Our daycare day is structured to ensure your pup gets plenty of play, rest, and personalized care.

  1. By 9:00 a.m., our office closes for drop-offs and all dogs are settled in and ready for their day. Upon arrival, each dog is given access to their individual outdoor run, with fresh water and blankets provided (for those who don’t chew them).
  2. Once morning+ boarding activities are completed—typically between 9:30 a.m. and 10:00 a.m., depending on the number of overnight guests—our daycare dogs head outside for supervised play. They enjoy this time until around 11:15 a.m.
  3. Afterward, we clean their runs and begin quiet time. Dogs who are scheduled for lunch receive their meals, followed by a bathroom break. From 12:00 to 2:10 p.m., the lights are dimmed for nap time during our staff’s lunch break.
  4. At 2:15 p.m., we resume daycare activities with another round of fun and enrichment until about 3:45 p.m. After their final play session, the dogs come back inside to relax and prepare for pickup starting at 4:30 p.m., when our office reopens for the afternoon.

No, please wait until you receive a confirmation or pending status email from our staff. If you haven’t received an email about your request, it means it has not been processed and no kennel has been assigned yet. Please feel free to contact our team if you have any questions or need assistance!

Yes! Each dog will be assigned their specific room based on size and behavior. Each kennel is divided by an inside area and an outside area (Also individual to each dog).

Yes, even if you're still exploring our services and would like to visit the facility first, a customer account is required in order to schedule your tour and manage related details.

No, but we strongly recommend adding insurance to your reservation for added flexibility and peace of mind. If you choose not to purchase insurance, we advise finalizing your plans beforehand to avoid the need for cancellations or changes.

Absolutely. We proudly accommodate elderly dogs through our Special Care Package, thoughtfully designed for guests who require medication, gentler activities, or extra attention. We also offer the option to add a Kuranda orthopedic bed, ideal for joint support and enhanced comfort. Our team is committed to ensuring every senior guest enjoys a safe, soothing, and enriching stay.

Yes. Our team has experience caring for dogs with various disabilities, including blindness, deafness, and epilepsy. We ensure all medication is administered as directed and maintain open, attentive communication with pet parents throughout the stay. Every dog deserves exceptional care, and we’re committed to providing a safe, supportive environment tailored to each guest’s individual needs.

At Bed & Biscuit, we allow intact dogs to join Group Play up to 6 months of age for small breeds and up to 7 months for larger breeds. After this age, dogs must be spayed or neutered in order to continue participating in group activities. This policy helps us maintain a safe, balanced, and stress-free environment for all our guests.

Yes, our feline guests enjoy dedicated playtime and gentle interaction tailored to their individual personality and comfort level. Whether your cat prefers quiet cuddles or more active engagement, we ensure each guest receives attentive care during their stay.

Bringing your pet’s food is entirely up to you and what you believe is best for their routine and well-being. We are happy to accommodate special dietary needs and offer high-quality food options, including alternatives for pets with allergies

We offer 3 different kennel sizes based on breed, size, weight and behavior:

  • Medium kennel: 3ft x 4ft
  • Large Kennel: 4ft x 4ft
  • Extra Large Kennel: 5ft x 4ft

Each of these kennels also include an outside area that is 2x-3x times the size of the area inside.

Our daycare day is designed to balance play, rest, and care for every dog in a safe, enriching environment. While daily routines adjust slightly based on boarding volumes and weather, the following describes what a typical day looks like:

  • Arrival window: Daycare dogs arrive between 7:00 AM and 9:00 AM.
  • Morning play: We begin assembling daycare groups and taking dogs outside between 9:15 AM and 10:00 AM. Dogs are collected and brought back inside around 11:15 AM to 11:45 AM for water and rest.  We will flex our daily ending time later to make up for when daycare begins later, which naturally occurs in the flow of our year.
  • Midday break: After morning play, dogs enjoy lunch or treats and nap comfortably in their individual kennels to recharge for the afternoon. During this time, our staff also cleans and prepares all areas to ensure a fresh, comfortable environment.
  • Afternoon play: We start taking dogs out for afternoon play at 2:15 PM, with dogs collected and brought back inside between 3:45 PM and 4:15 PM.
  • Pick-up window: Dogs are ready to go home between 4:30 PM and 6:00 PM.

Throughout the day, dogs have access to our dedicated daycare building equipped with heating, air conditioning, and fresh water to ensure comfort in all seasons. In the summer months, we also offer pools during playtime to help dogs cool off.

Due to several factors that fluctuate day-to-day, the exact start and end times for outdoor sessions may vary. When that happens, we adjust by extending both morning and afternoon play as needed, ensuring dogs still receive a full, high-quality daycare experience with plenty of activity and care. We generally aim for more than 3.5+ hours or more of total supervised playtime per day, with a mix of group play, individual attention, and rest.

  • Dogs in daycare typically enjoy more than 3.5+ hours or more of supervised playtime each day, divided into a morning and afternoon session.

These times can vary slightly based on boarding volume, weather, and other factors, but we adjust to ensure dogs receive ample play, enrichment, and care each day.

  •  Our daycare groups are carefully structured based on the size of the dogs, their play style, and temperament. On average:
  • Small dog groups: Typically 5 to 15 dogs, all small in size, supervised by at least one staff member.
    • Large dog groups: Up to 20 large dogs, supervised by two staff members.

Group sizes and pairings are adjusted as needed to ensure safe, comfortable, and positive play.

  •  Yes. If your dog is already enrolled in recurring weekly daycare, you are eligible for special discounted pricing on additional daycare days. If it is a new day your dog has not attended before, we will first conduct a one-time evaluation to ensure a good fit for that group and day — this evaluation is also offered at the discounted rate.

Please contact us in advance to schedule, and we will confirm availability and apply the discounted pricing for both the evaluation and the additional day.

All new daycare clients begin with an evaluation day, which costs $45. This includes a full day of daycare and a personalized behavioral assessment to ensure your dog is a good fit for our program and to determine the most appropriate group placement.

At the end of the evaluation, we will publish a detailed report in your portal and send it directly to you for your review, so you can understand how your dog did and what we recommend moving forward.
