Award Winning Dog Daycare

Dog Daycare is one of the best ways to socialize your pup! At My Pet Garden we believe every dog should have their fair share of playtime, and trust us, there's no shortage of play over here.That’s because we have the BEST Doggy Daycare facilities and staff that you can find anywhere in Pasadena, California. The fact that we've been awarded the Best Pet Store and Service in Pasadena for nearly a decade by Pasadena Weekly and our loyal customers. as recently as 2023, proves it.

Besides playing with their new furry friends, your dog will get individualized one on one attention by a highly trained MPG team member. To the benefit of all of our little friends, Doggy Daycare is only available to dogs 35 lbs or less. This helps ensure safe play amongst dogs of like size, and relieve stress from the smaller pups.

Small Dog Daycare at MPG is about safety, supervision AND fun. LOTS of fun. Unlike any other Daycare, we have seen we absolutely insist on having fun with our furry friends. Safe supervision alone is not enough, our trained doggy attendants are equiped to recognize dog behavior and monitor when pups are having fun play, and when they start to get over stimulated. They also give all pets plenty of cuddles and pets, so they're getting lots of love.

There is plenty of mental stimulation to help regulate your dog in daycare, and we have additional enrichment opportunities avaliable as add ons. This can help ensure positive behavior in daycare and a tuckered out pup at home. We are positive reinforcment based, meaning your pet will always be treated with kindness and redirected in constructive ways to ensure success as they continue their daycare journey at MPG. We also offer seasonal activities!

Initial sign-up is easy. Simply walk in any day during normal business hours, bring your pup and all required vaccination records. We will spend the first visit working with your pet to acclimate them into the pack, there is no need to stop by prior to your first visit. We will work with you and your pet to ensure they are having fun and in good hands.

Your First Day

We do not require appointmets for daycare! As mentioned above, you are welcome to walk-in and try it out. You will need your pet's vacination records for us to review. Upon arrival, you will fill out our contract(s) and we will introduce ourseleves to your pup! You can also come in and do this in advance!

After everything is reviewed, we will introduce them to daycare! This will look different for every dog, but they will have guidence from their attendent. We recommened leaving them for around 3-4 hours on their first day. This will help them get past their fear-threshold and see that they can 1. have fun, and 2. know you're coming back. For most dogs, this will speed up the adjustment period.

We want the first expirence to be a good one! All dogs adjust differently, it will depend on so many factors. We're here to make the change easier for both of you.
