FAQ

  • No — West Street Dog welcomes everyone, with or without a pup. Our front bar is open to guests of all ages and their leashed dogs, while our off-leash park and bar are reserved for patrons 21 and older. No dog? Feel free to stop by, grab a drink, and mingle with our four-legged visitors.

  • Download the West St. Dog app, create your profile, and upload (or email) your dog’s vaccination records. In the app, purchase a daily pass on the day you plan to come in or a monthly membership—either ahead of time or when you arrive—and read and sign our general services contract (in the app). Please be sure to read our dog park rules!

  • We cap the number of dogs in the off-leash area based on their size and activity levels. During peak times, you may be asked to wait with your leashed pup in the front bar until a spot opens.

  • We do not allow toys in the off-leash park to ensure all dogs are able to enjoy their time at West Street Dog.

  • The off-leash area is used exclusively for daycare on weekday mornings and afternoons. At close of daycare, dogs are moved to a smaller playroom so our team can clean and set up for bar service. If you’re a park member, you’re welcome to pick up your dog and join the off-leash bar area during park hours.

  • We have no breed restrictions at West Street! All friendly and well-socialized dogs who are fixed (over the age of eight months) and are up to date on our vaccine requirements are welcome.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We have a smaller dog room that we use during the weekdays for daycare, but it is not open during park hours. Smaller dogs usually do just fine in the main dog park, and we have staff members working during dog park hours to ensure all dogs stay safe. We do host “small dog playtime” every other Sunday for pups exclusively 25lbs and under.

  • The off-leash dog park is restricted to humans who are 21+ only, however kids are allowed at our front bar lounge area. We have games, ample seating, and a non-alcoholic menu that they can order from. Plus, they can see into the dog park from the front bar!

  • All dogs must pass a temperament assessment before joining daycare and/or boarding. You can schedule this when you book a full day session in the West St. Dog app (We require the tempermant test to be a full day of daycare). All dogs over eight months must be spayed or neutered. Vaccinations required: Rabies, Distemper/Parvo, and Bordetella (administered within the last six months). We also require proof of a negative fecal exam within the last year. Reservations are required due to limited capacity. Please book via the app in advance.

  • We require that all dogs over eight months of age be spayed or neutered. If you have a female dog that is under eight months of age who has gone into heat, please do not bring her to West Street Dog.

  • We require proof that all dogs who come in for daycare and boarding are up to date on their Rabies, Distemper/Parvo, and 6-month Bordetella vaccines. We also require proof of a negative fecal exam yearly. For the dog park and bar, we require proof of Rabies, Distemper/Parvo, and Bordetella (yearly) vaccines. We do require proof of a negative fecal exam yearly for the dog park. If you are planning to come and have a drink at our bar and keep your dog leashed at the front bar, you do not need to bring proof of any vaccines!

  • After you check your dog out from daycare, you are welcome to enjoy the off-leash park starting at during park hours. Please note that daycare and park access are billed separately.

  • The Bordetella vaccine protects dogs from canine cough. Some vets will administer it every six months, some every year. Since we have a lot of dogs coming and going during daycare and boarding, we require it to be given every six months to make sure all dogs are best protected from the airborne virus. We do sell an intranasal Bordetella vaccine you can administer yourself. For information, shoot us an email or ask an employee when you arrive.

  • We are always accepting resumes, so if you are interested in applying, please email a copy of your resume and fill out an application from our website.

  • We sell pre-packaged snacks. We do not have a kitchen on site, but you are welcome to bring food! You can eat food at the front bar, as well as in the off-leash dog park. Please do not feed any of it to the dogs, even your own.

  • Owners are responsible for supervising and always controlling their dogs. Each dog must have current vaccinations, and owners must promptly clean up any solid waste. Poop bags are provided for you in the park! West Street Dog staff reserves the right to ask you to leash or remove your dog(s) if they are showing inappropriate behavior. We have park attendants staffed to handle turf cleaning and water station refills. We ask that you never leave your dog unattended in the off-leash area.

  • We ask that no treats be brought into the off-leash park. Feeding any of the dogs (including your own) is prohibited. We want to be considerate of all dogs who love to play but may be possessive of food or have food allergies. You can bring food for yourself, but please make sure you do not feed any of the dogs and completely dispose of it when finished.

  • Yes! We have spacious cat condos for our feline friends. Cats must be up to date on their FVRCP and Rabies vaccines. All male cats must be neutered over 6 months of age. The cat area is separate from our dog area, so they have a nice quiet place to rest near our lobby. Come by and see during lobby hours.
