Dog daycare is often treated as a one-size-fits-all solution. Drop your dog off, let them play all day, and pick them up tired.
In reality, dog daycare in Toronto works best when it’s tailored to the individual dog. Energy levels, social preferences, and tolerance for stimulation vary — especially in an urban environment.
At Camp Canine, we take a personalized approach to dog daycare, even within a single open play space.
Not all dogs experience daycare the same way.
Some dogs thrive in constant play. Others prefer short bursts of interaction, more rest, or staying close to staff. When these differences aren’t recognized, dogs can become overstimulated or stressed.
A quality dog daycare adapts to the dog — not the other way around.
Camp Canine operates in a large, open dog daycare space, which means personalization comes from active supervision, not separation.
Our trained daycare staff continuously monitor:
This allows us to adjust pacing, redirection, and rest in real time.
There’s no single definition of success in dog daycare.
A positive daycare day may include:
All of these are healthy and appropriate daycare experiences.
In an open daycare environment, preventing overstimulation is key.
Our team is trained to spot early signs of overstimulation, including heightened reactivity, difficulty settling, or frantic play. When we see these signs, we step in to slow things down and encourage rest.
A tired dog isn’t always a relaxed dog — and we take that seriously.
How often a dog attends daycare matters just as much as how daycare is run.
Some dogs do best attending dog daycare in Toronto multiple days per week. Others benefit from fewer visits. We work with families to find a schedule that supports long-term wellbeing.
Dogs change, and their daycare needs can change too.
We communicate openly with dog parents about:
Our goal is to create a dog daycare experience your dog enjoys and succeeds in.
Dog daycare isn’t one-size-fits-all — even in one shared play space.
At Camp Canine, personalized dog daycare comes from experienced staff, thoughtful supervision, and an understanding of what dogs need to thrive.
