Exciting Doggy Daycare in Honolulu
At Pets in the City, we provide a safe, supervised, and nurturing environment for your dog while you’re busy or away. Our doggie daycare is a structured, enrichment-based play program designed to keep pups physically and mentally engaged. It’s more than just fun—it’s a fantastic complement to your dog’s happiest, healthiest life!
Our dog daycare services start at just $39.95 per day!
Our Dog Daycare Locations
We’re all about treating every pet like the individual they are. That’s why Pets in the City offers two kinds of dog daycare experiences to suit your pup’s size, preferences, and personality. Here’s what’s unique about our Oahu dog daycare facilities:
Honolulu & Kahala
Group Daycare for Smaller Dogs
Our Honolulu and Kahala resorts are designed for dog-loving pups under 35 pounds, giving smaller pets a social scene all their own. With carefully curated playgroups and small-dog-friendly enrichment, our guests enjoy safe, confidence-building group play under the watch of our professional staff.
Unleashed
Multiple Play Options for All Sizes
Our Unleashed location is purpose-built for dogs of all sizes, with the largest indoor play areas in Honolulu. Here, your pup can choose their perfect day: classic group play with well-matched furry friends, or one-on-one, personal play for dogs who prefer human attention and solo enrichment. Whatever your dog prefers, they’ll enjoy ample exercise & engagement with rest breaks in luxurious suites.
Your Safe & Fun Dog Daycare in Honolulu
Pet parents have been choosing Pets in the City for trustworthy local dog daycare for almost 20 years! Here are just some ways we provide the best dog daycare experience for your pup every day.
SUPERVISED GROUP PLAY
Our highly trained pet care team closely monitors all play groups to ensure safety and positive interactions among all our furry guests. Each member of our team is certified in group play management, safety, and dog body language.
PERSONALIZED PLAY
Some dogs simply prefer human friends to canine company—and we’ve created a special experience just for them! At our Unleashed location, less dog-social pups have the option of customized, one-on-one playtime with a specially trained caregiver. They get all the exercise and enrichment they need, plus undivided attention and individualized activities!
ENRICHMENT ACTIVITIES
We incorporate a variety of stimulating activities, including agility exercises, interactive games and puzzle toys, all designed to keep your dog mentally and physically engaged!
HEALTH & SAFETY
We maintain strict health protocols, ensuring a clean environment and requiring up to date vaccinations for all dogs. Each day, our facility is deep-cleaned with vet-grade cleansers, and top-notch air filtration and temperature control maintains a healthy atmosphere at all times.
COMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT
Because we’re an indoor facility, we’re able to finely control the temperature and conditions of our play environment every day! There’s no such thing as being rained out, too cold, or too humid—every day is a perfect day to play at our Honolulu doggy daycare.
SOCIALIZATION
Dogs thrive on interaction! Our daycare promotes healthy socialization, helping your pup develop good manners and build confidence. Our highly trained caregivers are always on hand and ready to guide positive interactions and promote good play habits.
Get Started with Dog Daycare
Step 1- Before Scheduling
Simply give us a call or fill out our new customer inquiry form here to get started! Before your pup joins us, we’ll need proof of vaccination from your vet to ensure your pet is current and up to date on distemper, and Bordetella vaccines. Additionally, we require that all dogs 1 year and older are spayed or neutered.
Step 2- Dog Daycare Evaluation
Temperament evaluations are a key part of our excellent safety record, and they help us choose the perfect playmates for your pup. This meet and greet allows us time to get to know your pet and observe their behaviors. At the same time, it gives your dog a chance to get familiar with us and our facility, too!
Step 3- It’s Playtime!
After we determine your pup’s preferred playstyle, then its time to play! For future visits, you can use our convenient customer portal to schedule reservations online 24/7 or simply email or call us to make daycare reservations.
Enrichment Program
Want an even more engaging and meaningful dog daycare experience for your pup? Our enrichment program includes personalized, structured activities to enhance your pet’s physical, mental, and social wellbeing on a deeper level. It goes beyond fun—each day is designed to appeal to your dog’s instincts and motivations, encourage natural behaviors, and provide a sense of total fulfillment.
INTERACTIVE PLAY
Dogs thrive on social interaction! Structured dog daycare sessions encourage positive social engagement, both with humans and other dogs.
COGNITIVE CHALLENGES
Our program incorporates all five enrichment types: Nutritional, Occupational, Physical, Sensory and Social. We do this with special activities like food puzzles, breed-targeted games, snuffle mats, scavenger hunts, and other rotating fun.
AGILITY & OBSTACLE COURSES
We create opportunities for physical exercise in stimulating, novel ways through agility training and obstacle courses in our spacious play areas. These fun courses encourage confidence building and better coordination while appealing to your pup’s sense of adventure!
SENSORY EXPERIENCES
We introduce various textures, scents, and sounds to stimulate your dog’s senses, enhancing their exploration and curiosity while broadening their mind.
NATURE WALKS
While most of our enrichment activities take place inside our beautiful pet resort, enrichment dog daycare includes mid-day nature walks! These one-on-one leashed walks give your pup their daily dose of sunshine and fresh air before they rejoin the fun at the resort.
DAILY REPORT CARDS
Pet parents especially love our daily report cards. You will get an inside look at what your pet did for the day, who they made friends with, and most of all—you’ll get awesome photos and videos of your pup to enjoy!
Benefits of Our Dog Daycare in Honolulu
A quality dog daycare like Pets in the City does more than keep your pup occupied! It’s an enriching experience that promotes their physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. Here are just some of the many benefits:
SOCIALIZATION
Regular playtime with other dogs helps improve your pup’s social skills, builds confidence, and reduces hesitation around new experiences.
PHYSICAL HEALTH
At our dog daycare, your pup will get to chase, run, romp and play to their hearts’ content, supporting their daily exercise needs and better health.
MENTAL STIMULATION
With new sights, smells, friends, and activities each day, your dog’s brain stays engaged—preventing boredom and encouraging better behavior at home.
BETTER HOME LIFE
If your pup is known to chew shoes or shred furniture, routine visits to a healthy energy outline like dog daycare could be just the solution. A well-exercised, mentally satisfied dog is far less likely to get into trouble looking to entertain themselves at home.
