Daycare Questions
Dog Daycare is the exact equivalent of daycare and school for kids. You drop them off in the morning before work and pick them up before 7pm to go home and snuggle.
No. Boarding means leaving your dog in our care overnight. As mentioned before, daycare is from 7am to 7pm, Monday through Friday, school for your dog.
The minimum requirements are that your dog passes the evaluation exam prior to being allowed in daycare. They should also be spayed or neutered by year 1, be under regular veterinary care, and have the Rabies, DHPP and Bordetella vaccines.
Boarding Questions
Our Boarding Homes offer an all inclusive, cage free, home environment where your dog(s) can roam, relax, and play as they do in your own home. No crates, dingy kennels, or even “luxury” suites here!
Dog Boarding at DoggyDay is like being at home with them yourself
We take them out on a minimum of 2 walks per day, and when possible on our dog walking appointments and all other errands.
They get to play with lots of other doggies each and every day and get lots of exercise.
At home, they curl up at our feet or on our lap, chew their favorite treats and bones, cuddle with us everywhere, and sleep in our bed at night (unless mommy and daddy forbid it).
We board a maximum of 2 guest dogs depending on the host and the pets in question.
Yes, we offer Pet Taxi. Please contact us us for an estimate.
Because our boarding “facilities” are someone’s private home, we schedule drop-offs and pick-ups between 9am and 7pm.
If you are leaving or returning outside of those hours, please board your pet the night before and pick them up the morning after your arrival.
Your pick-up and drop-off appointments are part of our boarding hosts work schedule. This means they are waiting for you at those specific times and have other appointments throughout the day. If you’re running early or late for your pick-up or drop-off appointment, you need to communicate that with your host as soon as possible.
