The Dog’s Paw has been the absolute best daycare for my Shih Tzu Nikki. She started going about four years ago and immediately took to it. The minute we walked in the door Nikki would strut over to the kennel door, tail wagging, not even a goodbye to her momma and had a staffer take her in.
Recently Nikki became very ill with congestive heart failure while in their care. She was having seizures so the staff called Melissa, the owner to help manage the situation. Mel took her to the vet, got her medicated and kept her in her home for a week, ensuring utmost care and comfort while I made my way back home from Africa. She sent daily updates and photos so I could see improvements. And she rooted for miss Nikki the whole time!! Unfortunately, a week after my return Nikki passed away peacefully. She was 15.5 years old.
Never ever will I forget what the staff did for Nikki and the compassion they showed her. I am so grateful she was in their care when all this happened - I certainly would not have known what to do if this happened at home. Love you gals. Thanks again for your love for Nikki!! Keep it up!

Having gone on vacation, Our guy decided he wasn't going to let his sitter in our house. We were 6000 miles away and The Dog's Paw came to our rescue. They lovingly took him in when we were absolutely in a bind. I just picked him up two weeks later. He is happy and he is healthy. I would absolutely take him back there. Our guy is so reactive to people and Dogs. Their training allowed us to continue our vacation without worry. Between emails and Facebook we were able to Check-in and see how comfortable he had become. I would give them 20 stars if I could.
Thank you so much, Melissa and gang. 💕

The Dogs Paw is the best place to bring your dog for training, boarding and daycare. We have brought Miss Peach, our 1 year old GSP, to training since she was 10 weeks and it is the best decision we ever could have made.
Melissa and her staff are extremely knowledgeable, and provide so many training resources for you to build the most healthy relationship with your dog. Miss Peach has amazing house manners, bulletproof recall and is able to come to patios with us without being reactive, because of The Dog’s Paw training methods. We absolutely could not have picked a better group of people to trust with our dog.
We have boarded Miss Peach with The Dogs Paw many times- anywhere from 2-11 days. Every time she returns, we can tell she has been well taken care of. The relationship she has with all Dogs Paw staff makes us so comfortable to leave her for boarding. We know she will be safe when playing with other dogs as the dogs are supervised by staff who understand dog body language and know when to interrupt unhealthy play.
If you need a place for training, boarding and daycare for your dogs, I cannot recommend The Dogs Paw enough.
PS- Miss Peach says thank you!!

The pet resort is very organized and efficient! The first time I went they wouldn't take Emma without proof.... I understand and respect that. Close to town and now I just book online, pay online and drop off puppy...
