Day Boarding for Dogs
When a full day of work or any other obligation keep you away from home for extended hours, it is important to find safe, reliable, and professional day care for your dog. And, this process shouldn’t add to your life’s demands or stress.
Studies show that dogs that are solitary spend approximately 72% to 85% of their time sleeping, however, when dogs are given the opportunity to socialize with other dogs, only 4-5% of the time is spent inactive1. Last month, Jet Pet customer Hope came to us with her dog, Indy, and described him as “pretty socially awkward and introverted.” But after only a few visits with us, she said Indy absolutely loves all the action at Jet Pet Resort!
Our licensed day boarding facility in Vancouver’s Olympic Village provides professional supervision and engaging activities to keep your dog happy and healthy while you deal with life’s other demands. We provide each dog with a full day of structured play, socialization, and individualized attention suited to their needs.
What Makes Our Vancouver Day Boarding Different
We go above and beyond to set ourselves apart from other boarding facilities. And, this starts with our staff. Our licensed facility is operated by trained, certified, and caring staff. Plus, each staff member must undergo a criminal background check as well as a thorough employment screening process.
The big and noticeable difference at the Jet Pet Resort is our space. Our play areas are large enough to become adventure spaces in which each dog has space to roam alone if they wish. We are a crate-free dog boarding centre, offering private suites to our guests. We manage medication, specific feeding requirements, bathing, and unlike many other dog daycares, we have activities playmates for higher energy dogs. We match playmates for higher-energy dogs as well quieter, more calming environments for dogs who’d rather relax.
Professional Standards You Can Count On
Our pet specialists are trained through professional programs developed by Vancouver’s top pet care experts. This includes our in-house training program, Dog Force U. This program covers dog behaviour, anxiety and stress relief, and first aid. We have partnerships with local experts like Annika McDade from Canine Connections and nearby veterinarians to develop a safe and comprehensive program. Our pet specialists have pet-specific first aid training with Lisa at Walks and Wags.

Day Boarding Activities That Keep Dogs Happy and Engaged
We pride ourselves on providing our guests play, routine, and vibe that suits their energy level and personality, rather than simply their breed or physical traits.
The activities are structured to include times for socialization with compatible dogs, rest, and individualized attention.
Flexible Hours That Work with Real Life
We are open from 6:30 AM to 7:30 PM Monday-Friday, and 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM on weekends and holidays to provide as much flexibility as possible. Those hours include up to 10 hours of daycare time while our rates stay the same so you don’t have to leave work early to get your dog.
Real-Time Updates and Peace of Mind
Through our PAW Partner system, you’ll receive push notifications on your phone when we tag your pet in a photo or update. That way you get a real-time updates of your dog during your time away. On our end we take care of all the details like vaccine reminders, medications, feeding schedules, any special needs, and daily activities.
I’ve been searching for a suitable daycare ever since I moved here and I no longer need to look any further! The new management and staff are amazing and really care about the well being of your pets. I felt totally comfortable with the cleanliness and supervision of the dogs and cats in their care. I was given a thorough tour of the facility by the manager Fay and I was very impressed!
What You Need to Get Started
Get started by preparing:
- Vaccination, neuter, and spay records as all pets must be spayed or neutered with all vaccines up to date (don’t worry, your vet will keep this on record)
- Your pet’s health and behaviour details
- Emergency contact information
- Preferred veterinarian contact details
Dogs like Indy, who might be “socially awkward” elsewhere, often thrive at our Jet Pet Resort because we take the time to understand each dog’s personality and match them with the right group.
