We require all clients to be current on an effective flea and tick prevention, heartworm with a de-wormer (Heartguard Plus or equivalent), and current on all vaccines (Rabies, Bordetella, and DHLPP). Dogs are grouped by similar size and temperament for a fun and safe experience.

Daily Routine

Dogs go out 5-6+ times per day. The first out for boarding dogs is 6-6:30am and last out of the day is between 9-10:30p. Puppy rates include one extra out early morning as needed for your pup typically around 1-2:30a. 
 
All dogs have to have their own safe space where their own food, water, toys and other personal belongings stay. They are in their own safe space when we are not home, at night and in between group rotations if there is a group out that they are not compatible with. We have several options to best accommodate your pet. We use what is best for your dog and what they are most comfortable with. All dogs are inside in AC unless out for outside playtime. We have 4’x8’, 4’x6’, 4’x4’ easy clean kennels, Great Dane 54” crates, 48” crates and puppy playpens (small dogs or older dogs) for our normal boarding and daycare setup. If you have a puppy that is crate training we do have smaller crates available to continue crate training while in our care. 
 
M-F large emphasis on daycare playtime with indoor and outdoor playtime. Groups get house time and outside playtime in rotations several times per day. Duration outside depends on the weather as safety and well being of the dogs is our #1 priority. When it is hot outside (summer time as an example) they will go out more frequently but less time outside each time. When it is cooler outside (winter for example) we will stay outside for longer duration and less frequent rotations throughout the day because they are out longer play periods at a time. They get to enjoy house time (indoor play) in small groups as well. Dogs are allowed on the couch (unless we are told otherwise by clients). They get the main area of the house no access to bedrooms. 
 
Daycare is included at no extra charge with boarding rates. If your dog is compatible they get to play in groups during their boarding stay. If they are not compatible they go out one on one with myself or trusted person. 
 
Sat/Sun
We do not take same day daycare clients on weekends or holidays. Sat/Sun we have a work life balance so less housetime focus and more outside playtime. They go outside 4-5 times per day for playtime and potty breaks on weekends.
