A professional approach Dog Boarding and Dog Daycare in Port Moody

Located in Port Coquitlam and serving Port Moody dogs

The care programs used at Good Dog Ranch & Spas Port Moody boarding services and dog day care are designed and overseen by Certified Professional Dog Boarders with an extensive and diverse education in dog behaviour, health and safety.

We will reinforce good manners and obedience while you are away - whether just for the day, or for long-term dog boarding and everything in between! Your dog will be provided with mentally and physically stimulating exercises to keep their mind and body occupied to prevent the anxiety of being separated from their normal routines.

Based on your dog’s social skills, they will enjoy daily social play time in tightly controlled playgroups or independent exercise with one of our amazing caregivers in order to burn off their energy! The day is followed by bonding time with our team including massage, general grooming, and mentally enriching (and fun!) activities to help keep them well-adjusted and satisfied throughout the day. We provide custom dog daycare services in Port Moody, BC and will cater to every one of your dog’s needs (and your requests!).

Our main dog boarding building was destroyed in the big storm at the end of August 2015 here in British Columbia by a 200 foot tree that fell on it. We are grateful to report that nobody (dog or human) was hurt. Because of the loss of this building, we are taking much fewer boarding dogs (overnight care) so please don’t delay in getting your requests in!

We will be re-building a bigger and better dog daycare for our services in 2018. For now, we are teaching the dogs in our “house” building, and in order for your dog to be comfortable in these quarters they must be relaxed sleeping in a crate. 

A few Dog Daycare facility highlights:

  • Over an acre and a half of land for your dog to explore and enjoy

  • Our buildings are air-conditioned - heated in the winter and cooled in the summer

  • Orthopaedic Kuranda beds to keep your dog comfortable when they need a nap!

  • “Through a Dog’s Ear” calming music to sooth your dog to sleep when they are inside for nap or sleep overnight

  • Vet recommended lavender essential oil diffuser to help relax the fur kids

  • Full grooming salon - book your dog’s regular groom with Good Dog Port Moody and/or add our services to have your furry one come home looking, smelling, and more obedient than ever

Enriching, Fun and Safe Environment

Is your dog bored at home while you are at work or you need more spare time during the day?

At Good Dog Ranch & Spa Port Moody, your dog will be taken care of by Certified Professional Dog Boarders who will manage the pack to ensure appropriate behaviour is maintained at all times.

We are a day care unlike any other in that we offer an enrichment style, dog boarding-based dog day care with a membership program. You choose the day(s) that you would like your dog to attend each week and secure a spot for your dog to participate in our program. We charge for the appropriate number of days on the first of the month and your dog comes to enjoy the fantastic daily schedule we provide here at the Ranch.

We accept far fewer day care dogs than any other daycare in order to maintain a more intimate relationship with each dog and client and control the enrichment-day experience. The structure for the dogs during the day is deliberately set up to optimize exercise AND learning, leading to happy, well-balanced dogs at the end of the day.

Your daycare membership also comes with some amazing perks including quarterly “parent-teacher” conferences, monthly report cards on how your dog is doing at our dog daycare and discounts on other Good Dog boarding services based on your membership level.

A Daycare Member’s Day in the Life at Good Dog Port Moody

We follow a consistent daily schedule to ensure each and every dog in our care receives the perfect amount of physical and mental stimulation daily with a mixture of group play, one-on-one attention and quiet time at our dog day care. 

The regular schedule allows your dog to have a routine, which helps create a relaxed and stable environment to set your dog up for success with our dog boarding strategies. 

Daily Daycare Members’s Schedule

7:00am - 8:00am - Good Morning! 

Dogs start to arrive and relax inside our dog daycare until we are ready to start the daily activities.

8:00am - 11:00am - Let’s PLAY! 

Play time is customized for each individual dog and will include a combine physical and mental stimulation including: select small playgroups, group leashed walks, individual leash walks, ball throws, field runs, fitness, time with interactive toys and games/activities. 

11:00am - 12:00pm - Health & Wellness.

Each dog will receive individual time with our staff where they will receive a massage, wellness check and maintenance brushing - this helps to settle the kids after playtime and provides a unique opportunity to bond with our caregivers, helping them feel like they truly are at their “home away from home”. 

12:00pm - 1:00pm - Afternoon nap. 

The dogs need a structured break from all the fun in order to prevent over-stimulation, which can very easily lead to stress. Each dog will come inside to their individual sleeping areas for an afternoon nap. You may choose to bring a chew or favourite toy for them to have during their nap time. If your dog gets fed lunch we will feed it during this time.

1:00pm - 5:00pm - Second play time of the day! (Same customized dog boarding play schedule as above.)

5:00pm - 7:00pm - Quiet time and dinners. 

All the dogs in the daycare are cleaned up if they got dirty from playing during the day and then settle down for some quiet time before their parents pick them up. If you provide dinner it will be fed during this time.
