Frequently asked questions

What should I bring for my dog's overnight stay?

You should bring your dog's regular food pre-bagged by meal to avoid dietary stress; if you don't bring food, there is a $7-per-meal charge for Wags-provided food. You may also bring washable bedding, blankets, and toys from home, but avoid raw hides and plush chew toys as they are choking hazards.

Can I tour the facility before booking?

Yes, tours are welcome during lobby hours: Monday–Friday 6am–6pm and Saturday 8am–4pm. Sunday hours (2pm–6pm) are for pickups and drop-offs only. No initial evaluation or meet-and-greet is required before scheduling services.

What happens if my dog gets sick or injured while at Wags?

You will be notified immediately if the problem is severe, or when you pick up your dog if it is minor. If veterinary care is needed, Wags will transport your dog to the closest vet, but you must call the vet to authorize treatment and will be responsible for all medical costs.
