Dog Boarding & Day Care

We are proud to offer loving, kennel-free dog boarding and doggy day care services for your fur baby.

Our Kennel-Free Boarding & Daycare Facility

Your dog will enjoy a day (or more) at our facility nestled in the Green River Gorge area of Auburn, Washington. Dogs love running and playing under old growth cedar trees and hiking on private trails. And this provides your dog with exercise, socialization and intellectual stimulation. This is so important to a happy, healthy, well-balanced pooch.

Large fenced areas provide a safe and spacious place for dogs to play and interact. For those seeking more adventure, trail hikes are an option. And our indoor daycare room is the perfect place to take a breather or dry off on a rainy day.

A day at Creekside Critter Care Boarding / Daycare is the perfect way to entertain and exercise your dog while you are at work or out of town. A tired dog is a good dog and that makes everyone happy.
