and a trial daycare day!

Our new client on boarding process has been specifically designed and structured by experienced pet professionals for the best success possible for new pack members!

   1. ALL forms (PDF) are required to be filled out and submitted by your scheduled new client appointment.

All dogs must be neutered or spayed by 6 months of age. Cozy, comfy & just like home  we are a 100% socializing pet resort and have a zero tolerance policy for aggressive, destructive or disruptive behaviors. Our resort will not be a good fit for these more sensitive personalities. 

 

2. Dogs are up to date with required vaccinations (see below). Copies of vaccine records required. 

3. A deposit of $40.00 per dog is required to reserve your new client appointment. New client appointments are select days only booked in advanced.

4. The Trial day of daycare begins with your brief tour at 10:30am, pick-up time is at 4:30pm

  • First a complementary private tour where your dog(s) joins you to check out the resort .Go over ins/outs of 1st day. (15 minutes)

  • Next, Mom/Dad will leave & we begin the trial day of daycare  from 10:45am- 4:30pm. The trial day is focused on making sure we are a good fit for your dog’s care and to get them introduced into the pack at their own pace.

  • Pick-up will be at 4:30pm with a full update.

Once the trial day of daycare is complete and your dog has become a member of the pack, you can request services as often as needed. Certain personalities may need more trial days of daycare to establish a routine with us first prior to a first boarding for best success, please plan accordingly. We always have every dog's best interests in mind.
