A Safe, Structured, and Fun Day for Every Dog

At Sam’s Green Paw in Studio City, CA, our daycare program is designed to give your dog the perfect balance of play, socialization, and rest, all in a safe, fully supervised environment.


Whether you have a high energy puppy or a calm, easygoing senior, we create an experience tailored to your dog’s personality so they can truly thrive.


Our Facility

We offer two spacious daycare rooms, each just over 1,000 square feet, thoughtfully designed to provide a safe and engaging space for every dog.

  • Separate areas for different sizes and temperaments
  • Structured, supervised group play
  • Clean, secure indoor environment


Our facility is fully indoors and climate controlled, keeping your dog cool during those Southern California summers and comfortable during the cooler months.


Pets may have indoor potty breaks as needed. To maintain a clean and healthy environment, we perform deep sanitation of all areas three times daily, including between shifts. 


No matter the weather, your pup is safe, comfortable, and cared for. Contact us today to reserve your pup's spot!

    We focus on creating a positive, balanced day so your dog leaves happy, fulfilled, and excited to return.

  • Getting Started: The Evaluation Process

    Every dog’s daycare journey begins with a scheduled evaluation.


    Evaluations are conducted by appointment and handled by one of our experienced managers to ensure your dog receives the best possible introduction into our environment. 


    Our goal is simple: make sure your dog is comfortable, confident, and set up for success in our daycare setting.

  • What to Expect During Evaluation

    • Arrive at your scheduled time

    • We’ll spend a few minutes getting to know you and your dog

    • Your dog will be introduced into the daycare group

    • You can watch live from our lobby cameras as your pup explores and interacts


    After about 15 minutes, our manager will meet with you to discuss how your dog is doing and what we’re seeing.


    We ask that you plan to stay for the first 15–30 minutes.


    After that, you’re welcome to head out and run errands—your dog can stay and continue their daycare experience for the rest of the day at no additional charge.


    It’s the perfect way to ease your dog in—and yes, it’s essentially their first daycare day on us.
