Dog Daycare at Airdrie Puppy Pals
Every dog, and every dog daycare, is different. At Airdrie Puppy Pals, we believe a great daycare experience starts with proactive planning, positive training, and helping every dog have the best day learning, playing, and spending time with friends.
Before joining our daycare program, every dog starts with an in-person Meet and Greet and playstyle assessment. It's a chance for us to get to know you and your Puppy Pal, check vaccinations, answer questions, and make sure everyone feels comfortable before scheduling their first day at daycare.

The Puppy Pals Difference
Every day at Airdrie Puppy Pals starts long before the dogs arrive to Daycare. Our team of exceptional Dog Care Specialists plan our playrooms in advance based on what we know about the dogs joining us that day, their play styles, energy level, personality, and friendships of all sizes.
Throughout the day our Daycare Puppy Pals enjoy:
- Supervised group play and training
- Regular outdoor bathroom breaks
- The freedom to rest when they choose
Before heading home, each Puppy Pal gets a quick head to toe check with a member of our team. These proactive check-ins help dogs become more comfortable with being touched, and give you an extra set of eyes if we notice anything out of the ordinary.
Pricing & Enrichment Options
We offer three ways to join the fun at daycare: pay at pickup, packages, and a monthly membership. Monthly membership pricing starts at $45 + GST per visit. We'll go over all our daycare options at your Meet and Greet to help you find the best fit for your Puppy Pal.
Keeping Daycare Familiar
Regular visits help your Puppy Pal feel comfortable with our space, routine, team, and daycare friends. We ask that all Puppy Pals attend daycare at least twice a month, whichever daycare option you choose.
Add a Little Extra Fun
Make your Puppy Pal's day extra special with one-on-one time with a team member. Our enrichment add-ons include:
- Nail trims
- Leash manners training
- Trick training
- Frozen Kong treats
- Seasonal photos
- And more
Sleepovers for Daycare Pals
Once your Puppy Pal is part of our daycare family, they can also join us for overnight sleepovers.
Vaccination Records
We use a secure online platform called Paw Partner to manage your dog's profile and vaccination records. After booking your Meet and Greet, you'll receive an email to set up your account and upload your dog's current vaccination records before your appointment.
Required vaccines:
We also recommend keeping your dog on a regular flea, tick, and lice preventative to help keep daycare a safe and comfortable space for everyone.
Ready to Get Started?
To make sure daycare is a happy and comfortable experience for everyone, your Puppy Pal should:
- Be at least 16 weeks old
- Be comfortable around other dogs and people
- Have no history of harming dogs or people
Puppies can start daycare before they're spayed or neutered, as long as they join before 6 months old. From 8 months old, they'll need to be spayed or neutered to keep attending.
If your dog isn't comfortable around other dogs, private training is a great place to start.

Your Meet and Greet gives us a chance to learn about your Puppy Pal's personality and play style, answer your questions, and make sure daycare is a good fit for everyone.
Why don't we offer facility tours?
Advocating for the dogs already in our care is our main priority. Our education and training have taught us how much unfamiliar visitors can affect each dog differently. Even someone new looking into a playroom can leave some dogs overstimulated, anxious, or distracted. We proactively manage our playrooms to keep the dogs comfortable, which is why we don't offer daycare tours.
