We get it — leaving your dog with someone new is a big deal. That’s why, at Big Daddy Doggie Daycare, we take a thoughtful, structured approach to care. As a family-owned, locally rooted business, we’re committed to providing a safe, consistent, and loving environment where every pup is treated like one of our own.
To give your dog the best possible start, we begin all new daycare clients with a five-day Welcome Week. This introduction period helps dogs settle in comfortably and build confidence in their new environment. (See more below about why consistency is key.)
After that first week, many of our families choose to attend two to three days per week to maintain routine and allow our staff to build strong, trusting relationships with each pup. We’re happy to work with you to find a schedule that supports both your dog’s needs and your family’s routine.
Every day includes:
Small, thoughtfully matched playgroups designed to promote positive, balanced social experiences
Spacious, climate-controlled pens (never kennels) with room to relax and recharge
Fresh water all day, cozy blankets, and elevated beds
Enrichment, outdoor walks, and plenty of scritches
24/7 on-site supervision with live camera access for complete peace of mind And the best part? It’s all included in our flat $40/day rate — no hidden fees, no surprise add-ons.
We know choosing the right daycare is a big decision — and we’re honored you’re considering us. That’s why every new daycare dog at Big Daddy Doggie Daycare begins with a 5-day Welcome Week: a structured, supportive introduction designed to help your pup settle in, build trust, and thrive in our care.
Welcome Week gives your dog the time and consistency they need to feel confident and comfortable in their new environment.
During Welcome Week, your dog will:
Get to know our staff and routines
Be gradually introduced to playgroups based on their personality
Enjoy supervised play, on-leash walk evaluations, and plenty of cuddles
Relax in spacious, climate-controlled pens
You’ll have 24/7 access to our live camera system so you can check in on your pup anytime, from anywhere — because peace of mind matters.
For a limited time, we’re offering Welcome Week for just $175 — the same level of premium care, at a special rate for new clients.
If you have questions about how Welcome Week works with your schedule, we’re always happy to talk it through.
For the safety and harmony of our playgroups, we require all daycare attendees to:
Be at least 6 months old*
Be spayed or neutered by 8 months of age
Be up to date on all core vaccines and in good health
*We currently do not accept puppies under 6 months, as we do not have a certified trainer on staff. We hope to expand our puppy offerings in the future!
Let’s give your pup the happiest start possible!
At Big Daddy Doggie Daycare, our goal is to create a safe, happy, and enriching environment where every dog can truly thrive. To support this, we’ve built our attendance approach around consistency — because routine helps dogs feel confident, secure, and socially engaged.
When a new dog joins our daycare, they begin with five consecutive days of attendance. This introductory period plays an important role in setting them up for success:
Establishing Routine: Dogs thrive on predictability. These first few days help them become familiar with our daily schedule, staff, and environment, reducing anxiety and building trust.
Building Comfort and Confidence: Regular exposure to our facility and caregivers helps your dog feel more at ease, making future visits enjoyable and stress-free.
Socialization and Assessment: During this time, our trained staff carefully observe your dog’s behavior and interactions. This allows us to thoughtfully determine the best playgroups and companions, ensuring a safe and positive experience for everyone.
After the initial introduction, many families choose a regular weekly schedule to help maintain routine and social confidence. Dogs who attend consistently often experience:
Maintains Social Skills: Frequent interaction with other dogs helps reinforce positive behaviors and supports healthy group dynamics.
Improved Physical and Mental Well-Being: Regular play and enrichment keep your dog active, stimulated, and happy.
Lasting Relationships: Consistent visits allow your dog to build meaningful bonds with our staff and fellow pups, creating a sense of familiarity and belonging.
If you’re unsure what schedule is best for your dog, we’re always happy to help you decide based on their personality and comfort level.
