About Doggy Playdates

ABOUT DOGGY PLAYDATES

Doggy Playdates ​provides a way for families to give their dogs exercise in a fun, safe and healthy environment 
during the workday. 


While a 30min walk may be enough exercise for some dogs, others may need more time to burn off a bit more energy. Therefore, we created a way for dogs to stretch their legs in a full run and to play safely with their furry friends.

WHAT WE DO

We will pick up your pup from home, bring them to a trail or large dog park for 90min to get their wiggles out, and give them the exercise they need to be a healthy dog!  We will then, rinse and towel dry them, or just brush them off depending on how much they became “one with mother nature” during their play. We will then bring them home, let them relieve themselves before they enter the house, fill their water bowl, and tuck them in for a rest before you arrive home.  They will be happy, healthy and content for the night.

CERTIFICATION IS IMPORTANT 

Doggy Playdates is a fully insured organization that puts safety and health as top priorities. Therefore, we are Cat & Dog First Aid and CPR Certified. 

I have taken it a step further and have enrolled in a course to become an obedience and behavior trainer to better understand my furry clients.  With this training, I have learned how to read your dog’s cues to keep them playing safely! When I have completed the course, I will begin the training portion of the business!

ABOUT LAURA

I grew up with dogs, cats, a hamster, and even a bearded dragon.  All animals are a passion of mine!  No, I did not become a veterinarian, though it was an idea. I took care of kids as a babysitter, as a preschool teacher, then as a nanny.  As a babysitter and nanny, I was also asked to care for the families’ pets. Though I loved taking care of others’ children and pets, I knew that my dog, Diogi, was waiting for me at home.
 

That is when I chose to start Doggy Playdates!  Diogi loves to frequent the dog park, and I know many other dogs do too, but with a busy work schedule, I know it is hard to take time at the end of the day to bring your pup to the park.  After completing the contract with my nanny family, I brought Diogi, Jenna, Pita, Baxter, Brooklyn, and Oz to the park! They loved playing, running and relaxing! Seeing them so happy confirmed the reason why I started this business!  

WHY GIVE YOUR DOG A PLAYDATE

  • Dogs are master explorers!  They love to sniff, run and play in trees and brush!  Doggy Playdates gives your dog the opportunity to do this safely and freely!
     

  • Doggy Playdates will give your dog the opportunity to play and socialize with other furry friends!
     

  • Daily exercise for your pup helps to prevent obesity, heart disease, and arthritis.
     

  • Daily exercise will help to ward off boredom, anxiety and frustration your pup may have.  This will help to prevent your dog from displaying destructive behaviors in your home.
      

  • With daily exercise, your dog will be happier, healthier and calmer at home!

DOGGY PLAYDATES SERVICE AREA

Service Areas and Locations

SOME OF OUR FAVORITE LOCATIONS

We love large outdoor dog parks.

We're always looking for the best opportunity for our next location and spend our off time scouting that perfect place!

  • How do you know the dogs will play well together?
    There will be an interview meet and greet at a dog park near you in the evening or on the weekend. The meet and greet will ensure that the pack plays well together and that there is adequate dog etiquette.
  • What is the age range of the dogs?
    Dogs of a variety of ages are able to join us. For young dogs, we ask that the dog be at least 10 months old. For older dogs, we do not have an age restriction, but they must be in a health condition that allows for them to play with other dogs and engage in exercise.
  • What happens during bad weather?
    Rain or shine, Doggy Playdates will continue as normal. Although, if the weather becomes unsafe, then we will pull the pups inside the car to protect them from those elements. Then, we will either bring the dogs back out to play, or bring them home if it is not expected to return to safe conditions.
  • Do you go out on hot days?
    Yes, we go out everyday! During hot days, we take shaded breaks and bring plenty of water for all pups.
  • Do I get updates on my dog during the play date?
    Yes! During every Doggy Playdate, you will get at least one picture of your pup exploring, playing or relaxing.
