How can I pay for dog daycare and dog boarding?
We accept cash, e-transfer and all major credit and debit cards. Both doggy day care and dog boarding rates need to be paid in full when droping off your dog.
What is the difference between pet boarding and pet sitting?
First, our boarding kennel is carefully designed to host dogs, cats and other pets. You can be sure, there is nothing in your pet's kennel that he should not touch, chew or pee on. In addition, it ensures that your pet can spend as much time outside as it wants. Finally, our boarding kennel is secure even for the most creative escape artists. Second, our staff is trained to handle all kinds of pets and any kind of situation such as emergency vet visits. You can rely on our experience to keep your pet healthy, safe and happy.
Our play pen is a safe and secured area to have some fun! We take small groups of dogs that get along well to play under supervision at all times. We can also spoil your pet with a professional massage. Please let us know when you book if you are interested in any of the above mentioned activities. Doggy day care clients will also be part of these activities, depending on their time of arrival and departure.
How much exercise will my dog get while boarding?
What do I need to bring when I board my dog with you?
You can also bring your pet's favorite blanket or something that smells like you. You do not need to bring water and food dishes. As mentioned before, we can provide food for your pet, but we recommend that you bring your own to avoid stomach aches.
