Boarding
A collage featuring dogs enjoying indoor/outdoor daycare at Lacey & Foxy's Playground in Red Deer, Alberta. Our spacious, climate-controlled indoor play areas provide supervised socialization, enrichment, rest, and safe play for dogs of all sizes throughout the year.

Whether your dog is staying overnight or for an extended visit, we’re here to make boarding feel like a comfy, cozy, fun-filled stay where they can play, relax, and make friends all day.

We know every dog adjusts differently to being away from home, so we focus on creating a calm, structured environment where they can settle in at their own pace.

Dogs staying with us continue to enjoy supervised playtime, social interaction, rest breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. For dogs who need a little extra time to adjust, we work patiently to help them feel secure and comfortable during their stay.

What Your Dog's Stay Looks Like

Monday through Friday, boarding dogs join our daycare group, where they spend their day socializing, playing, exploring, making new friends, and enjoying both our indoor and outdoor play areas. It’s a fun, enriching environment that helps keep dogs active, engaged, and feeling at home during their stay.

Weather permitting, dogs may enjoy access to our large outdoor swimming pool with easy-entry stairs, along with two smaller lounging pools to cool off and relax on warm days. Outdoor play and pool time may be adjusted during periods of extreme heat or cold to ensure the safety and comfort of every dog.

Fresh water is always available throughout the day, and every dog receives plenty of love, attention, cuddles, and one-on-one interaction from our caring team.

Dogs who bring their own meals are fed individually in their own kennels to ensure a calm, stress-free mealtime. After eating, they rest for approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on their size, to support healthy digestion and help reduce the risk of bloat.

Throughout the day, all dogs enjoy scheduled rest breaks in their individual kennels with access to fresh water. These quiet periods help prevent overexertion, reduce overstimulation, encourage relaxation, and allow dogs to recharge before returning to play with their friends.
