Designed especially for older pups, The Spot offers a peaceful, supervised environment where comfort, safety, and gentle play come first.



Well to start, The Spot Senior Dog Lounge is a kinder, loving daycare curated specifically for our slower, more sophisticated canine friends - namely, the “seniors”.
The Spot is a lower-energy daycare environment with far less of the intensity that often comes with traditional dog daycares. This “soft” atmosphere results in happier, less overwhelmed senior dogs - and who doesn’t love/want that? (We know your dog would - and we suspect you would too…)
And this focus on senior dogs makes The Spot the first of its kind anywhere we know of - which definitely gives us a cool edge.

And just who runs this crazy joint?
Well that would be me, Jules.
I have owned dogs all my life but to be honest, I’ve gotten so much better as a human companion to my dogs as I’ve aged. As I slow down and my own joints begin to creak and ache, I feel a new empathy and kinship for senior dogs that grows by the day.
Owning and running The Spot Senior Dog Lounge will most likely be my last of three long careers and I can’t think of a better way to ease out of the workforce.
Joining me on this inspiring adventure is the dynamic duo of Payton and Kennedy, the funniest sisters you can ever imagine. P and Ken share my ginormous love of doggos but bring a youthful energy to the operation that I just can’t create on my own. (They are the daughters I never had!) I’m thrilled to have them by my side and I know your dogs will agree.

While most vets classify 8 year old large dogs and 9 year old small-to-medium dogs as seniors, we at The Spot feel that “senior” is more of a vibe than a number.
Is your dog super chill?
Are their days of hikes and rambunctious playing behind them?
Does he/she love sleeping and lounging but preferably in the comfort of others?
(We all know those dogs who don’t really relax when alone — the ones who don’t let their owners out of their sights and follow them incessantly…)
Then they’ll dig The Spot!
And what human might benefit from The Spot Senior Dog Lounge?
Well to be clear, the age of the human means nothing.
But participants could be just about anyone:
• perhaps someone who works outside of the home and feels guilty for leaving their dog alone each day
• or someone who needs to run errands, wants to include their dog on the adventure but simply doesn’t want to leave them in the car for extended periods
If that describes you and/or your dog, then The Spot Senior Dog Lounge might be what you’re looking for!!
The Spot boasts tons of high quality orthopaedic dog beds and soft blankets in all sizes meaning your dog will be comfy regardless of their level of mobility.
And if your senior pooch can still leap like a deer and prefers a higher vantage, we also have a few lower-to-the-ground furnishings that they are more than welcome to snooze on.
(And bonus — each one of those is surrounded by thick non-slip rubber flooring giving our guests solid traction and protection for all their daily ups and downs…)
The Spot will be open Monday-Friday from 7am until 6pm.
We charge $40 for a full days stay and $25 for a half day (5 hours maximum) plus GST.
Every dog deserves to age with dignity, comfort, and joy. Our approach is built around understanding the physical and emotional needs of senior dogs and creating an environment where they can truly thrive.
We believe senior dogs benefit from slower routines and quieter spaces. Our days are intentionally calm, allowing dogs to rest, explore and socialize without pressure or overstimulation.
No two dogs age the same. We take the time to understand each dog’s mobility, energy level and medical needs, adjusting care and enrichment to ensure they feel safe, supported and comfortable.
From supervised group sizes to soft surfaces and calm environment, every detail of The Spot is designed with senior needs in mind—giving you peace of mind while your dog is with us.
