DOG DAYCARE
At the K-9 Wellness Center, our Dog Daycare program is designed to keep your dog active, social, and happy while you’re away for the day. Whether your pup loves to play with friends or just enjoys a little extra attention, our team provides a safe, structured environment where every dog can thrive.
Each day includes supervised playtime, rest breaks, and plenty of fresh air. Our staff gets to know each dog’s personality and needs, making sure playgroups stay fun and balanced. For dogs that prefer a slower pace, we offer calm spaces to relax and recharge between activities.
Whether you’re at work, running errands, or just want to give your dog a fun day out, our daycare is the perfect place for them to stay active, build confidence, and enjoy being part of the K-9 Wellness Center community.
