Daycare for Small Dogs

A small-dog setting for play, rest, and attentive care while you’re away in Des Moines.


Full-Day Daycare

Give your dog a place to spend the day while you handle work, errands, or appointments. Full-day daycare combines supervised play with time to rest, so small dogs can enjoy company without being expected to stay active all day. Share your dog’s routine and needs before their visit to help the team plan a comfortable day.


Half-Day Daycare

Half-day daycare offers a shorter option when your schedule calls for a few hours of care. Your dog can meet other small dogs, enjoy supervised activity, and take breaks in a setting suited to their size. It can also help you see how daycare fits your dog’s temperament and routine before planning a longer visit.


Daycare Introduction

A first daycare visit can feel like a big change, especially for a dog who has not spent time in group care. An introduction gives your dog a chance to explore the environment and meet the people and dogs there at a manageable pace. Share any questions, sensitivities, or routines so the team can make the visit more comfortable.


Small-Dog Social Play

Social play gives small dogs an opportunity to interact with other dogs in a supervised setting. The team can observe how your dog responds and support comfortable interactions, with room for breaks when needed. Tell staff about your dog’s play style and preferences so they can better understand what kinds of social experiences may suit them.
