I can only go by our dogs - they are excited to go, happy to come home and utterly and wonderfully exhausted from running and playing all day. Staff is great. Car-hop drop-off and pick-up is a nice bonus for doggie guardians!

My dog Comet loses her mind when we say "Day Care". Comet is a great dog and walks on heel when we are out. Except for when she gets out of the truck at Doggy Day Care & Spa. She is pulling hard to get inside and play with her friends. I don't know if the staff knows my name, but they always greet Comet by name. I'm pretty sure it's because they love her almost as much as I do. And isn't that what you want when you drop your best friend off somewhere? They also have reasonable rates on grooming. Which they are great at!

My dog absolutely loves going to daycare. The staff cares for each dog too! We couldn't recommend a better place for our dog to hang out each week.

Ferguson has been going to Doggy Daycare & Spa for a year now. I am so happy I found this place (we have used both locations). The staff is great and I feel secure knowing that my fur child is well cared for during the day or if he has to stay overnight at "camp". He talks very loudly when he arrives but his tail is always wagging and he is happily exhausted when I pick him up at the end of the day.

Their staff is wonderful, prices are very reasonable. The Establishment is clean, dogs that are there for daycare all seem to get along real good. I have taken my dog there for nearly 10 years for grooming. She loves it and we love how silky and nice she is when she comes back. Very impressed!
