Things to Know

We'll send you a document with all of this information when booking your event.

Dog Entry Requirements

All dogs who attend your event must adhere to our entry requirements below or they will not be permitted to enter the park. 

​

  • Humans must provide proof that their dog has unexpired vaccinations for Rabies, Bordetella, and Distemper.

  • All dogs must be fixed if they are one year old or older.

​

We will send you a link you can share with anyone bringing a dog that includes instructions on how to prepare for their visit. All dogs are expected to stop by our check-in window before entering the park so we can confirm they meet our requirements.

Weather

Bumble's Backyard is a completely outdoor facility. We have a tent that can hold 15-20 people that provides warmth in the cold months and shelter from weather available for your private use when booking the entire park. Please note that if you are booking the flex area only, it is uncovered and subject to any weather we may experience. Please inform your guests to dress appropriately for the weather no matter what rental you choose.

​

In the event of inclement weather, we are happy to help you reschedule your event based on our availability.

Food and Drink

We do not serve or allow any food for humans or dogs at Bumble's Backyard to keep all the pups on their best behavior (except pup cups on your way out!). That being said, it's hard to have a party without a cake! When booking the flex space during our open hours, we allow human and dog desserts in the flex space only (no catering, buffets, etc).

​

When booking the entire park, we allow dog and human food at your own discretion. We are not responsible for any altercations that may occur involving dogs and food. 

 

We do not allow outside beverages (except water); we are happy to serve you espresso drinks, canned alcoholic and N/A beverages, and more from our bar. View our menu here and let us know if you have any questions about beverages at your event.

A Few More Notes

  • We generally do not allow children under the age of 14 into the park during our open hours. Children are permitted at events using the whole park at your own discretion. Children under 14 are permitted at parties in our flex space, but they must stay in the flex space. If they need to exit the flex space (to use the restroom, for example) they must be accompanied by an adult. 

​

  • ​Please do not bring any dog toys to your event unless they are gifts.
