Arrival and Departure (Overnight Stays)
Arrival: Clients must be checked in no later than 2:00 pm. You may arrival as early as 7:00 am but no later than 2:00 pm

Arrival and Departure (Daycare)
Arrival: Clients may drop off anytime after 7:00 am until 1:00 pm. We do ask that all daycare dogs arrive before 1:00. The reason is because most of the dogs come in early, and if your pup arrives after 1:00 pm there may not be as many energetic pups to play with.
Departure: Our daycare hours are from 7:00 am – 7:00 pm. You may pick up after 7:00 pm but it is an additional charge.

Food
We recommend bringing the same food your dog eats at home. If you add special treats or if your pup likes the food served warm with a little of this or that….just let us know! We want your pup to feel happy and full.
If you forget your food… no problem! Our house food is Science Diet. It’s a chicken based food. We also have a large variety of treats, chicken breast and cheese.
Please let’s us know of any allergies your dog may have.
Medication
We are very experienced at giving all forms of medication. We just ask for a detailed schedule in writing. Including how many times a day, amount, and the name of the medication.
Please let us know how you give your dog the medication at home and if we need to do anything special with the last resort being to open mouth and insert pill.
No worries! We’ve done it all.
