers, who are 'addicted' to rescuing. We are a foster family for Sato Saved Dog Rescue out of Brantford, ON and occasionally have foster dogs in our care. Dog-Sitting History... - Worked at Countryside Boarding & Grooming for three years - I have been dogsitting family and friend's dogs since 2013 - Both of us have a combined 16-years experience with dogs A Little About Us... - My husband is a Heavy-Equipment Mechanic out of the GTA - I am a Graphic Designer who works from home full-time - We have a pack of seven rescue dogs - We have six dog-savvy indoor/outdoor cats - Our property is partially fenced (not ideal for flight risk dogs) - We have two large ponds on the property - Lots of space for dogs to run around and play Routine... - First potty time is 4:00 am when my husband leaves for work (this is optional) - Second potty time is between 7:30 am and 8:00 am, and they are let out for an hour - Lunchtime potty is around 12:00 pm, and they are let out for an hour - Dinner time is between 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm - Bedtime potty is between 11:00 pm - 12:00 am *Throughout the day, the dogs are let out as they want, with many short breaks throughout the day. Outside duration is also determined by weather, if it's really gross out - the time will be shortened. *Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate any un-fixed dogs (male & female) over the age of 6-months - No Acceptions* Meet-and-Greets... Before a new dog comes into our care, we request that we do one to two meet-and-greets. This gives us the chance to meet you and your dog and see the chemistry / energy with our pack. This also gives you a chance to see our home, property, and meet our dogs. Incidents & Accidents... We believe in 100% transparency when we have dogs in our care. We never want anything to happen when your dog(s) are in our care, but, we always say they are children with teeth. Disagreements can happen, but we do our best to avoid any of that behaviour. When your dog(s) are here, we will give you day-to-day updates; whether it be on their eating habits, bowel movements, upset stomachs, accidents in the house, and even scratches and cuts. We want you to have absolute trust in us, while your dog(s) are with us. Outdoor Safety... For the most part, when dogs are a part of a pack they stick together. However, this isn't always the case should a dog like to wonder OR not have the best recall. In these situations, we like to leash the dog until they gain our trust - we use a long lead, and as they continue their stay here we work on using the leash less and less. We have had a lot of success with this, but each dog is different and we treat them as such! Home Environment... - Dogs sleep in our mudroom at the back of our house* - Small crates can be accomodated, but they are not necessary - We have lots of blankets & beds in the mudroom - Dogs are permitted on our furniture on the main floor (couches) - The mudroom acts as a 'holding area' when they are muddy or wet *Dogs are thoroughly tested in our mudroom prior to bedtime, to make sure that there are no issues, toys are removed at bedtime as well. Typically, the dogs are so tired at the end of the day that bedtime goes off without a hitch. Cleaning Routine... We take great pride in our home, and cleanliness is very important not only for ourselves but for our animals' well-being as well. I use Nature's Miracle Stain & Odour Remover + Vinegar and Water to clean floors and walls. This is done frequently as I have a little OCD regarding the cleanliness of the home. This is done both during dog visits and after each dog visit.
