Dog Daycare in St. Louis

Give your dog the social, physical, and mental stimulation they deserve while you're busy.

Pet Empowerment Philosophy

At Petropolis, our dog daycare isn't just about supervision – it's about creating meaningful experiences that empower your dog to thrive. We believe dogs need mental stimulation, physical activity, and social interaction to live their best lives.

Our professionally trained staff facilitates appropriate play, learning opportunities, and rest periods tailored to your dog's individual personality and energy level. Unlike traditional dog daycare facilities, we focus on quality interactions and enrichment activities that build confidence and skills.

Frequently Asked Dog Daycare Questions

Dog daycare is a service where dogs are supervised and cared for during the day while their owners are at work or otherwise occupied. Dogs receive exercise, socialization with other dogs (if appropriate), and mental stimulation in a safe environment with professional staff.

 
 
 

All new dogs complete a temperament assessment to ensure they're comfortable in a group setting. This evaluation helps us understand your dog's play style, social preferences, and any special needs they might have.

All dogs at Petropolis are required to have the following vaccinations:

  • Rabies
  • Distemper (DHPP)
  • Bordetella

Visit our vaccination policy page to learn more.

We do not require dogs to be spayed or neutered to participate in group play, with a few exceptions. In-tact males over the age of 12 months and females in heat will not be permitted. 

Our trained staff can administer most medications at no additional charge. Simply bring the medication in its original container with clear instructions.
