Are you planning a trip but feeling anxious about leaving your furry friend behind? Choosing the right dog boarding facility can make all the difference in ensuring your peace of mind, pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness while you’re away. At Daryana’s Backyard, we care so much about dog owners and their pets, that we would like to educate you about this topic, regardless if you end up choosing us. Here’s your ultimate guide to finding the perfect home away from home for your beloved pup.

1. Cleanliness

First things first, cleanliness is key. When you BOOK a boarding facility, pay close attention to the overall cleanliness of the premises, including the kennels, play areas, and common spaces. A clean environment not only ensures your dog’s health but also reflects the facility’s commitment to providing quality care.

At Daryana’s Backyard we use a wide variety of dog-safe cleaning products to maintain a sanitary environment at all times. Our dog play runs are picked up multiple times per day to ensure all areas are inviting for the dogs to enjoy while at play.

2. Amenities

Look for facilities that offer a range of amenities to keep your dog happy and entertained during their stay. From spacious play yards and comfortable sleeping areas to interactive toys and enrichment activities, a variety of amenities can make your dog’s boarding experience more enjoyable.

At Daryana’s Backyard, we understand what all is involved and required for the dog’s wellbeing. We provide a large fenced in area of approximately 20,000 sq. ft. with grass and shade trees, as well as spacious shaded fenced in dog run areas. Our large play/run area and dog runs are interconnected to allow speedy separation if needed. In our large area we offer a water station, ball and frisbee fetch activities, we encourage running and exercise as well as socialization with similar temperament dogs. In this space is where dogs enjoy sharing toys, wait their turn for treats, explore and sniff the world around them, learn positive habits, boundaries, personal space. Good manners and new behaviors are encouraged in a group setting such as recall command without the owner present.

When inside, dogs enjoy a climate-controlled environment with restful music as well as a dog tv in the background. Blackout curtains and luxurious dog beds that we’re ready to offer ensure a full night’s sleep for both dogs and on-site caregivers.

What else do you think would be a key factor in choosing a quality dog boarding facility for your furry family member? We would love your ideas. You can send them to daryanasbackyard@gmail.com.
