What if I am not home?
That’s perfectly fine! Many of our clients provide us with access codes or keys to ensure a smooth and secure process. We will work with you to discuss safe entry options for your dog’s first pick-up, allowing us to securely attach a lead before bringing them outside to the bus.
On the first day, we recommend being home to go over the entry instructions with the driver, ensuring everyone is on the same page. After that initial day, you do not need to be present for pick-ups or drop-offs. For your dog’s safety, it is essential that they are secured inside your home upon drop-off. Please note that we will not leave a dog unattended in a yard, as we always prioritize their well-being and security.
What are the pick-up and drop-off times?
Pick-up and drop-off services are available Monday through Friday, with the following time windows:
- Pick-up: Between 8:00 AM and 9:30 AM
- Drop-off: Between 3:30 PM and 5:00 PM
Please note that due to factors such as traffic and unexpected route changes, we are unable to provide an exact arrival time for your dog’s pick-up or drop-off. Instead, we will give you a designated time window to expect our arrival. To keep you informed, you will receive a text notification from our driver when they are approaching your home. This way, you can be prepared for your dog’s arrival or departure.
Do you offer bus service on the weekends?
Currently, we do not provide our bus service on Saturdays and Sundays. We believe that weekends are a valuable time for our bus daycare dogs (and our bus drivers!) to recharge and relax, so they are ready to play and have fun during the week! By allowing our bus dogs some much needed downtime, we ensure they come back refreshed and energized for their weekday adventures.
