Paws Team
Paws Playgrounds – Dog Daycare and Dog Boarding
A dog-loving couple from Vancouver, Sue and Jason, started Paws Playgrounds in 2008. After moving to Toronto, we needed to find a safe, reliable and fun pet service for our beloved dog while we worked long hours downtown. After searching in vain for a company that would meet our expectations, we decided to leave the corporate world behind and follow our true passion. Dogs! We opened Paws Playgrounds with the goal of providing a secure, positive environment where every dog could play, learn and grow.
We have spent years researching and refining our services to make sure that we offer the most innovative and enriching experience for our wonderful clients and their pets. Now, umpteen years later, we’ve built a premier facility and playgrounds, we’ve become one of the top rated pet services in the city and we are so excited to continue on this wild, furry journey with you all!

As a child I was cripplingly shy and could only find true comfort and happiness around animals. Dogs helped me grow as a person and have taught me many life lessons and I intend to live the rest of my life trying to help as many dogs as I can from training to fostering.

I am a lover of animals in all shapes and sizes and proud dog mom to my little boy Marley! I am currently studying and perfecting my craft in dog training. Working with the vast range of dogs at Paws Playgrounds is helping me adapt to new challenges to become the best trainer I can be.

Karl
I grew up in England and was the proud dad of 2 little Cavalier King Charles Spaniels named Bonnie & Clyde. After graduating university with my ‘Animal & wildlife behaviour and management’ degree I have travelled the world and worked with all kinds of amazing animals. In the past 7 years I have worked with a variety species including amphibians, dogs, wetland birds, bats, sea turtles, Asian elephants and Humpback whales! My combined experience in both wild and domestic animal behaviour has lead me here to Toronto, to take on a new challenge working with the best Pups Toronto has to offer.
