Doggy day care

Doggie day care Doggy day care on Petmansions means that your dog spends the day at the dog sitter’s home while you are away. Depending on the agreement, either the owner or the sitter can see to the dog’s “commute” from home to the place of day care. Why doggy day care? 

Busy days – boring days: If you are working away from home all day and your dog stays behind, they may get bored or lonely. Some dogs – especially puppies or older dogs – may need to toilet during the day, but they can’t go if there is no one around to let them outside. This can be very stressful to the poor pooches. Doggy day care is an excellent solution for this problem. Dogs are social animals: Many dogs don’t do well on their own. Some even suffer from full-blown separation anxiety, making it hard or even impossible to leave them alone. In doggy day care, they have company all day. The day care sitter will keep them occupied with activities that your furry friend likes. 

How does doggy day care work?

• Free Meet & Greet: The first step is to search for a dog sitter who offers day care in your area who suits your needs and is available.

• Contact them and arrange a Meet & Greet so you can get to know each other and, if the dog sitter has a dog of their own, introduce the dogs to each other safely.

• Pay through Petmansions: If you all get along well, book and pay safely via our platform. 

Top dog day care tips: If the dog sitter picks your dog up and drops them off at home, be sure to give them a key to your house or apartment. Let them know where to find or remember to bring anything the dog will need during the day, e.g. collar or harness, leash, toys, blanket. Share with the pet sitter any cues your dog knows, as well as any information relevant for daily life with your dog. Make precise agreements about what your dog sitter will should and should not do with your dog. Will the day care include a walk, some training? What activities does the dog like? If the dog sitter provides day care to more than one dog, make sure to introduce all dogs safely to each other. Know what Fido is up to: If you want to share in your dog’s adventures at his day care, the dog sitter can send you text or photo updates via the Petmansions website or app.
