Full Transparency
Collars Dog Resort is built on a foundation of transparency.
Welcome to Collars Dog Resort, a dog daycare You Can Trust in Kansas City located in Waldo.
You’ll never have to wonder what’s happening when your dog is at our Waldo daycare. Thanks to our live cameras and full transparency, you can watch your dog play, rest, and get loved on in real time, whether you’re at home, at work, or right in our lobby.
Why do we do what we do?
It’s written in every tail wag
Your dog’s happiness is our mission. When they’re excited for a walk, their tail goes crazy. Treat time? Even bigger wags. That pure joy is what we live for every single day at our Waldo doggy daycare.
We Believe every dog deserves to feel loved, secure, and right at home, even when you’re not there.
That’s why we’ve carefully built a team of passionate, experienced caregivers and designed a safe, fun facility with Full Transparency at its core, so you can always see the love and care your dog receives.
That’s the Collars difference.
How much does it cost?
Whether your dog is the size of Toto or Beethoven, we have a facility designed to accommodate your pup. Check out our pricing page where we make it simple and easy.

Bibi & I love Collars Dog Resort. It's a doggy daycare for the modern age. Booking daycare, boarding, and grooming all online!? A dream! The staff is always so kind & the curbside pickup/drop off makes mornings & evenings a breeze. The groomer is so gentle & caring with my labradoodle. Bibi looks so adorable every time.

Collars Dog Resort is a beautiful facility - from the flooring to the kennels/apartments to the astroturf outdoor play area. The staff is friendly and helpful. My pup is having a good experience socializing and getting out his puppy energy, and the best part is that he is tired when I pick him up!

Brought my pup for a temperament test yesterday at Collars Dog Resort. Staff was super friendly and explained things thoroughly. Then, one of the owners was there and made time to give me a tour of the facility. They are transparent and don’t hide anything from their customers. They also have the nicest facility in the area.

We have a one year old Aussiedoodle who we have been bringing to the Collars Dog Resort regularly since July. The best thing we did for her was enroll her in the dog training classes offered by Jessica Belcher. Jessica is a very knowledgeable, kind and dedicated professional. Our dog thrived under her expert tutelage. We did the bronze and silver classes. In addition to the classes, Jessica was always willing and able to answer our questions and concerns we had about dog care and behavior.

I couldn’t be happier with the service I have gotten from Collars Dog Resort. Everyone there is very nice and you can tell they really care. My pup has been getting great exercise and socialization at DayPlay and is very excited to go back and hangout with her friends at the club!

I can't say enough in praise of the Collars Dog Resort for its customer service, friendly atmosphere (even for humans!), and their extraordinary care for the dogs who stay with them. Mine loves it, and his exhaustion at the end of the day, along with his wagging tail, tell the story of his experience.

Our first day was exceptional. Temperament test went smoothly and tour of facility was great. Nate helped us navigate the 24/7 option and love the online portal for reservations. Super clean facility and Norm didn't smell like a urinal at pickup like he has at other facilities. You earned a loyal customer today.

They know my dog by name and treat him like a rock star. Which, from what I can tell, is how they treat all the dogs. And my dog’s favorite non-family member in the whole word is his groomer. The facility is incredible. I am really impressed with what they did with that space!

Collars Dog Resort is the best! Everyone is so friendly and professional. The 24 hour drop off and pick up is a life saver for those of us who work 12 hour shifts. The in house groomers do a wonderful job as well. I can’t recommend this place enough. If my dog could talk, she would say the same!

Peanut had the best day. I loved that I could check in on her via the webcam and see staff interacting with the dogs. She is now tuckered out on the sofa after a fun filled day. ☺️

Took our Lagotto Romagnolo, Hooper, for a grooming. Shastie, studied the breed, consulted with another groomer and met with us beforehand. She gave him a terrific haircut and he had a great time with the other dogs! Also got a tour of the facility from the owners, and met with their trainer. We'll definitely be back.

Benny had such a great time while we were on vacation. When we picked him up, he didn't want to come home because he was having a blast. Benny hated our last boarding facility, and was very upset the entire time. But not at Collars Dog Resort! The staff is very professional and really cares about their doggos. Could not recommend a better place to board. Benny cant wait till we go on vacation again. Thanks Collars Dog Resort!

I would 100% recommend Collars Dog Resort to any dog owner in the KC area. The people working there are super nice and take great care of my dog, Homer, like he was one of their own. I love having a place close by to take my dog where I know he will be safe. Another big plus for me is that he always comes home worn out from playing all day!

My dog has truly grown in the short time I’ve been attending classes at Collars Dog Resort. I love going to class and love spending time training at home with skills learned from class. I’ve been to other dog training classes but this is by far the best I’ve been a part of. I’ll continue taking classes as much as possible.
