Welcome to Buster's Buddies! #1 Dog Daycare in the Appleton area.

Buster’s Buddies Resort is a new facility in the Fox Valley with a long history. In May of 2019 Mike and Kelly Hackbarth purchased Jolee Aire Kennels, which was in operation for 30+ years In Little Chute. We did a lot of research and networking to understand how to bring to life our vision of providing a clean, safe, and fun place for your dog to be groomed and to stay and play. In March of 2020 we opened the newly built (Thank you Calmes & Sons)  4,000 square foot indoor facility with over 15,000 square feet of outdoor space.

Although the Fox Valley has a number of quality dog daycare, dog boarding and dog grooming facilities we knew there was room for one more. Some of the highlights of Buster's Buddies are:

• Clean 

• Our affiliation with Health Technology gives us access to veterinary grade cleaners and best practices to prevent the spread of germs and odors.
• Kinn Pet Bowls  are the healthiest and most environmentally friendly method of providing food and water to our guests.
• Ozone free UV HVAC system to help prevent the spread of germs and viruses.

• Safe

• Small Pack sizes with emphasis on matching more than just the weight of the dog. 
• Suite Boarding - Large Suites, Elevated beds and Daycare included will give your Buddy plenty to do and comfortable rest when they stay overnight.
• Our Best Buddies (ie. Staff) are trained to recognize any potential health issues.
• We take our vaccination records seriously.
• We are not afraid to remove dogs that are not playing nicely.

• Fun

• 15,000+ sq ft  outdoor grass/ pet turf play areas allow for plenty of room to run, fetch, and sniff.
• Puppy Playground equipment made specifically for dogs.
• Large indoor play areas with appropriate space/staff/dog ratios.
• Dog Friendly Splash Pad during the Summer.
• Industry leading software that allows our clients to go online to register,  schedule visits,  make payments, upload picture, update vaccination information and much more!

We are excited to share our vision of a clean, safe, and fun dog daycare, grooming and suite boarding with the Fox Valley.  Conveniently located 1 mile east of the Outagamie county dog park on North(land) Avenue in Little Chute.
