A Tired Dog is a Happy Dog
The idea for Canine Cardio came to me after a run with my Black Lab, Lucy. Not only was it fun bonding with her during our runs, it was also a great outlet for all of her two year old energy! Since opening in 2012, my goal has been to provide safe and fun exercise for the pups of Providence and surrounding areas. If your dog could benefit from our “Wagging Trails” Off Leash Group, I would love to hear from you. Clayton Roth-Owner

About Me
MY NAME IS Clayton
I started Canine Cardio Company in 2012 to help people with highly active dogs get the exercise they need. It’s been my pleasure to serve the people and pups of the Providence Metro area for the last 13 years.
I have been a runner for over 20 years and completed numerous marathons and half marathons. I currently pace races around RI with the Rhode Island Road Runners.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and dogs, being outside and watch collecting.

Why Canine Cardio?
“PERSONAL TOUCH. It’s just me. I believe dogs and pet owners find comfort in one trusted and qualified person caring for them. Time and time again, I have formed bonds with dogs who have anxiety around meeting new people. ”
“EXPERIENCE. I have done over 3000 group excursions. I understand pack management and will ensure your dog has the safest and most fun off leash experience they possibly can”
“SAFETY. Our “Wagging Trails” Off Leash Excursions take place in a huge fenced in, escape proof private area. This helps to prevent the threat of wildlife, people and a dog getting separated from the group. It’s a giant doggy playground of our own! ”
“REPUTATION. Canine Cardio has been serving the Providence area for 13 years. I have been fortunate to care for hundreds of dogs during that time. Word of mouth travels fast in our tiny dog community, My clients have been the best form of advertising I could ask for. ”
