Getting Started FAQs

Pawsome Park & Lodge is a membership-based indoor dog park, doggy daycare, and dog boarding facility in downtown Everett, Washington. Every dog who enters our play areas is vaccinated, behavior-assessed, and a member in good standing — so your dog plays, stays, and socializes inside a safer, cleaner, and more structured environment than a typical public dog park.
Here is what nobody tells you about the public dog park down the street: any dog can walk through that gate. No vaccine records. No introductions. No one watching the body language before a scuffle turns into a vet bill. You find out a dog is a problem only after your dog gets hurt. Pawsome was built to erase that gamble. We know every dog by name, we verify every vaccine, and trained staff are on the floor reading the room before trouble starts. Your membership also unlocks daycare, overnight boarding, dog training, self-serve wash stations, and member pricing at our dog-friendly restaurant, Barkside Café. It is a whole community for you and your dog under one climate-controlled roof.

Pawsome Park & Lodge is located at 2820 Rucker Avenue, Everett, WA 98201, in the heart of downtown Everett — minutes from Boeing, Funko, and the Everett waterfront. Our facility operates seven days a week, Monday through Sunday, from 6:30 AM to 7:00 PM for daycare and boarding drop-off and pickup.
Daycare and boarding clients use our dedicated drop-off and pickup area in the back alley behind the building, where a staff member meets you at your vehicle — no leashing up and walking through a crowded lobby. Street parking is available in front of the building for all other services. Our customer service team answers new-client phone inquiries Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and you can email us any day of the week. Hours for our Indoor Dog Park, Barkside Café, Self-Wash Stations, and Training Services will be confirmed at our grand opening in early August.
Want to see the space before you commit? Book a tour or message us — we will walk you through the whole facility.
-
Yes. A membership is required for every service that involves bringing your dog — the indoor dog park, doggy daycare, overnight boarding, dog training, and the self-serve dog wash. If your dog comes through our doors, your dog is a member. There is one exception: Barkside Café, our restaurant, is open to the general public and does not require a membership when you are not bringing a dog.
This is not a money grab — it is the entire safety model. Because every member maintains a current profile, verified vaccination records, emergency contacts, and a completed behavior assessment, your dog is only ever surrounded by dogs that have cleared the same bar. That is the difference between a vetted community and rolling the dice at a public park. Membership also unlocks member-only discounts, priority booking, and first access to new services and events.

Getting started at Pawsome Park & Lodge takes three simple steps inside our MoeGo booking system:
1. Create your account and complete your dog's profile in MoeGo.
2. Upload your dog's vaccination records and purchase a membership.
3. Schedule your dog's behavior assessment and introduction.
That is it. No paperwork mailed back and forth, no waiting weeks for an opening. Most dogs are approved and playing within just a few days, depending on appointment availability. Once your dog is approved, daycare, overnight boarding, and every other available service are bookable in a few taps.
Start step one right now — create your dog's profile in MoeGo.
-
All dogs must be current on three vaccinations before participating in daycare, boarding, the indoor dog park, or any social service: Rabies, DHPP/DAPP (the distemper-parvo combination, sometimes called the 4-way), and Bordetella (kennel cough). These requirements protect every dog in our community and are non-negotiable — one of the core reasons a members-only facility is safer than a public dog park.
Think about it from the other direction: at Pawsome, you never have to wonder whether the dog next to yours is protected, because we have the records on file before that dog ever sets a paw inside. You can upload vaccine records directly through MoeGo, where our team reviews and approves them before your dog's first visit. If you are not sure your dog is current, your vet can confirm and send updated records the same day.
Already have your records handy?Upload them in MoeGo and we will get your dog approved fast.
-
The behavior assessment is your dog's first introduction to Pawsome Park & Lodge, and it is included free with every membership — a $45 value at no extra cost. During this roughly 30-minute visit, our team observes your dog's comfort level, play style, body language, confidence, and ability to interact safely with our staff and other dogs.
We do not "pass or fail" dogs, and that matters. The goal is to figure out which environment helps your dog thrive — not to turn anyone away. That is how we build compatible playgroups and set your dog up for a great first day instead of a stressful one. The assessment is a one-time requirement and does not need to be repeated unless circumstances change. Because it is bundled into your membership, there is genuinely no reason to wait.

MoeGo is our secure online booking and account system. You will use it to create your account, build your dog's profile, upload vaccination records, purchase your membership, and request daycare or boarding reservations.

No phone tag, no paper forms — everything lives in one secure place you can reach from your phone. To get started, just click "Book Now" on our website and you will be redirected to the MoeGo portal.

Doggy daycare and overnight dog boarding are available now at Pawsome Park & Lodge. Our Indoor Dog Park, Dog Training services, Self-Wash Stations, and Barkside Café will all launch together at our grand opening, planned for early August.
We chose to open these remaining amenities all at once rather than one at a time, so members walk into the complete Pawsome experience from day one. Here is the timing advantage for you: members who join before grand opening lock in founding-member pricing that disappears the moment we open — and they are first in line for park access when the doors swing wide.
Get in before the gates open — reserve founding-member pricing now.
-
Most dogs can visit as soon as three things are complete: their MoeGo profile is finished, their vaccination records are approved, and they have successfully completed their behavior assessment. Depending on appointment availability, many dogs get started within just a few days of signing up.
The fastest way in is to knock out all three steps in one sitting — profile, records, and booking your assessment — so you are not waiting on yourself. The sooner you start, the sooner your dog has a place to burn off energy and make friends.
Start the clock today — create your profile and book your assessment in MoeGo.
Dog Boarding FAQs
-
Every overnight dog boarding stay at Pawsome Park & Lodge includes comfortable accommodations, supervised potty breaks, individualized feeding, fresh water, attentive care, and plenty of exercise and enrichment throughout the day. Our goal is to make your dog's stay feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you are away.
Leaving your dog is the worst part of any trip — the nagging worry that they are scared, bored, or stuck in a cage all day. Because we are a members-only facility, your dog boards alongside familiar, vaccinated, behavior-assessed dogs and a team that already knows your dog's name, routine, and quirks. That is a level of consistency a traditional kennel simply cannot offer, and it is why our members actually relax on vacation.
Traveling soon? Reserve your dog's boarding dates in MoeGo before your travel window fills up.
-
Yes. Dogs approved for group play participate in doggy daycare activities during their boarding stay at no additional charge. This keeps your dog active, engaged, and happily tired before bedtime — which means better rest for them and fewer worries for you.
A tired dog is a calm dog. Instead of pacing a kennel and stress-barking, your dog spends the day playing with friends and the night sleeping it off. That is included, not an upsell.
Book a boarding stay with daycare built in — your dog plays all day at no extra cost.
-
Pawsome Park & Lodge has 24 walk-in kennels in a variety of sizes, plus a dedicated Solo-Boarding option for senior dogs, dogs recovering from surgery, or dogs that simply prefer their own space over social playgroups. Each kennel comfortably accommodates two dogs from the same household and includes a bedding area, a designated eating space, and a potty area when needed for senior pups.
Walk-in means exactly that — no stacked wire cages, no cramped crates your dog can barely turn around in. These are ground-level, room-sized accommodations. Whether your dog is the life of the party or needs a quiet corner to decompress, we have a space designed for their comfort. With only 24 kennels, holiday weeks book out fast.
Lock in your dates early — check boarding availability in MoeGo.
-
Absolutely. We administer most oral and topical medications and follow detailed feeding instructions provided by owners. We regularly care for dogs with allergies and special dietary needs.
For a lot of owners, this is the dealbreaker question — they have been turned away elsewhere because their dog needs a pill twice a day or a specific food. Not here. If your dog has a medical condition, just discuss it with our team before booking so we can plan the right level of care from night one.
Have a dog with special needs? Message our team in MoeGo and we will build the care plan together.
-
No. Dogs remain safely inside our climate-controlled facility throughout their boarding stay. The only exception is dogs enrolled in a dedicated Board & Train program that includes a customized plan with outdoor walks, urban training, or real-world distraction work — and any off-site or outdoor activity is discussed and approved with the owner in advance.
That means no surprise outings, no unfamiliar handlers walking your dog down a busy street without your say-so. Your dog stays in a secure, temperature-controlled environment unless you have personally signed off on a training plan that calls for more.
Want the peace of mind of a secure indoor stay? Reserve boarding now.
-
Yes. We provide daily report cards during your dog's stay that include photos and videos of their activities, playtime, and interactions. We also keep you updated on how your dog is doing — eating habits, water intake, behavior, and overall wellbeing — so you can enjoy your time away with genuine peace of mind.
There is nothing quite like opening your phone on a trip and seeing your dog mid-zoomie, tail up, having the time of their life. That photo is the difference between a vacation spent worrying and one spent relaxing.
-
Live camera access is not available at this time. We keep you connected through daily report cards with photos and videos, plus regular updates from our team on your dog's eating, activity, behavior, and overall wellbeing throughout the stay. If we add live camera viewing in the future, we will announce it to our members.
In the meantime, our daily report cards give you the highlights that actually matter — how your dog ate, how they played, and how they are settling in — without you having to refresh a grainy feed all day.
Reserve a boarding stay and we will keep you posted every day.
-
We strongly recommend scheduling a few doggy daycare visits before your dog's first overnight boarding stay. These daytime visits let your dog get familiar with our staff, our facility, our routines, and the other dogs — which significantly reduces stress when it is time to spend the night.
A dog who already feels at home boards far more comfortably. Think of daycare as a few low-pressure practice runs: by the time the overnight comes, this is just "their place" with "their people," not a scary new building. First-timers who do this transition beautifully.
Ease your dog in — book a few daycare days first, then add the overnight.
-
Book as early as possible. Holiday periods and school breaks are our busiest times and can fill up weeks or even months in advance. With only 24 kennels, the dates everyone wants — Thanksgiving, the December holidays, spring break, summer travel — go first.
Here is the math: a limited number of kennels plus the most popular travel weeks of the year equals a hard cutoff. The owners who plan ahead get the spot; the ones who wait scramble for a backup. Do not be the backup.
Holiday travel on the calendar? Reserve your dates now in MoeGo while space lasts.
-
Yes. We ask that all boarding dogs be picked up by 7:00 PM whenever possible. After 7:00 PM, our team begins evening care routines — feeding, administering medications, preparing accommodations, and helping dogs settle in for the night. A late pickup fee of $9 per hour, per dog applies to pickups after 7:00 PM.
The fee is not about nickel-and-diming you — it is about protecting the calm, consistent evening routine that helps every boarding dog wind down and sleep well. If you anticipate running late, just contact us as soon as possible so we can plan ahead and keep your dog comfortable.
Questions about pickup timing? Reach our team — we are happy to help you plan.
Dog Daycare FAQs
-
A typical day of doggy daycare at Pawsome Park & Lodge is a structured balance of supervised group play, rest breaks, enrichment activities, and social interaction — with plenty of opportunities to burn energy in a safe, climate-controlled environment. Our team carefully alternates activity and downtime to keep dogs happy, healthy, and comfortable rather than overstimulated.
Structure is what separates great daycare from chaos. A free-for-all leaves dogs frazzled and over-aroused; our rhythm of play-then-rest sends them home satisfied and genuinely tired — not wired. That is the dog who sleeps through the evening instead of bouncing off your walls.
Give your dog a better day than the backyard — book daycare in MoeGo.
-
Doggy daycare drop-off and pickup are available during our operating hours, seven days a week. For your convenience, we use a dedicated drop-off and pickup area in the alley behind our building. Rather than walking your dog through the facility, a member of our team meets you at your vehicle, safely collects your dog, and escorts them inside.
We found this curbside approach creates a smoother, less stressful transition for most dogs. By separating arrival from your departure, dogs settle into their day quickly instead of getting worked up over a long, drawn-out goodbye at the door. It is faster for you, too — pull up, hand off, go.
Ready for an easy curbside drop-off? Schedule your dog's daycare day.
-
We evaluate each dog's play style, confidence level, energy, size, and social preferences during their behavior assessment, then build playgroups based on compatibility — not size alone. Matching dogs by temperament and play style, rather than just lumping the big dogs together, creates safer and more enjoyable interactions for everyone.
A gentle 80-pound senior does not belong in a group of bouncy young terriers, and a shy small dog should not be thrown to the rowdy crowd. We group by who actually plays well together. That is how you get real play instead of mismatched dogs stressing each other out.
Find your dog's perfect playgroup — start with the free behavior assessment.
-
Dogs are actively supervised by trained staff throughout the entire day. Our team continuously monitors play styles, body language, energy levels, and interactions to keep every dog safe, comfortable, and engaged.
Active supervision by people who actually understand canine behavior is the single most important safety feature of any daycare — and it is the standard we hold every single day. The difference between a near-miss and an incident is a trained eye catching the warning signs early. That eye is always on the floor here.
Trust your dog to trained, watchful staff — book a daycare day.
-
Yes. We are open seven days a week, so you can book doggy daycare on weekends as well as weekdays.
Saturday errands, a Sunday hike where dogs are not welcome, a weekend you just need to get things done — your dog has a safe, fun place to be either way.
Book weekend daycare now and reclaim your weekend.
-
Yes. Every dog must complete a behavior assessment before participating in daycare, boarding, or any other social service at Pawsome Park & Lodge. The assessment lets our team learn your dog's personality, play style, energy level, confidence, and comfort around people and other dogs.
This is exactly why parents trust us with their dogs: nobody gets in without clearing it first. It helps us place your dog in the safest, most appropriate environment and build compatible playgroups for a positive first day. Our goal is never to "pass or fail" a dog — it is to understand what setting will help them succeed. And it is included free with membership.
Knock out the free assessment first — schedule it in MoeGo.
-
Yes. We provide daily report cards that include photos and videos of your dog's activities, playtime, and interactions — so you always know how their day went.
You do not have to wonder what your dog did all day. You get to see it: the play, the friends, the happy exhausted face at the end. It is the best text message you will get all day.
Book a daycare day and check your phone for the highlights.
-
Live camera access is not available at this time. Instead, you will receive daily report cards with photos and videos of your dog's playtime, activities, and interactions, plus updates from our team. If we add live camera viewing in the future, we will let our members know.
Our report cards capture the moments that matter without you having to babysit a video feed at work. You get the real story of your dog's day, delivered.
Reserve your dog's spot and we will send the highlights.
-
That depends on when it happens and why, and we handle every case individually with your dog's wellbeing as the priority — that flexibility is exactly what membership and a behavior-first model make possible.
If it happens during the behavior assessment, there are usually two explanations. Sometimes we simply do not have the right playmates available that day to fully evaluate your dog's social style — in which case we may recommend a second assessment with a different group before deciding anything. Other dogs simply prefer a quieter environment and do not enjoy group play, and that is perfectly okay. We offer alternatives including solo daycare and limited boarding accommodations for dogs that prefer more personal space and lower social intensity.
If your dog has already been approved but is having an off day, our team monitors closely. Dogs, like people, get tired, stressed, or just uninterested. Rather than forcing participation, we adjust the day to fit the dog — rest breaks, one-on-one time with staff, enrichment, or a quiet private room. The goal is always a safe, comfortable, positive experience based on what your individual dog needs that day. Try getting that at a public park.
Have a dog who needs a gentler approach? Talk to our team — we will find the right fit.
Indoor Dog Park FAQs
-
Our indoor dog park is planning its grand opening for early August. We are launching the Indoor Dog Park, Barkside Café, Self-Wash Stations, and Training Services all together, so members can enjoy the complete Pawsome experience from day one.
Rather than opening amenities one at a time, we are making sure everything is fully ready before the doors open. The smart move is to join now: founding members lock in the lowest annual rate we will ever offer and walk in first when the gates open in August.
Be there on day one — claim founding-member pricing before it is gone.
Structure is what separates great daycare from chaos. A free-for-all leaves dogs frazzled and over-aroused; our rhythm of play-then-rest sends them home satisfied and genuinely tired — not wired. That is the dog who sleeps through the evening instead of bouncing off your walls.
Give your dog a better day than the backyard — book daycare in MoeGo.

Our indoor dog park is approximately 6,500 square feet of climate-controlled, off-leash play space designed to stay comfortable year-round. The park features multiple high-volume fans, dedicated ventilation, fresh-air exchange, and commercial air filtration to maintain excellent airflow and air quality. Even during warmer weather, the space typically stays several degrees cooler than the outdoor temperature.
That means no more skipping the dog park because it is pouring rain, sweltering, or freezing. Everett weather does not get a vote here — your dog gets a clean, temperature-controlled place to run every day of the year. The flooring is high-drainage artificial pet turf laid over an AirDrain air-cell drainage system, so liquids drain away instantly for a cleaner, drier, lower-odor surface than grass or concrete. No mud, no puddles, no soggy paws tracked into your car.
Give your dog 6,500 square feet of all-weather play — join now.
-
Yes. The indoor dog park is a members-only amenity, and a membership is required for every dog who enters. Requiring membership lets us enforce vaccination compliance, maintain accountability, and build a safer community of vetted dogs and responsible owners.
This is exactly what makes Pawsome safer than a public dog park, where any unvaccinated, unassessed dog can wander in off the street and you simply hope for the best. Here, every dog inside those gates has cleared the same bar yours did. That is not a restriction — it is the whole point.
Join the vetted community — view membership options.
-
Yes. Day passes are available for members who do not want to commit to unlimited park access. Day-pass access is built into our Pay-As-You-Go Membership: for a $79 annual membership fee, you pay just $42 per visit, which gives you up to six hours of indoor dog park access and concurrent self-serve dog wash access on the same day.
So your dog can run for hours and get a bath before heading home — all in one $42 visit. An active membership is always required before purchasing day passes, because every dog inside our gates must be vaccinated, behavior-assessed, and in good standing. No exceptions, no strangers' dogs.
Prefer to pay as you go? Start a Pay-As-You-Go membership and grab your first day pass.
-
Yes. The indoor dog park is a fully off-leash environment. We encourage owners to choose the area that best matches their dog's size, energy level, and play style on any given day, and our trained staff provide guidance when needed to keep the experience safe and enjoyable for every dog.
Off-leash, indoors, climate-controlled, and staffed — that combination is almost impossible to find in the Everett area. Your dog gets real freedom to run while a trained team helps keep the matchups sensible.
Become a member and let your dog run free, rain or shine.
-
Yes. Owners are responsible for supervising their own dogs while using the indoor dog park. Brief exceptions are fine — stepping away to use the restroom or grab something from Barkside Café — but owners are expected to remain on-site and readily available at all times.
This shared-responsibility model, combined with our on-floor staff, is part of what keeps the park genuinely safe. You know your dog best; our team knows the room. Together that is two layers of supervision a public park can never match.
Hang out while your dog plays — join the park community.
-
Yes. Trained staff are present throughout all park operating hours. While owners remain responsible for their own dogs, our team actively monitors interactions, reads canine body language, and steps in when necessary to prevent conflicts, redirect inappropriate behavior, or help a dog stay comfortable and safe.
You get the best of both worlds: your hands-on involvement plus a professional safety net watching the whole floor. That is the layer that turns "I hope this goes okay" into "I know my dog is safe."
Join Pawsome and play with a professional safety net in the room.
-
Absolutely. The indoor dog park includes designated seating areas where you can relax, enjoy food and beverages from Barkside Café, and socialize with other dog owners while keeping an eye on your dog.
It is a genuine community space — a place to make friends, unwind with a local beer or a coffee, and let your dog do the same. Picture it: your dog romping with their favorite playmates while you actually enjoy yourself instead of standing in the rain checking your watch.
That is your new weekend spot — claim founding-member access.
-
Owners are responsible for immediately cleaning up after their dogs and helping keep the park clean for everyone. Aggressive behavior, bullying, repeated inappropriate interactions, and unsafe conduct are not tolerated.
This is precisely why members choose us over a free public park: there are real standards, and we enforce them. If a conflict occurs, staff immediately intervene, separate the dogs, and assess. Dogs may get a decompression period before returning to play. Depending on the situation, we may recommend training, supervised reintegration, temporary restrictions, or removal. Every case is judged individually, with the safety of all dogs as the highest priority — so the park stays a place you actually trust.
Want a park with real standards? Join the vetted community.
Dog Training FAQs
-
Dog training services will begin following our grand opening in early August. We will initially offer private one-on-one training sessions and consultations, then survey our members to gauge interest in group classes and specialty programs so we can build a schedule around the needs of our community.
Members get first crack at every class and the best pricing — so the dogs who join early are the ones who get the trainer's calendar before it fills.
Want priority access to training? Become a member now.

Our training philosophy is based on LIMA — Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive — principles. We prioritize positive reinforcement, reward-based learning, thoughtful management, and clear communication to help dogs learn in a way that builds confidence and trust.
No fear, no force, no shutting a dog down — just methods that build a dog who wants to work with you. Because every dog-and-owner team is unique, training plans are customized to your goals and your dog's learning style. During private consultations, we map out the exact tools and techniques for your situation.

Our lead trainer is Timmy Ziuzin, General Manager of Pawsome Park & Lodge. Timmy is an AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator, an AKC Family Dog Program Evaluator, and a Certified Trick Dog Instructor, and is currently pursuing additional education in Applied Animal Behavior.
This is not a part-timer who took a weekend course. Timmy brings deep experience training, handling, competing, and titling dogs across obedience, agility, conformation, scent sports, nose work, shed hunting, trick training, and canine enrichment. As demand grows, we will add specialists for advanced classes — but you are starting with a credentialed, competition-proven trainer.

-
Both. We plan to offer private one-on-one training, puppy socialization programs, group classes, workshops, and specialty seminars. Available options will expand as new programs are introduced based on member interest.
Want focused, customized work? Go private. Want your dog learning around the distraction of other dogs? Go group. You are not locked into one format — you pick what fits your dog and your goals.
Become a member and tell us which format you want first.
-
While some future training programs may open to non-members, Pawsome members receive priority access to training opportunities, events, and specialty programs. Membership is the best way to guarantee your spot and get the most value from our training offerings.
Classes have limited seats. When a popular program opens, members book first — non-members take whatever is left, if anything. If training is part of why you are here, membership is the way to make sure you actually get in.
Guarantee your seat — join Pawsome today.
-
Pricing and program length vary by service. Private lessons, group classes, workshops, and behavior modification programs each have different structures and goals. Final pricing and program details will be announced closer to launch and will continue to expand based on member interest — and members will hear first, at member rates.
Want to be first to know — and first to book? Become a member now.
-
That depends on the program. Some classes are designed specifically for young puppies, while others are built for adolescent, adult, or advanced dogs. Whether your dog is just getting started or working toward advanced titles, we will help you find the program that best matches your goals.
It is never too early and rarely too late. Puppies build a foundation; older dogs absolutely learn new tricks. We will point you to the right starting line.
Not sure where your dog fits? Join and ask our trainer — we will guide you.
Self-Wash Station FAQs
-
Our self-serve dog wash stations are expected to open alongside our other expanded amenities at our grand opening in early August. We want members to enjoy the full Pawsome experience — Indoor Dog Park, Barkside Café, Training Services, and Self-Wash Stations — from day one.
And here is the kicker: for Monthly and Annual Members, self-wash is included at no charge. Join before opening and that perk is locked in at founding-member pricing.
Lock in free self-wash access — claim founding pricing now.
-
Self-serve dog wash access is included at no charge for Monthly and Annual Members, and access runs concurrently with indoor dog park access for every membership tier. Pay-As-You-Go Members also get self-wash access included with their $42 day pass on the same day they visit the park — no separate charge. Self-wash pricing for visits outside of a day pass will be available separately and may vary based on the size of your dog.
In plain terms: with any membership, your dog can play in the park and get cleaned up before heading home, all in one visit, with no surprise add-on fee. The muddy-dog-in-the-backseat problem is just… solved.
Become a member and bathe your dog before you ever get in the car.
-
Self-wash operating hours will be announced closer to our grand opening and may vary based on facility operations and staffing.
Members will be the first to know the moment hours are set — one more reason to get your membership squared away now.

-
Self-wash stations are available on a first-come, first-served basis. No appointment is required — just bring your dog when you are ready.

Save your back and your bathroom — join and use the wash stations.
-
Yes. Towel rentals are available for a $5 fee, or you are welcome to bring your own towels if you prefer.

Become a member and wash with everything provided.
-
Yes. We offer multiple tub sizes to accommodate dogs of different sizes and mobility levels. Our larger bathing stations are designed to make bathing easier for large breeds, senior dogs, and any dog that needs extra room or support.
So you do not have to wrestle a 90-pound retriever into a too-small tub or hoist an arthritic senior over a high wall. The big, walk-up stations do the heavy lifting for you.
Got a big or senior dog? Join now and use our large-breed wash stations.
-
Absolutely. Staff are available to answer questions, offer guidance, and help you get started. Monthly and Annual Members receive staff assistance at no additional charge.

First time using the stations or just want an extra set of hands with a squirmy dog? We are right there. You are never on your own.
Become a member and get hands-on help included.
Membership & Pricing FAQs
-
A membership is required because it lets us deliver a safer, cleaner, and more personalized experience for every dog. Because all members maintain up-to-date profiles, verified vaccination records, emergency contacts, and behavior histories, our team provides more consistent care and builds a community of familiar dogs and owners.
Here is the trade you are really making. At a public dog park, you are trusting strangers' unvaccinated, unassessed dogs with your dog's safety — for free, with zero accountability. At Pawsome, every dog has been vetted, every record verified, every owner held to a standard. That is what your membership actually buys: the end of the gamble.
Stop gambling with your dog's safety — view membership options.
-
We offer three membership options designed to fit different lifestyles and levels of facility use. Every tier requires the included one-time behavior assessment (a $45 value, free with membership), and any service that involves bringing your dog requires an active membership.
Pay-As-You-Go Membership — $79 per year membership fee. Perfect for occasional visitors who want flexibility without a recurring monthly commitment. Members can access daycare, boarding, training, and other services as they become available, at standard (non-discounted) pricing. Indoor dog park access is available through $42 day passes, each good for up to six hours and including concurrent self-serve dog wash access the same day.
Monthly Membership — $115 per month with no long-term commitment. Includes unlimited indoor dog park access, unlimited self-serve dog wash access (concurrent with park access), discounted daycare and boarding rates, 10% off Barkside Café purchases, and multi-dog household pricing.
Annual Membership — $999 per year, our highest level of benefits. Includes unlimited indoor dog park access, unlimited self-serve dog wash access (concurrent with park access), our best daycare and boarding discounts, café discounts, and additional member perks. Founding Member pricing is available for a limited time around our grand opening — starting as low as $495 per year, first-come, first-served.
For regular visitors, the Annual tier pays for itself fast in daycare and boarding discounts alone. For occasional drop-ins, Pay-As-You-Go keeps you flexible. There is a fit for every dog and budget.

Currently, the Pay-As-You-Go Membership is available, giving you access to doggy daycare and overnight boarding right now. The Monthly and Annual Memberships become available when the Indoor Dog Park and related amenities officially launch at our grand opening in early August.
But here is the part that matters today: founding-member Annual pricing is being offered before we open, starting as low as $495/year and climbing as each tier sells out. Wait until August and that window is gone.
Lock in the lowest annual rate we will ever offer — claim founding pricing now.

The standard Annual Membership is $999 per year for your first dog. Before we open, a limited number of Founding Member memberships will be offered at discounted rates on a first-come, first-served basis. The earliest pricing tier starts at $495 per year, with each subsequent tier increasing in price as the prior tier sells out — until standard pricing is reached.
Read that again: $495 versus $999. Founding Members lock in the lowest annual rate we will ever offer and become the original community that shapes Pawsome Park & Lodge. Once these limited spots are gone, they are gone — and the price only goes up from here. The earlier you join, the more you save, permanently.
Save up to $504 a year — claim a founding-member spot before this tier sells out.

The primary differences are the level of benefits, the size of the discounts, and the commitment.
Pay-As-You-Go ($79/year + per-visit pricing) offers maximum flexibility with no monthly commitment, at standard service pricing. Park access is purchased per day ($42 for up to six hours, self-wash included).
Monthly Membership ($115/month) provides unlimited park access, unlimited self-wash access, 10% off the café, and reduced pricing on daycare and boarding.
Annual Membership ($999/year, founding from $495) delivers the greatest overall value — the largest discounts on daycare and boarding plus all available membership benefits.
The rule of thumb: if you visit often, Monthly or Annual pays for itself fast. If you drop in occasionally, Pay-As-You-Go keeps you flexible. Either way, you are in a vetted community — not a free-for-all.

Pay-As-You-Go Members pay standard daycare and boarding pricing. Monthly and Annual Members receive discounted daycare and boarding rates, with Annual Members receiving the greatest savings. Current pricing schedules are available through your MoeGo customer portal and on the membership pages of our website.
The more you use Pawsome, the more an upgraded membership saves you — for a regular daycare or boarding user, the discounts alone can offset much of an Annual Membership. It is the rare upgrade that often pays for itself.

Yes. We offer same-household multi-dog pricing on our Monthly and Annual Memberships so families with more than one dog can participate affordably:
Monthly Membership:
First dog: $115/month
Second dog (same household): $80/month
Third dog and each additional dog: $57/month
Annual Membership:
First dog: $999/year
Second dog (same household): $695/year
Third dog and each additional dog: $497/year
Multi-dog households save the most here. If you have got a pack, the per-dog cost drops sharply with each additional pup — so the whole crew gets the full Pawsome experience without breaking the budget.
Bringing the whole pack? Set up multi-dog membership in MoeGo.
-
Yes. Every dog completes a one-time behavior assessment before participating in services, and it is included free with every membership tier (a $45 value). It does not need to be repeated unless circumstances require a re-evaluation.
That is $45 of value built into your membership on day one — and it is the same screening that keeps every dog around yours safe. You are not paying extra for the very thing that makes this place better than a public park.
Get your free $45 assessment with membership — join now.

Memberships and reservations are managed through MoeGo. Create your dog's profile, upload vaccination records, select a membership, and schedule your behavior assessment. Once approved, you will be able to book daycare, boarding, and every other available service.
The whole thing takes about five minutes, and founding-member pricing is live right now. Every day you wait is a day your dog could already be playing — and a day closer to the next price tier.

Nothing changes unless you choose to upgrade. Your Pay-As-You-Go Membership stays active and continues to provide access to eligible services.

Membership Benefits FAQs
-
Membership perks go well beyond indoor dog park access. Depending on your tier, benefits may include discounted daycare and boarding rates, unlimited self-serve dog wash access, 10% off Barkside Café purchases, access to member-only events, priority access to new services, and a more personalized experience for both you and your dog. Monthly and Annual Memberships include the greatest number of benefits and the deepest savings.
Add it up and one membership covers your dog's play, care, grooming, training priority, and your coffee-and-beer hangout — all in one place, at one membership. That is a lot of life made simpler.

Membership creates consistency, and dogs thrive on consistency. Because our team becomes familiar with your dog's personality, preferences, play style, and routine, we deliver more individualized care every visit.
A dog who knows the place, the people, and the playmates settles in fast — which means less stress on boarding nights and happier daycare days. Compare that to a different kennel every trip, where your dog starts from scratch with strangers every single time. Familiarity is a real, measurable comfort for your dog.
Give your dog a place that knows them — become a member.
-
Depending on your membership level, your benefits as an owner may include discounted services, café discounts, unlimited self-serve dog wash access, access to member amenities, priority access to events and programs, and the everyday convenience of having your dog's records, preferences, and care information already on file.
Translation: less paperwork, faster check-ins, and a team that already knows your dog by name. You stop re-explaining your dog's needs at every visit and start just… showing up. That convenience adds up fast over a year.

A members-only club is dramatically safer than a public dog park because every single dog has been vetted. At Pawsome Park & Lodge, every dog must maintain current vaccination records, complete a behavior assessment, and remain in good standing to participate. We also keep trained staff on-site to monitor interactions and prevent problems before they escalate.
Now picture the alternative. A public dog park: any dog walks through the gate — no vaccine records, no temperament screening, no supervision, no accountability. You have no idea who or what your dog is being exposed to until it is too late. One unvaccinated, unpredictable dog can turn a fun afternoon into an emergency vet visit. Our model removes that gamble and replaces it with a clean, accountable, professionally supervised community. That peace of mind is the heart of what your membership buys.
Choose the vetted option — join the safest dog community in Everett.

Yes. Each tier includes different benefits and levels of savings. Pay-As-You-Go provides access to services with maximum flexibility at standard pricing. Monthly and Annual Memberships add perks such as unlimited park access, unlimited self-wash access, café discounts, and reduced daycare and boarding pricing. Annual Members receive the greatest overall value and savings.
The heavier your dog's calendar, the more an upgraded tier saves you — and Annual members at founding pricing get the deepest discounts locked in for good.

-
No. Memberships are assigned individually to each dog. However, we offer same-household multi-dog pricing on qualifying membership plans, making it more affordable for families with multiple dogs to participate.
So the second and third dog in your house cost significantly less than the first — the pack gets the full experience without paying full freight for each. (See the Membership & Pricing page for current multi-dog rates.)

Mark your calendar for early August — and if you want the indoor dog park alongside your coffee, get your membership set up now so you are ready to walk in on opening day.

Barkside Café serves a variety of hot and cold food options, snacks, coffee, specialty beverages, and refreshments, plus a curated selection of beer and wine — including offerings from local breweries and regional partners — alongside non-alcoholic choices.
Whether you are fueling up before park playtime or unwinding with a cold local beer while your dog tires out, the café is built to be the social heart of Pawsome. It is the rare spot in Everett where you and your dog are both genuinely welcome to hang out.

No. Barkside Café is open to the general public, and no membership is required to visit when you are not bringing a dog. If you would like to visit with your dog, we will be glad to help you get started with a membership, complete your dog's profile, and schedule the required behavior assessment.
So bring your friends, your laptop, your book club — no dog or membership needed. And if you fall in love with the place and want to bring your pup next time, joining is quick and easy.
Want to bring your dog along too? Get started with a membership. -

It is a community hub first. Come for the coffee, stay for the dogs you will inevitably meet.
Stop by anytime — and join as a member when you are ready to bring your dog. -
Yes. Monthly and Annual Members receive 10% off eligible Barkside Café purchases. Specific discount details may vary by membership level.
If Barkside becomes your regular coffee or after-walk beer stop, that 10% quietly adds up over a year — one more way membership pays you back.
Save 10% every visit — become a member. -
Yes. We offer dog-friendly seating areas for guests who want to relax and enjoy the café with their dogs without necessarily using the indoor dog park. These spaces are designed to be comfortable for both people and their canine companions.
Finally, a place where bringing your dog is the expectation, not an awkward exception. Sit, sip, and let your dog lounge right beside you.
Join Pawsome and make the café your dog-friendly hangout. -
Barkside Café operating hours will be announced closer to our grand opening and may vary based on seasonal demand and special events.
Members get the announcement first. Set up your membership now and you will know opening hours the moment they are live.

Yes. In addition to beer and wine, we offer a variety of non-alcoholic beverages — coffee, specialty drinks, and refreshments — so everyone can find something they enjoy. Barkside Café serves beer and wine; we do not serve hard liquor or spirits.

It depends on the event. Some events are designed specifically for dogs and their owners, while others are intended primarily for people. Each event description clearly indicates whether dogs are welcome and lists any participation requirements that apply.
The dog-friendly events are some of the most fun things we do — but your dog needs to be a vetted member to join the four-legged festivities.
Want your dog at the dog events? Get them membership-ready. -
Yes. Pawsome Park & Lodge offers facility rentals for private events, parties, meetups, celebrations, and community gatherings — including dog birthday parties. We have multiple spaces available throughout the facility and can accommodate a variety of event types.
