Why In-Home Boarding Is Better

Most pet parents hate the idea of leaving their dog in a loud, stressful kennel. That’s why we created a real-home experience where your pup can relax, play, and feel safe.

We provide personalized care with soft beds, backyard playtime, and daily photo updates. It’s perfect for dogs who are playful, chill, or just used to being treated like family.

Because they’re not just pets—they’re your babies. And we treat them that way.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I bring? (food,toys, blanket, medications, etc.)

Food: To help keep tummies happy and regular, be sure to bring their usual food and/or treats labeled with AM, Lunch, or PM and prepackaged per normal feeding amounts in individual zip-lock bags. Please do not bring Tupperware or large dog food bags as we do not have the storage to keep them. Exceptions are available for long-term lodging guests (10+ days).

Optional: If requested, we will provide our in-house premium food at extra charge which is a digestive-friendly premium quality food. However, we do believe it's in your best interest to keep your pup on their usual food.​

Treats: Our guests receive small training treats throughout the day for no additional charge, however, if you would like your dog to enjoy a special treat from home, we require you to bag the treats with feeding instructions (example. “Give 1 daily before bed’) *No treats that have a risk of harming your pet when they are unsupervised, such as bones or rawhides.

Collars/leads: Be sure to bring a leash, collar / harness! (Note, all damages done by your pet is not our responsibility)

Sleeping items (Blankets/Beds): Optional but suggested to bring your pets favorite blanket and bed. Our accommodations come with a premium comfort pad. (Note, all damages done by your pet is not our responsibility)

Toys: You are welcome to bring up to 3 toys but for safety reasons they must be made out of rubber or plastic (Kong Toys, rubber balls, etc) Do not bring something your pet can swallow. Rope toys and rawhides are strongly discouraged. Please make sure all belongings are in an enclosed bag. (Note, all damages done by your pet is not our responsibility)

Medication: If your pet is on any prescription medication, the medication must be in the original packaging from your veterinarian with prescription dosage instructions (We can only administer pills and edible prescriptions). We will not be able to administer medications outside of our normal business hours. (8AM-8PM) This service is included for all guests at no additional charge!

How much playtime & sleep time will my dog get?

We like to give our guests ample playtime and rest time. Dogs sleep anywhere from 12-14 hours a day and sometimes more depending on the age and breed so we insure that we do not overstimulate dogs during their stay with us. The only time we want your dog in a enclosure is when they are sleeping or eating!

Your Dogs Schedule:

7:00AM: Morning elimination break before morning room service begins!

8:00AM: Breakfast is served! (for those who eat in the morning)

9:00AM: Group playtime

11:00AM: Walks / Personal Time

3:00PM: After hours of group playtime we send our guests in to decompress!

4:30PM: Dinner service begins for all of our guests who eat in the afternoon!

6:30PM: One last elimination break and let out any leftover energy before being tucked in!

7:00PM: Bedtime begins at 7PM with calming white noise to prevent barking and ensure all of our guests get the 12 hours of sleep they need after a full day of action. Days may be formatted differently throughout the week due to weather or staffing, however we do guarantee the same amount of rest and play hours are honored.

Do you have different rates during holiday and peak seasons?

During peak seasons, popular events, and holidays, there is a $15/day price adjustment per pet to cover increased demand and operational costs. This ensures we maintain the highest standards of care and service for our guests.

What is your cancellation policy?

We require a 50% deposit to lock in your reservation. In addition to the deposit, there is a 3-Day cancellation policy. If you cancel within 3 days of your stay then you will forfeit your deposit.

We appreciate your understanding & respect for our facility and other guests on the waitlist.

My dog is not good with other dogs (or not fixed), can you still board them?

Yes, anti-social, and non fixed dogs can still come visit us. They must still be 100% people friendly as we will put them on a personal playtime schedule. We do a temperament screening before any dog joins our care. If your pup prefers solo time, we’ll accommodate that by keeping them separate and giving them their own cozy space and playtime. We just ask that you let us know ahead of time so we can ensure proper arrangements.

Please do not bring your dog if they are in heat or if they growl at people!

Will my dog be different after they come home?

After the excitement and exhaustion of playing and socializing all week, it is important to take the correct steps in making your dog adapt back to a normal schedule. While staying at Happy Pets, your dog received unlimited water both in the daycare and in their accommodation overnight. However, Still likely they might seem thirsty upon returning home. This is a common reaction to the excitement of being back at home with their family. Please withhold water from them for at least the first hour that they are home, once you see they have calmed down, you can then allow them access to their water bowl. Drinking too much water too quickly may lead to gastrointestinal discomfort, vomiting or bloat. We recommend waiting at least three hours from the time you arrive home to offer their next feeding. Excitement and stress from changing schedules again may also cause a change in urination or bowel movements outside their normal schedule. Give your pet some extra personal attention. While your pet stayed at Happy Pets, whether it is in the doggie daycare with other dogs, or with our staff members during their private playtime, they played hard. Even if your dog did not run all day, just being awake for longer hours than they are used to and thus may lead to your dog being more tired than usual when returning home. This should not impede their ability to eat or drink normally, and their laziness should go away within 2 to 3 days from returning home. While in Doggie Daycare most dogs love to play vigorously and wrestle with each other all day. During this play, it is NOT uncommon for some dogs to leave with minor cuts or scrapes. They love this type of play and we have trained first aid and CPR certified supervisors always monitoring the group. We absolutely do not allow aggressive dogs at Happy Pets but dogs do have teeth and nails and it just so happens dogs love to play with their paws and mouths. Although rare, occasionally some rough play may result in more moderate injuries. No amount of supervision or personalized care from our staff can be 100% certain to prevent a dog from being injured while playing.

How do you keep the dogs separated?

We use private rooms, gates, and modular dividers to create personalized zones for each dog when needed. This ensures safety and peace of mind—for you and your pup.

What do the dogs do all day?

They can enjoy our outside play areas and our climate-controlled inside areas to lounge, which are carefully supervised by members. Our trained staff members are certified in pet first aid and CPR. The majority of the day consists of making friends and getting belly rubs! Overnight boarding guests also get to enjoy daycare for no additional charge.

Can I see the inside of the home where my dog will be staying?

For safety and privacy reasons, we don’t offer in-person tours. Each dog stays in a private team member’s home, not a public facility. So we treat it with the same care and boundaries as any personal residence. However, you’ll receive daily updates, cute pics, and videos of your dog enjoying their stay—just like a mini vacation update so you can feel fully confident about where your pup will be staying.

Can I book now for a far future date?

Yes and you 100% should as soon as possible. You can absolutely reserve your dog’s stay months in advance, even for dates later in the year. It guarantees your spot and gives you peace of mind. For holidays and summer months we are always booked months in advance.

We recommend booking at least 2 weeks ahead for regular stays, and at least 6 weeks in advance for holidays or peak seasons. Spots fill up fast!

Payments and Booking

When can I pay? Payment is due once your booking is confirmed. We’ll send you an invoice or payment link to make it quick and easy.

What types of payment do you accept? We accept Zelle, cash, Venmo, and credit/debit cards.

Can I tip? Yes! If you and your pup had a great experience, tips are always appreciated. 100% of your tip goes directly to the Happy Pet Family Member who cared for your dog, it’s a meaningful way to say thank you for the love and attention they provided.

How do I book? Just fill out your info on the form above in this website and apply. Once submitted, you’ll receive a text from our team with the next steps to confirm your spot. Due to limited availability, early booking is highly recommended!
