Northridge Playcare & Boarding

Northridge Playcare & Boarding is a dog boarding, daycare, and training facility at 7351 W 33rd Street N in west Wichita, Kansas. Dogs stay in private, climate-controlled suites, and cats board in their own condos. Playcare and boarding share the same facility, so a dog who already comes for daytime play sleeps over in familiar surroundings.

Services

• Overnight boarding in lofts, master suites, and presidential suites
• Cat boarding in dedicated cat condos
• Playcare, the daytime program for dogs
• Obedience training
• Grooming, including an exit bath before pickup

What a stay includes

Play areas are split between an indoor play space and a spacious outdoor one, which helps in a Kansas July or a January cold snap. Evenings slow down. Calming classical music plays, suites get a nightly turn-down, and each dog is offered a bedtime snack, a Kong with peanut butter and a dog biscuit. A belly rub with a lavender ear massage is part of the routine, and dogs head home after an exit bath. Training is available too, so a boarding stay can include obedience work.

Practical details

Reservations are made online. The facility is open 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Friday and 8:00 AM to noon on Saturday. Every dog and cat must be current on vaccinations before arriving. The phone number is 316-677-8107, and booking and service details are at northridgeplayandboard.com.
