Come on in for a Meet & Greet… You gotta see this place!

Welcome to the coolest dog daycare & dog boarding space in toronto!

When your dog stays with us they will have exclusive access to both our brand new one of a kind Dog Daycare & Dog Boarding facility in the Toronto Portlands, as well as our Private Acre Forest Dog Run; a fully fenced half acre of privately leased forest land located just down the street from our Daycare. We spend our days as a pack, engaging in both outdoor and indoor activities. We can choose to play in one large group or we can split our indoor and outdoor areas into multiple yards depending on our dog pack’s needs. We ensure that all dogs; large, small, old, young, etc. are all able to have a comfortable and fun time with us!

Located at 39 Commissioners Street in a 2 story beautiful brick historic building, we have transformed a piece of Toronto’s rich history as one of it’s first Firehalls, into something truly special.
 

some of our custom features include…

…Top of the line solid sealed poured epoxy flooring. This floor is completely sealed wall to wall throughout, no more seams like with the old rubber style flooring where bacteria seeps in and gets trapped. Yuck.

…Fully custom gating system; allowing dogs free run off leash indoors and outdoors, while always ensuring their safety and security.

…Depending on the needs of our pack, our building can be converted from one massive play area to up to 5 personalized zones so we can accommodate dogs of all sizes and energy levels.

…With 6000sqft of on site outdoor space, the largest outdoor play yard in the city, we can all play as a group or create up to 4 completely separate outdoor play areas!

…Small dogs that spend the day with us can enjoy their own private play area with only other small dogs, or they socialize with the whole pack if they are comfortable.

…Private Sleeping Accommodations for both Small & Large Dogs available upon request. These accommodations can range from full size kennel rooms (2ft x 5ft or 3ft x 5ft), to completely Private Bedrooms.

…Custom Built Feeding Room complete with feeding stalls. This ensures that your dog is eating their food in complete portions every single time. We never feed dogs as a group.

…Professional Grade HEPA Air Filtration System. These units are installed on top of AC and Heat and provide 4 levels of extra filtration ensuring clean, odor free air throughout our space.

 
 

We transport our pack to our private acre forest dog run in our customized, fully temperature controlled dog shuttles. They have separate riding areas for small and large dogs for safety during travel. They are also lined metal ribbing, sprayed with rock hard insularion, and further lined with fiberglass to ensure a fully secured riding area. They are equipped with professional grade HVAC units that maintain a consistent temperature at all times. They also feature fleet grade security systems that include Engine Immobilizers, Drone GPS, Remote Start & Stop and Mobile Engine/Temperature control.

We have been searching for years for a place where we could provide ample indoor AND tons of outdoor space for our pack but still keep the warmth and flow of a home, not a warehouse and we have finally found it! We are surrounded by industrial parking lots so we are able to run, play and bark outside without having to worry about being in a residential neighbourhood – which means we can actually play outside all day long!

When your dog joins our pack they become a part of our family. Our motto has always been “Same Pack Leaders. Same Pack Mates. Every Time.” We provide a consistent daily routine involving high energy play, group socialization and, of course, super awesome evening cuddle sessions. We don’t have a revolving door of staff. All of our staff members are trained, hard working dog lovers. Your dog will never be alone when they stay with Soulmutts.

We have been providing high energy, off leash dog walking services downtown Toronto since 2008. We have a consistent pack of dogs who walk a minimum of 3 days/week for 2 very important reasons. Our dogs know each other very well and they know their routine. We are not introducing new dogs to another all the time, or multiple new dogs at once. This way we can maintain a much higher level of control over our pack’s behaviour and we can take away the unpredictability factor that is so prevalent at public dog parks. Furthermore, our pick and drop off schedule stays very consistent this way. When we start a new dog we integrate them onto our set driving route and we stick to it every day so that you and your dog can come to expect us in a much narrower window of time than most driving dog walking services.

How Does It Work?

We pick your dog up from your home and bring them to our Private Acre Forest Dog Run for some real high energy off leash play. This land is privately leased and is not open to the public. It’s a completely natural forest that has been fully fenced in; complete with unloading and loading zones so everything is done behind closed gates. It’s a great big space, full of trees, with a totally natural woodchipped substrate. We keep our private land clean and free of garbage, food and poop. We have an onsite water station, as well as fun doggy climbers for the dogs to play on and under 🙂 We do not use any personal toys/balls – only communal ones to avoid possession issues and we do not carry/use treats to control our pack on our outings.

All the dogs that come into our dog run have gone through our Meet & Greet Assessment process and meet our 3 service requirements:

They are Well Socialized, Non Aggressive and Fully Vaccinated.

We only take our dogs to our Private Acre Forest Dog Run, located near Cherry Beach. There are many things we love about our private land but the top five reasons are:

• We Know Every Dog There

  
  The only dogs that are permitted in our space have undergone our assessment process and have been deemed as being “Pack Safe”, which means they meet our 3 requirements for service: They are Well Socialized, Non Aggressive and Fully Vaccinated.

 
 

• We Know Every Person There

  
  We’ve all had bad experiences at a public parks with dog owners/dog walkers who aren’t paying attention to their dogs. At our park our pack leaders are on site to supervise, manage and mediate play. Since it is always the same pack leader picking up your dog they come to know them very well and know how the dogs in the pack are going to react to one another and what their likes/dislikes are!

 
 

• Dogs Can Move at Their Own Pace

  
  We’ve got dogs of all ages and energy levels with us. They can choose to run around through the forest, follow us around if they prefer human play, hang out in the shade under the trees, sun bathe in the tree clearings, play with toys or not, play in groups or one on one – whatever suits their play style, ability and energy level.

 
 

• It’s a More Natural Environment

  
  We love the trees and they provide us with a more natural setting, which always ends up being a great help to us. In the winter they provide an excellent wind barrier and in the summer the shade is absolutely invaluable.

 
 

• Dog Toys, Supplies & Cleanliness

  
  We have everything we need on hand at the dog run; fresh water, dog toys, poo bags, first aid kit, etc. We take pride in the cleanliness of our park and make sure that we are always on the look out for stray poops. We also have fresh wood chips delivered on a regular basis.

 
 

We transport our dog pack in our one of a kind, top of the line dog shuttles. These are the largest, safest vehicles on the road. They are fully customized through Mercedes Benz and Industrial HVAC Professionals.

 
These vehicles do not exist anywhere else on the road – they are a Soulmutts creation! Some of the most important features of our one of a kind dog shuttles include:

• REINFORCED METAL RIBBED INTERNAL WALLS FOR TRANSPORTATION SAFETY
• SEALED FIBERGLASS INTERIOR TO ALLOW FOR PROPER TOP TO BOTTOM SANITATION
• SEPARATE SECURE RIDING AREAS FOR SMALL / LARGE DOGS
• PROFESSIONAL GRADE HVAC SYSTEMS & TEMPERATURE CONTROL
• GPS DRONE LOCATION TRACKING & MOBILE CONTROL
• REMOTE STARTER & ENGINE IMMOBILIZER WITH MOBILE CONTROL
• THERMOSTAT TEMPERATURE CONTROL (FRONT TO BACK)
• CUSTOM DAYLIGHT LED LIGHTING FOR THE DOGS WHILE RIDING

We are happy to open our doors to dogs who are not regular Dog Walking / Dog Daycare / Dog Sitting clients of ours, however, we must always ensure that we only integrate new dogs who meet our 3 Requirements. A meet & greet must be arranged prior to departure for a full assessment.

Our Dog Ranch is located just outside of Apsley, Ontario and is in a short distance from a reputable veterinarian clinic, as well as an emergency service animal hospital.

All supplies for your dogs stay and travel are included in the cost. The only thing you need to pack is food!

• VACCINATION

All dogs must be fully vaccinated to participate in group activities. Mandatory vaccinations in Ontario include: Rabies, DHPP Boosters (Rounds 1, 2, & 3). Though it is not mandatory, we always recommend the Bordetella vaccine (kennel cough)
any time you’re bringing your dog off leash with other dogs (eg. city dog parks).

• SPAYING & NEUTERING

All adult dogs must be fixed. We fully support and encourage the spaying & neutering of dogs and cats. Puppies that are still too young to be spayed/neutered are exempt from this rule.

• TEMPERAMENT AND BEHAVIOUR

All dogs must be well socialized and free from any aggressive/uncontrollable/unpredictable behavior. We absolutely believe that each and every dog can be trained and/or rehabilitated, however these skills require proper training and the pack environment is not suitable for such exercises. The safety of our pack mates always comes first!

At Soulmutts Toronto Ltd. we provide flexible services for you and your dog.  We are a close knit pack and strive to maintain our pack balance by slowly introducing new dogs and keeping them on a consistent schedule.  We are a high energy off leash group environment. On our outings and at our Decked Out Dog Daycare/Boarding House we practice free run socialization. We let the dogs be dogs!

We’ve been around for almost 10 years now and have watched Toronto’s dog walking,
dog daycare and dog boarding business really take off. Though we’re often imitated (sometimes even word for word) we’re never duplicated! We’re always working to offer one of a kind services to you and your dog that you won’t find anywhere else!
