Meet the two who started it all.
A pet parent with 20 years of "if only they did this differently." And the chocolate Lab who made her say it. So we built it ourselves.
It started with a chocolate Lab named Coffee.
Coffee has been a daycare regular since he was seven months old. You could always hear the excitement in his bark at drop-off.
At every daycare we tried, we thought the same thing: "This is good. It could be so much better." Better supervision. Better communication. Better attention to who our dog actually is.
Still a regular. Now he owns the place.Every frustration made the list. Then we fixed it.
A daycare designed by pet parents, for their pups. Most daycares shape their care around their software. We built software that serves our care.
- Vague updatesWhat we built10+ real-time updates a dayPlay, rest, water, potty. All of it.
- Never knowing how the day wentWhat we builtA report card, from drop-off to pickupPlus their own Dawgs Day at pickup.
- Just another pup in the roomWhat we builtThe Pawfile30+ data points per visit, adding up.
- Big dogs and little dogs, one roomWhat we builtTwo rooms, sized rightRaiders Room for 30 to 90 lbs. Knights Room for under 30 lbs. Every pup plays with pups their size.
- "Can I see them?" "Not really."What we builtHD livestream and an appEnrolled parents can peek in anytime. Photos all day.
- That daycare smellWhat we builtFresh air, filtered water, soft floors4 HEPA air purifiers, RO water, rubber flooring. Walk in and breathe.
Some folks say we went overboard. We think we could go a little further.
We couldn't find the daycare our dogs deserved. So we built it, and then we just kept going.
20 years of loving dogs. Now it's a lifetime commitment.
It started in college, with a dream of becoming a vet. Life went another way, 17 years working with people, but my heart never left the world of dogs.
When my husband and I decided to make it full-time, Las Vegas felt like home. We built Dawgs House from the ground up and poured 20 years as a daycare parent into it.
The things we'll never compromise on.
Every pup is treated like our own.
We learn their quirks, their friends, their favorite spot. That's why we track everything.
Transparency builds trust.
Live cameras, report cards, real photos. We don't ask you to take our word for it. We show you. Every day.
Patience is not optional.
Every interaction starts with gentleness. We follow LIMA, because care should never raise its voice.
The details matter. All of them.
The water. The air. The floors. The music. The gates. If it touches their day, we've tested it.
Why "Dawgs" House?
We met at the University of Washington and have been Dawgs fans ever since. Naming the place was easy: our love for dogs, plus our love for the game.
