Social Pawz – Who Says Your Pet Can’t Take a Vacation?

Sometimes you need to be away from your furry friend for a few hours. Sometimes it’s a few days. And sometimes you simply look at your dog’s face and think, you deserve a fun day. 

Whether your dog needs a place to spend the day while you’re busy, could use some extra exercise and social time, or needs somewhere to stay while you head out of town, Social Pawz offers options for everything from a few hours of fun to an extended stay. 

At Social Pawz, dogs can spend their day enjoying supervised play in climate-controlled indoor areas and outdoor play spaces. Before joining the group, dogs go through a temperament test to help determine the right play environment, and they are matched with appropriate playmates. 

Of course, we can’t talk about daycare without mentioning the pool. While you’re sitting in a work meeting, your dog may be taking a dip. Between running, playing, socializing and cooling off in the water, there’s plenty to keep tails moving. By pickup time, you may both be ready for the couch, although your dog will probably have better stories. 

With a pool, playtime and plenty of four-legged friends, your dog may start wondering why you don’t let them paw-ty more often. 

In addition to giving dogs a day filled with fun and play, Social Pawz provides boarding for those times when your plans mean being away overnight, for the weekend or for an extended vacation. Dogs staying overnight get to participate in daycare during the day before settling into their own sleeping space at night. Social Pawz can accommodate individual feeding schedules and medications, and dogs from the same family can stay together. 

Of course, the dogs don’t get exclusive rights to the Social Pawz guest list. Cats are welcome for boarding, too, with their own separate area away from the canine crowd and one-on-one attention from staff. 

Social Pawz has been part of Fort Lauderdale’s pet community since 2015. Now under new ownership, the team is building on a reputation that has already earned Social Pawz 4.7 out of 5 stars on Google, while bringing fresh ideas and additional services to pets and their people. The new owners say they’re looking forward to carrying on the Social Pawz legacy, with a continued focus on the care and compassion that goes into making each visit an enjoyable one for the pets who come to play or stay. 

Getting there is about to get easier, too. The Social Pawz Bus is scheduled to begin service on or before October 1st, 2026, offering one-way and round-trip transportation. Whether you need a regular ride for your pup or find yourself in a pinch, it’s one less thing to juggle. Soon, your dog may have a better commute than you do. 

New customers also have a pretty good reason to give daycare a try. Social Pawz is currently offering unlimited daycare for $99 for the first month. That’s a lot of opportunities to play, socialize and burn off some puppy energy. 

Social Pawz also offers full-service grooming and training, giving pet parents the convenience of checking a few things off their pet-care list in one place. A day of playing followed by a fresh groom? That’s one pampered pooch. 

Whether you need someone to care for your pet for the day or a place for them to stay while you’re away, Social Pawz makes daycare and boarding an easy and convenient option, with plenty of care, attention and fun along the way.
