Frequently asked questions
What are the daycare rates at Happy Pawz Playground?
Full-day daycare costs $25, and half-day daycare (up to 4 hours) costs $15. Prepaid packages are also available, ranging from a 5-day pass at $120 to a 40-day pass at $750. All prepaid packages can be used for multiple dogs within the same family.
What do I need to bring for daycare?
You only need to bring your dog with a collar or harness and leash. If your pup needs to be fed during daycare, bring their food in a marked ziploc bag or plastic dish with a lid. Each dog has their own personal bin to keep track of belongings.
What are the vaccination and health requirements?
Dogs must be at least three months old and current on Rabies, Parvo, Distemper combo, and Bordetella vaccines. Female dogs cannot attend daycare during their heat cycle. All dogs must be flea and tick-free. You can schedule a meet and greet ahead of your dog's first visit to see how they interact with other dogs and staff.
