Leaving your pet behind when you travel can be stressful—not just for your dog, but for you, too. At The Wagging Club, we understand that feeling. That’s why we’ve built a different kind of pet boarding experience: one focused on love, fun, and personalized care—where your dog becomes part of our family.

From luxury suites and splash pads to enrichment daycare and customized attention based on your pet’s age, personality, and preferences, The Wagging Club is designed to keep your dog happy, safe, and excited to return.

Here’s what your dog’s “staycation” with us really looks like—and why choosing the right boarding facility matters for your pet’s physical and emotional health.

A Personalized Approach to Every Guest

At The Wagging Club, we believe pets are family.

No two pets are alike—some love the excitement of group play, while others prefer quiet snuggles and solo strolls. That’s why we tailor each pet’s experience based on their unique personality, age, and needs.

  • Puppies and Young Dogs: Need extra playtime, structured activities, and a watchful eye. We incorporate enrichment daycare with puzzles, sensory games, and socialization opportunities that help develop confident, well-rounded companions.
  • Seniors: Older pets receive the tender care they deserve, with gentle exercise, orthopedic beds, scheduled rest breaks, and close monitoring to ensure they feel safe and comfortable.
  • Shy or Selective Dogs: Not every dog loves the pack, and that’s okay. For dogs who prefer people to pups, we offer private daycare and private boarding with one-on-one play sessions, private walks, and personalized attention.

Our mission is simple: to provide a safe, positive, and fun experience that feels like a second home.

Safe, Structured, and Supervised Play

Safety is our top priority, and we maintain strict standards for group play:

  • Temperament Testing: Before joining group daycare or boarding, every dog must complete a full-day Temperament Test to assess play style, social comfort, and energy level. Reservations are required for evaluations, available Monday through Saturday.
  • Behavior Monitoring: Our trained team supervises all playgroups to ensure safe, positive interactions. Dogs are grouped by size, play style, and energy level to minimize stress and maximize fun.
  • Private Play Options: For dogs who do not enjoy group play, our private daycare ensures an enriching experience tailored to their needs.

Throughout each stay, we continuously observe behavior and adjust activities to best meet every dog’s individual needs.

Health, Safety, and Cleanliness Standards

At The Wagging Club, we maintain the highest health and safety standards:

  • Proof of Current Vaccinations is mandatory for every guest to protect against common infectious diseases like Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease Complex (Kennel Cough). Learn more about vaccinations from AVMA.
  • Departure Bath:
    Dogs staying more than two nights receive a complimentary departure bath (discounts apply for extended stays and siblings). We also clip nails for safety—required for group play—or offer nail trims for just $12.

  • Clean Facilities:
    Our facility features Aerapy air purifiers that use ultraviolet disinfection technology to kill airborne pathogens, as well as a Cleanwise central vac system that keeps all floors disinfected and debris-free throughout the day.
  • Experienced Staff:

All staff are trained through Pet Guru College and certified in pet CPR and First Aid.

We have implemented strict procedures and protocols to ensure that every animal—and every person—at The Wagging Club remains healthy, safe, and happy.

Resort-Style Amenities: Comfort, Fun, and Care

The Wagging Club is not your average boarding facility—it’s a true pet resort designed for enrichment and enjoyment:

  • Luxury Suites featuring TVs, daily pictures, cuddle time, private walks, and comfy beds
  • Classic Suites offering full daycare access and private play
  • Indoor Pool and Splash Pad for water-loving pups
  • Multiple Indoor and Outdoor Play Yards grouped by size and temperament
  • Aerapy Air Purifiers and Cleanwise Vacuum Systems to maintain cleanliness and eliminate pathogens
