Daycare
Somewhere for your dog to spend a Tuesday. Drop off from 7am, pick up by 7pm, no overnight. Cats can day-board too, in the quiet wing, which surprises people.
Day rates
Buy one day or buy ten.
Packs never expire and any member of the household can use them. There is no membership fee and no annual anything.
Dog, full day
$38
per day · up to 12 hours
All three yard rotations, lunch if you send it, and a nap in a suite at 10am and 1pm.
Dog, half day
$26
per day · up to 5 hours
Morning or afternoon. Good for puppies who run out of battery before lunch.
Ten-day pack
$340
ten full days · saves $40
The regulars' option. Works out at $34 a day and never expires.
Cat day-board
$28
per day · cat wing
A condo with a window and a midday check. For contractors in the house, or a long vet day.
Second dog from the same house
Half price on any daycare day or pack. Two dogs from one household is $57 a full day rather than $76.
How groups are made
Twelve dogs per handler, sorted by size and by play style.
Four yards means four groups at once. Dogs are assigned on their meet-and-greet and reassessed whenever something changes — a birthday, a limp, a bad morning. Nobody stays in a group they are not enjoying.
- ▲Orchard yard for dogs under 25 lb and for anyone who prefers a quiet game
- ▲Pasture for the big runners, with a shade barn and two water troughs
- ▲Sand yard for puppies and for old dogs who want a soft landing
- ▲Trail loop for the dogs who would honestly rather just go for a walk
- ▲Two enforced rest hours, 10am and 1pm, in an individual suite with water
Handlers are in the yard, not watching from a window. Every one of them is certified in canine first aid and CPR, renewed every two years.
The honest part
Daycare is not right for every dog.
Some dogs find twelve other dogs exhausting rather than fun, and a few come home wired instead of tired. We will tell you within the first two days if we think yours is one of them, and we will suggest trail days or a solo yard instead.
We would rather lose the booking than sell you something your dog does not want.
Before the first day
- ▲Four months and older; spayed or neutered if over eight months
- ▲Rabies, DHPP and Bordetella current within twelve months
- ▲A free twenty-minute meet-and-greet, ideally on a weekday morning
- ▲A flat collar with a tag. We take slip leads and harnesses off in the yard
