“We love Park9! Megara has been coming here for a while now, and every visit has been a wonderful experience. The staff is always kind, attentive, and genuinely cares about the dogs, which gives us so much peace of mind. One of our favorite features is the shuttle service. It makes everything so convenient. We also really appreciate having access to the live cameras so we can check in on Megara throughout the day. It is such a thoughtful feature that helps us feel connected even when we are away.”

Playcare at Pearson YYZ
Whether your dog needs daytime companionship, extra exercise, or intellectual stimulation and socialization, Playcare may be the answer. Dog daycare at Pearson YYZ starts from $36/day for up to 3 hours, with 6- and 12-hour options available.
Our Park9 Pearson YYZ location hosts two large play spaces — indoor and outdoor — and an indoor UV-filtered pool designed especially for dogs.

At the end of the day, your dog will go home tired and relaxed, with what we affectionately call the #Park9hangover.
Prior to attending Playcare, all dogs must be registered and attend a Meet & Greet assessment, where our staff will ensure our Playcare is the right fit for you and your BFF. We pride ourselves on transparency, and as such, we will work with you to ensure your dog is their happiest. Oh — did we mention we have live webcams in our playrooms?

What Pearson YYZ Pet Parents Say
“My dog is usually antisocial with other dogs and people. By the end of her stay she came out of her shell. I enjoyed being able to watch her while I was away on my trip. It definitely made me feel more comfortable seeing that she was being taken care of. Highly recommend. Ivy will definitely be coming back!”
“We are very protective dog dads, and beyond picky about who we trust with our girl, Delilah. From the very first phone call and our first in-person visit at PARK9, it was immediately clear that everything was centered around one question: what can we do that is best for Delilah? Delilah is an older dog, she has anxiety (which can be quite significant at times), and she also has heart disease, so naturally we were extremely concerned about introducing any additional stress into her life. The team at PARK9 was incredibly welcoming, kind, and thoughtful. They listened, asked the right questions, and offered genuine, well-considered suggestions tailored specifically to her needs. What truly stood out to us was being told that dogs come first here, always, even over people. That philosophy alone speaks volumes. The facility is exceptionally clean, and you can genuinely feel how much they care about the animals in their care.”
“Amazing customer service! I can not say enough about all your employees from the front desk to the Slumber Room. I felt comfortable leaving our baby because she sleeps with us at home. This service allowed her to feel like she was at home.”
