‼️❤️ ATTENTION ALL EXISTING AND POTENTIAL CLIENTS! ❤️ Please read the following for changes in 2025! Once you have read this, please either message me or comment below that you agree to the new changes. You must do this before I can accept any new bookings. Stay tuned for hopefully a new completely online introduction form where I will send you the new form for you to have with all the changes that are below!‼️
⏰New hours for drop-offs, pick-up, & daycare:⏰
•Monday-Friday
—7:00am-5:30pm
•Saturday
—8:00am - 11:00am & 5:00pm - 6:00pm
•Sunday
—CLOSED
If available, we will accept out of hours drop-offs & pick-ups at 9:00am-10:00am & 2:00pm-3:00pm for an additional outside of hours fee of $25. Please remember if you choose our 2:00pm-3:00pm option for pickup that the daycare fee also still applies.
⏰All drop-off and pick-ups are by APPOINTMENT ONLY to ensure a smooth schedule & happy dogs⏰
Please arrive no earlier or later than 5 minutes before or after your scheduled pick up time. (This gives us ample time to get the dogs already in our care safely put up while we assist you.)
In some cases, if you are more than 15 minutes late for your appointment, you may have to wait for the next available time as we also have other dogs in our care and business outside of the home to attend to!
😬🐾Separation Anxiety & new requirements for boarding/daycare clients🐾😬
We will no longer be able to accommodate any dogs with separation anxiety. Because we often have business outside of the home as well, this is not the best setting for your pup if they are known to have anxiety when left alone!
When I am away at a drop-in visit and do not have the help of my husband, I make sure all dogs are put away from each other for their safety! I have crates of all sizes and a bed room dedicated to dogs who are not crated for when I am not at home. I know most dogs that come here are crated at home and that is great! For the dogs who are not crated at home, please know that I am now only accepting one dog at a time who is not good with crates! (If your dogs are from the same household and good left out together, this requirement does not apply) This is so I am able to still safely separate your dogs while I am doing a drop-in outside of the home! Your dogs will not be left alone for long periods of time as this is my full time job and I am home 95% of the time! For the dogs who are not crated, they must be completely house trained, not destructive, and do not show signs of separation anxiety (scratching at doors, etc.)!
🏡🐶 Trial days for new clients are now required before any booking can be accepted! 🐶🏡
With my experience I have learned AT LEAST one trial day is a must!!! Depending on how the first trial day of daycare goes will determine if this is a good fit for your pup and/or if they need more than one trial day! We have had many owners book at least two trial days before a longer stay and compared to the pups who have not had a trial day, they seemed overall more comfortable and at home here!
If after the first trial day of daycare it seems your dog is not a good fit and you do not wish to continue to book more trial days, we will refund the first trial day only.
Please remember every dog is different and sometimes they are just more comfortable in their own home. In these cases, we will offer our in home drop-in and walking services to you!
**If your pup has never been to The Dog Dasher before, we recommend you have everything needed to book completed at least two weeks before your needed booking (including your trial day of daycare.) This gives us enough time to have your trial day completed to see if this is a good fit for your dog. In the unlikely chance that this is not a good fit, you will have extra time to find another accommodation for your beloved furry family member and we may offer our in home drop-in services instead.**
❤️Any and all rules that our set in place will ALWAYS be because we want to treat your fur baby how we would treat our own!!! We would want to make sure our babies are staying somewhere that cares if they are stress-free and can 100% say all dogs are vaccinated, dog friendly, and safely secured when they are alone, so that is why we have the requirements that we do in place!
We strive to be completely transparent with all of our policies and procedures here! Thank you all so much for understanding and taking the time to read this far!
If you have any questions or would like to book any dates, please let us know!! Our bookings for 2025 are open! If you already have your dates for vacation planned please feel free to go ahead and book ahead! We tend to book up in advance! We cannot wait to care for your pets this year!!! Let’s make it a great one! 🥰🐾❤️
