Dog Boarding
North Paw is the first team to offer safe and cozy overnight boarding for smaller dogs. We have open-room/crate-free spaces as well as homey bungalows. In addition to our extraordinary care team we have 24/7 video & temperature controls that we use to monitor the safety and comfort of your beloved pup. Staff is also available to spend the night with your pup.
Bigs (larger dogs) in the same Family
If your pet family includes a Big sibling, is dog-friendly and would like to stay with your Little while boarding, we have bungalows and open room space that accommodates this need. The Big will be taken for exercise walks and can run in the large play yard after daycare hours (daycare is
generally for Littles only).
Multiple Pet Discount
Dogs/cats from the same family who stay together in the same bungalow will receive 10% off their boarding rate. Dogs from the same family boarded in separate bungalows will be charged at the appropriate Individual Bungalow rate.
Requirements
Dogs in boarding will be exposed to the same environment as daycare dogs, therefore the requirements are the same as listed under Daycare.
Dogs new to boarding at North Paw must have at least 1 sleepover visit prior to a multi-day visit or first time weekend stay. This is to ensure your dog is comfortable in the environment. We require this during the week days (Monday through Thursday night) so that your Little can experience a full typical day of daycare.
Boarding Bungalows -- Crate Free & Daycare Included!
Private spaces for 1 or multiple dogs from the same family. Bungalows range by 5ft x 5ft areas to 7ft x 6ft areas. Dogs are assigned bungalow spaces based on what makes most sense for individual dogs' needs. All bungalows easily fit a bed, food & water dishes, space to move, and an optional pee pad tray with liner. If a bungalow is not a good fit for your dog we have additional space in open rooms.

Medication & Instructions
Chewing/Canine Enrichment Object. We highly recommend the Toppl. Please consider whether this or other objects are choking hazards for your dog. We also understand that it can be soothing to have something that smells like home. We allow 1 towel or small blanket and 1 toy, both of which must be labeled. We will do our best to return items in the same condition they arrived however we may not have time to launder the items. We cannot be responsible for lost, dirty, or damaged items.
Check Ins & Check Outs
Check in for boarding is between 6:30am and 9am. A full day charge is applied on check in days regardless of drop off time. Saturday and Sunday check ins are at an additional $10 charge and can be arranged by appointment if care team members are available.
Check out is by 9am (Monday-Friday) on the last date of the reservation. If check out is after 9am, daycare rates apply. Late charges apply to dogs not picked up by 6pm.
Dogs not picked up by 6:15pm will be placed into boarding and an additional boarding day will be charged.
Saturday and Sunday check outs are at an additional $10 charge and can be arranged by appointment.
Late Night Pick Up Option
Pre-scheduled late night pick ups can occur for an additional $10. This is based on staff availability. Please mention this when scheduling your dog's daycare and at drop off.
Care Team Sleepover
We are happy to provide a staff member to snuggle with your pup all night long. This is at an extra rate of $25/night but is included on the holidays.
*Boarding Dogs Participating in Daycare
The inclusion of daycare for some boarding dogs is a benefit only for the dogs for whom daycare would be a healthy and positive experience. Boarding dogs can participate in daycare at no additional cost if our team determines they would generally enjoy this experience. The North Paw training team has full discretion in determining whether or not a dog in boarding participates in daycare. If a boarding dog does not join daycare there is no reduction of boarding cost.
Cancellations & No Show Policy
Cancellations must be made by 9am, 2 days in advance of the date of your dog's boarding reservation for non-holidays. Holidays require 5 days in advance notice. Dogs that do not show up for their reserved boarding date will be charged for the dates of the reservation. No exceptions.
