At Sam’s Lodge at Doggieville MTL, we offer a premium dog boarding experience designed to feel like a true home away from home. Unlike traditional kennels, your dog stays in a structured, enriching, and comfortable environment where safety, cleanliness, and emotional well-being come first.

Whether you’re traveling for a few days or planning a longer stay, our dog boarding services in Montreal ensure your furry family member receives personalized care, supervised playtime, and restful sleep in a stress-free setting.

Our dog boarding services in Montreal are ideal for:

  • Busy professionals traveling for work
  • Families going on vacation
  • Dogs needing structured care and supervision
  • Dogs that benefit from socialization and enrichment

Choosing the right dog boarding facility is important and not all environments are the same.

At Sam’s Lodge, we focus on:

  • Private and comfortable sleeping rooms (no cages)
  • Structured daily routines with play, rest, and enrichment
  • Safe and supervised socialization through DV Playcare
  • 24/7 monitoring and security systems
  • Clean, premium environment designed for dog wellness

Our goal is not just to “watch” your dog but to provide a balanced experience that keeps them happy, relaxed, and engaged.

At Sam’s Lodge at Doggieville MTL, our dog boarding experience is built around structure, comfort, and enrichment — giving your dog a balanced and stress-free stay.

Unlike traditional dog kennels, your dog follows a carefully designed daily routine that supports both physical activity and relaxation.

1. Morning Routine (6:00 AM – Breakfast & Potty Break)

Each day begins early with our first outdoor or indoor potty break, depending on the weather.

Afterward, dogs return to their private rooms where they are served breakfast in a calm environment.
We then allow 1.5 hours of rest and digestion time, ensuring your dog starts the day comfortably and without stress.

2. Daycare & Enrichment Activities

Once digestion time is complete, dogs join our DV Playcare daycare program, where they participate in supervised group activities and structured play.

Throughout the day, we focus on:

  • Safe socialization
  • Mental stimulation
  • Physical exercise

Dogs are grouped based on temperament and energy levels to ensure a safe and positive experience.

3. Rest & Break Time

During daycare, dogs are given regular breaks based on their individual needs.

During these rest periods, your dog will:

  • Return to their suite or condominium
  • Take a nap in a quiet space
  • Enjoy optional à la carte treats and add-ons selected by pet parents

This balance prevents overstimulation and keeps dogs relaxed throughout their stay.

4. Feeding Routine (Lunch & Dinner)

If your dog is on a multi-meal schedule, lunch is served during the day.

In the evening, dogs return to their rooms for dinner, followed by another relaxation and digestion period to maintain comfort and proper routine.

5. Evening Routine & Final Call (Around 9:00 PM)

Before bedtime, all dogs have their final potty break of the day.

After this, they return to their sleeping areas to rest for the night in a calm and secure environment.

6. 24/7 Supervision & Safety

At Doggieville MTL, your dog is never alone.

We provide:

  • 24/7 on-site supervision
  • Continuous monitoring and safety protocols
  • A secure and controlled environment at all times
  • Whether your doggie prefers to rest in a suite or enjoy the comfort and social aspect of our condos, a cozy space and bed is dedicated to each of our furry customers.
  • Individualized care with structured days combining playtime, rest and socialization.
  • 24-hour surveillance with up-to-date alarm systems.
  • Spa, grooming treatments, hydrotherapy sessions and other “À la Carte Perks” on demand to enhance our guests’ stay.
  • All pet parents must bring food in ziplock bags pre portioned and MUST leave 2 extra portions for furry guests during their stay, to avoid any shortages for your pup.
  • If your furry baby takes medication please bring pill pockets to administer the medication.
  • There will be a one time Mandatory $80 per dog Behaviour Evaluation Fee to assess temperament, play style, and comfort level, ensuring a safe and positive experience for everyone and to assign the play groups.

All dogs must be up to date on the following vaccines:

  • Bordetella
  • DH2PP (Distemper, Hepatitis, parainfluenza, and parvovirus)
  • Rabies

For stays of 6 and more nights, a departure bath is mandatory.
This ensures your furry baby goes home clean, comfortable, and refreshed after an extended stay and helps us maintain the highest hygiene standards for all guests.

A 10% discount will be applied to the departure bath as part of this care requirement.

In the case that parents don’t come to pick up their babies until our closing hours, we will charge an additional day for your pup to stay.

In Doggieville MTL we accept furry babies if they are not Spayed/Neutered until 11 Months. After the age of 11 Months, all the furry babies are required to get operated. Unfortunately, we can’t accept any fur guest that hasn’t been spayed or neutered who are older than 11 Months as it could interfere with the behaviour and comfort of the other pups around. For these reasons, we ask that all fur guests staying at Sam’s Lodge be spayed/neutered.

But, if your furry baby is not operated for medical reason or any other reason, you can give us a call and we are always happy to make exception to accommodate our furry parents and furry babies needs.

For all boarding stays, we ask that all doggie parents provide the following:

  • Full vaccine record for your pup: Bordetella (valid for 6 months), DA2PP (Distemper, adenovirus-2, parainfluenza and parvovirus) and Rabies.
  • Proportioned food in Ziplock bags plus 2 portions extra in case your plans extend.
  • Medication or supplements that your furry baby is required. (Medication fee will apply) Also pill pockets are required to give the furry babies medication.
  • You can always bring 1 toy which your furry baby likes.
  • A collar with their names for identification. 
  • Please allow yourself at least 35 minutes for creating your doggie profile, it is recommended to call or reserve online at least a few days in advance to get all the information up to date. A scheduled pick up time should also be discussed upon drop off.

For reservations, you should contact us directly as all reservations need to be confirmed by phone, online or in person. Our Paw Crew consultants will be happy to discuss all the boarding, grooming, daycare,  and à la carte perks options DOGGIEVILLE Mtl has to offer! To confirm a reservation, a 100% deposit is required, and the cost of the stay must be paid in full at the time of making the reservation. Keep in mind that all high-season reservations should be made well in advance and incur an additional daily fee.

In order to ensure 100% safety, we ask that you bring your baby prior to their stay for a Behaviour evaluation so that we can assess their overall Behaviour. There are additional charges for evaluations. (If it is a last-minute emergency trip, we are always happy to make an exception to the meet and greet if your furry baby is dog and human friendly.) This is to monitor any temperament characteristics that could potentially be unsuitable at Sam’s Lodge. Otherwise, if all goes well, your pup is welcome to stay at our resort!

The best dog boarding option in Montreal depends on your dog’s needs, your expectations as an owner, and the level of care you’re looking for.

A high-quality dog boarding facility should offer:

  • A safe and clean environment
  • Structured daily routines with playtime and rest
  • Supervised socialization with other dogs
  • Comfortable sleeping areas (not cages)
