Spacious Play Areas With Safety Built In

Our indoor play area is climate controlled and kept very clean and safe. All indoor areas have access to an outdoor yard so playgroups can get rotated inside and outside due to inclement weather. Our outdoor play area has plenty of shade to keep our friends cool in the summer and dry in the winter. Our large windows and all-day access to our outdoor yard gives your dog the natural light he or she needs throughout the day. Our secure, fenced in facility is restricted from outsiders and limited only to staff members so that you can be sure that your pet is safe with us. Our facility is monitored 24/7 with smoke and fire detection systems.

Special Activities, Exercise and Companionship for your Dog

Because canines are so social, activity and/or human interaction is key to their well-being – especially while away from home. So we’ve developed discounted activity or interaction packages so you can choose which one is right for your dog.

  • Supervised fun playtimes and activities customized for your pet, including group play
  • Play yards equipped with splash pools, misters, and sprinklers for dogs that like romping in water
  • Opportunities to play and socialize with other dogs SAFELY under well-trained staff supervision

Rave Reviews from Real Clients

I'm so glad that I found Rover Retreat 3 years ago! The staff has been incredible. I'm confident leaving my beloved Chesapeake Bay Retriever "Mildred" in their caring hands for boarding and her once a week day retreat. I would recommend Rover Retreat to anyone looking for boarding or daycare.

We have been customers for more than 10 years. We have always felt that our dog has received excellent care. We particularly love the enhanced day care. We have boarded our dog with them on numerous occasions and knew that our pet was treated very well. We would recommend them enthusiastically.
