During playtime, all dogs work on coming when called, and manners like not jumping on us or the counters! Follow us on facebook and instagram to see photos of the pups playing each day!

We do take intact males and females! If a female is in heat we strongly prefer they not come to daycare but, we are comfortable taking them if you need care for the day. Please make sure to notify us.
Questions about intact females and heat cycles? Our staff members are familiar and happy to answer any questions!
We do not require a meet & greet. We feel as though short meet & greets do not allow us to get to know your dog well enough. We prefer to have your dog experience a true day of daycare and, if at the end of the day we don't feel as though your dog will fit in with our program we will let you know.
We welcome owners to stop in to see the facility or meet our staff between 3:30-6:00pm Mon-Fri but ask that dogs be left at home. If you would like your dog to come in for a meet & greet, please schedule a 30 minute private lesson.
Leash, collar & if you are doing basics or day training please bring your dogs breakfast or treats!
The Modern K9 realizes every canine is an individual. With each individual dog comes unique personalities, goals, and needs. We use a variety of methods on a case by case basis to achieve these goals.
We are a balanced training facility. We rely primarily on positive reinforcement and rewarding dogs for good behavior using marker words in combination with treats, toys, praise, play, and whatever else motivates the dog. This is especially true when laying foundations and training new skills. We don't believe it is fair to punish a dog that hasn't been taught the correct behavior clearly and consistently through positive reinforcement first.
With this being said, we do not limit ourselves to only positive reinforcement. We believe that dogs can understand right versus wrong. For effective communication, we use a variety tools which can include food, toys, treats, leash pressure, non-marker words, prong collars, and electronic collars. We are committed to training in a way that is fair to the dog and promotes mutual respect between canine and owner.
If Rochester Public schools are canceled, we will accept day of cancelations for a full refund to your account.
We do offer payment plans through Affirm & Klarna for board & train and daycare packages, please email us to set up!
