Companion Pet Lodge

Companion Pet Lodge is a dog daycare, boarding, and spa facility in Waterford Township, Michigan, with 24/7 staffing, webcams for owner check-ins, and private boarding rooms. Guest reviews at 4.9 stars across 119 ratings frequently mention the facility's cleanliness, the friendly and attentive staff, and the reassurance the webcams provide — several reviewers describe checking in on their dogs throughout the day and seeing them happy and engaged. Staff model. The facility is staffed around the clock, with staff-to-dog ratios limited to ensure safe, supervised play. All new dogs must complete a meet-and-greet before their first daycare or boarding stay. The facility enforces a spay/neuter requirement for all dogs. Per a Waterford Township ordinance, Pit Bull Terriers cannot be accepted. The facility operates Monday through Friday 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, Saturday 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, and Sunday by appointment only. Daily routine. Daycare dogs engage in supervised group play in a climate-controlled facility with a high-end HVAC system that brings in fresh outside air. Boarding dogs have private rooms with beds and blankets provided; owners may bring blankets or toys from home, which stay in the dog's personal kennel. House food is available at $1 per meal, though owners are encouraged to bring their dog's regular food. Add-on services include bathing and spa treatments. Intake. Required vaccinations are Bordetella, distemper, and rabies. A meet-and-greet is required for all new dogs prior to daycare or boarding. Boarding cancellations with less than seven days' notice incur a one-night charge; less than 48 hours' notice incurs 50% of the total reservation. Who it suits and doesn't. A strong fit for owners who value the ability to check in remotely — the webcam system and 24/7 staffing address two of the most common boarding anxieties directly. The private room model suits dogs who benefit from their own space between play sessions. Less suited to intact dogs, given the spay/neuter requirement, or to households with Pit Bull Terriers due to the local ordinance.
