WAIT!? You can't bring your dog on the beach? (CAN YOU HELP?!)

You are not alone my friend…We are here to help and unfortunately, dogs during peak season (Memorial Day to Labor Day) are not allowed on the beach from 9:30AM-5:30PM 🙁

We got you covered 💪. Give us a call/text and we can watch your pup while you soak up the sun.  🏖️ We will do our best to fit you in so bare with us but we love all the summer pups we get to meet & watch (Checkout our Facebook 😊)

Can I book services same-day?

We prefer 24-hour notice, but same-day bookings are often available—just give us a call/text! 

Also can book directly above or HERE

Do you offer Meet&Greet?

We do! At no charge. Ahead of reserving any home pet-sitting service we’ll coordinate a team member to meet you and your fur friend at your house ahead of any scheduling or booking.

For Daycare you’re welcome to come visit our facility as well, just give us a call/text to coordinate a meeting.

GROOMING: How do I book a groom?

Can book REQUEST DIRECTLY HERE  🐶✂️🛁

For Cash Discount, please text (302)988-4186 after you made a pet profile w/ info and we’ll get you scheduled quickly!

GROOMING: What is an After-Beach Bath?

We know how sandy the beaches can be, so we offer a nice quick After-Beach Bath service for your pups after a long day of play in our commercial grooming tubs.  Your doggie won’t want to leave!

BOARDING: What items should I bring for my dog?

Please bring your dog’s food, bedding, blanket, treats, and a favorite toy or two. 

Please bring their same food, so your dog can stay on the same diet. PLEASE DO NOT change up the diet before their stay with us. We have House Food that will be charged $5/Day if food is forgotten.

We have plenty of bedding and cots that we provide our doggies, but if you’d like can bring their bedding and we will ensure the suite is prepared properly for their stay with a goodnight treat 🦴 on-top of their pillow and all 🙂

WATER BOWLS / FOOD BOWLS – We provide all clean food and water bowls. Can leave yours at home and we will provide.

Lastly, for new clients, please bring an old t-shirt or something that has your scent on it that can go in the suite with your dog.  It helps with anxiety from being away for the first night.

 

*We are not responsible for any personal property that is lost, chewed, or damaged during your pet’s stay.

BOARDING: How big is their suite? Will they be alone?

We operate as a Pet Boutique Hotel & Spa, so our luxurious large wooden suites provide plenty of space for dogs of all sizes with our largest suite (El Presidential) comfortably accommodating large pet families. Yes, we have a couple of clients that have 4 dogs that we host all together ;).  Each dog gets their own suite.  Siblings and families can stay together in the larger suite, but we DO NOT MIX non family member dogs overnight.

Our facility location is unbeatable but we are not a massive facility and never want to loose our quality of service, by not focusing on the dogs we care for.

We find the team is able to provide better care and one-on-one attention to all the pups through staying as a local boutique pet hotel & spa facility and we plan to keep this promise to all the beach goers and regular fur babies we proudly serve/care for here at the DE Beaches 🐾❤️🐾

Hotel Dog Walking (BEACH BUTLER🦮) Program - What is it?

We have partnerships with local hotels for our trusted team of pet professionals to provide dog walks for the dog’s staying in the hotel rooms while owners are gone and enjoying the beach.

We have two time slots (12PM-2PM) & (6-8PM)

To Inquire, please fill out the form or speak with front-desk and they will inform of the process.

Late Dog Daycare Pick-up? (Dewey Dog Dinner Club 🍖)

SUMMER ONLY!  Dog Parents should get to enjoy🍹 Happy Hour 🍹 and all the amazing restaurants we have here at the beach:) ☀️

Don’t make your dog watch the waves from the window…🥺

We offer the Dewey Dog Dinner Club 🍖 from 5:30PM – 8:30PM, where you can drop your dog off to relax and be watched over while you get an Orange Crush at the Starboard!

Reservations Encouraged 😉

Can I get a quote for services?

Absolutely. You can visit our BOOKING SYSTEM and it will give you pricing as you enter in details about your pet. Or Call or Text anytime! For Cash Discount, please create pet profile and then txt/call to confirm.

(302)988-4186

Will my dog be with other dogs? / Can they be alone?

If your dog is friendly we can absolutely put them in daycare for fun and socialization during the day. Our facility is limited in space so we can only take a limited amount of daycare dogs, which allows for more staff interaction and play. 

We have separate areas for the dogs and match them up by size and temperament. If a dog needs to be by themselves or a cool off period from playing, we have accommodations for that as well.

Can I bring my dog for daycare while I check in to my rental?

Of Course! We have our Rental Check-in Express Day Care, where you can drop your dogs off for a short period of time, while you get checked into your vacation rental/home and then scoop them up.  We are right in the heart of Dewey Beach, DE off of Rte 1, so an easy stop while on your way to start your vacation 🏝️

If you are staying at or have a “late check-in” for a hotel, Airbnb, or Rental Vacation Home, we can help to provide care for you pup while you check-in and get unpacked / settled.

Your dog gets a couple hours of relaxation and once you are all checked-in, come on by and can scoop on up your lil one 🐶

Are you licensed and insured?

We are a team or dedicated animal lovers and ensure all team members are properly trained and vetted to care for any animals under our watch. We are fully licensed and insured through Pet Sitter Associates,  so you can feel confident and secure leaving your pet in our care.

Are you Hiring?

Yes! Please send your resume to:  junglejimsdewey@gmail.com

We are always on the lookout for great talent and currently hiring groomers, store associates, dog walkers, and people interested in joining our house sitting division that will adhere to our multi-step background screening process.

Thanks and we try our best to get back to everyone.
