The safety and well-being of all our furry guests comes first. Groups are sorted by size and energy, with our team in the group the whole time — not just watching a room, but genuinely with the dogs. Real downtime is built into the middle of the day, so nobody goes home overtired.
New dogs start with a friendly temperament evaluation to find their right group, and you get photo updates while they play. We celebrate all year with daycare parties — Valentine's, Halloween, Christmas, the Summer Beach Bash and more. Open Monday–Friday, 6am–10pm.
Open Monday–Friday, 6am–10pm. Every new pup starts with a friendly temperament evaluation, so we can match them to the right group from day one.
The evaluationEvery new dog starts with a temperament evaluation — as close to a full day as you're comfortable with. Evaluations are on Mondays and Wednesdays and are conducted by our trainers. We start slowly with one of our own personal dogs and let the dogs tell us how fast they want to go — some meet just a friend or two on day one, others jump right into the whole pack. Once the evaluation is complete, you can book daycare right through the app.
How oftenDaycare dogs come at most 3 days a week. As a facility owned by a professional dog trainer, we focus on your dog's overall well-being — group play more than 3 times a week can lead to overstimulation, trouble settling at home, and overarousal around other dogs. Once in a blue moon works too: plenty of our clients drop off on their way to St. Louis for a shopping day or a long appointment.
Off-leash adventuresDogs who've completed off-leash training with us can join our off-leash daycare adventures.
MorningDogs trickle in from early drop-off and the bus run, greet the same familiar faces, and settle into their group. First play session gets the wiggles out.
MiddayEveryone winds down for real rest — a built-in quiet stretch so the afternoon isn't just tired dogs bouncing off each other.
AfternoonBack to play, refreshed, with breaks as they need them. We keep an eye on who's had enough and give them space.
EveningLate pickup means daycare fits around your workday. They head home happily worn out — the good kind of tired.
