Doggy Daycare, Boarding, and Grooming

Your dog’s safety, comfort, and enjoyment are our top priorities at Fast Friends Doggy Daycare and Boarding.

Safety

Fast Friends is staffed 24/7. Our overnight staff is fully trained in emergency procedures and makes multiple rounds each evening to check on our boarding guests. We have an excellent relationship with all the local veterinarians and after-hours services and can get your dog the care it needs if a crisis should happen.

We have a state-of-the-art sprinkler system, a filtered air-handling system, and an on-site generator capable of running the entire facility.

Comfort

All the kennels and indoor play yards have radiant heat flooring. In addition to keeping your dog warm and comfortable, it is easy to keep clean and disinfected. Each boarding kennel also includes a raised Kuranda bed with soft blankets for snuggling. Fresh water is available at all times, and staff visits with each boarding dog every few hours – letting them out if needed or giving treats and belly rubs.

Enjoyment

During playtime, dogs are divided up into five supervised groups, based on their temperaments and play style. Most dogs start in the Little Room with a group of dogs known to be gentle and tolerant. Each of the play rooms has an indoor half with radiant heat flooring and Kuranda beds for lounging and an outdoor yard with play structures. Abundant water is always available, and

The play groups take turns in the three big yards where they can run and play with abandon. All the play yards have sturdy palisade fencing.

We know you want to see how much fun your dog is having, so each day we take photos of the play groups and load them to our Facebook page!

Policies & Procedures

Your dog must be at least 12 weeks old and current on rabies, distemper and bordetella (kennel cough).
