Dogs playing on the green lawn during daycare

Sam, the golden retriever who inspired Sam's Pawmates

Welcome to Sam's Pawmates

A place we'd want for our own dog

Sam's Pawmates is named after Sam, a Golden Retriever who inspired the space. From the individual kennels to the outdoor run and swimming pool, the facility was built around a simple idea: giving dogs the kind of care and comfort we'd want for Sam himself.

Whether it's your dog's first daycare visit or part of their weekly routine, we want them to feel comfortable here.

Before your visit

Your dog's wellbeing comes first

Health requirements

Dogs must be at least six months old, as younger puppies are still developing their immunity and may be more vulnerable to infections in a shared daycare environment. This helps us maintain a safer space for every dog in our care.

Kennel cough vaccination is required at least 3–5 days prior to the first visit, and every dog is checked for ticks at admission.

A thoughtful first visit

We recommend a daycare visit before a first overnight boarding stay, so your dog can become familiar with the facility and team.
