Because Your Dog Deserves to Feel Safe, Day and Night
At DogPlay, your dog is never left alone. With an overnight handler on-site, playtime during the day, and no extra charges for medication, we offer care beyond the basics.
Why Risk Your Dog’s Safety?
When you leave your dog at other boarding facilities, you trust that they’re safe when the lights turn off, and no one’s around. But are they truly in good hands? Many facilities rely on cameras, alarms, and the hope that nothing goes wrong overnight. At DogPlay, we offer something better: a dedicated, trained overnight handler who is right there with your dog — 24/7
You Deserve Peace of Mind While You Travel
We understand how important your dog's safety is. That’s why we go above and beyond the typical boarding experience

Don’t Leave Your Pup in the Hands of a Camera
Leaving your dog in a facility with no staff on-site overnight is a gamble. Accidents, anxiety, or emergencies can happen at any time. When no one is there to intervene, it could lead to unnecessary stress or worse. Why risk it? Choose a facility where your dog is always cared for — not just monitored.
Give Your Dog the Care They Deserve
Imagine your dog staying in a clean, comfortable environment, enjoying playtime during the day and constant care at night. At DogPlay, we provide a worry-free experience for both you and your furry family member.
Why Pet Owners Choose DogPlay
Our Frenchie, Lennon, goes to another daycare closer to home in Downtown Vancouver—it’s just more convenient for daily visits. But when it comes to boarding, we always choose DogPlay. Lennon has separation anxiety, and most places don’t offer overnight supervision. The idea of him being left alone at night was just too much for us to handle.
At DogPlay, we know he’s safe and comfortable, especially with the option for him to sleep in the same room as a human. It’s been such a game-changer for us. I used to skip family vacations and holidays because I couldn’t find a place I trusted for Lenny.
Now, I can finally travel with peace of mind, knowing he’s in the best hands. I’m so grateful for DogPlay—they’ve truly changed our lives!

Our Seamus has been going to DogPlay for 10 years. He is 12. We cannot say enough great things about DogPlay. The care and attention that Seamus gets every time he is there is always beyond our expectations. Seamus doesn’t go for regular daycare but we trust Seamus with the DogPlay team for boarding when we travel, which happens at least 4 times a year. His groomer Alexis is the absolute best in the business and has been grooming Seamus since he was 8 weeks old. The DogPlay team are the best. Don’t hesitate if you are looking for a safe and caring place for your best friend.

I’ve never reviewed a business before, but my experience with DogPlay was so incredible that I had to share. My 10-month-old rescue pup, Tigi, has bad separation anxiety, so I was nervous about boarding him for the first time. I started with daycare, and he absolutely loved it—always eager to go in and happy and relaxed at pickup.
When it came time for his overnight stay, the handlers were amazing. They let him stay close when he was anxious and helped him adjust with the other dogs. I’m convinced DogPlay is helping him overcome his anxiety through positive socialization.
After five days, I picked up a happy, calm pup who had even learned some new manners! DogPlay truly took wonderful care of Tigi, and I couldn’t recommend them more highly. Thank you!

I should mention how superb their boarding services are. Rather than kenneling them, their boarding is more like an extension of their day at day care. It is on site and open concept so the dogs can pick a doggy bed, crate, a spot on the couch or an area on the floor to curl up by themselves or with another dog. They are never alone because a handler is with them 24/7.
In short, DogPlay is truly doggy heaven and it is such a relief to find a place I can leave my pup totally guilt free, knowing she is having the time of her life while I am away! Thank you!!!
