A Home Away From Home

Countryside offers pet lodging services 365 days a year!

Countryside offers an array of doggie “digs” and kitty “crash pads” to suit your pet’s needs. Whether you’re going away on a long business trip or for a quick weekend getaway, you can rest easy knowing your pet will be cared for like they are one of our own.

Boarding Requirements

We require all owners ensure that Countryside has proof of current vaccination history, including Bordetella for dogs, and we strongly encourage the vaccination against Feline Leukemia for cats. The use of a flea/tick/Heartworm product is also highly recommended. It is preferable, for Countryside to have your proof of vaccination prior to your stay.

Please bring your pet’s regular diet to help prevent digestive upset during their stay.
We will not give natural bones or any other treat or toy that your pet could crack, splinter or bite a piece off and ingest while staying at Countryside.

Your dog’s day begins and ends with a walk with one of our dedicated staff of pet lovers. We will also take them for two more walks in the afternoon to make sure they are getting enough fresh air and exercise during the day.

Lots of fun!Keep them BusyAlways Happy

In addition to 4 daily walks, your dog will also spend their day in an indoor or outdoor run as per your wishes! If you would like additional exercise for your pup, we recommend that you consider our Stay & Play package which will have your dog joining one of our daycare play packs for the day. Please let us know if you would like to add  Stay & Play days to your boarding plan when you book.

To maintain your dog’s routine, we schedule their private feeding according to your personal preference. It is in your pet’s best interest to have little to no variation in their diet during their stay, so we recommend you provide their regular diet for the duration of their visit. If you would like a special treat for your pooch, we offer Pup Pops (frozen yogurt, peanut butter treats - $4 each) and Stuffed Kongs (filled with poultry and vegetables - $4, $5, $6). Your dog will also be given a stainless-steel water bowl that our team ensures are filled regularly throughout the day.

Our staff will work with your dog one-on-one to determine which Play Pack is the best fit for them. We factor in your dog’s age  as well as their energy level and temperament. Play Packs move through the various play areas throughout the day together and some amazing furry friendships are formed!
Whether your cat is staying in the catacombs or suites, feeding time is something they will do according to your feeding schedule from home. Our staff will regularly refill their stainless-steel water dishes throughout the day and are happy to provide favourite treats from home.

Lots of fun!Keep them BusyAlways Happy

Included in every cat boarding experience is access to the Kitty Maze and Kitty Gym. For at least an hour a day, your cat will have private use to wander through the Kitty Maze (a series of tunnels, both open and enclosed, where they can explore their surroundings) they can climb, perch and play on the Kitty Gym; or just enjoy exploring the cat boarding space.

Our staff regularly interacts with your cat while they board at Countryside, but if you would like a little extra one-on-one care, you can add a Hugs & Kisses session to your cat’s stay. For 30 minutes, our team will play, cuddle, brush or pet your cat. You know your cat the best, so let us know how you would like them to spend this special time and our pet carers will make sure they get some extra hugs and kisses.

FAQs

Are there discounts available for my stay?
Just like a hotel, we offer discounted rates for longer stays. If your pet stays 10+ nights at Countryside, we will automatically take 10% off your final bill. It is that easy! Our rates are based on the size of space you choose for your pet rather than the actual size of your pet so smaller animals do not receive different discounts just because they are small. That would be sizeism!
Is my dog crated during the day?
Does my dog need any vaccinations before staying at Countryside?
What should I pack for my pet?
Does my dog get to play with other animals during their stay?
