When you have a trip coming up, it helps to know your dog will be with someone who understands how they were trained. That is why we offer boarding only to dogs who have graduated from one of our training programs.

Paulina already knows your dog’s cues, routines and the manners you worked on together. During their stay, your dog keeps practicing those same skills, so they come home ready to pick up where you left off.

Boarding is by appointment only. Drop-off and pick-up are scheduled within our regular hours: Monday to Friday 7 AM to 6 PM, Saturday 7 AM to 12 PM, and Sunday 4 PM to 6 PM. We are closed on major holidays.

If your dog hasn’t trained with us yet, the first step is a training consultation. Once your dog graduates, you can book boarding whenever you have dates in mind.

Graduate Boarding & Day Camp Policies, Schedule & Eligibility

Why do we limit Graduate Boarding and Day Camp for Graduates exclusively to dogs trained by The Mannered Mutt? Traditional commercial kennels and open public daycares mix dozens of untrained dogs in high-arousal pens, which rapidly undoes loose-leash walking, crate calmness, and polite greetings. By welcoming only our own graduates into Paulina Beck's home environment in Conroe, TX 77303, every stay reinforces the exact cues your dog already knows.

  • Appointment Drop-Off & Pick-Up Hours: Monday through Friday 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM; Saturday 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM; Sunday 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM (closed on major holidays for arrivals and departures).
  • Daily Structure: Supervised outdoor play and socialization, structured place-cot rest, leash walking refreshers, and calm crate sleep inside a climate-controlled home setting.
  • Health & Vaccines: Dogs must be current on Rabies, Distemper/Parvo, and Bordetella vaccinations, on flea/tick prevention, and spayed or neutered for group Day Camp play.

Graduate Boarding Frequently Asked Questions

Can I board my dog at The Mannered Mutt if they have not trained with you yet?

Graduate Boarding and Day Camp for Graduates are reserved exclusively for dogs that have completed a Mannered Mutt training program. However, many new clients enroll their dog in our 3-Week Puppy Manners Board and Train ($1,800) or an Adult Board and Train immersion stay during their upcoming trip, which graduates the dog and unlocks alumni boarding for all future travel.

What are your drop-off and pick-up hours in Conroe, TX 77303?

Drop-off and pick-up are scheduled by appointment during our operating windows: Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Saturday from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM, and Sunday from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. We are closed for drop-offs and pick-ups on major holidays.

How is Graduate Boarding different from a traditional boarding kennel?
