The Complete Cleaning & Sanitation SOP for Dog Boarding, Daycare & Grooming Facilities

One parvo case can shut your facility down for weeks. 🐾

Give your team a written, step-by-step cleaning and sanitation system they follow the same way every shift, so a sick dog never turns into an outbreak.

Most outbreaks don't happen because staff didn't clean. They happen because people cleaned the wrong way, with the wrong product, or didn't wait long enough for it to work. This SOP takes the guesswork out: what to clean, how to clean it, which chemicals at what dilution, how long they sit, and exactly what to do when a sick dog shows up.

WHAT YOU GET

• 📄 Full Cleaning & Sanitation SOP (26 pages): daily cleaning, deep cleaning, disease prevention, chemical mixing, equipment standards and staff accountability
• 📊 Two dilution versions: EPA-label dilutions or industry-strong dilutions, with a short guide to help you choose
• 🎨 Two 24" × 36" wall charts for your chemical mixing station
• 🦠 Parvo & ringworm response protocols: isolation, PPE, cleaning and owner communication
• 🧪 Product-specific dilution guidance for Kennelsol HC, Odoban, bleach, Dawn and Simple Green
• ✍️ Staff acknowledgment forms, a PPE matrix and a customization checklist
• 📖 Quick-start and customization guide so you can make it yours in an afternoon

ALREADY HAVE CLEANING CHECKLISTS?

Checklists tell your team what to clean. This SOP tells them exactly how: which product, what dilution, how long it sits, and what protection to wear. It's the training and reference manual behind your daily checklists.
