Who is welcome to come to daycare?

All dogs who are up to date on their Bordetella (Kennel Cough) Vaccine, Rabies Vaccine, & DHLPP Vaccine are welcome to come play with us. We do not discriminate based on breed, size, age, or temperament. Puppies must have completed their 4 part series of vaccines & be up to date on their Rabies vaccine in order to come and play with us. We do reserve the right to refuse guests who we feel are a danger to themselves, other guests, and/or our staff.

Do I have to make an appointment for daycare?

Not at all! Because we are open 6 AM-6 PM, you can drop off your pet whenever is convenient for you. Since boarding guests get to play with DayCare friends too, regardless of what day of the week you bring your dog, they will have friends to play with.

What will my dog do?

Play! Because we do not temperament test, we have smaller play groups that cater to each dog's individual needs. We introduce your dog to another dog one at a time, this allows them to slowly get more acclimated to our employees and other dogs. This approach is much less overwhelming than a large group. If your dog prefers people over dogs, that's not a problem! They will receive extra one-on-one time with us to stilll stimulate their minds and supplement that dog-on-dog play.

Does your dog like to PAWTY?

Each month we host uniquely themed DayCare Parties! Each party includes a goodie bag, sometimes with treats and toys, sometimes with an art project. Pawties are just $11.99 additional / dog!

“Thank you Francis Kennels! You are a God-send to our family & have become Louie’s home away from home! He literally “vibrates” when we pull up each morning! We appreciate you all & will continue utilizing the daycare & kennel services. Thanks for being our family’s blessing!”
