What is a Meet & Greet?
What to expect at your visit.
A Meet & Greet is a casual, no-pressure visit to Dog Lounge. You'll tour our space, meet the team, and we'll spend time getting to know your dog including their personality, energy level, and what makes them tick.
We do this because every dog is different. Before we recommend a service, we want to make sure it's the right fit for your dog and for you. There's no commitment required, and it's completely free.

Meet Laura, owner of Dog Lounge
I'm Laura Attard, the proud owner and operator of Dog Lounge, a small family-owned puppy school, training, daycare, and grooming facility nestled in Toronto's Junction neighbourhood. Our signature Puppy Day School and Puppy Training Classes are what we're best known for, but everything we do is rooted in the same philosophy: kindness, enrichment, and understanding your dog as an individual.
I started my career as a veterinary technician specializing in integrative therapies, canine nutrition, and dog behaviour. Over 20 years later, that foundation continues to shape every part of how my team and I care for dogs here.
Dog Lounge is a place where dogs and their owners feel at home, and if you'd let me I'd love to get to know you and your pup.
It only takes 30 seconds.
Why families across west Toronto trust Dog Lounge
Positive, force-free training
Every interaction is rooted in kindness and positive reinforcment. Not punishment based methods.
Enrichment, not just exercise
Mental stimulation, confidence-building & emotional wellbeing is weaved into each of our services, included daycare.
Small groups, big attention
Dogs are separated by size, energy and temperament to make sure they are all comfortable, happy and safe.
Your dog is known by name
We are small family-run business. We cherish getting to know other local families and their pups.
Don't just take our word for it
Our dog Whalen has been to 5 different daycares in his life as we have moved around and the Dog Lounge is by far the best one we have been to!
Laura and her team are so knowledgeable and you can tell how much they care about the dogs. Our dog has been anxious when we've taken him to other daycares but he is so excited and happy every time we take him to the Dog Lounge.
After moving out of the neighbourhood for a few years, we are so excited to be back so Whalen can go to daycare at the Dog Lounge again

We love the Dog Lounge!
The daycare program has already made a big difference for my puppy, and she's only been there twice. She literally runs to the door when we walk by.
I also highly recommend their training programs. Devany is super helpful and knowledgeable, and we're already making great progress with training (which says a lot after our struggles with a previous trainer that didn’t work for us). I am so glad we found her!

Florence (my dog) has been coming here for years.
She loves the staff as the staff loves her.
The team will walk your dog, exercise your dog, and make sure they’re safe, happy, and care-free.
They offer grooming and boarding, and all at reasonable prices.
A gem in the Junction, honestly. Give them a try.
