Boarding Tips

Here are some top tips to ensure your pet feels at home while being boarded at Dogeden Pet Resort:

Bring Familiar Items

Pack your dog's favourite blanket, bed, or toys. These familiar scents and textures provide comfort and ease anxiety in a new environment.

Stick to Their Diet

Send your pet's regular food with clear instructions on portion sizes and feeding times. Sudden dietary changes can upset their stomach or cause stress.

Provide Medication Instructions

If your dog is on any medication, supply it in a clearly labeled container with dosage details and a schedule. Staff at Dogeden are trained to administer meds, but clarity helps avoid mistakes.

Share Their Routine

Dogs thrive on routine. Let the resort staff know your dog’s daily schedule—walk times, sleep habits, and any quirks or preferences they should be aware of.

Communicate Personality Traits

Inform staff about your dog’s temperament, likes/dislikes, fears, and social behavior. This helps them tailor care and avoid stressful situations (e.g., avoiding group play if your dog prefers solitude).

Do a Trial Stay

If possible, arrange a short visit or daycare session before a long stay. It helps your pet get familiar with the environment and staff.

Make Drop-Off Calm

Keep drop-off short and upbeat. Dogs sense our emotions—if you're anxious or overly affectionate during goodbye, it can make them more nervous.

Discover why Dogeden has been trusted for over two decades—because your pets deserve the very best.
