Daycare
(Day School)
Our boutique Enrichment Day School provides a safe, clean, structured environment where dogs can socialize, learn, explore, and thrive through balanced mental and physical enrichment.
Unlike traditional daycare, we accept only a limited number of dogs who have successfully completed our assessment process, allowing us to provide a more personalized experience and maintain a calm, balanced environment.
Your dog’s day may include structured socialization, enrichment activities, outdoor sniff walks, relaxation time, and life skills training designed to build confidence, manners, and emotional wellness.
Our experienced team is dedicated to enriching lives at both ends of the leash through compassionate, science-based care and training.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING…
“Our 2 1/2 year old cockapoo, Kelsey, has been attending classes and small dog play dates at Muttz with Mannerz since she was 10 weeks old. Corey has a very energetic and enthusiastic approach and it is clear how much she LOVES dogs! She provides encouragement through positive reinforcement and most importantly keeps it FUN. Although Kelsey is a bit timid by nature, she can’t wait to get to her play dates every week.Thanks, Corey……highly recommend!!” – Debbie G
“We have worked with Corey and the team at Muttz with Mannerz over the years with a couple of our dogs and they have consistently demonstrated their wealth of knowledge (and patience) when it comes to training. Our current dog is a rescue and needed a lot of work – through the private training and now the “fun with agility class”, we’re well on our way to have a great family pet. Our kids love to get involved with the training too and it’s a great opportunity for them to learn how to care for a pet, while having some fun along the way!Our family would highly recommend Muttz with Mannerz.” – Kelly Bell
“Corey is a well-known and skilled dog trainer who has a passion for dogs. We have participated in puppy, obedience and agility training classes for Bella from five months of age to present (she is five and a half now.) We take Bella to Play Dates one hour, three times a week. These Play Dates provide socializing between dogs and owners as well as between all owners who must be in control of their dogs. Since I have severe back issues, Corey provides assistance for me. Her new facility allows for indoor play when the weather is inclement.I don’t know how we could do this without her.” – Merv Ellert
“Both my children have attended the Kids & K9 Camp at Muttz with Mannerz for a few years now with both of our dogs. Corey knows how to keep children and dogs engaged and to make every session so much fun while learning lots! The children learned how to communicate with their dog and teach them basic commands and agility with positive reinforcement. They also learned about bite prevention and attended a teeth cleaning procedure at the veterinarian. Corey has a wonderful energy when engaging with dogs and humans.We highly recommend Muttz with Mannerz!” – Solly V
“I have been taking my rescue dog, Marko, to Muttz with Mannerz play dates for over 6 months now. Like many dogs in a new situation, he started out very timid but in a very short time (after 1 or 2 sessions), he came out of shell and started playing with other dogs. The play area is secure and supervised by experienced trainers which gives me confidence that he can play and socialize in a safe environment. The trainers, Corey and Barb are very knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend Muttz with Mannerz play dates for anyone looking to provide a safe environment for their dogs to play.”– Katy Chan
“Muttz with Mannerz has a great team, they are well-educated, and passionate about the dogs having a positive experience. Also a priority for them is to have a safe environment for the dogs to play. I have a Golden Retriever pup and she just can’t wait to get out of the car. For new dog owners they provide a lot of articles on crate training, behavioral issues , teeth cleaning etc.”– Lesley Lownds (Sadie)
