Our Daycare for Dogs features BOTH Outdoor and Indoor Areas
Our outdoor pet daycare play spaces for dogs are unique in the Boston area. In fact, several clients drive past other facilities that offer daycare for pets to take advantage of our meticulously-maintained outdoor areas.
This is because most local doggy daycare providers do not maintain outdoor areas for dogs to play.
Also, many well-meaning providers of residential doggie daycare or institutional day care for dogs typically use wood chips, gravel, dirt, or natural grass in their outdoor play areas.
But all of these materials can pose health and safety challenges for dogs and puppies, because:
- Wood chips, gravel, dirt and natural grass cannot be adequately disinfected
- Dogs eat wood chips or gravel, which can cause intestinal blockage that requires surgery

Features & Benefits of our OUTDOOR Play Spaces for Dogs and Puppies
- Pet-friendly K9 grass, a specialty artificial turf, allows for regular disinfection and prevents muddy paws for cleanliness and safety
- Wide open area with tall fencing enables dogs to safely run and explore without distractions
- Sturdy pet-friendly non-porous play structures are cleaner and more comfortable than wood
Features & Benefits of our INDOOR Play Spaces for Dogs and Puppies
- Sturdy, non-porous interior pet-friendly furniture supports safe play & routine disinfection
- Non-porous epoxy floors are regularly disinfected for everyone’s health
- Indoor play programs separate dogs by size for proper socialization and safety
All inside and outside areas are spray-disinfected with a veterinarian-formulated cleaner that is EPA-registered to inhibit a broad spectrum of virus-causing pathogens including SARS and COVID-19.
Our comfortable daycare bedding is also washed & disinfected daily, for safety and comfort.
PLAY? Did you say PLAY?
Our Daycare for Puppies Supports their Unique Needs
Our daycare attendants understand how to support and nurture puppies (dogs up to 6 months old).
Unlike mature dogs, very young dogs’ developing brains are quickly imprinted with social cues. That’s why we purposely separate them from older dogs. We also take care to maintain playgroups of six or fewer puppies, to promote healthy socialization and interaction with their young peers.
Our puppy daycare facility also supports clients who are crate-training their new puppies at home. Owners can bring in their home crate, and we will put it in a large pen with the door open, so their puppy can go in and out of the crate to support critical continuity with their home environment.
If I can’t be home, I’d rather be here.
Our Attentive Pet Daycare Staff is Passionate about Pets
Our experienced doggy daycare professionals eagerly attend to your dog’s unique needs.
We maintain several long-term dog daycare employees and enjoy very low staff-turnover. Everyone at Toureen takes their responsibility to pets and their owners very seriously. New employees receive comprehensive training, and there is always access to a general manager or owner for any questions or issues that arise.
Swift medical attention is always available next door at the Massachusetts Animal Medical Center. Our affiliation with Blue Pearl emergency vet service also gives pet owners great peace of mind.

Dog Daycare Frequently Asked Questions about Toureen Pet Resort & Day Spa
Do you offer individual playtimes for dogs who cannot be in a group?
Yes. If the group is too stressful for your pet, or if you feel your pet’s temperament is too aggressive or anxious, we offer individual play times. This allows them to exercise, play and relax as we monitor and maintain their health, happiness and safety.
Do you offer formal dog training or behavior correction?
No, we do not offer formal dog training or behavior correction. Our primary focus and mission is to support the overall wellbeing of every dog and puppy we serve. We want you and your pet to thoroughly enjoy visiting us, and to benefit from a happy, welcoming experience with every visit or extended stay.
Do you administer medications to pets?
Yes, we can administer most medications to pets. Common examples include antibiotics and medications for arthritis and other common conditions. In general, the only medications we don’t administer are ones that require injection, such as diabetes medicine. Fortunately, we are located adjacent to a medical center, so pet owners can arrange for medications accordingly.
Do you charge for a trial visit of my dog to your facility?
No, there is no charge to come and tour our facility, with or without your dog! We will gladly provide you with a complimentary tour of our welcoming, spacious, clean and safe facility.
Can I pick up or drop off my dog anytime?
Yes, we are flexible, and have no rigid rules about drop off and pickup timing. Our full-day doggy daycare is anything more than 4 hours between the hours of 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. Our half-day doggy daycare is any block of time, up to 4 hours.
