Thank you Bayside Clients!!
BEST Doggie Daycare/Boarding Service
Doggie Daycare & Group Play Options
Bayside Bed & Biscuit has several doggie daycare options available Monday through Saturday to accommodate you and your dog’s busy schedule. With daycare activities for both social and active pups as well as the non-social &/or pampered pups, we have something for everyone.
Daycare/Individual Play Options
Currently we offer two options for individual daycare play.
A.) Daycare is available on a daily basis (Monday through Saturday) for just $18 per pet. This service provides your pet(s) with a 15 minute playtime with one of our trained staff. Your dog will stay in one of our state rooms and will receive two potty walks and a snack. We also have daycare for cats who stay in the “cattery”. Advanced reservations are highly recommended.
B.) Master State Room Daycare is also available on a daily basis (Monday through Saturday) for a fee of just $22 per dog. Your dog will stay in one of our Master Suites and will receive a 15 minute playtime with one of our staff, a snack ad two potty walks. The Master Suites resemble a bedroom setting, complete with wrought iron bed and television. Advanced reservations highly recommended.
Group Play
Group Play is offered Monday through Friday and offers your dog socialization and exercise in a fun and safe, supervised environment. It is one of the most popular and fun times at Bayside Bed & Biscuit. We’ve got big yards to run in, swimming pools, toys galore & lots of love for your babies. Large dogs play together in our huge play yard and outdoor pavilion. Smaller dogs play with their friends in the big yard behind the boarding area. Both groups have indoor alternatives in case of bad weather. Day Care Deck Hands have specialized training for dogs in group play and every pet in group is supervised closely. We do recommend and encourage making a reservation for Group Play as space is sometimes limited.
Due to the highly physical nature of Group Play, we do not recommend feeding your dog within one hour of Group Play, due to the risk of “bloat”. We can provide meals/treats as needed during “rest time” from 11:30 – 1:00.
The guidelines, rules and temperament test application for Group Play are listed below.
Please come back and visit the group activities page often & see what new fun we have added.

New Group Play Information Made Easy!!!
Easy drop-off from 7:00 to 8:00 a.m., before usual business hours, you can take advantage of our new early drop-off, just take your Group Player to the Training Building during this hour and you’re on your way. After 8:00 a.m., it’s your choice either at the front desk or at the Training Building.
Take your dog’s leash and collar with you at drop-off and bring them back at pick-up. Our Bayside Bed & Biscuit leashes will be used by staff when needed during the day. This ensures that leashes and collars go home on the right pet. This will also keep them from getting damaged or worn in bad weather.
Easy pick-up after the end of Group Play for both half-day Players and full-day Players. The easiest way (and best value for you) is to have a punch card on file. Please ask a Cruise Director for more information if you need it. Please make sure you have a current credit card on file to ensure an easy pick up from the training building. You can always come inside & get your kids also.
No need to pack treats or lunch, we have treats for all participants. It’s okay to bring in treats for your dog, please limit the number of treats to 2 for small dogs and 4 for large dogs. We will take care of any meals if needed.
We appreciate everyone’s help in making our group play the best available. Any questions, comments or concerns please let us know. The only way we can grow & have the best care is by having such great clients & crew.
