Standifer’s Daycare Guidelines

• We require all dogs to be up to date on their DAPP, Bordetella, Rabies, and fecal.
• You must text (205)598-6123 in order to schedule daycare. Texts must be received before 5 pm on the day before you plan on bringing in your pet. If you would like your dog to participate in swim time, please let us know when you schedule daycare. 
• Swim time will be an extra $5 per day
• Dogs will be able to get either a pup cup, a lick mat, or a doggie puzzle every day they come to daycare. If you would like your pet to have another enrichment treat, there will be an extra charge.
• We will be closed on certain days surrounding holidays. We will let you know the dates at least a week prior to closing.
• We bathe daycare dogs daily between 3-4:00 PM for $25. If you would like your dog to be bathed, your pick-up time will be after 4. This price only covers a bath. We do not guarantee that they will be completely dry.
• If there are any incidents with your dog, we will notify you with a phone call or inform you when you pick up, depending on the severity of the incident.
• Dogs that do better with solo play will still get the same amount of time in the yard as the rest of the dogs and will get to play with a staff member and toys instead.
• For the safety of our staff and pets, dogs will not play in the yard within 20 minutes of it thundering.

Why Board Your Pet at a Veterinary Practice?

• Medications are administered by trained veterinary staff.
• If there is an emergency or your pet needs immediate medical care, our veterinarians and medical team are onsite for a quick response.
• If your pet requires updated vaccinations before boarding, we can take care of those before your pet's scheduled boarding date. If possible, please allow two weeks between vaccination and boarding.
• We offer veterinary exams or other medical services needed during your pet’s stay.
