Daycare & Playtime

Make an Appointment!
Picture
Playtime or Socialization is essential part of your dog's training and daily life. It's a time for exercise and fun! A way to keep your dog out of trouble while you're at work. Our daycare play sessions are structured and every dog is carefully evaluated before joining the play group. We separate our playtime guests by size, age and suitability.  


​With 11,000 SQ FT of air-conditioned space and a state of the art facility we have plenty of room for playtime!

What to expect?
 We are primarily a training facility so our goal in playtime and socialization is to provide a calm, structured play environment that will benefit the dogs and puppies throughout their lives! 
  • We are not a large group free play facility. Our puppies and dogs play for about 45-minutes to 1-hr at a time and then settle in a crate for about an hr, go for a walk to potty, then return to play again. This is the best method for curating both effective amounts of exercise and a tired dog and a calm state of mind-- being in a play area all day long with rowdy puppies and dogs and no space to calm down and relax/ recoup is not only stressful, but can create behavioral problems.
  • Groups are small: 3-4 dogs 
  • Play groups are always supervised
  • We carefully match our playtime groups based upon: size, age, and play style
  • We are happy to feed lunch-- please bring it in a baggy with any instructions!
  • Playtime is only available Monday- Friday 
  • Appointments are required and we recommend you book in advance. To provide top tier care and attention we only accept a limited number of dogs or puppies for playtime!
  • Before starting: we require a consultation and vaccination records. We are happy to give a video chat tour as well (modified due to COVID restrictions!)  
​We require an appointment! 

​Due to the changing climate of COVID-19 we are currently limiting the number of playtime dogs that we can accept. Please book in advance to secure your spot!

Drop off Monday- Friday 7 a.m. - 6 p.m.

6:30- 7 a.m. drop off by Appointment only.
​ 

Saturday & Sunday: Playtime Unavailable for non in-boarding dogs.
