I am always as kind as possible, but I won't be scolded like a child. I would have lost it, but I chose the higher ground. My baby and I aren't returning.

5-Star Review - Outstanding Care for My Boys!…read more I recently trusted Muddy Paws to care for my two dogs, Prince and King, while I was away on a cruise -- and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the staff was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. Both Prince and King were treated like family. I received updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing they were safe, comfortable, and well-loved. When I picked them up, they were happy, healthy, and clearly enjoyed their time there. It's not easy leaving your pets behind, but Muddy Paws made the entire process stress-free. Their facility is clean, organized, and run by people who truly love what they do. If you're looking for a trustworthy, dependable place to board your pets, Muddy Paws is absolutely the best. Prince, King, and I are officially loyal customers! -- John

Even though we could've taken Her with us, we prayed on it and thought it best for Her to stay. She hadn't been with anyone else since we got her at 2 months old and now she's 2 years old. Ms.Fiona and her family at "Pawtastic Pack" was(is) an answered prayer, because she's our furbaby(Heaven Pup). I prayed for Her, after losing loved ones so close together was so hard, She's a great comforter. After meeting Ms. Fiona and her family, my spirit was was at ease, we knew she would be safe and in great hands. Although I cried when we dropped her off, I was still at ease. We received pictures and video updates, she did look a little worried the 1st 2 days & I did cry again, however, once I saw the video of her interactions with the other furbabies I was able to enjoy the Beautiful People & Island of Jamaica. THE PAWTASTIC PACK is a welcomed home away from home and I love the fact they are not in crates, even doing bedtime. She is part of THE PAWTASTIC FAMILY, whenever we need a loving and gentle Home away from home. Blessings

I started out living this daycare and Fiona was great but her mom apparently started helping out…read moremore and was not nearly as attentive. My dog was attacked by another during his 8 hr daycare stay. We picked him up at around 4pm and later found out that this happened at around noon. We were not notified and my dog was not taken to vet. When we picked him up we immediately noticed he was limping and she (Fionas mom) LIED. I put my foot down and inspected him on their front lawn and found the pictured wound actively bleeding. She continued to lie saying nothing happened and she doesn't know how that got there and even tried saying it happened before we dropped him off (when he was perfectly fine at drop off and I KNOW there were no wounds because I brushed him RIGHT BEFORE dropping him off so I would have seen it). Only after we left and took him to an emergency vet did we get a text from Fiona saying that a dog jumped on him, attacking him and had to be pulled off my dog. This is a very condensed version of the full story but they were deceptive and didn't have my dog's well being in mind as he would have been taken to vet immediately - not laying in pain bleeding for 4 hours. Think twice before entrusting your babies to this daycare.

Butters absolutely loves him and goes nuts when he comes over. It makes me so happy to see my dog's pure and complete joy when she is with Jason.

Over the last two years Jason has been a part of our family, taking such amazing care of our dog, and treating both us and her with the utmost kindness. He's fun, he's attentive, he goes the extra mile (sometimes literally when he would take Gertie for an impromptu afternoon outing). We cannot recommend Pet Sounds enough. The only thing that would make them better is if he worked in Chevy Chase. You should be so lucky as to have Jason taking care of your pet.

Nic has been training Parker since she was a puppy, and I truly could not be happier with the…read moreexperience. He is patient, knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely cares about the dogs he works with. From the very beginning, Nic took the time to understand Parker's personality and helped build her confidence while also teaching her good behavior and obedience. What I appreciate most is that Nic doesn't just train the dog, he also teaches you how to work with your dog so the training continues at home. Parker has come such a long way, and I know a lot of that is because of Nic's consistency, skill, and dedication. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, experienced, and amazing with dogs, I highly recommend Nic.

I cannot begin to express my gratitude for Five Pups. The number of times my fiancé and I have had to work late or travel out of town last minute-- Arthur and Five Pups always comes through. They are so flexible, picking up and dropping off our little guys when we need and I never feel stressed about it. I provide their food and medications and feel comforted that they're in good hands. We get texts with lovely pictures of our babies playing (attached). I know they have a good time, because they literally run away from us and to the van, and never want to come home when they're being dropped off (*cries*). They're always home smelling fresh (and bathed), and exhausted from playing. Incredibly grateful to Five Pups and the top notch daycare and boarding. Highly highly recommended.

This is hands down the best dog daycare spot in DC!! We absolutely love sending Ruby, our 10 month…read moreold mini Australian Shepherd, there for the day. 5 reasons why you should send your dogs to them: 1. They take great care of the dogs and will send you pictures throughout the day so you can see how they're doing. I'm always jealous of Ruby because she's clearly having way more fun than me. 2. Your dog gets to run around OUTSIDE with other dogs during the day (weather permitting of course). I once asked how much time they spend outside and they made it clear that if it's uncomfortable for you to be outside (too cold, too hot, etc.) then it's uncomfortable for them to be outside and they bring them in. 3. Your dog will be super excited to see Arthur when he comes to pick them up so you know they love them and take care of them like they're their own. 4. Did I mention Arthur will come to you and pick up your dog?! We live in Columbia Heights for reference. 5. If you have a younger dog or a rescue that's the only dog in the house, it's a fantastic way for your dog to get in a whole day of socialization and playtime while you're at work. Especially if they're a pandemic baby! One last thing. When we first started sending her, we had lots of questions about the facilities (since they're in Indian Head, MD, we didn't really want to drive over there to check them out ourselves) and they took the time to answer every one. They clearly care about the health and safety of the dogs in their care and have invested time and money into their setup. I can't remember the details of all the recent upgrades. But I'm sure if you asked they'd be happy to share that info with you.
