Northern VA Dog Daycare Party Inside, Potty Outside!

Doggy Daycare: Socialize in Safety at Healthy Hound!

Having your dog attend an award-winning doggie daycare has never been easier! Centrally located on the border of Herndon & Sterling, VA, and a hop away from Reston & Ashburn, sits Northern VA’s Healthy Hound Playground - a 100% cage-free dog daycare where your pup is paired with dogs of similar activity level and size. Our playrooms are always supervised with attendants that have had the benefit of training with a 20 year dog daycare veteran.

Daycare is one of the best ways for your pup to learn positive socialization behavior, get much needed exercise, as well as have companionship and stimulation during the day. Healthy Hound welcomes dogs of all ages and activity levels. For added convenience, we also offer professional dog grooming and overnight dog boarding.Β Join us today for fellowship and friends at Healthy Hound Playground.

Pack Introductions & Evaluations

At Healthy Hound, your dog’s playgroup introduction/evaluation will be on their first day of daycare, and there is no extra charge for this service. (Sterling location new clients are required to make an appointment for your dog to be introduced into our pack.)Β 

After you drop off your dog for their first day, we will introduce them into the playroom as soon as we are able.Β We stagger times for introductions so that we may give each dog the attention they deserve, to provide them the best chance of being successful at our facility.

A trained staff member will gradually integrate your dog with the appropriate pack. There is not a standard duration for an introduction – some dogs take only a few minutes, while others can take longer. After the introduction has occurred, and your pup has been given some time to adjust, you will receive a call from the supervisor to advise you on how things went. To ensure the playroom stays as calm as possible, we do not allow parents to view the integration process.

We look forward to getting to know your dog!
