We’re All About the “CARE” in Doggy Day Care
Our 24-hour caregivers are dedicated, educated, and experienced in the diverse field of canine care. As a result, all of the guests at Chasin’ Tails are able to enjoy a stimulating and safe environment with friendly fellow dogs. Our dogs are separated according to size, age, and energy level. Each dog will receive a thorough assessment on their first day to see what area would best suit them. We have a large outdoor space available multiple times a day depending on the weather. We understand that not all canine friends might be suitable for our Free Play don’t worry we have other options for them. See our Private Care or Day School Programs.
Worry-free Fun – for Dogs and Their People!
Free Play is a great social environment for dogs who are easy going and want to have fun. We have multiple large play areas for active dogs to burn off their energy. During a full day of play, your canine pal will release some of his or her pent-up, excess energy in a satisfying, productive way. You’ll notice the difference when you bring your dog home from daycare.
Different than a Dog Park
Our Free Play differs from a dog park in that each group is monitored by one of our skilled Canine Coaches to ensure all play is reciprocated and enjoyed by all canines involved. Smaller play groups can ensure that our shyer friends are not getting overwhelmed, and our excited friends have the right play mate to match their enthusiasm.
Assessment Day
Each canine friend is fully evaluated on their first day or when it has been a long span between visits. This evaluation allows us to find the best play group and accommodations for each dogs’ individual needs. This evaluation will include dog to dog social interactions, handling by staff, and housing for rest breaks. Please allow a minimum of 6 hours on this first very important day.
Our doggy Free Play Daycare service is hassle-free for our canine clients and pet parents alike. No appointments are necessary, and our service is here for you seven days a week. Some behaviour and health restrictions apply.

The Bordetella vaccine, in addition to lice/mite prevention, is highly recommended for all dogs who come into contact with other dogs. Titres are accepted.
SPAYING/NEUTERING REQUIRED: All dogs who regularly partake in in our free play program will be continually evaluated up to and after 6 months for eligibility in open care. Any new dogs joining our Free Play program after 6 months of age are required to be fixed. (Please call for clarification if you are unsure or have concerns.)
MEDICAL RESTRICTIONS: Our goal is always the comfort and wellness of every doggy in our care. Our Staff are all Pet First Aid certified and are trained in several common medical conditions to provide the best care. Not all medical conditions are able to be accommodated if you have any questions, please reach out to one of our helpful Canine experts.
Assessment Evaluation Extension
Some dogs need time to settle into a new environment. The assessment extension allows a slow introduction, assistance with appropriate play, confidence, and pacing themselves. This extra support is available for up to 5 days including their initial evaluation. This will help to determine if Free Play is right program for your pup. If its not that’s ok, we have other programs that may suit your pup better. It is important that these extra evaluations happen within a 3-month period to allow learning retention.
*Please note that when an assessment is performed during a boarding stay the extended evaluation will continue their next stay
