Whether they stay for the day or need overnight accommodations, you'll have peace of mind that your pet is safe and happy with us. Your dog will enjoy indoor and outdoor play time, swimming, digging, sunbathing, fetching, and tug matches while socializing with lots of new friends. And that means no cages, no two or three dogs out at a time play, and no assembly line interaction. I take owning a pet very seriously, so making sure that the love of my life, Lucy, is happy is a high priority to me.
Services
Dog Days is dedicated to providing a safe, clean, and loving environment for all of our clients. We firmly believe that cage-free pack play promotes a healthy and disciplined disposition for all of our dogs. Our knowledgeable staff will ensure that your dog will leave happy, tired, and excited for their next visit.
Lucy loves all the other dogs that she gets to play with every day, but if truth be told, I think she loves the humans the most. She has no idea that the reason I chose Dog Days and have continued to take her there year after year is because of the people that run it. We are both always greeted by name every drop-off and pick-up and that is just the beginning.

I visited/toured 8 different pet boarding places before selecting Dog Days Tempe for our fur baby. I love the couches they have available for him to relax. They provide toys and play-time. I also like the outdoor area because in the summer when it's super hot, they can water down the concrete and it also has shade. They place baby pools for the dogs to play as well.

One thing I also noticed is when I drop off our dog, there isn't any crazy barking.the dogs are all happy and content, no anxious barking.it's quiet and peaceful. We also appreciated the videos they post every day on Snapchat so we could check on our dog while away from home to see him playing and having fun.brings peace of mind knowing that he's well cared for.

My three senior dogs love Dog Days! Mike & Gabby run a great facility here. It is easy to book. I feel confident that my dogs are having a good time while there. I had gone to one other dog daycare in a different state where one of my dogs was so anxious I felt horrible bringing her. That doesn't happen with Dog Days. :

My mini Aussie has been going there since he was four months old. He loves Mike and Gabby. When we get there he runs to the door, he is so excited. They take great care of him. I feel comfortable leaving him there because I know he is being treated great and he loves his dog friends.

I don't write reviews often but this place is a wonderful place to bring your dog. They truly care about your animal's welfare. Our dog has been dealing with some overall anxiety which is why we cant leave her at home alone and why we bring her here. When she started showing signs of her anxiety at the daycare Gaby (who I think is the owner) immediately brought it to our attention.

She said she wanted the daycare to be a place where she could be happy so they did the best they could to make her happy. Unfortunately her anxiety was too much for us to let her stay there in the unforseeable future, but I truly appreciate the staff going above and beyond for her as I'm sure they do for all the dogs there. Also their prices can't be beat anywhere else. I highly recommend this place for all your doggie care!

We've been taking our dogs here for almost 3 years. The staff is amazing and personal: they know you and your dog so well! Such a great small business run by passionate and sweet people. Our dogs love being there even more than at our home, and are always tired when they get back because they've had a great day of play. We trust Dog Days for everything from baths, to day care, to boarding and have never been disappointed.

We LOVE dog days! Our dog became a regular there during our temporary 3 month stay in Tempe and he loved it. We were more than comfortable boarding him there, as the staff is very friendly and you can tell they love to care for dogs. We also frequently took him to daycare. Highly recommend!

Boarded my doggies here while we were moving. They were so sweet to my poochies. They came home so happy.

Our puppy LOVES this place! So do we. She has SO MUCH FUN! The staff cares so much for the pups and have been AMAZING during this crazy time in our lives! They are so kind. We have gone to another fancy place close to our home but I would pick these guys ANY DAY because our puppy is always so happy to go and play. I know it because I watch videos of her in both places and she is happiest at Dog Days in Tempe. It's close to our business so we have been blessed to have found them.

I don't normally write reviews, but I this company deserves its praise. They are a nice local business that really have a personal touch. The owners and staff are incredibly friendly. My dog gets very nervous and he loves the owners here and doesn't even look back. It has a very nice inside and outside area for both big and small dogs. If you are unsure on taking new puppies or dogs to a daycare or are looking for one, you will find happiness leaving them here. Good pricing too.

This is a great place. The people are very friendly and love dogs. My fur child loves going there and being able to run around with her friends all day. They have a outside area with a covered area also so she can go outside too. The hours are good too. They fit into my work schedule and it is less than 10 minutes from my work, so it is convenient. I would recommend this place over petsmart anyday. They do such a great job there and my dog is always happy and tired when I get her.

Our pups absolutely love it here! They are SO excited when they arrive to run in and play with the other pups. The daycare has helped socialize our puppy immensely, she used to be terrified of other dogs and people and now she plays with other dogs and comes up to new people - Dog Days has truly been a life saver! My husband and I feel at ease leaving the pups with them, we know that they are taking great care of them. We regularly use them for both daycare and boarding and highly recommend!

If I could give this 0 stars I would. I walked in for my appointment and the girl (gabby) didn't even act like she liked dogs. Barely said hi to my frenchie and took him back to a place I couldn't see- was given no information about where she was taking him or what kind of dogs my pup was going to be with. I saw her let him off the leash and TURN AROUND to let him free.

As an owner of a small dog, I have a lot of anxiety about my dog around other dogs (which she didn't seem to care about) and would like to be informed about where he is. She was not comforting at all and did not make me feel comfortable leaving my pup there. I would recommend her getting a job that didn't involve dogs, because she clearly didn't care about mine.

I am most definitely taking my dog to a DIFFERENT doggy day care place. This place does not have people watching your dogs 24/7- she told me. And honestly if there was someone else who greeted my dog and told me that my dog was taken care of, or any information about the facility, I would've considered leaving my pup there. But gabby was absolutely awful and did not give me any reassurance that my dog was going to be okay. Oh and there's no air conditioning, which my frenchie would not life through.

I have visited five different dog day cares in Tempe area and I think Dog Days is the best. All the staff here is friendly. The indoor and outdoor play areas are nice and clean. Look how happy my boston terrier is at the daycare! Thank you Dog Days for taking good care of my baby!

If I could give more stars I would! I have been taking my pup to dog days for about 2 years, and she has stayed overnight many times due to long work trips. Mike and Gabby (and the entire staff) have always been extremely accommodating to last minute needs, billing questions, and anything else that might have come up. The day care is exceptionally clean and you can tell off of the dogs love staying here.

I boarded my Golden Retriever with Dog Days for years and she loved going every time. I took my new puppy in for day care today and she clearly loved it! I took her somewhere else the day prior and when I picked her up she was shaking and distressed.not today at Dog Days! She was happy and wagging her tail the whole way home. I moved further away from Dog Days, but the drive is definitely worth the quality of care that I expect for my fur-baby.

I can't say enough good things about this place! Everyone there is fabulous and great with the dogs. My dog can't wait to go and play with her furry friends. I've also used them for boarding while out of town with no concerns or complaints at all

The staff is very friendly. Love that dogs are not caged except for sleeping. And they get outside time. Very accommodating. Drop off day care is very easy/fast and affordable.

Let me introduce you to my friends at Dog Days! I have been going here for over a year and can't say enough good things about this staff. The entire staff knows my dog's name and he is very excited to be dropped off. When I am picking him up they update me on the shenanigans he got into or how bizzare he acted ( I'm the one with the weird dog).

I would suggest everyone drop their dogs off here and you can know that they are being taken care of. P.S I am moving to North Phoenix and think a Dog Days 2 is much needed in that area!

We love this place and so do our dogs. The staff is super friendly and they take very good care our our girls. The owners really take the time to get to know the dogs. They have really helped our rescue, Rosie, come out of her shell.

We really like this place, is always clean and the staff is so lovely with all the pups! When we were looking for a place, we visited aprox. 7 other places, and Dog Days was our election, we are sure that we took the best choice.

So far, I've had a great experience with Dog Days. I have a very high energy 10month old goldendoodle. He's stayed a couple nights so far with Dog Days and seemed well cared for, in good shape, and happy when I picked him up. The employees there have always been very helpful and pleasant, overall I'm happy I found them! It's a great alternative to regular boarding, I highly recommend this spot if your dog is friendly and active. As mentioned by some other reviews, the only draw-back is simply that there's no grass or green space.

Took my pup here while I was out of town for the weekend and he LOVED it! He was so happy from the time we got there forgetting we were even there and had such a blast! The facility is a good size with plenty of room and a good outdoor area. We will be back.

I signed my dog up for boarding last weekend for 3 nights. I have never left any of my dogs with anyone else other than family so I was very nervous. But the staff was incredibly friendly and patient. They showed me the facility and answered all my questions. I felt very comfortable leaving my little buddy with them. I called to check on him once a day and the staff was very nice and patient with me.

They told me everything he did that day. When I picked him up he looked very happy and the staff said he had a very good time playing with the other dogs. I'm over picky about my dogs care and I can say they have my trust. I would say the pricing is fair for a small business. Grooming is $20 but isn't done by a pro groomer which seemed expensive to not be done professionally. That would be the only thing I would say can be seen as a negative as my first experience with this place.

Our dogs have been going here for several years and we could not be happier. The staff is great and our two pups come home happy and tired. In fact I'm a little jealous, the dogs don't even look back to say goodbye, they are too excited to start playing. Great prices as well. Don't miss thrifty Thursday.

I recently moved from the Midwest and was looking for a place to take my dog for daycare. I'm a self proclaimed overbearing dog mom who wants the best for my fur baby. I was thoroughly impressed by Dog Days when I took my dog in for his evaluation. Just a tip, when you go for the eval you get 2 hours of free daycare! They have a separate area for large and small dogs and give them ample time inside and outside.

I have a very high energy dog and as soon as he gets in my car after his day at daycare he immediately falls asleep. I know he's in good hands while he is at daycare and it really helps to put my mind at ease. While it may be slightly more expensive than other locations you may find, I feel like it is money well spent. My dog drags me to the front door in the morning, so I know he enjoys his time there!

At the end of the day when your dog is stiff and slow moving to get out of the car when you get home, you know they've had a busy day. Zoey loves it at Dog Days. She happily walks in during the morning. She is happy to see me when I pick her up. Sometimes bounding out still wet from her water play or another dog's slobber on her from playing.

On the days she goes to Dog Days, she retires to bed by 8pm. Can barely get up to go potty prior to calling it a night. She is dead to the world. Dog Days has open free play areas with indoor/outdoor access. So you know they are getting fresh air. The staff is friendly and knows their dogs/parents by name. I'm glad I was introduced to Dog Days.
