Dexter’s Dog Bus
Meet the Royal Chariot—our fully customized dog bus designed to bring comfort, safety, and convenience straight to your doorstep. Outfitted with climate control, non-slip flooring, and individual secured crates, the Chariot ensures every pup travels in a clean, cozy, and stress-free environment. Each dog has their own designated space, allowing for a calm and organized ride no matter the destination. Our bus runs Tuesday to Thursday each week.
We’ve taken extra care to make the Chariot a safe and positive experience, with constant supervision during travel and careful loading and unloading procedures. Whether heading out for play, training, or adventure, the Chariot is how your dog rides in style.
Day in the Life
Morning Pick Ups: 8am - 10am
The day begins with excitement as our Chariot rolls through the neighborhood to pick up each pup for their adventure. Dogs are greeted by our trained handlers and safely loaded onto the bus, where they settle in alongside their furry friends. With cozy seating and a calm atmosphere, the ride sets the tone for a fun and structured day ahead.
Drive to the Park & Playtime: 10am - 12pm
Once everyone’s on board, we head to one of our fully fenced, privately rented parks for morning playtime. Here, the dogs enjoy off-leash fun, socialization, and structured enrichment under constant supervision. It’s the perfect opportunity to burn energy, practice good manners, and build confidence with their pack.
Pack Walk Drop Offs & Pick Ups: 12pm - 1pm
After play, it’s time to return home for some and welcome others for their afternoon outing. We begin our mid-day route, dropping off morning pack walkers and picking up the next group of excited pups. Each transition is handled with care to ensure smooth, safe exchanges.
Drive to the Park & Playtime: 1pm - 3pm
With the afternoon group on board, we head back out to the park for another round of exercise and social time. Dogs get to stretch their legs, enjoy structured play, and practice group walking and listening skills. This session helps keep their minds engaged and their bodies happy.
Daycare and Pack Walk Drop offs: 3pm - 5pm
As the day winds down, we begin dropping off our tired and satisfied pups. Whether they spent the day with us for daycare or just joined for a pack walk, every dog returns home relaxed, enriched, and ready for a good nap. The Chariot returns to base, ready to do it all again tomorrow!
Chariot Safety
At Dexter’s Kingdom, the safety and well-being of every pup on board our Chariot dog bus is our highest priority. We’ve designed our transport service with care, intention, and industry best practices to ensure your dog has a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience from the moment they’re picked up to the moment they return home.
All dogs riding the Chariot must wear a secure, properly fitted harness for the duration of the ride. This ensures they are safely anchored during transport and helps prevent injury while loading, unloading, or in transit. Don’t have a harness or forgot to pack one? No problem—harnesses are available to rent for \$5 per occurrence to ensure your dog can still safely ride that day. To maintain the health and safety of every dog on board, we require that all passengers are up to date on their Rabies, DHP, and Bordetella vaccinations. Before being approved for Chariot services, every dog will also complete a behavioral assessment with our team. This helps us get to know your dog, ensure they’re a good fit for group settings, and create a safe environment for all riders.
Our Chariot is fully insured and maintained to the highest standards, and all of our drivers are fully licensed and trained in dog handling and transport safety. We take great pride in offering a professional, reliable, and secure experience—so you can feel confident knowing your pup is in excellent hands every step of the way.
Chariot Services
Chariot Pack Walks
Our Chariot Pack Walks combine safe transportation with structured group walks in fully fenced, private parks. We’ll pick your pup up and bring them to a secure, enriching environment where they can socialize, explore, and burn energy alongside a small group of well-matched dogs. Led by trained handlers, these walks focus on building confidence, calmness, and positive social behavior. It’s the perfect mid-day adventure for pups who love to move and be part of a pack.
Chariot Daycare
Our Chariot Daycare offers a full day of adventure, enrichment, and socialization for your pup—all starting with a safe, comfy ride on our dog bus. Your dog will spend the morning exploring a private, fully fenced park with their pack, followed by an afternoon of rest and structured play at our quiet farm. With small group sizes and trained handlers, every day is designed to be safe, engaging, and tailored to your dog’s needs. It’s the perfect option for pups who thrive on routine, outdoor time, and fun with friends.
