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 Toronto 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 Toronto 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 Toronto 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.

Since I was very young, animals have been my safe place and my most sincere source of peace. They have a unique way of showing love without saying a word, and every time I’m around one, I feel calm, happy, and deeply grounded. That special connection is what inspired me to become a pet sitter—because caring for animals is not just a job for me; it’s something that truly fills my heart.

I see myself as a creative, active, and very sensitive person. I love art, learning new things, and sharing genuine moments with others. I can be a little shy at first, but I am strong, responsible, and always willing to give my best in any task or activity. I believe that my multifaceted personality and positive energy help me create a safe, loving, and joyful environment for every pet I meet.

I have experience caring for and walking dogs of different sizes, personalities, and needs. I understand that every animal has their own rhythm, their own way of communicating, and their own story. That’s why I take the time to make sure they feel protected, understood, and comfortable. My priority is always their safety, peace, and happiness.

For everyone’s safety, I only welcome vaccinated pets into my home. I also offer home visits where I can feed them, keep them company, play with them, and take them for a walk. Every small task is done with care, patience, and respect.

When I take care of an animal, I treat them as if they were part of my own family—with love, responsibility, patience, and joy. Their well-being means everything to me, and I always do my best to create a space where they feel loved, cared for, and completely at peace.


No pet at this moment. Please rest assure your pet to stay at my home:)
I have up to ten times experience for boarding a cat or dog. I only keep one cat or dog at once. Unless two pets are from same family:) 
I love dogs and cats, and I enjoy spending time with them. I am a volunteer at a cat shelter in my hometown, and I live with my boyfriend who has a first aid license for animals. We don't have a pet at the moment, so you pet will be safe under our careAs a volunteer at a cat shelter, I have had the opportunity to work with and care for many feline friends. In addition to my work at the shelter, I also enjoy spending time with my friends' dogs and cats. Being around animals brings me a lot of joy, and I find it fulfilling to help provide them with the care and attention they need.
- Our passion for animals- My boyfriend has a pet first aid license, allowing us to quickly respond to emergencies- We have our own car, which enables us to transport animals to a clinic quickly- We are committed to providing exceptional care for all of our furry clients.- Providing comfort and care to animals in need- Helping pet owners by providing peace of mind that their pets are well-cared for

Hi, I’m Ashley— a lifelong dog lover with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all shapes and sizes! I grew up in a dog-loving household and have been a dedicated pet parent to my own sweet cockapoo for the past 8 years.

Since 2018, I’ve been providing dog walking, boarding, and sitting services with a focus on creating a safe, force free, fun, and cozy home-away-from-home for your dog. I understand how tough it can be to leave your pup — that’s why I treat every dog like family. Whether we’re cuddling on the couch, heading to the park, or playing tug-of-war, your dog will be loved, entertained, and cared for as if they were my own.

Why choose me?
•Home full-time (daytime and weekends)
•Rarely gone more than 4 hours at a time and I always monitor pups via webcam if I step out
•Dog-friendly environment in Midtown Toronto with access to several dog parks and walking areas
•Friendly resident cockapoo who loves new playmates
•Flexible scheduling and open communication
•Trusted by regular, returning clients since 2018

Whether your pup loves long walks, cozy naps, or lots of playtime, I’m here to make them feel right at home. I can’t wait to meet your dog!!&nbsp;

Hi, my name is Ilya!
I'm excited to introduce myself as your go-to pet sitter, and I can't wait to pamper your furry friends. With over 35 years of experience caring for pets, I've decided to turn my passion into a fulfilling retirement gig.
My wife and I reside in a spacious detached home with a fenced backyard, providing a safe and comfortable environment for your pets. We share our home with a friendly 10-year-old rescue dog named Bim, who gets along famously with other canine companions.
I offer a range of services, including doggy daycare, dog boarding, home visits and dog walking. However, please bear in mind that I prefer not to work with dogs who are strong pullers to prevent any unnecessary strain.
For the well-being of all our guests, I only accept vaccinated and spayed/neutered pets. Rest assured, your pets will always have company. My wife works from home, meaning we are practically always available to shower your pets with the love and attention they deserve.
To ensure a perfect match, I follow Pawshake's policy of scheduling a meet and greet with you and your pet. During their stay, I'll be happy to keep you connected with updates, pictures, and videos, so you'll always have peace of mind!
Think of me as the spoiling grandpa your pet will love to come back and visit. Let's make your pet's stay exceptional - Looking forward to hearing from you!Ps: I speak English, Russian and Hebrew :)&nbsp;


As a certified and experienced dog trainer, I bring a unique set of skills to my dog sitting services, ensuring your beloved pet receives the highest level of care and attention. 
I understand that every dog has a unique personality, preferences, and needs. Whether your pup is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or somewhere in between, I tailor my approach to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy during their time with me.
With a solid background in dog behavior and training, I can manage dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. 
My services go beyond the basics of feeding, walking, and playtime. I integrate enrichment activities and exercises that stimulate your dog both mentally and physically. If desired, I can also reinforce any training routines or commands you’re working on, providing consistency and support to their learning process.
I prioritize your dog’s well-being, offering a structured yet loving environment where they feel at ease. Whether you need a sitter for a day, a weekend, or an extended period, you can trust that your pet is in capable hands. My goal is to ensure your dog has a fun and positive experience while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re cared for by a professional.&nbsp;

I am a caring, patient, and responsible pet sitter who truly loves spending time with animals. My 13-year-old daughter and I both adore dogs, and we are always happy to welcome them into our home as part of our family. We create a warm, calm, and safe environment where every dog can feel relaxed, comfortable, and secure during their stay.

With a gentle and attentive approach, I carefully observe each dog’s individual needs and personality. I provide plenty of affection, playtime, supervision, and daily care to ensure they feel loved and supported. We enjoy going for walks, spending time outdoors, and maintaining a peaceful routine that helps dogs feel happy and stress-free while their owners are away.

I understand how important trust and clear communication are when choosing a pet sitter. That is why I send regular updates, photos, and messages to keep pet owners informed and reassured. For the safety and well-being of all pets in our home, we only accept dogs that are fully vaccinated.

The dogs have a good time with us... we'll reassure nervous owners!
Previously with another company in the U.S.  for many years, we thought it important to offer our services on a Canadian website.
You will get regular pictures of your pets stay with us!
Located right in downtown Toronto steps away from St. James Park where your pooch will go for three or four walks a day.Myself, John, has had dogs for over forty years. I’m retired so your pooch will only be left alone in rare circumstances. Koichi is working but will supply all kinds of cuddles and lavish loads of affection on your pooch.Your pup will have a free run of the apartment and also see what’s going on from our small balcony. At night your pooch will have ‘goodnight cuddles’ on the bed but be expected to sleep on a dog bed afterwards, although even that sometimes gets forgotten! We’ll maintain the feeding/treat schedule you already have so your pooch will feel comfortable.You’ll be able to go on vacation knowing your dog is being looked after just like our own. We’ll send you regular photo updates to let you know how they are doing.I am retired, so your pet will only be left alone for the occasional grocery shopping spree or maybe an evening dinner out—a maximum of two or three hours.Our apartment is dog-friendly, i.e. allowed on the sofa! I believe our reviews will reassure those nervous owners that your pup will be in good hands in a safe environment.&nbsp;


I have grown up with dogs my entire life, and I started taking more of a direct role in taking care of the family dogs over the years when I was 10 years old. I have experience taking care of small, medium, and large-sized dogs from potty-trained puppies to senior cuties. I have provided dog walking, doggy daycare, overnight boarding, drop-in visits, and house-sitting services for many family members and friends over the years.I have also 1 year of experience in taking care of cats. I have an equal love of cats and dogs in my heart to provide the best care for every pet. I have experience with taking care of single-cat and multiple-cat households ranging in age from litter-trained kittens to senior cats. I have provided drop-in and house-sitting services to many of my cat-owning friends. 
My motivation to being a pet sitter is to provide love and care to every animal I meet while keeping them as cozy and comfortable around me since I understand the strong bond between a pet and their owner.About my services:I am available to offer the following for dogs: dogwalking, overnight boarding, doggy daycare, housesitting and drop-in visits. I am available to offer the following for cats: housesitting and drop-in visits.&nbsp;For dogwalking I can take 30min to 1 hour walks 4 times a day, and can walk up to 2 dogs at once. For dog daycare and overnight boarding I can take care of 2 dogs total in my space, so one client with 2 dogs would be the max in this instance. For house-sitting and drop in visits I offer services to single animal and multiple animal households of dogs, cats and mixed (dogs and cats together). I can administer oral or ointment medications as well as basic grooming (brushing, bathing if messy).Pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine very well as I work remotely so I am able to give as much attention as possible with my services and am available every day of the week morning, afternoon and evenings. I am able to supervise pets 24/7.&nbsp;I live by myself in a one-bedroom apartment in a pet-friendly apartment complex with a concrete patio space. There are multiple parks in short walking distance and green space by the apartment building for pets to use. Guest pets are allowed to sleep anywhere they may like in my care as I believe a comfy pet is a happy&nbsp;pet.During drop-in visits am able to stay with pets for about an hour or so as well as watering plants and bringing in mail. For house sitting I am able to stay in the owner's home during the entire time (with the exception of running errands to a grocery store for instance). I keep the doors locked at all times when I am in or out of the home to keep myself and the pets in my care safe.

Why us
 Safety is our #1 priority We don’t off-leash your dogs on the street or anywhere without a fence. We hate to see dogs get missing. 
 We only take 1-2 dogs at a time. 
 Every dog deserves to be loved, despite their breeds. We treat them all as our own.
 We are a very quiet family, no kids, no crazy barking dogs, no parties or visitors. Great for timid dogs. 
 We take your dogs out for walks and not just leave them in the backyard/house.
 We are attentive and responsive, we listen to your dog’s needs. 
**We accept puppies (under 8 months) that are not spayed/neutered, but have to be potty trained. 
*Since we live in a very quiet neighborhood, and my dog is sensitive to loud noises, we cannot take dogs that bark excessively/have separation anxiety. Thank you for your understanding.️

I've taken care of dogs of every kind most of my life, and I love all animals. I will be able to walk, feed, play with, bathe, your pets and even administer medication(s) if required. I will treat your pup(s) friend like a family member as if they were my own. There are lovely parks in the area and I also have a car to take them to off leash parks in the area. Over the years I have I also volunteered with various rescue organizations and I have taken care of many dogs for both family and friends.&nbsp;
I have an open home, and accept dogs of all shapes, sizes, breeds and ages, and don't have a dog in my home at present, (which is ideal for dogs that may require solo care).  There are lots of parks in the area and paths we can walk through together, and lots of other pups in the area to play with, (if your pup is good with other dogs).&nbsp;&nbsp;
Pups are allowed on my furniture and I encourage it.  I do however, go by your pup's program, schedule and what you wish.  They will be walked every 3-4 hours and also they will be fed based on their current schedule. As I am alone in my apartment, I am able to devote all my time on your pup. The longest I would ever be out of my home is 2 hours however, because I am primarily home, that won't be very frequently.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I have a one bedroom apartment on the 2nd floor. I do not have any plants only artificial which are out of reach. I have a very dog friendly apartment.  The building is very dog friendly.  I also have an elevator in case your pup doesn't like stairs.&nbsp;&nbsp;
I have a balcony which has artificial grass and also I have places for your pup to sit and enjoy a little sunbathing. I will never leave your pup unattended on the balcony.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Before I accept any dog, I like to arrange a meet-and-greet, so make sure we all get along, and so if you think I might be a great fit, please contact me, and let's have a chat!&nbsp;
