Nope! Reservations are only required for boarding at this time. However, if you would like your dog groomed while they are with us, or decide to let them stay overnight, we recommend you call early to make sure we have space available!
Do I need to sign my dog in each day?

Definitely not! At BratPak, we strive hard to make your drop-off experience as convenient as possible. Once your dog is registered with us and we have your credit card on file, all you need to do is pull up and let your dog out. We’ll even meet you at your car! (To ensure accurate charges, please let us know if you only need a half-day at drop-off.)
What are the benefits of 'doggie daycare'?
Click here for details ▼
Many people have no idea how beneficial dog daycare can be for their dogs! The benefits are too numerous to mention, and most trainers even recommend occasional daycare to their clients. The biggest benefits are that it provides dogs with ample exercise, mental stimulation, and social interaction with their fun, furry friends. This keeps them happy and healthy, and even reduces potential problem behaviors like chewing, digging, barking, and jumping. Because the dogs at BratPak are “tested” and monitored by trained staff, your dog will literally learn basic doggie manners as he/she plays. A win for everyone!
Why shouldn’t I just use a dog walker or in-home sitter?

We're all for using dog walkers and in-home sitters for variety, but the difference between their services and BratPak are night and day! For starters, there is no better way to socialize and exercise your dog than BratPak. Off-leash play with other dogs is the best way to satisfy dogs physically and mentally. Another issue you should consider is the fact that many walkers/sitters are not “trained” in dog behavior. They may have "experience," but that doesn't equate to a good foundation in dog behavior. Unless they've had formal training in dog behavior and social interaction, they don’t have the tools necessary to respond quickly if there is an issue with another one of the dogs in their care. If they take your dog to the dog park, there is no guarantee what dogs they will encounter there. So, for basically the same price, and possibly cheaper, your dog can enjoy the full BratPak experience!
