Doggy Daycare Requirements:
 

We require the following medical records for daycare attendees before attending. Titers, if your vet deems sufficient, are also acceptable: 
 

  • Bordetella vaccination

  • Rabies vaccination

  • Distemper / Parvo vaccination / Lepto 

  • Valid Cook County dog license or application for one

​

In addition:
 

  • All owners must Sign Up for daycare, and fill out our Health and Temperament, Injury, Illness and Liability Form

  • All first time attending Hyde Bark Play Park dogs will first do a 1/2 or full "trial day" before they can be scheduled to attend regularly. Trial days are free of charge and can be scheduled M-F at our normal drop off and pick up times. If your dog has never attended daycare before we recommend a 1/2 day to start with. Note: all veterinary records are required before your trial day. Trial days must be booked in advance and we cannot accept walk-ins

  • Dogs may not have exhibited aggression towards other dogs or humans

  • All dogs must be at least 4 months of age and have their vaccinations 

  • All daycare dogs must be spayed or neutered by 7 months of age. we are sorry, but if your dog is not spayed or neutered after that time, they will not be allowed to attend daycare!

  • All dogs must currently be on preventative heartworm and flea medication

  • We highly recommend your dog attend daycare on a regular schedule of at least 1-2 days per week - this helps your dog be comfortable and happy by having a routine and regular friends they get to see every time rather than different and new dogs every time they come in

  • For safety reasons, all dogs must wear a quick-release buckle type collar. If you do not have one, we can provide you with one that you can have for $10

  • Dogs may not be exhibiting any signs of illness such as upper respiratory illness, including (but not limited to) canine cough or canine influenza, Stomach virus / vomiting, Giardia, Worms or parasites, CPV (mouth warts), or Fleas. Dogs exhibiting any symptoms of illness will have to be isolated and may need to be picked up early

  • If your dog will need to be fed, please pack their pre-measured food in a ziplock bag or sealed container with their full name clearly labeled. You do not need to bring bowls​​

  • We reserve the right to refuse service at our discretion. Our goal is a 100% safe, happy, and enriching environment for all pets. Doggy daycare isn't for every dog, and all dogs will be subject to assessment for behavior and environmental tolerance
