ABOUT PUPYARD
Dog Daycare in Southeast Florida
PupYard is a Southeast Florida dog daycare founded by Rochelle Hartley and Connor Vandevender, dog lovers with five years of hands-on national dog breeding experience as part of a 30-year family-run canine enterprise. Our background gives us a deep understanding of dog behavior, safety, and responsible care—knowledge we bring into every day at PupYard.
​
We created PupYard with one simple belief: dogs deserve a daycare environment that feels safe, structured, and genuinely cared for—not chaotic or overcrowded. As dog parents ourselves, we understand the needs of busy pet owners across Southeast Florida who want dependable care they can trust.
THE PUPYARD DIFFERENCE
Home-Style Dog Daycare with a Focus on Quality & Safety
At PupYard, we offer home-style dog daycare in a professional setting, designed to help dogs feel comfortable, confident, and secure. We prioritize quality over quantity through:
Controlled group sizes
Consistent daily routines
Attentive, hands-on supervision
We do not offer overnight boarding or grooming—by design. This allows us to focus exclusively on high-quality daytime dog daycare in Southeast Florida, using a calm, structured approach that supports your dog’s physical and emotional well-being.
OUR APPROACH
Enrichment-Based Play & Certified Care
Our indoor care areas are designed around enrichment and agility-style equipment to support healthy movement, confidence-building play, and mental stimulation. Each day includes:
Enrichment-focused play
Mental stimulation and agility
Structured rest periods
Safety is always our top priority. Both founders are certified in Animal First Aid and CPR, supported by strict sanitation standards and hands-on, attentive supervision
