Daycare FAQs
Find answers to your questions about our services, policies, and everything Sweet Paws Retreat.
What is dog daycare?

A safe, supervised environment where dogs can socialize, play, and engage in structured activities that support their mental stimulation, reduce stress and anxiety, and promote overall well-being. Regular social interaction and play have been shown to improve behavior, boost confidence, and help dogs feel more balanced and content.

What is the difference between full and half-day daycare?

Half-day daycare is less than 6 hours of daycare. We recommend you drop your dog off prior to the start of the daycare session so that your dog can enjoy the full daycare experience. Our AM session begins at 8am everyday and our PM session begins at 2pm on Monday through Friday and at 12pm on Saturday and Sunday.

What happens if I do not pick my dog up by the end of the day?

Your dog will be booked for a boarding night (if available) and additional charges will apply.

Will my older dog like dog daycare?

This will depend on your dog. We have several older dogs that love the interaction with other dogs. Part of the way we separate dogs into our various play areas is dependent upon activity level, meaning that a larger, older dog may be placed with other older, mellow dogs of his similar size. The temperament evaluation will also help us, and you, determine if our environment is right for your dog. Our daycare attendants are constantly evaluating each dog’s behavior, and if they view your dog as overwhelmed or tired, they will place your dog back in their room or in a calmer atmosphere. We also offer private daycare options, which can be a great fit for older dogs.

Do I need to make reservations?

Yes, reservations are required for all of our services to ensure we can provide the best care and attention for every dog.

Do you have daycare and boarding packages?

We offer a 10 visit package for both daycare and boarding. Additional fees may apply if your dog requires a large space.

Still have questions?

Give us a call and we’ll get you taken care of!
