Day Care
At The Doggie Den, we're committed to enhancing the quality of your relationship with your dog. Exhausted when you come home from work? And your dog wants to play, play, play? Then doggie daycare was invented for you! At The Doggie Den, we make sure your dog gets a practiced balance of exercise, socialization, relaxation and enthusiastic cuddles. Our Dog Care Assistants will supervise your pup at all times. To get more information about enrolling your dog, click here. Please click here to view our current service rates.

Our Facility
Our modern climate controlled facility includes a fenced-in outdoor area for potty breaks every hour (in the summer months we add a doggie pool), as well as separate indoor play areas for small and large dogs. The small dog area and the large dog area are separated by 4ft high walls as well as the play areas from the rest of the facility. The walls and all of the surfaces at The Doggie Den are impervious for easy disinfecting.

A Day in the Life…
We have a very laid back but, structured daycare at the doggie den! Drop off is from 7am-9am and at 9am we all go out for our first potty break (we take the dogs out every hour to help keep dogs and pups house trained and eliminate accidents in the daycare area). After the potty break it's TIME FOR PLAY! All the balls and toys come out and the FUN begins! Lunch time is about NOON (if your pup doesn't eat lunch, don't fret - he/she will just keep playing)! After lunch it's SNACK time - everyone gets a treat! Usually there's some napping and relaxing between 1pm and 2pm and then it's time to PLAY, PLAY, PLAY again! People start to come in and pick up their dogs and excitement sets in - every time the door opens they can't wait to see if it's their Mom or Dad coming to get them, so they can tell you all about the fun and exciting day they had at The Doggie Den!
