One Dog. One Dream. One Doghouse School.

It all began with a dog—a bond so profound it inspired a whole new way of thinking about daycare and boarding.

He needed more than just a place to stay; he needed a place to be himself.

A place where he could be free, run wild, and enjoy the simple pleasures of getting muddy and digging in the mulch.

So, his mom listened. She left her job to create a dog daycare focused on his needs and perspective, not hers.

That’s why we revel in the mud, welcome the mess, and wholeheartedly honor the essence of being a dog.

The Doghouse School exists because one dog deserved more—and so do yours.
