Good to know
Quick drop-off and pick-up runs through the back on Dillon Court: look for the orange door and banner, call, and they bring your dog out to you. Payment is taken at your car on a mobile system, and Venmo (@thedoggiespaw) is accepted.
Family-owned, founded out of the owner's animal rescue and fostering work. California does not require certification for grooming or training, but they are state-certified. Grooming includes the essential care services at no extra cost; specialty cuts and treatments are priced separately.
Daycare is exclusively for small to medium dogs who pass a behavior assessment. Dogs must be current on Rabies, Bordetella, Distemper, Parvo and Canine Influenza vaccines, wait at least 24 hours after vaccination before attending, and dogs over 6 months must be spayed or neutered. Staff are certified in pet first aid and CPR, and multiple-dog discounts apply to half and full day rates.
Walk-ins accepted. Free parking. Accepts American Express, cash, debit, Discover, Visa and MasterCard.
