I dropped off my pug here for a daycare session. Hours are great - 7am to 8pm on weekdays - which lets me stay at work later. Facilities are clean and it's well staffed. I would recommend K9s only to a friend

I used K9s only for the first time recently. This was for a long stretch of time and I was worried that my Husky would not be able to adjust. Upon returning from my trip having boarded him for the longest we've ever been apart, he had such a good time that he whined the entire way home because he had to leave. Would recommend for happy doggos, but can make the parents feel sad from how much the dog enjoys it;

We have been taking our pup Neptune here since he was a puppy and we have nothing but positive things to say! First, Neptune LOVES coming in for daycare. Jamie and the staff always make him feel welcome and comfortable. You can really tell they care about the pups. Second, Neptune was also able to go through the 3-week board and train with Britt, and it helped tremendously with his manners especially with jumping and not dropping things he shouldn't have. Lastly, we recently took him for his first full grooming session here and he looks amazing. Here are a couple photos. They also do a lot of fun things for the dogs around the holidays and in the summer. Highly recommended if you are looking for an all round place for your dog.

I was never a big fan of "doggy daycares, " but now that I have a rescue dog with severe anxiety and attachment issues, he needs somewhere to go when I can't be with him. K9s Only has been a lifesaver and they are SO patient with him. They even suggested he do "trial runs" to get used to the employees, so you can tell everyone there genuinely cares about the dogs they work with. I really never expected to trust strangers with my dog, but now I'll never go anywhere else. The space is also super clean, welcoming - even fairly quiet for a daycare! So send your pups here! They'll be in great hands.
