Not Every Dog Needs the Same Day. That’s Why We Offer More Than One.
At Best Friends Fur Ever, we believe every dog deserves care that’s tailored to their personality, age, energy level, and individual needs. That’s why we offer multiple care programs—not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Whether your dog loves social play, prefers one-on-one enrichment, enjoys a quieter pace, or benefits from additional support, we’ll help you find the program where they can thrive.
- Four Personalized Care Programs
Choose the experience that’s right for your dog, including Social Play, Play My Way, Assisted Canine Care (ACC), and Assisted Canine Care Plus (ACC+) at our Cockeysville resort. ACC+ is coming soon to Joppa. - Boarding Designed Around Your Dog
Whether your dog prefers a traditional boarding experience, a quieter crate-free stay in Assisted Canine Care, or an upgraded Lux or Petite Suite, we’ll help you choose accommodations that match their individual needs and comfort level. Lux Suites, Petite Suites, and ACC+ are currently available in Cockeysville and coming soon to Joppa. - Enrichment Beyond Basic Daycare
From puzzles and Sniffaris to one-on-one play, splash days, and cuddle sessions, our enrichment experiences are designed to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged. - Wellness & Comfort Options
Support your dog’s overall well-being with optional wellness services including PEMF Therapy, Red Light Therapy, calming chews, ThunderShirts®, and other comfort-focused enhancements designed to help dogs relax, recover, and feel their best. - Safety You Can Trust
Our PACCC & IBPSA Certified team members provide care in climate-controlled resorts equipped with PetAirapy® air purification systems, backup generators, and 24/7 onsite supervision, 365 days a year. - Stay Connected
Watch your dog during Social Play through our live webcams, and receive personalized report cards. Play My Way, Assisted Canine Care, and ACC+ guests receive detailed daily updates with photos and observations about behavior, enrichment activities, appetite, water intake, bathroom habits, mobility, and overall well-being. - Everything Your Dog Needs in One Place
Daycare, boarding, bathing, grooming, enrichment, and specialized care—all under one roof.
Every new pup receives a social assessment on their first day and is then placed into the program best suited for their unique needs.
A temperament test is not required for our Play My Way program – only reservations and required vaccines are needed prior to your pup’s stay with us.
Playgroups are customized by size, play style, and temperament to optimize every dog’s socialization experience, safety, and fun.
Dogs that participate in group play benefit from a purposeful play model that caters to their natural rhythm and maximizes their health.
We offer individual enrichment and one on one sessions to exercise your pup’s mental and emotional stimulation.
We offer an Assisted Canine Care Program where we care for elderly and special needs dogs. Learn More
Play My Way offers dog care tailored to every personality and playstyle—because no dog should spend the day waiting for a walk.
From enrichment games to fungility courses, small group play, or one-on-one time, our expert handlers create the perfect day for your pup. Unaltered pets welcome.
We have spacious outdoor play yards for the dogs to run around and relieve themselves, as well as large indoor play areas during inclement weather.
We have at least one member of management onsite 24/7, 365 days a year, so boarders always have an overnight shift manager taking care of them.
You can watch your pup on our live webcams, and you’ll receive report cards with pictures and updates on how your pup is doing.
Our staff are trained to perform CPR and recognize other medical issues, as well as give any type of medicine; including insulin.
