Boarding

Boarding

We strive to give all guests vacationing at Canine Republic an individualized experience, with a suite and activity schedule to fit almost every personality! Guests who stay overnight will have the option to enroll into our group Playcare (compatible dogs only) at no extra charge. We can also adjust the length of the Playcare time to suite your dog's energy level and interest.


Not to worry, if your dog is "too cool for school" we offer private play-yard time at regular intervals so they get plenty of fresh air, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day. We also have an array of one-on-one activities with our trained pet-care specialists to choose from if your dog needs some extra TLC. So whether your dog likes to be the star of the show or is the sweet & shy type, there is an activity schedule to meet their needs and ensure they have a positive and enjoyable stay! 


All suites are deep cleaned daily with germicide to maintain a clean and sanitary environment. We do our best to photograph all of our boarding guests daily and post the pictures on our Facebook page and we will update you with reports on their health and behavior as needed. We encourage you to contact us any time to check on your dog during their stay. Our facility is even equipped with a fire suppression system for the safety of all our beloved guests that is monitored 24/7!

Boarding FAQ


We allow all breeds to board with us as long as they are not aggressive to the staff.  We also allow intact animals to board with us, but your dog must be spayed or neutered to participate in dog daycare if they are over 6 months of age.  We do not board female dogs in heat for safety reasons!


Additionally we do not board diabetic dogs that require insulin, as we feel these dogs are best served in a animal hospital setting for boarding stays.


If this is your dog's first time boarding with us or if your dog has had vaccination updates since their last stay, please be sure to provide the most current vaccination records showing your dog is up-to-date on Rabies, Bordatella, and DHLPP. You can upload the files to our Customer Portal, or simply fax, email, or bring a hard copy with you when you drop your dog off for boarding.


Our location is:

4900 McDermott Road

Plano, TX 75024


We are located on McDermott between Preston and Ohio blvd, across the street from Sam's Club and the PGA SuperStore.


Wondering what to bring with your dog for boarding? We will provide the food and water bowls, and each dog will get a comfy (but chew-proof) Kuranda cot bed in their suite. Beyond that, here are our recommendations: 

 

  • We encourage you to bring your dog's regular diet and any treats or medication they require. Please take the time to pre-portion each meal into individually labeled ziploc baggies!  Doing so ensures your pup will have ample food during its scheduled boarding stay.  If your arrive with your dog's food in a bulk container, there will be a $10 bagging fee.
  • Please bring all meds in their original prescription bottles. Weekly pill organizers are okay as long as you brief us on the type of medication the dog is receiving.
  • We do not recommend you bring toys, as they are easy to misplace and pose a choking/ingestion risk depending on the type. Toys stay in the dog's suite and are never brought to doggie daycare since many dogs are toy possessive, so please make sure any toys you bring are safe to leave with the dog unattended.
  • Let us know if you want us to provide your dog with a blanket in their suite to lay on top of the cot. You are also welcome to bring bedding from home if your dog prefers, we just ask that it arrive clean and be machine washable. Bonus points if its also labelled with your dog's name and easy to tell apart from everyone else's bedding!
  • Holiday Closures:  We are closed for pick up or drop off on the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve (closed 12pm to 7pm), and Christmas Day. Please contact our center to speak with a team member to learn more

 

You can drop off or pick up your dog any time during our business hours, although we do kindly request that you drop off for boarding at least 1 hour before closing, so we have time to get your dog settled in and fed before we leave for the evening.
