FAQs
-
Payment for time at Ruff Love Dogs is taken when you pick up your dog. For the best deal, check out our package rates on pricing page!
-
Drop off your dog anytime after we open, but before 1pm EVERYDAY.
-
Feel free to bring a pre-measured lunch or dinner for your pup to be fed while they are at daycare. Be sure to write their name on the bag! If your dog doesn’t eat, the food will be returned to you when you pick them up.
-
We welcome young puppies (12 weeks and up) and we make sure to keep a close eye on them.
-
We ask that dogs are not brought to daycare until you have owned them for at least two weeks. This lowers the chance that they have an underlying illness or any undiscovered aggression. We recommend you socialize your dog with other dogs and people before bringing them to daycare to see how they interact with others.
-
We don’t put dogs in kennels during the day at Ruff Love Dogs. All of our pups are together at all times. If your pup is having trouble adjusting to daycare, we may suggest limiting their daycare hours.
-
We’ll greet you and your dog in the lobby and spend a few minutes getting to know your pup. Your pup will then be slowly introduced to a couple of other dogs at their own pace with one of our senior dog handlers. Once they’re comfortable with that, we’ll introduce them to a larger group of dogs in one of our dog runs! We’ll keep a close eye on them for the rest of their evaluation and let you know how it went, when you come back to pick them up.
-
Yes! We have a devoted space for our small dogs and calmer dogs.
