Our Cabbagetown Board & Train is built for the specific reality of the neighbourhood: tight Victorian staircases, narrow sidewalks on Wellesley and Winchester, the daily walk through Riverdale Park East, and the cross-traffic crowds on Parliament. We proof every behaviour in the routes your dog already lives.

Cabbagetown's mix of long-time residents and young families means our handover includes guidance for households with kids, multi-generational living, and the occasional rotating roommate. Three in-home transfer sessions in your Victorian make sure the training actually holds at home.
