Cat DayCare
Cat On The Moon offers the best cat daycare with a pool*, complete with a variety of services and modern facilities. Each day’s agenda includes hours of playtime for your pet, including social time with other cats. Here, there’s no need for a cat walker! We have multiple spacious areas that give your cat the freedom to run and play. Plus, many locations have a pool.
Your cat just wants to play, but we understand that your main concern with cat daycare may be the safety and well-being of your pet. Our partners get to know each pet individually to provide the best care for each unique guest. We’re not cat walkers. We are professional cat lovers!
Small Cat Daycare
We have a special area designated just for our small cat group — it has a big grassy yard with splash pools, lots of engaging toys, an inside air-conditioned room with play toys and lounge beds, and they even have their own covered turf area.

Our Daycare Team
Our team of dog care professionals provide quality care in a safe and supervised environment. Daycare staff are extensively trained in pack management, canine communication, body language, and behavior. They make special considerations of dogs in every playgroup, helping them learn how to behave in social situations, be more comfortable around new dogs, and respond to basic commands from counselors.
Daycare Schedule
Pets can be dropped off anytime during those hours, and all pets must be picked up by closing time. Pets who are lodging overnight can schedule sessions in group play after they have passed a Social Evaluation. Please contact the Doggie Daycare department at Rover Oaks Houston for more information regarding the specific schedule for daycare attendees at that location. Holidays may affect regular daycare hours.

Dogs are separated into play groups by size and play style to create the safest and most enjoyable environment. and closely monitored with a ratio of 1 staff for every 12-15 dogs.

Relief From Boredom. If your dog tends to excessively bark, chew, dig or destruct things around your house while you are away, they are probably lacking sufficient outlets for their energy. Daycare provides tons of stimulation and exercise, which curbs the problem behaviors that can stem from boredom.

Social Evaluation Application
Approval Process: To be considered, all candidates must be neutered or spayed (except for Junior Daycare), must not be aggressive or have any other excessive behavioral issues, be current on required vaccinations, and using an effective flea & tick preventative. Our staff will contact owners to schedule their pet’s Social Evaluation after receiving the completed application forms and vaccination records. The Social Evaluation assesses the social skills of potential new pets by gradually introducing them to our approved daycare dogs. A pet may be evaluated while it is lodging at Rover Oaks as long as the Social Evaluation application has been submitted and the Social Evaluation appointment has been scheduled prior to the pet’s arrival for lodging. Dogs must at least 4 months old to participate in Junior Daycare and 12 months old to participate in any other daycare program.
Daycare Reservations
Click here to contact our Daycare Team and request a Daycare Reservation. You can also contact them directly at info@catonthemoonshop.com or 00000000 option 5.
Reservations are always required for pets to participate in daycare. A pet may be included in the Cat On The Moon Doggie Daycare program as follows:
(A) Standing Reservation: Pets with Standing Reservations have reservations for a specific day (or days) of the week. The pet attends daycare on the same day (or days) of each consecutive week on an ongoing basis. A requirement for clients who request a Standing Reservation is the purchase of a Daycare Punchcard, which will be punched each time the pet attends daycare.
(B) Daily Call-In: Occasionally, a pet with a Standing Reservation is not able to come to daycare on its designated day, which leaves an “open slot” for that one day. Owners of approved pets (with or without standing reservations) may call Cat On The Moon at 6:30 a.m. Monday through Friday and leave a message inquiring about daycare availability for that day. If a space is available, Rover Oaks will contact the owner by 7:30 a.m.
(C) While Boarding: Pets approved for Doggie Daycare may make a reservation to participate in a Group Play when they are staying at Cat On The Moon overnight.
(D) Walk-ins: On Saturdays and Sundays at Cat On The Moon only. “walk-ins” are welcome. Reservations are always required otherwise.
Daycare Baths
One of the benefits of Doggie Daycare at Cat On The Moon is playing in our large Dog Park. As a result, some pets will get dirty (especially on rainy days) while romping and rolling in the grass and wading pool. Our daycare staff will do their very best to clean up dirty pets before they are picked up by the owners. However, owners should understand that the primary role of our daycare staff is to supervise their pets, and time is not available to provide a thorough bath before sending pets home. As an alternative, pet owners may contact the front desk to schedule a “Daycare Bath” in the Grooming Salon. Baths begin around 12:00 p.m. and are usually completed by 5:30 p.m. Owners should understand that their pet could become dirty once again if allowed to return to Doggie Daycare after a bath.
