Upon admission, all dogs must be free from any conditions which could potentially jeopardize other guests.

Owners will certify their dogs have not harmed or shown any aggressive or threatening behavior towards any person or any other dog(s).

In the event your pet injures another dog at day care, the owner is responsible for veterinary fees and/or services.

Specialized Day Care: Daycare is designed primarily for dogs that enjoy and are friendly with other dogs. We have limited space available for "specialized daycare". These may be dogs that do not play well with large groups of other dogs. Specialized daycare dogs receive three periods of one-on-one playtime with staff members during the day. This provided for their safety, as well as the safety of the other dogs.
Days & Hours: Monday through Friday from 7:30am to 6pm and Saturday 9am to 4pm. The spa is not an overnight facility. Staff goes off duty at 6pm and there is a $1 per minute charge for any pet left after 6pm.
