DAYCARE

Every dog deserves a day off with the gang. Why not yours? Our doggy day care service is a structured day of play and social interaction for your pet.

At 6:30am our day starts with drop-offs. We escort your pet to the daycare room where an active day of running and catch are in order. Our daycare is constantly supervised to make sure everyone is acting like ladies and gentlemen. Playtime is held in two shifts starting at 8:30 am until noon and from 2:00pm until closing.

Daycare is currently open Monday thru Friday of each week. Dogs must be spayed/neutered to be allowed in daycare.

DAYCARE SCHEDULE

6:30am to 8:00am :  Early bird check in; New playmate introductions; Playtime begins
8:00am to 9:00am :  Check-in and playtime continues
10:00am to 12:00pm :  Playtime continues with ball throwing, bubble popping, chasing, wrestling, and outdoor playtime (frequency and length depend upon weather conditions).
12:00pm to 2:00pm : Nap and Snack.  All the lucky dogs go to their personal room for a short nap or rest time.  We give all the dogs a milk bone and turn the lights out.  If you would like to send a lunch for your dog we will feed it to them during this time.
2:00pm to 4:00pm :  Playtime starts off with a run around the outdoor yard and continued indoor and outdoor play with their buddies.
4:00pm to 6:30pm:  Check out begins.  At this time, all the doggies are pretty tired out from all the fun they have had.  This is when some of the dogs sit on the bench and listen to music while others snuggle with their favorite daycare staff or fuzzy buddy.  And then there is always a young pup that still has a little energy left and they will be entertained with more games and indoor and outdoor play.

Doggie Daycare
Dogs staying with us and day visitor pets are able to socialize with other dogs off leash. All dogs go through a screening process before being allowed to play in daycare. The play group will be determined by our staff based on size, personality, temperament, and lodge capacity. The indoor and outdoor play areas will be supervised by our trained staff.

Daycare Requirements
• Dogs must be at least four months old.
• Dogs six months of age or older
must be spayed or neutered.
• Dogs must be up-to-date on vaccinations: rabies, bordetella and distemper.
• Dogs must be happy, healthy, social, friendly and pass an evaluation by our staff.
