Safety is our Specialty
Our daycare program was designed to meet superior, veterinarian-approved safety standards. Here are some of the features and practices that keep our furry guests protected and healthy.
- Every canine guest begins their visit with a complementary behavioral evaluation to make sure they’re comfortable in this social environment.
- Individual playtimes are available for those not-so-social butterflies.
- Daycare groups are separated by size and play style, making sure all guests are comfortable and secure.
- All dogs are 100% supervised by our highly-trained staff, with a small dogs-to-staff ratio.
- All play areas are kept clean to veterinary-level standards.
- Our indoor play room is covered in padded flooring for healthy joints.
- Dogs enjoy wading pools and spray hoses to stay cool on hot days. Plus, our porch and many of our yards are shaded.
Benefits of Dog Daycare at Pet Resort in the Garden
Doggie daycare provides ideal physical and mental stimulation that can greatly improve your dog’s overall wellbeing.
Social play will keep your dog from growing bored. Boredom often leads to undesirable behaviors like excessive chewing and barking.
Daycare is a fully-supervised place for your pet to enjoy exercise, socialization and entertainment.
Socialization is key to a well-adjusted and confident dog. Our playgroups create a safe, interactive environment for dogs to build confidence and learn to better navigate the world around them.
Exercise is crucial to a dog’s physical health, including weight management and healthy joints.
For the health and safety of our canine guests and care team members, we require the following medical protocol:
- Rabies 1 or 3 yr
- DHPP 1 or 3 yr
- Bordetella within 1 yr
- Fecal exam to check for parasites within 1 yr
- Both strains of the Canine Influenza (H3N8 & H3N2) within 1 yr
- Puppies must be current on age appropriate booster vaccines. Puppies less than 16 weeks of age require approval by Farrell Animal Hospital veterinarians.
Vaccinations less than 6 months past due, may be updated upon arrival by our on-site veterinarians during a Pet Resort stay. Vaccinations which have never been administered previously or which are more than 6 months past due, require a 7 day waiting period before the pet is allowed into the facility.
Please also note the following health requirements:
- Pets showing signs of illness will not be allowed to enter the premises.
- Pets recently rescued from a shelter or foster may require a 3 week waiting period.
- Pets exhibiting aggression toward people or other pets may not be allowed, but will be assessed individually prior to scheduling.
