    We understand sometimes your dog has a favorite toy or blanket, but at Nauset Canine Club we don’t allow personal belongings from home to accompany your pet. We provide blankets, beds and bowls for your pet. Filled Kongs and chews can be purchased in our additional services. We strive to maintain the cleanest facility and have to adhere to this policy in order to do so.

  • What do I need to know before booking daycare?

Your dog will have a consult with one of our staff before his/her first daycare visit.
