Before your first Petchi visit
Bring the story behind the dog.
Useful care begins with context that cannot be captured by a name, age and breed alone.
Think about a normal day at home. Meal times, sleep, walks, play, favourite activities and the routines that help your dog settle all provide a practical baseline.
Social history is equally important. Describe how your dog responds to unfamiliar people, dogs of different sizes, busy environments, handling and moments when they need space. Honest information supports better decisions and should never be treated as a test to pass.
Relevant health details may include medication, allergies, mobility, recent illness, dietary needs or veterinary guidance. Final document and vaccination requirements will be published before services become available.
Everyday life
What does normal look like?
Share meals, rest, activity, habits and the routines that help your dog feel secure.
Social comfort
How does your dog communicate?
Explain positive experiences, uncertainties, play preferences and signs that space is needed.
Health
What should the team know?
Provide accurate medical, mobility, medication and dietary information where relevant.
The planned first-visit journey
Share, meet and plan.
Three clear stages can create a more informed start.
Share. Tell Petchi what kind of help you are looking for and provide the routines, history and health context that may influence fit.
Meet. Use the introductory conversation or visit to ask questions, observe comfort and clarify how the planned service works.
Plan. Choose the next step only after the individual dog and current service availability are understood. Final processes may differ across daycare, boarding and grooming.
First visits in Richmond Hill
Know where you are going and what remains pending.
Petchi’s address is confirmed; operational visit details are still being finalized.
The first location is at 11160 Yonge St, Richmond Hill, ON L4S 1K9. Pet parents should wait for approved hours, parking, entrance and booking instructions before relying on an arrival plan.
Families may travel from elsewhere in York Region or from North York along the Yonge Street corridor. Consider the dog’s travel comfort and the practical frequency of future visits when deciding whether the location is a good fit.
Once public contact details are approved, this page will connect the correct meet-and-greet, waitlist or booking action. It will not route visitors to an invented form or an unverified destination.
Questions worth bringing
Feel confident before saying yes.
Good providers should welcome specific questions about the care experience.
Ask how activity and rest are balanced, how service fit is evaluated and what happens if the dog appears uncomfortable. Ask which observations are shared with the family and how changes in health or behaviour are handled.
For boarding, ask about familiarization, overnight routine and what to bring. For grooming, ask how coat condition, handling comfort and estimate changes are communicated.
Daycare
Is group care appropriate?
Discuss social history, comfort, recovery and the planned assessment process.
Boarding
What supports a good stay?
Prepare routines, food, medication, emergency information and separation history.
Grooming
What affects the appointment?

Preparing without overpreparing
Honest information is more useful than perfect information.
You do not need to present a flawless dog.
Pet parents sometimes worry that sharing a challenge will prevent access to care. In reality, a useful provider needs accurate context to make safer and more appropriate recommendations. Describe what you observe without minimizing or dramatizing it.
Whether you live in Richmond Hill, elsewhere in York Region or North York, the goal is the same: find a care setting that understands the dog in front of them and explains the next step clearly.
A practical local choice
