I have had my dog with Doggi Zone since June. He goes to "summer camp "all year long. I have boarded him twice. There is no place on earth he would rather be. He absolutely loves it and I know he is safe and having a blast while I work.

Our puppy has been going to day care at DogiZone for six months now (since he was 5 months old) and LOVES it. We recently enrolled him in the two week Training Camp to help with leash pulling and manners. I am super impressed with the progress he's made in such a short time. The private lessons and group trainings have also helped us reinforce what he's learned at home. Jessica, Milton, Shannon, and Candice were all fantastic and patient even through the rough spots like the first day of Elementary School where Finn barked nonstop and thought he was at a party. I highly recommend the training and daycare at DogiZone.

My little long-haired chihuahua loved her spa day with Lupe! She doesn't adapt easily to strangers, and her groomers have always made her feel comfortable and loved. I appreciated their covid protocols and curbside check-in. Most importantly, she was finished within an hour, a great boon since I live far away and waited to pick her up.

This review is a shout out to our dog Rosie's trainer, Jessica. We had four training sessions with her and she was amazing. She helped us tackle our challenges and sent us home with strategies that worked! I highly recommend Jessica to help train your dog!

We left our 1.5 year old German Shepherd at DogiZone for four days. My husband and I are definitely the kind of people who treat our dog like our baby so it wasn't easy for us, but we are very happy with the way Adonis was treated. They also groomed him, which was exciting for us because he can be a handful to groom, and they were able to make it happen. We will definitely take him there again in the future!

I was so impressed with DogiZone! The customer service is outstanding. I had a tour of the training facility and the place is impecable. The staff are friendly and very attentive. I would recommend this place to anyone that needs boarding or training is just not for my budget I couldn't afford it at this time. I do plan to comeback for group training and dog activity in a near future.

I had a great experience with my dog training sessions. From the introductory session, and throughout the training sessions, the trainers were very knowledgeable and helpful. The techniques and commands we learned started working right away. I would recommend DogiZone's trainers to anyone!
