Thankfully, you can get peace of mind by bringing your dog to one of Pet Palace’s doggy day care locations. Our pet experts will provide a structured, premium experience that keeps your dog engaged, happy, and healthy while you take some much-needed me time.

Playtime and Exercise: Keeping Your Pup Active

Socialization is vital for dogs, so having it as a cornerstone of pet day care should be part of any worthwhile boarding facility. At Pet Palace, dogs that stay with us get plenty of opportunities for playtime in safe, controlled environments.

Plus, we supply options for both group and one-on-one play sessions, letting dogs familiarize themselves with dogs of other breeds and sizes, enhancing their sociability. And not to worry – if any scuffles ever break out, our trained staff is on hand to diffuse the situation and keep the pups happy.

Playtime + Exercise + Outdoor Play = A Happy, Well-Balanced Pup

But playtime isn’t the only way your dog will be fulfilled at Pet Palace, because we make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise while they stay with us. Throughout the day, your pup will be taken outside for regular supervised potty breaks and outdoor play sessions, where they can have fun with toys, explore their space, and burn off excess energy!

Rest and Relaxation in Spacious Villas

Once your dog has had a fun-filled play or exercise session, they’ll need some time to recuperate. Decompression time is essential to ensure your dog doesn’t become overstimulated, so we offer premium villas while they stay with us.

These villas:

  • Include oversized accommodations, often double the size provided by other facilities
  • Have full air conditioning and heating systems to keep your pet comfortable no matter the time of year
  • Feature quality bedding materials so your pup can properly snuggle in
  • Allow blankets, pillows, and toys from home to give your dog something comforting with familiar scents
  • Have fresh drinking water and food to help your pet reenergize

Of course, all of our villas are also thoroughly cleaned and sanitized between uses, so when your dog stays with us, they’ll have a spotless space to call their own! Our pet experts also take great care to monitor pets during nap time to ensure they have everything they need before their next play session or bathroom break.

Personalized Attention, Feeding, and Owner Updates

At Pet Palace, we’re committed to giving your pet the royal treatment, and our staff of animal lovers has been trained to supply the best care possible. Some of the ways we stand out include via our:

1. Fixed timelines – We know how important it is for pets to stay on their feeding schedules, especially if they require specialized food. Our team ensures that feeding timelines are closely followed, and we’re also able to feed your pet special food if it’s given to us in premeasured amounts. The same goes for medication distribution, which we can handle if your pet has existing health issues.
2. High staff-to-pet ratio – When your pet stays with us, they won’t have to deal with a minimal team that’s stretched too thin. We have plenty of team members on hand to ensure pets get individual attention and proper oversight.
3. Pet cams and updates – We want pet owners to know their dog is in good hands, so our facility is equipped with pet cams that let them see how their pup is doing. We can also supply phone updates, and at the end of a dog’s stay we provide a detailed report card that lets owners know how their furry friend did!
4. Emergency preparation – No one knows your pet like their own vet, so when your dog stays with us we make sure to get veterinarian info in case an emergency occurs. That way, we can transport your pet to the best location for their care.

Optional Upgrades: Spa Treatments and Special Treats

Every dog has their day, but at Pet Palace we think they deserve as many as possible! When your pet stays with us, we can provide some great extras to give them a truly fantastic time. For additional fees, you can opt for:

Premium Treats Grooming and Spa
  • Chicken or steak meals
  • Kongs
  • Seasonal pup cups
  • Conditioning bath
  • Toenail polishing
  • Teeth brushing

Some of these options are offered as part of our dog grooming service, which provides various packages that will all get your pup looking their best. When you come to take your pet home, they can be clean, fresh, and ready for indoor play with the family!
