Dog Daycare · Formerly Whispering Pines Pet Resort

Dog Daycare Near Boulder & Longmont

Room to rest. Play that fits. People who pay attention. At Canine Country, we consider the whole dog, not just how to keep them busy. Our care approach brings together everyday comfort, thoughtful activity and services that support different needs.

What a Daycare Day Looks Like

Arrive & Settle

We give your dog time to get comfortable and pay attention to their energy, confidence and readiness to play.

Play That Fits

Dogs join a compatible group or enjoy individual yard time. We watch how they interact and adjust when something isn’t working.

Take a Break

Rest is part of the day, not an afterthought. Dogs have time to settle, drink water and recharge between activities.

More Outdoor Time

Afternoon activity depends on your dog’s comfort and energy. Add a one-on-one enrichment session or ask about a bath before pickup.

Outdoor Dog Daycare with Playgroups that Fits

Our 12-acre country property has 18 play yards, giving us room to build different groups instead of asking every dog to fit into the same one.

We look beyond big dogs and small dogs. Age, energy, temperament and play style matter, too. As we learn your dog, we adjust their group, pace and activity to help them feel comfortable.

  • Groups matched by size, energy, and play style
  • Higher-energy and calmer play options
  • Individual yard time for dogs who prefer their own space
  • Rest breaks and fresh water
  • Outdoor activity adjusted for weather and comfort
  • A team that pays attention when something changes

Social Butterfly or Solo Camper?

Some dogs love a lively group. Others prefer a few compatible friends or their own space. Our Solo Campers enjoy individual yard time, play and attention without the pressure of group play. We don’t force introductions or keep a dog in a group that isn’t working.

New, nervous or dog-reactive dog? Talk with us before booking so we can discuss their needs and whether our setup is a good fit.

Safety comes first. We don’t accept new dogs with human-directed aggression.
