How Dog Daycare at the Petropolitan Works

A day at The Petropolitan is a thoughtfully curated experience built around your pet’s personality, energy level, and comfort.
01

Drop-Off & Welcome

After passing their evaluation, your dog is greeted by our accredited team for a quick check-in and gentle introductions. We confirm records and place them in a compatible playgroup—matched by size, energy, and temperament—to start the day smoothly.

02

Tailored Play & Enrichment

Once settled, play is professionally guided in climate-controlled rooms with ambient music and custom equipment. Groups rotate through spaces for variety, with light enrichment (puzzles, sniff breaks, cues) to keep minds engaged and interactions positive.

03

Leashed Walks & Mid-Day Balance

Every pup enjoys two leashed walks to stretch and reset. Full-day guests also get structured nap or chill breaks in cozy enclosures with fresh bedding—maintaining a well-balanced rhythm of movement and rest.

04

Pick-Up & Day Recaps

At pick-up, we share a friendly summary of your dog’s day. First-timers may also receive a digital report card with highlights—because details matter.

Everything You Need to Know About Daycare at The Petropolitan

From health requirements to daily routines, here’s what to expect before your pup joins the fun.
What vaccines are required for daycare?
  • For dogs: Rabies, Distemper/Parvo (DHPP), Bordetella (must be renewed every 6 months)
  • For cats: Rabies, FVRCP

We also recommend the Canine Influenza vaccine for dogs, though it is not required.

Do I need to submit vaccine records?

Yes. Proof of current vaccinations must be submitted before your first visit. For dogs, The Petropolitan requires Bordetella, Distemper/Parvo, and Rabies. They recommend completing vaccinations at least 10 days prior to visiting so they're fully effective. Records are submitted electronically for verification.

Is an evaluation required before daycare?

Yes. Every new dog completes a behavioural evaluation on their first visit. This ensures your pup is comfortable in a social setting and safe to join group play before being accepted into the daycare program.

Do dogs need to be spayed or neutered?

Yes. Dogs over 9 months must be spayed or neutered to participate in group play. If a dog isn't a fit for group play, The Petropolitan offers personal-care options so they can still enjoy one-on-one time and tailored activities.

Can puppies attend daycare?

Yes. Puppies can attend from 8 weeks of age once they've received at least two sets of puppy vaccinations. Bordetella is required with completion of the puppy vaccine series, and Rabies is required by 1 year of age.

What if my dog isn't comfortable in group play?

That's exactly what the evaluation helps determine. If your dog prefers people to other dogs or needs a quieter pace, The Petropolitan provides personal-care options instead of group play. For the well-being of all guests, dogs who are unable to relax in the facility (for example, persistent excessive barking or destructive behaviour) can't be accommodated in group settings.

Testimonials

Pawsitive Praise from Delighted Pet Parents

What a great place!
“We were on a month-long roadtrip which had us spending a few days at the Fairmont Palliser in Calgary. We have two border collies who needed some quality playtime and came across The Petropolitan by chance while walking the boys. For the 3 days during Stampede kick off weekend, we were able to get the boys in for daycare and they loved it! The staff even had a pancake breakfast option for the pups! Great staff, wonderful venue and so centrally located to downtown. Highly recommend if your pups need a vacation all their own!”
Leanne Roth
It makes me so happy
“It makes me so happy that ever since he started daycare at The Petropolitan he can’t wait to get out of the car and absolutely loves it. I get sent report cards with pictures and a list of his new friends and he gets the best treatment. I also appreciate that the staff is always extremely kind and helpful and there’s such a wide range of services for the pets. I can’t put a price on the peace of mind I get from knowing that when I drop my dog off at daycare or the hotel that he will be well taken care of.”
Sami Aranguren
Huge thank you to the entire Petropolitan team!
“We are really happy with the care Petropolitan provides for our dogs. The staff goes out of their way, even handling high-maintenance requests like hand-feeding one of my dogs. They genuinely got to know our boys, making sure they feel at home, whether it's for a day or three weeks.”
Beth Haldane
I absolutely love this place
“I absolutely love this place and would recommend it over and over again! I am a very anxious dog owner as he is my first and these guys went above and beyond to ensure my dog is well taken care of. After answering my endless questions about his stay I was convinced I will never take him anywhere else. I love them and so does my doggie. He had such a blast and made some fur friends. Reasonably priced and the staff is friendly, helpful and makes you feel like your dog is also on vacation. Thank you, thank you!”
Victoria Glaessner
I cannot thank Petropolitan enough
“From playtime to personalized attention, Thunder was not just another dog in their care — he was treated like family. The professionalism, compassion, and top-tier service exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Petropolitan to any pet parent looking for a place that truly understands and prioritizes their furry companion's needs. Thank you for going above and beyond.”
