Top cities for dog boarding in Canada

For pet parents, one of the hardest things about going to work each day is wondering what your dog will get up to while you are gone. At Pawshake, we understand that dogs need activity and interaction during the day, so why not book your dog with one of our trusted sitters in Centretown for a doggy day care service? You can drop your dog off at the sitter’s home on the way to work or organise with your local Centretown Pawshake sitter to pick up and drop off your dog for you.

Pet day care is a great way to keep your dog mentally and physically active during the day so that you can come home to a happy, relaxed dog. Pawshake’s home day care service is great for young dogs who need constant supervision: puppy daycare allows your pup to maintain a consistent routine, which is important during the toilet training process. It’s also a great option for dogs who need extra care and attention, or those who are extra active.

Our sitters who offer doggy day care and puppy daycare services are more adaptable than your average big day care centre. Numbers are kept small and some Pawshake sitters will only take in one dog at a time. This means they can work around your timing and any special requirements your dog may have. So, let your four-legged best friend enjoy their day with a fun and loving Centretown sitter who will shower them with love and dedicated attention. On top of that, you will also get photos and updates during the day so that you can follow your dog’s day care adventures!

Every day care booking also comes included with The Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer service support 7 days a week and more.

As an experienced caregiver, I have had the joy of caring for a diverse range of animals throughout my life, including cats, dogs, reptiles, bunnies, guinea pigs, and more. This extensive personal experience has equipped me with a deep understanding of their unique needs, temperaments, and preferences.
My primary services include house sitting, dog walking, boarding and pet sitting in the comfort of your own home. I understand that pets thrive best in familiar surroundings, and I am committed to maintaining their routines and ensuring their utmost comfort and happiness while you're away.

Walks will be at least 15mins unless otherwise noted. Lots of time to smell the roses and get business done. For more active dogs, longer walks can be taken.I can also do drop in visits to make sure your pet is getting the attention and care they need when you can't.

Good care and a fun time are what my partner and I can guarantee for your pet! If your fur babies like a day out at the park or they love the outdoors, we live in Rockliffe which is the most dog-friendly neighbourhood in Ottawa! We also frequently take pets out on small hikes to explore the nearby parks if their parents are up for it and want their pets to have a vacation as well 

As a perk - you can put in a special request for some A+ photos as well of your pets as both of us have a knack for photography  

Your pet stays in a home, free to roam and explore, rather than in the confines of a 3-foot cage typical in kennels or pet hotels. 

Grooming, Feeding, Cooking, Walking, Basic Training, Playing and administering basic medication - these are things I pride myself on being good with our four-legged friends. My experience stems from raising 15 dogs myself back in my home country, which includes 8 German Shepherds and 2 Pomeranians apart from the others. I have also adopted 5 other dogs who I have cared for since they were puppies as well. I'd like to say, I know the habits of quite a varied range of breeds.

My partner and I have flexible work-from-home jobs, so depending on if we have rover pets over we work from home or head to the office. We prefer to be home and not leave your pets at home alone in a new environment even if it is just for a bit, as we know how stressful it can be. We’d only accept a booking if we can be present throughout their stay 
Although have not professionally before - I am looking to pursue professional experience in dog training, grooming and care as a new career choice and this would be a stepping stone into it.&nbsp;

Rest assured your fur baby is in good hands with me!
We live in Rockliffe - the most dog-friendly neighbourhood in Ottawa! With many parks and two off-leash fenced parks as well in the area, there is no shortage of fun walks or socializing opportunities for your pet depending on their personality! We live in an apartment but have built the space in our home to keep it open concept and have a nice big ( safely fenced ) balcony as well, where a lot of our pet guests loved lazing in amongst our many many pet-safe plants 

Our apartment has easily and comfortably accommodated 2 dogs, and we would not board more than 2 at a time for their comfort. Giving your pet much-deserved attention while you are away is our priority.

We are very active folks so your pets are guaranteed walks/visits to parks depending on their energy levels and social skills.

What information is important to know about your pet ahead of time?

1) How social is your dog? Do they get along with other dogs and cats?
2) Any specific feeding instructions?
3) Is your pet comfortable at home alone for small stretches of time? If so, for how long?
4) What is your dog's idea of good fun - out in the park, playing fetch, or any specific trick/game?
5) Any barking, Chewing habits or resource guarding?
6) Any reactiveness or aggressiveness towards other dogs?
7) Is your pet fully vaccinated?
8) Free from diseases ( Kennel cough, Fleas, Parasites, etc)
9) Is your pet Spayed/neutered? 




UPDATE April 2025: I have returned after a hiatus of over a year! :)I have always been in love with animals, dogs having been in my life from the very start. My childhood was spent with a cat, a rabbit and more than three dogs. Still, I only had the chance to experience my very own puppy when I was 21, after going to school in vet tech for 5 months. I adopted a nordic breed type pup I named Banshee. She was the first of many dogs, of course... And wild adventures! It brought me into a very fascinating world of sled dogs and rescue, where I took part into for a year, fostering over 25 dogs which I took home, cared for and found new owners for. I saw the sad truth that not every dog was lucky and a bunch had rough starts. I was unable to keep doing this amazing work, the money and space lacking due to moving out, but my heart knows that the day I will be able to help again, I will for sure! My basic knowledge, experience and contact with a variety of dogs (animals in general) from different lifestyles makes me very comfortable and relaxed around them, knowing how to handle situations and being unafraid of any breed/types. Currently living with my family and Banshee who is now 11 years old, I have decided to offer my spare time to people in need of pet services!
I have attended vet tech school for a couple of months, learning cat and dog behavior, basic care and needs, while also working with cattle in a dairy farm on the campus. I have personally owned/fostered a lizard, degus, rabbits, chinchillas and rats. I also ran a sled dog rescue which fostered in a year over 25 nordic breeds which all got rehomed after care/sterilization. I am confident in caring for any type of cat and dog, behavior problems do not scare me. I can offer flexible services directly at your home for your convenience! I will also gladly walk your dog(s) for a good hour so they get their needed exercise!


Hello! I'm Rossana 
your dedicated and trustworthy pet sitter. 
I live in Elmvale Acres and since I bike to provide my services, I offer pet sitting in Elmvale Acres/ Trainyards/Saint Laurent.
With a deep love for animals and years of experience, I provide attentive care and companionship for your furry, feathered, or scaly friends when you're away. 
I grew up with cats, dogs, fishes and hamsters so I am used to deal with many types of animals! I love them ALL.
I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible.I could take your pet for a walk or staying at your house when you are on holiday. I could feed them and give them medications without any problem since I am used to deal with unhealthy pets.I could involve the pet in activities like obedience (especially for high energy pets) or just chill on the couch with older pups. I can easily match with your pet energy and make his/hers needs my top priority !I usually like to stay at home during the weekend so it could be just me, your pets and some good snuggles! 
Having a pet is a big responsibility and I am here to make it easier for you.
Since I attended many International Red Cross trainings I am perfectly comfortable with first aid procedures and I can easily handle needy animals suffering from health issues.
Me and my husband have a senior German Shepherd, former service dog for the Fire Fighters corps. Our angel has been trained for years by my husband and me so dog training is something we could absolutely do if asked. Sometimes my husband helps me too with my customers, especially when I am overbooked. His name is Riccardo, he is a certified dog trainer and he deeply loves all kind of animals. He is a dog expert and madly in love with cats ! 
From daily walks to overnight stays, rest assured that your pets are in safe hands with me, receiving personalized attention and plenty of cuddles!
