Stay & Play: In-Home Dog Boarding

When you’re away, give your pup a stay that feels just like home! Our in-home boarding is designed to be as comforting as leaving your dog with an experienced, dog-loving family member.

Boarding guests enjoy full access to our fun daycare activities during the day (romping, sniffing, and playing with friends) then settle into their own cozy kennel at bedtime.

For everyone’s wellbeing, all boarding dogs must be kennel trained, and kennels are also used during mealtimes to ensure a calm, safe environment.

What to Pack for Your Pup’s Boarding Stay

To make your dog’s stay as comfortable (and organized!) as possible, please bring:

Food & Treats
Pack enough of your pup’s regular food for their entire stay, along with any treats you’d like them to enjoy. To keep meals simple, we recommend:
- Pre-portioning each feeding into individual zip-top bags or
- Packing food in a small container with a scoop and clear instructions on how much to feed.
  We don’t recommend bringing a large, heavy bag unless your dog is staying for an extended visit.
Leash & Collar
Please bring a secure leash and collar with current ID tags (or be sure your pup is microchipped).
Medications & Supplements
Include any oral or injectable medications or supplements your dog needs, along with clear instructions.
Comfort Item
A familiar scent can help your dog relax at bedtime! Bring a blanket, toy, or T-shirt from home — just make sure it’s something you don’t mind getting a little dirty, since pups often come in from playtime with muddy paws or damp fur.
