Choose Daycare and your playdate type.

Select Daycare, then choose your playdate type. Classic includes K9 Convoy pickup and drop-off. Pet Parent means you bring your pup to House of Paws and pick them up yourself.

Choose the date and times.

Select your date and choose the drop-off and pick-up times. Only available times will appear. For Classic / K9 Convoy, the times show when the convoy is scheduled to leave House of Paws on its route—not the exact time it reaches your home. For Pet Parent, the times are your exact drop-off and pick-up appointments. Click the blue Services button to continue.

Complete the required fields.

Required sections are marked with an asterisk (*). Veterinarian and Allergies are common places to get stuck: select your veterinarian, or use Add a Vet if needed. Allergies requires text—even if your pet has no allergies, enter NA or None instead of leaving it blank. Include any medical conditions and other relevant information we should know about your pup.

Include feeding information—even for playdates.

Please include your pet’s food, schedule, amounts, and feeding instructions even if they are not sleeping over, so we can care for them in an emergency. If it is easier, or their instructions are unique or complicated, put the details in Feeding Notes beneath Feeding Method and Food Type. Include anything else that helps us care for your pet, then review and save their profile.
