All drop-offs are between 6:00 a.m. – 9:00 a.m.

All pick-ups are between 2:00 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.

If your dog is boarding, pick-up is by 10:00 a.m. the following day. After 10:00 a.m., your dog will be checked into daycare and is welcome to stay through the day.

For the safety of our staff and dogs, our doors are locked at 7:30 p.m. Staff cannot open doors after hours without management approval. Exceptions may be granted for a $30 after-hours fee.

If you cannot make your scheduled pick-up, no worries—your pup is in good hands.

If you cannot arrive by 7:30 p.m., we’ll simply extend your dog’s stay with overnight boarding. Please let us know as soon as possible so we can prepare dinner for them.

We are a cage free facility. We do not have kennels to hold individual dogs at a given time should your dog or another dog feel stressed.

Stress reveals itself in many way including excessive barking, jumping, digging, baring teeth, reactivity, aggressive behavior and cowering.

We require daycare dogs attend a minimum of one (1) time per week to ensure the pack is consistent and comfortable with each other.

For those who would like to board, if your dog has not attended within the last month, we require a re-visit plus 1-2 additional visits to ensure there are no signs of stress before you jet-off. We also require an emergency contact so we are confident there is back-up should we have concerns.

Having dogs come with enough frequency gives is knowledge and comfort that all the dogs at our facility will feel safe and comfortable.

Our Daily rate is $48.

We require that daycare dogs come a minimum of one (1) time a week to be considered "active."

We feed every dog individually in a private feeding room according the details you have shared in Kennel Connection as well as on our check-in paperwork.

On occasions, we may feed siblings together but only if clients have asked or agreed that siblings may eat together.

If you have a picky eater, please share recommendations. We have a few tricks up our sleeve including warm water, beef broth, peanut butter, pumpkin, rice and other treats. We take notes at each feeding how much a dog has eaten. If we notice that they have not eaten two meals in a row, we will reach out!

A reminder: While we keep track of dog allergies, it is best to remind us in your reservation if you are expecting us to feed your dog.

All food must be individually bagged per meal (e.g., Monday AM, Monday PM, Tuesday AM). Please double-check your bag count and consider packing an extra meal or two.
