DAY CARE

This is the day care you have been waiting for! Fresh air, sunshine, fun and friends, both human and canine. No reservations are required for existing day care clients!

With five indoor and two outdoor exercise yards, your best friend will have ample time and space to romp while you are away. We keep our guests in small groups of compatible canines only, supervised with positive redirection techniques – absolutely no squirt bottles!

Our dogs are good canine citizens and have basic manners continually reinforced through structured play group activities by their capable handlers. Dogs will spend hours in their play groups, then take a nap or rest time, then back out for more fun in play groups.

The indoor yards are floored with 3/8” recycled rubber matting, and our outdoor yards are cushioned with fresh wood chips to provide traction and cushioning, as well as the right natural microbial content to maintain a healthy and sanitary environment for everyone.

When your canine companion is not playing with his or her friends, he/she will have a comfortable, clean room to retire to. No cages!

And a 15:1 ratio of dogs to humans ensures plenty of loving individual attention.

PRIVATE DAY CARE:

For those dogs who need company during the day, but do not appreciate the company of dogs, our private day care program may be just the ticket.

Private day care dogs have a room to themselves, and spend at least three 15
minute sessions in the outside play yards with their handler.

The fee for Private day care is $55 per day.
