Boarding and Grooming

Of course! We encourage you to visit Darbster Doggy and take a tour. Please call us in advance to arrange for a tour.

We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, cash and checks. Payment is due when you pick your dog up. You may also purchase a multi-day package and set up an account with us for payment.

Yes, but please contact us prior to arrival to make proper arrangements with check‐in paperwork and payment. You may add names to your pre‐approved pick up list to allow other people to pick up your dog.

The dogs are separated mainly by size. Medium sized dogs will be placed in the play area that best suits his/her temperament. We have a separate area for large dogs and small dogs. Our rescue dogs are separated from our boarding dogs at all times, including during play time. In addition, we have kennels in which to keep dogs that may need quiet time. Our primary focus is to keep all the dogs safe and ensure that they have an enjoyable time while in our care.

Please notify us if you are going to miss the final pick up time of 6:30 p.m. You will be charged $5 for every 15 minutes that you are late, up to 30 minutes. If you are unable to pick up your dog before we close, you are responsible for contacting someone to pick up the dog for you. If that is not possible, you will be charged for an additional overnight boarding.
