About Daycare

A Bored Dog is a Mischievous Dog...


What does your dog do all day? Chew your sofa? Chew your tennis shoes? Romp through your laundry? Lay around bored and lonely waiting for you to return home?

Enter THE BARKER LOUNGE®... where your dog will have the opportunity to expend all of his/her energy via natural and healthy outlets.

All daycare dogs will participate in supervised daycare all day long. There is ample opportunity for wrestling, swimming, fetching, running, napping, meeting new friends, and catching up with old ones. Older dogs who aren't entertained by the "young-uns" antics, will have their own space to relax and enjoy the day at their own pace, with plenty of TLC from their human companions. All dogs are grouped only with friends of similar size and temperament.¬ We have plenty of space for dogs of all sizes, shapes, and breeds.¬ See our "Why TBL" section to learn more about who your dog will play with and how s/he will be grouped.

All of our guests have the opportunity to take naps to re-energize, have a mid-day snack in a private suite, or just play play play straight through the day. Whatever it is that your pooch needs, he/she will be nothing short of socialized, exercised, and extremely tired at the day's end!
