Forget what you think you know about pet boarding. The Wagging Club elevates the experience for dogs and cats and caters to their physical and mental needs, ensuring safety, comfort, and good health at every turn. Let us describe the [en]rich[ed] life enjoyed by our four-legged guests.

What is enrichment for pets?

Enrichment is a care strategy that allows pets to express natural species-appropriate behaviors to enjoy better well-being and reduced stress. Enrichment supports your pet’s physical, emotional, and social needs with a range of activities that engage their senses, promote instinctive behaviors, and reduce boredom and anxiety. Whether a playful romp with other dogs, playtime with their favorite caregiver, or relaxation in a quiet, cozy space, enrichment at The Wagging Club ensures your pet is happy and healthy while you’re away.

Enrichment during your pet’s stay 

Enrichment is a fundamental part of the care we provide our pet guests. Our unique programs have been tailored to meet each pet’s individual needs and preferences to ensure a positive, comfortable, and rewarding experience. Here’s a closer look at how we nurture your pet’s well-being at The Wagging Club.

  • One-on-one play sessions — Some pets prefer our undivided attention over the boisterous interactions of a formal playgroup. Our one-on-one sessions with our highly trained and fun-loving staff offer the personalized interactions they crave. Whether your pet’s favorite activity is a game of fetch, an investigatory walk, or comforting snuggles, our thoughtful caregivers will fulfill your pet’s every wish.
  • Cat-only boarding — No dogs allowed! Our exclusive cat boarding areas ensure our feline guests enjoy a peaceful and stress-free environment. In our dog-free spaces, cats can relax, express their natural behaviors, indulge their curiosities, and enjoy their stay without canine-related stressors (e.g., barking, odors, visual sightings).
  • Social hour (i.e., group playtimes) — Our group playtimes and games let dogs be dogs. Our social canine guests enjoy interacting with other friendly dogs for fun games of chase, tug, fetch, and more. Group activities are a fantastic way to burn off energy and boarding-related stress and express natural behaviors, such as running, jumping, digging, and splashing on our doggy splash pad. Better still is rolling on the artificial grass in our secure, fully enclosed, and shaded play yards. But, before you think we’ve gone to the dogs, don’t worry—we don’t allow any “ruff” play. Our trained and experienced staff monitor every group play session to ensure all activities are fair, safe, and fun, and all our guests are good boys and girls.
  • Feline-friendly playroom — When you’re away, your cat will play! Our dedicated cat playroom, a quiet, secure cat-only space that is specially designed for our feline friends will encourage your cat’s inner hunter. Equipped with climbing structures, scratching posts, and plenty of toys to pique your cat’s interest, it’s a feline-friendly paradise they’ll love to explore.
  • Luxury suites with television — Does your pet prefer a more human form of entertainment? Our private, luxury boarding suites include a television for your pet, so they can relax and enjoy their favorite programs. Whether nature documentaries or soothing music, the visual and auditory stimuli help keep your pet calm and entertained.

  • Private, sensory-friendly suites for shy or nervous pets — No matter how much we try, for many pets, there’s no place like home. Pets who feel this way and become fearful, anxious, or stressed during their stay can enjoy the peace and calm of our private suites. These suites are located in a quiet resort area where your pet is less likely to be upset by triggers such as barking dogs or frequent foot traffic.

At The Wagging Club, your pet’s health, happiness, and well-being are our top priorities. Our species-specific enrichment activities and specially designed spaces ensure every pet receives personalized attention, satisfying physical and mental exercise, and a comfortable and restful stay.
