Doggie Daycare & More

What Doggie Daycare & More does

Doggie Daycare & More (legal name "Doggie Daycare...And More") operates a single cage-free pet care facility at 1557 Placentia Avenue, Newport Beach, California, serving individual dog owners across Orange County including Costa Mesa, Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Corona Del Mar, and Irvine. The business is privately held and independently owned, with no parent company, institutional investors, or franchised locations disclosed.

The company runs a stacked service model anchored on cage-free daycare and overnight "slumber party" boarding, where staff are on-site 24/7 and sleep with the dogs on beds and cots. The facility includes three segregated play areas — Surf (active big dogs), Balboa (small dogs), and Sailing Room (mixed groups) — built for safety, climate control, and hourly water bowl sanitation. A live web camera system allows owners to monitor pets remotely. Layered services include professional grooming, dog training (leash, puppy manners, day training), field-trip dog walks, a Doggie Bus pick-up/drop-off service, one-on-one staff time, staff baths, and on-site adoption events in partnership with local rescues.

The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer with bookings handled via phone (949-722-9663), email, and an initial in-person meet-and-greet appointment. Pricing combines pay-as-you-go unit rates (half-day daycare $37, full-day $55, boarding $25/night first dog), non-expiring multi-visit packages (10/20/30-day packs), and premium VIP monthly subscriptions ($875-$1,000) requiring a three-month minimum commitment. The multi-service, high-touch positioning targets affluent suburban pet owners willing to pay a premium for cage-free, supervised, camera-verified care.
