We also offer Medicated Dog Shampoo Baths for pets with sensitive skin or allergies, and Dog Hand Stripping Services for wire-coated breeds to maintain their coat’s natural texture and color.

Dog Day Care Services You’ll Love in West Seattle
At DogCity West Seattle, we make dog daycare more than just a place to drop off your pup—we make it a second home. Our Dog Day Care Services are designed to provide your dog with safe socialization, supervised play, and structured routines that keep tails wagging all day long.
Our most popular option is the Full Day Dog Daycare, perfect for busy pet parents who want their dogs to stay active and engaged from morning to evening. Dogs enjoy supervised group play, nap breaks, and tons of mental stimulation in a clean, secure environment.
For shorter stays, our Half Day Dog Daycare option provides up to five hours of play—ideal for mid-day energy burns or introverted dogs who prefer smaller windows of activity.
Looking for a little more action? Our Slatmill Dog Exercise Sessions are a great add-on for high-energy pups. This supervised treadmill-style workout gives your dog a safe, focused way to burn energy and stay fit. It's perfect for breeds that need extra physical stimulation.
We also offer Enrichment Play Sessions, which tap into your dog’s natural instincts through puzzles, scent games, and cognitive challenges. These sessions are ideal for curious, smart dogs who thrive on problem-solving and interaction beyond physical play.
Before any dog joins our daycare program, we require a Dog Temperament Test. This 2–3 hour evaluation ensures your pup is comfortable with group play, social settings, and our trained staff. It’s our way of making sure every dog at DogCity is set up for a safe, positive experience.
Our team is professionally trained to supervise play, manage behavior, and foster a fun, respectful group dynamic. We tailor each dog’s day to their energy level, age, and social style, creating an environment that’s both stimulating and safe.
Located in the heart of West Seattle, DogCity is proud to be the trusted neighborhood spot for personalized, professional dog daycare. Whether your pup is full of energy or prefers a slower pace, we have the right setting for them to thrive.

We provide a warm, kennel-free environment where your dog can relax, sleep comfortably, and be cared for like family. With 24/7 supervision and cozy bedding, our overnight stays are perfect for dogs who thrive in a social, low-stress setting.
Our Cozy Overnight Dog Boarding service is available exclusively to dogs who are active participants in our daycare program. This ensures your pup is already familiar with our space, staff, and routines, making for a smooth and stress-free transition from day to night. Each evening includes dinner, downtime, cuddles, and restful sleep in a comfortable group setting.
For dogs who need a bit more activity before bedtime, we offer Boarding Slatmill Workouts as an optional add-on. These structured treadmill-style sessions are perfect for high-energy breeds that benefit from a focused workout to help them settle in for the night.
Mental stimulation is just as important as physical activity, which is why we also offer Boarding Enrichment Time. These guided sessions include interactive puzzles, scent games, and sensory activities that keep your pup’s brain engaged—even while away from home.
Before your dog’s first boarding stay, we conduct aBoarding Temperament Check—a short evaluation that ensures your dog is comfortable in group settings and responds well to our team. This is a crucial step for maintaining a safe, positive environment for all dogs in our care.
Throughout their stay, your dog will enjoy familiar routines, clean surroundings, and caring staff who treat every pet like their own. We also accommodate special requests, including administering oral medications, to make your dog’s experience as comfortable as possible.
