Please read full text, including bullet points below, before requesting booking. Small Paws Daycare and Boarding is a husband and wife team with over 25 years combined experience caring for dogs. We offer supervised play and interaction right from our Washington, DC home. We are dedicated to providing the kind of personalized care and one-on-one attention for your furry companions that you won't find at larger daycare centers and kennels. We believe that your loved one deserves to be treated as a family member in our home. Positive reinforcement is used when communicating with your dog. We have experience with seniors, those with separation anxiety, and special needs (including short nose breeds). We have two small dogs who are our world. They get along great with other dogs and love having friends over. We have a fenced back yard and give bathroom breaks as often as needed. We live in a house that always has street parking for easy drop-off and pick-up on a quiet, safe residential street, conveniently located in the Hill East neighborhood. Book your dog's stay today. We can’t wait to start looking after your fur-baby. 🐾 Please note that we only accept small breed dogs up to 25 lbs.
