A better way to stay & play
Purposeful Care Built Around Structure and Trust
Whether joining us for daycare or boarding, every guest becomes part of a calm, supervised environment where manners matter.
At Woof Den Inn, we provide more than just a place for your dog to spend the day or stay overnight — we create a structured, enriching environment built around good manners, confidence, and balanced behavior.
The Woof Den Story
Locally owned, operated, and deeply rooted in beautiful Des Moines, WA.
Located near the south end of the Des Moines Marina and less than a mile from Des Moines Beach Park, we are proud community members blending safety-first care with a playful, inviting atmosphere.
Multiple outdoor Spaces
Exceptional Outdoor Spaces: Fresh Air, Privacy & Play
At Woof Den Inn & Daycare, we believe high-quality care requires variety, fresh air, and pristine outdoor environments.
Unlike standard urban daycare facilities, we are proud to offer multiple dedicated outdoor spaces tailored to keep your pup comfortable, refreshed, and thoroughly entertained throughout their stay.
What We Offer
Our Core Services
Boutique Boarding
A true “inn” experience equipped with state-of-the-art amenities to make your pet’s stay as comfortable as possible. Safe, cozy overnight lodging where boarded dogs enjoy highly personalized care and socialization in intimate, small social groups.
Structured Daycare
Active, supervised play mixed with structured rest. Daycare dogs enjoy larger social groups to run and play, focusing on good manners and safe socialization so they come home relaxed, not overstimulated.
Dedicated Training
Embedding focus and behavioral structure into your dog’s daily routine.
We believe pet care should be seamless, which is why we built a custom digital experience just for our community.
The Woof Den Inn app brings our downtown Des Moines Marina district hospitality right to your fingertips. Available now in your smartphone's app store, it is your all-in-one portal to stay connected with your dog's stay.
