Daycare
REQUIREMENTS and NOTICES
All dogs must be 50lbs or under and 18" or shorter from the shoulders down. Typically, we only allow the dog to be at our height or weight requirement, not both. Dogs that are at our max height and weight will be approved at owners discretion.
All dogs must be brought into our building with a leash attached at all times.
We can take reservations for daycare but at this time it is not necessary unless it is during our peak/holiday times. We will consistently post reminders on Facebook when we will be nearing or are at capacity and require reservations. (We do require daycare reservations for dogs who cannot be with other dogs. Subject to availability)
Unfortunately, dogs that jump our 4' fences cannot stay in our facility.
All dog must attend a free evaluation day prior to any services or reservations being made. Those can be scheduled Monday - Friday. With drop off between 8am - 11am and pickup between 3pm - 6pm.
ABOUT DAYCARE FOR YOUR DOG
Let your dog socialize, 7 days a week, in an fun-sized atmosphere or lounge happily watching the action! We have a large play area where dogs can exercise and receive plenty of love and attention from our attentive staff. Unlike other facilities who only separate by size, we separate by temperament to ensure your dog has a blast! After a busy day of care, your pet will look forward to relaxing on the couch with the family!
Half Day Rate…$15 (Less than 5 hours) per day (weekends are 4 hours of play for $15)
Full Day Rate…(5 to 12 hours) $20 per day (full days are only offered Monday - Friday)
For those dogs that are not up for socializing, but need a welcoming place to stay for the day, let them relax in one of our cottages. Staff will keep them company and get them out for potty breaks throughout the day. No more leaving your dog in a crate or in the house alone all day and wondering what you will find when you get home! Please call in advance if your dog cannot be with others. Subject to availability.
For your pet’s protection, and for the protection of others, we carefully evaluate all new clients on their first day here to ensure that they are well suited for socialized daycare. Requirements for daycare guest:
Must be spayed or neutered after 6 months of age (very few exceptions made)
Health requirements must be met (see below).
Must not be protective of toys or jump 4' fences. Must have a gentle play style and dogs that have an aggressive play style will not be allowed in social group.
