Doggy Daycare
Doggy DAYCARE
A Fun Place for Dogs!
Our premier dog day care service is a fun way to give your pup exercise, mental stimulation, and socialization with both people and other dogs. An excellent alternative to crating a stressed or bored dog that becomes destructive during the day, your dog will be happier and healthier after a day of exercise and play.
We run multiple play groups for dogs of different sizes and play styles, and each new dog is individually assessed and introduced to the proper play group. Each group has its own indoor playroom with radiant heat flooring, a filtered air-handling system, and raised Kuranda beds. An adjoining outdoor yard has play structures, toys, and a shaded patio area. The groups take turns in one of our three large yards.
Dogs also have the opportunity to eat lunch or rest in one of our freestanding 6’ x 6’ or 6’ x 4’ kennels. This downtime is something that most dogs need during the day in order to get the most out of Doggy Daycare.
Our trained staff is happy to administer snacks or oral medications with no additional charge. All medication must be in the original container.
Please note that we are not equipped to care for dogs with certain medical conditions, including but not limited to seizure disorders and diabetes.
Day Boarding
Day boarding is a great option if your dog needs care or company during the day, but doggy daycare isn't a good fit due to age, health, or temperament.
Your dog will spend the day in a private kennel with a heated floor, raised Kuranda bed, and any toys and treats you'd like to bring. Feeding and oral medications are no extra charge.
All day boarding dogs are let out individually into a separate play yard every few hours, depending on your dog's needs.

Daycare Procedures
Your dog must be at least 12 weeks old and current on rabies, distemper and bordetella (kennel cough). Dogs older than six months must be spayed or neutered to attend Doggy Daycare. Male dogs with a vasectomy or female dogs with either a tubal ligation or hysterectomy are welcome to Day Board but cannot participate in Doggy Daycare. Dogs do not need to be spayed or neutered to Day Board.
For safety reasons, retractable leads (also called "flexi-leads") may not be used in the facility. We have leashes you may borrow to bring your dog in from the car if needed.
