Day Boarding

Hours: Up to 12 hours in one calendar day
Availability: 7 days a week
Shared Kennel Rate: $55/day for two dogs from the same household
Just need care for your dog during the day? We’ve got you covered! Day Boarding is a great option for dogs who don’t need overnight stays but still need a safe, supervised space while you're away.
During their visit, dogs follow the same schedule as our overnight boarding guests, including supervised outdoor time and socialization (based on compatibility). If appropriate, they’ll enjoy playtime with other dogs in a fully monitored group setting.
Please note: meals are not typically provided during Day Boarding unless requested (puppies are the usual exception). Let us know if your dog has special needs—we’re happy to accommodate!
To get started, fill out our Daycare and Day Boarding Application Form online.
At pick-up, we’ll give you a quick update on your dog’s day—and you’ll receive photos by email each evening so you can see the fun for yourself!

Is your dog in need of Mental Stimulation, Socialization and Physical Activity? Our program goes beyond traditional daycare to provide a balanced combination of Mental Stimulation and Physical Exercise. We offer a structured, safe, supervised, and enrichment-focused environment for up to 20 dogs.
Each dog is evaluated before joining to ensure the best group fit. Activities throughout the day include:
- Supervised playtime
- Basic training (sit, place/bed stay, object training, tricks, impulse control)
- Nap time
- Physical exercise in our outdoor play area as well as our large yard.
- Mental stimulation in our indoor enrichment space
Our climate controlled indoor facility provides a quiet space for rest and training, while our outdoor area allows for plenty of active play.
Ready to get started? Fill out our Daycare and Day Boarding Application Form online. We have a limited number of Structured Daycare spaces available. Depending on your dogs temperament we may suggest a certain day so that your dog fits in better with the group on that day. A meet and greet with the trainer is required prior to admission into the program, where availability can be discussed. Minimum commitment is one day/week. This is not a drop in program. Contact us for more information. And don’t forget to check out our Instagram for regular updates and photos of our Bark Barn dogs in action!
At pickup receive the details of your dog’s day plus tricks & tips that can be practised at home.
