Hershey's Howliday Inn is thrilled to be a prime option for your dog's socialization, vacation, or sleep-over needs!
We utilize a "free-play" style model of dog daycare and boarding, where dogs are outside in carefully monitored group play for the majority of the day with a few meal and rest breaks. This ensures our clients get the most out of each day and that daycare dogs go home dog-tired!
For those pets that may benefit from a less social approach, don't worry! One-on-one or sibling-group-only play is also an option. Our employees do their best to ensure each client's needs get met during their stay. We treat them as our own, with the best care we can give.
Daycare is exactly what it sounds like. This is the option to drop off a dog in the morning or afternoon and pick them up the same day in the evening. This gives your pup a chance to socialize and burn off excess energy, so you can pick them up and enjoy a calm evening together.
Daycare dogs benefit from all-day play and constant interaction with both the dogs and staff, so you don't have to leave them home alone while you are running errands or at work.
Dog boarding is like a vacation for your furry friend! When you must be away from home, our boarding services ensure your dog receives the best care possible. At our facility, dogs enjoy a comfortable, safe, and fun environment where they can play, relax, and make new friends. Whether this is just for an overnight or a long-term vacation.
Each boarding dog has their own space when staying with us, with stainless steel water and food bowls and a raised cot bed. The dogs boarding with us, like our daycare dogs, benefit from all-day playtime with a noon rest break. Each dog also receives two daily meals (unless requested otherwise) with treats scattered throughout the day, so long as there are no requested feeding restrictions.

Dogs that come to Hershey's Howliday Inn for boarding or daycare are required to have their updated vaccines and a record of them. This ensures the health and safety of each of our guests.
