Why Choose Fluffy Paws for Boarding?
See how we go above and beyond for your dog's overnight stay
Open 365 Days
Never closed. Ever.
Why This Matters
Open 7 days a week, 365 days including all holidays. Whether it's Christmas, Thanksgiving, or any other holiday, we're here for your pup. Most facilities close 20-30 days per year, leaving you scrambling for backup care.
Holiday Pricing Only
Pay only for actual holidays
Why This Matters
2-week stay with a long weekend? You only pay holiday rate for those 2-4 actual holiday days, not all 14 days. Unlike Rover and other providers who charge premium rates for your entire booking if it includes any holiday, we charge fairly. Save hundreds of dollars on extended stays.
Behavior Training
Every day is a learning opportunity
Why This Matters
During boarding, our employees reinforce obedience all day - sit before meals, recall during play, leash manners on walks. We prevent sustained overexcitement, which can trigger stress and reactivity, by balancing play, rest, and learning. It's not formal classes - just steady reinforcement that shapes better behavior. Most places supervise; we educate.
Individual Walks
Real outdoor walks 3 times a day
Why This Matters
Many places skip real walks - using indoor turf "potty islands" that teach dogs to go inside, or paid walks that don't reinforce training. We provide one-on-one outdoor walks with staff who reinforce polite leash skills and proper elimination habits. Your dog gets real walks and real learning - not shortcuts that create problems at home.
Flexible Booking
Plans that adapt to your schedule
Why This Matters
Last-minute booking available (no walk-ins) with advance booking recommended for guaranteed spots as capacity is limited. 3-day cancellation notice required for boarding. Most facilities require rigid advance bookings with no flexibility.
Daily Updates
See their day, every day
Why This Matters
You'll receive photos and videos of your pup during their stay - every single day. See them playing, napping, or learning. Stay connected even when you're apart. Many facilities only send updates if you pay extra or on request.
Overnight staff on-site during boarding stays. Your dog is never alone. We monitor throughout the night for comfort and safety.
Years of hands-on experience with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Not just pet sitters - dedicated professionals.
Facility disinfected every single day for health and hygiene. Clean environment = healthy dogs.
Dogs grouped by play style, and energy level for maximum safety and fun. No bullying, no stress.
Custom meals based on your dog's dietary needs, allergies, and preferences. No cross-contamination.
We administer pills, ointments, and follow vet instructions. Your dog's medical needs are met.
Extended travel? Weeks to months stays welcome. We'll care for your pup like family.
Easy parking and quick access in Liberty Village. No traffic nightmares or circling for spots like busy downtown facilities.
Book, manage, and update reservations 24/7 online. Simple, convenient, always accessible.

|---|---|---|
| Holiday Rate Application | Only statutory holidays & long weekends (2-4 days max) | Entire stay if any day is a holiday |
| Standard Rate | Same rate for weekdays & weekends | Often charge more for weekends |
| Late Pickup | Until 9 PM ($10/hr after 7 PM) | Strict 5-7 PM cutoff or high fees |
| Example: 2-Week Stay w/ Long Weekend(14 nights total, 3 holiday nights) | Standard (11 nights): $935 Holiday (3 nights): $285 HST (13%): $159 Total: $1,379 | Base Rate (14 nights): $1,330 Rover Service Fee (11%): $146 HST (13%): $192 Total: $1,668 You save: $289+ |

Yes! Dog daycare is excellent for socialization and structured play. The key requirement is that your dog must be fully vaccinated (rabies required), with 2 weeks wait after final vaccinations. We don't separate by age - we group dogs by size, energy level, and temperament for maximum safety and compatibility. This ensures every dog, regardless of age, gets appropriate playmates and supervision.
