Day Care Booking
The online booking below is a reservation request and will be reviewed by a Wagmore team member. Only registered guests that have passed a behavior evaluation may make online bookings.
All bookings are pending until we receive proof of valid Bordetella, Rabies, and Distemper vaccines. We will not accept or make any reservations without vaccination records on file.
Please be aware that Wagmore is the “social place” for your dog. Dogs that are reactive to either people or other dogs are not a good fit at Wagmore. Dogs that have not been well socialized previously are also not a good fit for daycare as we are not a training facility.
Our booking program does NOT automatically show when we are fully booked…it is done manually, and you will be notified if we need to decline your booking request due to availability.



Working Hours

Updated vaccinations is YOUR responsibility, as the pet owner, to make sure we have updated ones on file. ALL dogs not living in Vermont year round are required to have Canine Influenza in addition to our other required vaccinations.

All vaccinations must be administered at least 2 weeks prior to your booking. For the safety of all Wagmore dogs, we reserve the right to cancel bookings on the day of check-in due to out-of-date vaccines.
As Wagmore is an off-leash, open-play environment, we require a behavior evaluation for all new Wagmore dogs to ensure a friendly, playful demeanor and ensure the safety of all Wagmore dogs. Most dogs pass with flying colors! Dogs with signs of aggression, dogs who bark excessively, or who have severe separation anxiety will not be admitted. Evaluations are done on the first day of daycare or on the first day of boarding.
Yes, reservations are required. You can reserve your space via phone (802-856-7522), email (wagmorekennelsvt@gmail.com) or using our online booking widget at the top of this page. Please note we require 24 hour cancellation notice. No call or no show for daycare is subject to the daily rate as we fill quickly and often have a waiting list. If your pup is not comfortable and does not pass the behavioral evaluation, you are still responsible for the days charge. If you fail to pick up your dog, you will incur additional charges for boarding and for feeding
Just your dog and his/her vaccination records! We supply treats, water and friends for your dog to play with. Please make sure you feed your dog breakfast at least 90 minutes before you come for daycare to ensure they have digested fully and reduce the chance of bloat.
Yes, for the safety of all Wagmore dogs, we require all dogs to be spayed or neutered. Intact dogs will often be singled out and picked on by dominant male and female dogs and a female may release pheromones when coming into heat that would cause conflict. To keep our play calm and fun and provide a happy and non-competitive environment, we cannot accept intact dogs.
We believe proper socialization with dogs is key for a puppy’s upbringing! Puppies 6 months old or older, spayed/neutered and up to date with Bordetella, Distemper, and Rabies vaccinations, and are friendly with other dogs are welcome at Wagmore.
Daycare is $30 per dog per day during the week, $40.00 on weekends. If you have two dogs in your family and bring them both, daycare is $55.00 total during the week, and $75.00 on weekends.
We require 24-hour notice for daycare and boarding cancellations. Holiday period boarding bookings require a 50% non-refundable deposit. Cancellations made during this time period are responsible for the payment of the full daycare amount (for daycare cancellations) or one night of boarding (for boarding cancellations). Holiday periods are November 28-December 1, December 24-January 1, January 18-20, February 15-17, July 2-5.
Payment must be made prior to or at time of check-in. You may pay via the email confirmation online or with cash or credit card upon arrival.
