When left unattended, dogs tend to get into all sorts of mischief, from chewing up leather footwear to losing your life savings during online poker games. Protect your assets with today's Groupon: for $45, you get five days of doggy daycare plus a free trial day at Wagging Tails (a $90 value). Wagging Tails houses hounds seven days a week, from 7:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. weekdays and from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. weekends.

Wagging Tails' experienced canine caretakers shower pooches with personalized attention and supervised playtime in a 4,500-square-foot paw paradise. The first visit begins with a tour and introduction to familiarize furry friends with the sights, sounds, and lingering Lassie smells of their new surroundings. Afterward, animals with up-to-date vaccinations and docile dispositions can play for up to 12 hours a day under the watch of attentive puppy sitters and observant webcams. Hounds can make friends, play, and socialize in this safe, loving environment, and take periodic naps if requested by their parent or guardian. During each visit, chaperones cosset each collared guest with custom quality time, which can include belly rubs, ear scratches, and moral support during never-ending games of Capture the Tail.
