Frequently Asked Questions
Noble Dog is not your traditional boarding kennel. We are a locally owned company, not a franchise. We have someone onsite 24 hours a day, so your dog is always under our watchful care. Dogs stay in their private suites, not kennels. Each suite includes a private webcam so you can check on your dog day or night. We offer multiple suite levels from Luxury Suite to our Pawsidential Suite. We have no breed restrictions or age restrictions. Customers earn loyalty points through our Paw Points program to use on future services. Our entire staff is trained in Pet First Aid and prepared to provide the best care for you pup.
All guests must be up to date on Rabies, Distemper and Bordetella. 1 or 3 year Rabies or Distemper is acceptable and 6 month or 1 year Bordetella, whichever your vet recommends.

No. Our team cares for your dog 24/7.
Group play is where the dogs get to socialize together in our fitness center or green room. All group play is monitored by staff at all times. We divide groups based on energy, size and temperament. Groups could shift throughout the day depending on the chemistry of the group.
We offer daycare packages. They are good from 1 year from purchase, non-refundable and non-transferable.
Group play does come with risks that you should know about. After all, dogs are animals and have very powerful jaws and teeth. Our staff is trained to monitor the play yards and observe the body language and behavior of the dogs. However there is still the risk of a dog snapping or getting into a fight with another dog. We do see very few minor injuries but they do happen. We will notify parents as soon as possible to discuss the situation and should a dog need medical care we will get them to the vet ASAP. Our assessments of each dog are ongoing and can change from time to time depending on the behavior.
We classify each dog as either full group, limited group, or no group.
Full group means they mind their manners and are good at self regulating.
Limited group could be an older dog that needs breaks, a younger dog that doesn’t know when to take a nap, or gets a little overzealous and needs some breaks. Essentially limited group dogs will receive breaks throughout the day.
No group is dog that is not permitted into group either due to medical reasons or behavioral.
Some dogs may experience seperation anxiety from their family for a day or two. This can lead to loss of appetite or abnormal stool. We do monitor these situations and have some special tricks to encourage eating.
As in any group enviroment dogs are also susceptible to picking up illnesses whether its a stomach bug or a respiratory illness. Our staff works hard to keep a clean environment however some illnesses are hard to prevent when the dogs are in close contact with one another. Younger, older and dogs that come less frequent tend to have the weakest immunity. We assure you we do everything we can to send every dog home happy and healthy.
After a unanimous vote from the dogs, no, we do not take cats.
