Dog Days of Vero Beach is Vero’s premier canine daycare offering a safe, fun and loving environment for
dogs of all sizes. We group dogs by temperament, not size so every pup finds their perfect pack. From daily
daycare to boarding and grooming, we treat every dog like you treat them, as family.

Every new dog starts with a temperament test before joining the pack. Book yours through our website. Once we gauge the temperament, we will group them with other dogs who share the same temperament.

What are your daycare hours?
We’re open Monday through Friday 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM.

  • Any medications with clear dosage and timing instructions.

  • Their favorite toy.
  • The earlier you drop off on the first day the better.

We’ll confirm check out times when you book. Late pickups may be subject to a day care fee.

We keep a close eye on mealtimes and will reach out to you if they skip more than one meal. We’’ try a few tricks to get their appetite going and keep you in the loop throughout.

We offer full grooms and bath and brush out services. A full groom covers everything head to tail including haircut, bath, brush out, nail trimming, ear cleaning and more. A bat and brush out covers all the essentials without the haircut.

Usually between one and four hours depending on your dog’s size, coat and the services requested. We’ll give you an estimated time when you book.
How often should i get my dog groomed?
It depends on the breed and dog coat type. Longer coats generally need attention every four to six weeks while shorter coats can usually go eight to twelve weeks. Our team is happy to help you figure the right schedule.
