PlayCare in Glen Park

Small-group, supervised playcare for well-socialized Glen Park dogs. Calm, structured, and run by humans who know every dog in the room.

Why Glen Park dogs love working with Top Dog SF

Glen Park is a village inside a city. Glen Canyon Park's trails, the BART-adjacent village center, and the quiet residential streets around Chenery make it one of the best neighborhoods in San Francisco for an adventure-minded dog.

Glen Park clients tend to live with medium-to-large sporting and herding breeds: Australian shepherds, labs, retriever mixes, and rescue collies. The most common ask is a confident, off-leash-reliable dog who can handle the canyon trails and settle at Destination Baking Company on Sunday.

Canyon trails, village feel, and one of SF's most adventure-ready dog neighborhoods. About 13 minutes to our training facility, and our team has been working with Glen Park dogs since 2004.

Common questions from Glen Park dog owners

Is there small dog daycare near me in Glen Park?

How much does dog daycare cost in Glen Park, San Francisco?
Drop-in playcare is $90 for a full day or $48 for a half day for Glen Park clients, and every new dog starts with a $48 half-day trial so we can evaluate fit. Monthly packages run $550 (2x/week) to $1,100 (5x/week), the PlayCare 10 package is $750, and pricing is identical across every SF neighborhood, with no premiums for Glen Park ZIP codes.
Do you offer daycare pickup and dropoff in Glen Park?
About 13 minutes to our training facility from our Sunset facility. Most Glen Park clients self-drop between 7:30 and 9 am and pick up by 6 pm. Ask us about carpool coordination with other Glen Park families during inquiry.
What kind of dogs come to daycare from Glen Park?
Glen Park playcare regulars are mostly under-25-lb dogs: French bulldogs, dachshunds, cavaliers, mini poodles, toy mixes, and Muttville rescues. Group size is capped at 12, and every dog is matched by temperament and play style before joining an ongoing group.
Is dog daycare good for reactive or anxious Glen Park dogs?
Not every reactive dog is a daycare fit. We evaluate temperament first via a $48 trial day. For dogs with reactivity, resource guarding, or serious anxiety, we usually recommend private training in Glen Park before or instead of daycare, and can refer you to the right program during inquiry.
What are your daycare hours and can I do half days?
PlayCare runs 7:30 am to 6 pm, Monday through Friday. Half days ($48) and full days ($90) are both available for Glen Park clients, and you can mix and match within a PlayCare 10 package.
Do dogs need to be evaluated first?
Always. Every new Glen Park dog starts with a $48 half-day trial so we can confirm temperament, play style, vaccination status, and group fit before booking ongoing days.
