How It Works -- 4 Steps
At LakePAWse, we built something that did not exist here yet: a dog daycare designed specifically around how small dogs actually think, feel, and behave.
Most small dogs are not just miniature versions of big dogs. They have different stress responses, different social needs, and different ways of showing that something is wrong. A chaotic environment that a Lab shrugs off can genuinely overwhelm a Chihuahua or a senior Maltese.
We designed this facility -- the layout, the routine, the environment, the team -- to match how small dogs work. Calm is not our aesthetic. It is our operating system.

01
Create your account
You found us! Now, create an account. We will learn about your dog -- their routine, their quirks, what they love, what stresses them out. This helps us figure out if LakePAWse is the right fit and which CLUB is right for them
02
Schedule a visit
Let’s schedule a Meet & Greet and one Quick PAWse (4 hours). Your dog comes in and meets us and the group one at a time, slowly and safely. We watch how they respond and how the group responds to them. No dog joins the pack without this step.
