Requirements for Daycare & Boarding

Pets must be up to date on the following shots:

Rabies, DHLPP (distemper/parvo combo), & Bordatella (kennel cough). NOTE: All vaccinations must have been given at least 7 days prior to your dog's first visit.

Due to the sensitivity of puppies under 16-weeks-old, our minimum age for daycare and boarding is 4 months (16wks). We also require all our dogs to be spayed or neutered prior to their first visit.

Temperament Test: Every dog attending our facility must be evaluated before being allowed to play. Our evaluations are 100% free and include a free day of daycare! We have 2 options for the temperament test:

1. Walk-in evaluation: Bring your dog to see us any time between 10:00am and 4:00pm Monday through Friday and we will conduct the test with the owner (you!) present. No Appointment necessary. Takes about 20-30 minutes.
2. Drop-off evaluation: We understand that it might be difficult to find spare time in the middle of a busy day. That being said, our drop-off option might be a better choice. You may drop your dog off with us with a scheduled appointment after 7:00am Monday through Friday and we will conduct the temperament test while you go about your busy day. If your pup passes, (s)he will be able to play in daycare all day. However, if your pup is not appropriate for daycare, (s)he will spend the day in one of our luxury suites. Your pup will be walked throughout the day by one of our highly trained staff members. The drop-off evaluation requires a confirmed appointment and we must receive your paperwork with copies of your dog's up-to-date vaccines at least 24 hours prior to your appointment time.
