The house rules
These keep every dog safe and healthy. Thanks for reading them.
Vaccinations
Every dog must have these current through the last day of their visit:
- Rabies
- Distemper-Parvo (DHPP)
- Bordetella
Upload records in your account or have your vet email them to us. We verify every record before your first stay.
Health
Dogs should be free of fleas, ticks, coughing, and contagious illness. If your dog shows signs of illness while with us, we'll call you and your vet.
Reservations & deposits
A booking is a request until we confirm it. Where a deposit applies, it holds your reservation and is credited to your bill.
Cancellations
Please give us at least 48 hours' notice for boarding and 24 hours for grooming. Holiday reservations may have a longer cancellation window.
Drop-off & pickup
We're open MondayâSaturday, 6:30 am â 6:00 pm. We close at 6, so please pick up by 5:45 pm. On Sundays and holidays, daycare and grooming are closed; boarding check-in and check-out are by appointment only, at 10 am or 4 pm. Dogs can't be picked up outside those times.
Temperament assessment
Every new daycare and boarding guest starts with a Temperament Assessment: a full daycare day at the regular daycare rate. Please drop off by 10:00 am and pick up no earlier than 3:00 pm (you can still drop off as early as 6:30 or pick up at closing). It's needed again if it has been more than six months since your dog's last visit.
Spay and neuter
For daycare and boarding, dogs must be spayed or neutered before 8 months of age.
Breeds and behavior
Our insurance doesn't allow bully breeds in boarding or daycare; they're welcome for grooming and training. Dogs with a history of biting or aggression can't join daycare or boarding.
Holidays
Boarding stays over Thanksgiving and Christmas have a 3-night minimum. A holiday fee of $35.00 per dog applies to each 24-hour period that starts on a holiday (New Yearâs Day, Easter, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Yearâs Eve). The grooming salon is closed on New Yearâs Day, Easter, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas Day.
Food
Please bring your dog's own food, pre-portioned. If we have to supply food, it's $3 per day per dog.
