Best Friends Fur EverSM specializes in caring for special needs guests, including geriatrics, post-surgical, and visually or physically impaired dogs.
We understand that not all dogs are the same and not all daycare and boarding services are appropriate for aging, recovering, or handicapped pets. Best Friends Fur EverSM has come up with a solution to keep your mind at ease and your special pet comfortable and stress-free.
We have designated Daycare and Boarding areas for our special needs and elderly guests. Our Assisted Canine Care (ACC) pets enjoy a calm environment with extra bedding, soft music by Zoundz Music for Pets, and a spacious crate-free area. A full-time attendant is assigned to our ACC pets to ensure they are comfortable, less stressed, and that all their needs are being met. We do our best to follow the same routine as you do in your home or as your veterinarian prescribes. Our staff is trained to give any type of medicine, including insulin, and can cater to any type of special diet.
Assisted Canine CareSM is available at both Joppa & Cockeysville locations.
Best Friends Fur Ever welcomes dogs who are recovering from a recent surgery and need daycare or boarding. We will provide special attention to them and cater to any medication schedules or exercise needed, as well as ensure they are resting comfortably in our calm ACC area.
Senior dogs require special attention and routines. At Best Friends Fur Ever, we will give your senior pup the same tender loving care they receive in your home, as well as maintain their routine to keep them stress-free. We’ll follow any dietary or medication schedule you follow at home.
We understand that some dogs have unique and special needs. We work hard to be part of your team working towards a healthy pet, and we believe that our job is to support and care for the pet owner in addition to the pet. We are experienced in providing care for dogs who are faced with challenges such as:
I love Best Friends Fur Ever. Jessica is outstanding and so helpful.
She took the time to train us as well as our Dog Madeline. She made the training fun and Madeline loved it. Everyone was wonderful. Thank you again Madeline gets so excited for Doggy Day Care. It wears her out and she gets to meet new fur friends. Thank you again Greg and Joel

The folks here are so nice. My dog Rocky acclimated in about 5 days… He is so happy here now. I’ve never seen anyone say a cross word to anyone or any animal. These folks are more than professional – they love dogs and it really shows.
