Why is Dog Daycare the Best Play Option?

Today’s pet parents have more pet care options than ever, but a dedicated dog daycare offers benefits not found anywhere else. Here are just some reasons dog daycare is the most enriching and fulfilling play option for dogs of all ages.

Safe Socialization

Many dogs benefit significantly from social playtime with their own kind. Dog daycare is a purpose-built, professionally supervised place for dogs to safely play together with hand-selected playmates. With a pet sitter, your pup likely won’t get to socialize much, if at all. And other public dog parks brings a whole host of concerns like unvaccinated pups, unvetted temperaments, and an uncontrolled environment… while dog daycare is safe, supervised, and tons of fun.

Exercise Opportunities

Going for a walk around the block is nice, but it’s often not enough exercise to keep your dog in good physical shape. Dog daycare gives dogs hours of playtime with enriching toys, splash pools, playground equipment, and new friends. At Happy Tails, dogs have acres of room to run, spend their energy, and get all the exercise they need.

Protects Your Privacy

Dog sitting apps mean welcoming a stranger into your home, and we’ve all heard horror stories of stolen items, destroyed property, and mishandled pets. A dog daycare facility is fully accountable and separate from your personal life. Just drop off your dog—not your keys!
