Paws Park Midstream – Day Care & Boarding

At Paws Park your furry friends will have a Pawfect experience!

Paws Park is approximately 10 000m² of paw pleasure, including picnic facilities.

Visit us for a fun walk in Paws Park or book your furry friend in for boarding, socialising, playtime or dog training. We pride ourselves in providing a homely, stress free environment for you and your canines to enjoy.

Our dogs spend the morning doing introductions, which includes much sniffing, smelling and no small amount of fun doggie interaction. This is then followed by games with the pack leader, ranging from playing fetch to agility and puzzle like games, over lunch (during the heat of the day) the dogs get a rest and lounge around our dog pool. This is then followed with walks/running on the other side of the park where our pack leader works on recall and other training.

Our daycare dogs are given individual attention throughout the day and the schedule is flexible and dictated by what our dogs need.

Services offered are:

Doggy Day Care

Doggy day care is a wonderful way to help your dog burn energy and practice their social skills. Most dogs enjoy one to two days of doggy day care per week.

Free Roam Boarding

It used to be that dog boarding meant keeping your dog locked in a confined area for the duration of your vacation. To many dog owners, dog boarding still means that. However, you always know a good boarding facility because they have the option for a cage-free boarding experience. While if your dog is excessively nervous or aggressive it might not be the right choice, if you have a social dog butterfly on your hands, they can have just as much of a vacation in it as you are.

If your dog does well in social situations, then a cage-free boarding experience is like an all day play date. They are put in with groups of like minded dogs also staying there, and are of course supervised by staff to play and quickly break up any disputes. However, don’t mistake that cage-free boarding is 100% cage-free. Your dog will be free to roam all day, but will still be privileged to private sleeping accommodations at night. After a long day of roaming around and playing with a bunch of dogs, it is likely they will sleep like a stone and not even realize they are alone. It might be kind of sad to think your dog isn’t going to be missing you, but at least you will know that they will be too tired to miss you. Unfortunately, cage-less boarding isn’t right for every dog. It may be that they need to have their cage-free time limited. Some dogs build up stress and that can make them act out.

However, even if they need some solitude to unwind, they will still be treated to regular potty breaks and play time. If you have a vacation planned and think cage-free boarding may be right for your dog, contact us today.
