Applications, proof of vaccination and pre-boarding interviews are required to guarantee a pleasant stay for all dogs at both locations. Rates for the spacious and mulch-ified indoor and outdoor facilities start at $15 per half day and $22 for full days, and multiple dog households receive a small discount per visit. 923 Clydeville, (210) 404-9941, 7 Commercial Place, Schertz, (210) 566-4222, pawderosaranch.com.

Pool Time at Lucy’s Doggie Daycare

Current readers have voted Lucy’s the Best Place to Board in previous years, and things just got a little bit cooler at the Thousand Oaks location. The addition of a shallow pool in the play area will definitely come in handy during those scorching summer days. Keep the pooches smelling fresh after a dip in the pool with a stop by the self-service dog wash. Prices start at $12 for pups 25 pounds and under and go up to $18 for canines over 100 pounds. 2250 Thousand Oaks, Ste 200; 937 S Laredo, (210) 495-3647, lucysdoggydaycare.com.
