Our daycare play groups provide a safe and supervised environment for dogs to play, socialize, and receive care during the day while their owners are at work or otherwise occupied. Waunakee has trained staff members who oversee the dogs and provide them with exercise, attention, and social interaction.
Benefits of Daycare Play for Dogs
Sending your pet to dog daycare can be beneficial for several reasons:
Socialization
Dogs are social animals, and they need to interact with other dogs and people to develop good social skills. At daycare, your pet will have the opportunity to play and socialize with other dogs, which can help reduce their anxiety and aggression around other dogs.
Exercise
Dogs need plenty of exercise to stay healthy and happy. At daycare, your dog will have access to a safe and enclosed play area, as well as plenty of toys and activities to keep them active.
Stimulation
Boredom can be a problem for dogs that are left alone for long periods of time. At daycare, your pet will have plenty of stimulation from other dogs, toys, and activities, which can help prevent destructive behaviors like chewing or digging.
Companionship
Dogs are social animals, and they can experience separation anxiety when left alone for long periods. In dog daycare, your pet will have the company of other dogs and staff members, which can help reduce their stress and anxiety.
Overall, daycare can be a great way to provide your pet with exercise, socialization, and care while you’re away. It can also help prevent behavior problems and improve your pet’s overall well-being.

Boarding
For our canine visitors, our Boarding Center offers over 50 indoor runs. We have two daycare yards in which your pet can play with our daycare pups if desired!* We offer a minimum of 5 walks/outdoor playtime per day, with extra a la carte services such as extra walks/playtime. We also offer a complimentary bath on stays longer than 5 days.
We know that most cats do not like socializing with dogs, so we have quiet cat rooms separate from the dog boarding area. Each cat has its own individual area and bed.
