They are the best for boarding and daycare in my opinion. I've been using Doggie District for a few years.

We like Doggie District. They treat our puppy Sonnie like she was one of their own. The only feedback I would give is I'd like to see more outdoor playtime, of course, when the weather permits. But I highly recommend them. read more

I like this pet boarding and daycare. I left both my dogs there for 20 days and both of them returned home; calm and healthy. This is the first time doing overnight boarding and it's for a long stay. I highly recommend them. It's clean, staff are friendly and good follow-ups. I removed a star, so 4 stars instead of 5. One point of contention, when I picked up my dogs to settle the bill, a tip selection was included in the final bill. First, I have boarded my dogs in the past at other facilities, there has never been a tip requested when settling the bill. While I think the staff are very professional, the changes in staff and shifts precludes to make a tip as I do not know which staff actually worked with my dogs. The establishment should be paying their staff adequately as to not request a tip. As most groomers do get tips but no grooming service was used here, just boarding. read more

Ever since starting to come here 3 years ago I haven't regretted it. Tried a few places out to get a feeling of how my pup would enjoy it and this one just gave good vibes back and Hobbes (the Frenchbulldog) had the biggest smile ever after the 1st day. So glad I found this place as he lives coming to socialize and play with all his fur friends! Comes home tired and doesn't move for like 2-days...not sure if it's all the play and fun or just that he goes so hard with everyone but not disappointed on my end. Would recommend day in and day out for your day care needs as the whole staff is awesome and seems when I'm picking up my guy that all the dogs that I've encountered truly enjoy themselves! Thanks again! - one happy dog dad P.s. - for some reason he is photogenic and allows them to have fun him him read more

We love Doggie District! We have a very energetic dog and he gets so excited when we tell him he's going to "play with his friends." We do daycare and have done overnights in the past. Our pup,Fynn, gets the opportunity to socialize and play and comes home tired from a full day of play. The staff remembers us when we come in and has always been incredibly kind and helpful. read more

I've been bringing my pups to Doggie District for over 5 years now. It started with our first pup, and now that he passed over the rainbow bridge recently and we have a new puppy, we are taking our new guy there too. We love DD and, most importantly, our dogs have always been SUPER excited to go play with their friends there. I love the staff... they are obviously dog lovers! Both of our pups run right to them as they burst through the front door. LOL! And they're always greeted with delight which makes ME smile. DD runs a responsible business as well. I've never had an issue with their facility or with them keeping track of prepaid sessions etc. They are a professional staff while also being very engaging with both me and my dogs. I highly recommend them!!! read more

We just started coming here and can't say more positive things about the staff and facility! Our 1.5yr GSD has never been to daycare let alone a dog park and the staff was so welcoming and gave a great feedback and updates thorough the day while we were away. Needless to say Ranger had a blast and couldn't wait to come back! read more

Doggie District has been great to my pup & I ! Cookie absolutely loves going & seeing her friends. She loves the associates as well, we enter & you can tell there's no doubt she loves attending here. I love how awesome the associates are, when it's time for pickup I love getting updates & being told how her day went! Overall awesome staff! read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE! And so does my pup Nike! We do daycare here and have also done overnight boarding. They always go above and beyond! My dog has sensitive skin and sometimes when they notice his skin is red they go as far as to put cream on him, which is not even part of their job, but they do it because they care. Everyone is so sweet, they know my dog by name... and every time I'm there I notice they know EVERYONE'S dog by name. My dog loves it and he gets excited every time we pull up! I've heard horror stories about other places, but we've had the best experience here. I used to take my dog to PetSmart and while they were nice there, the dogs play inside in such a small room. At doggie district they have different yards with slides and even kiddie pools! Can't say enough good things about them! read more

I found this place online when searching for a great place to take care of our English Bulldog for a few hours while we were unloading our POD. Doggie District was able to squeeze us in last minute, and give Mickey a wonderful 3 hours of care. I couldn't be happier with finding them, and will be reaching out to them for all future needs for our Bully. I highly recommend! read more

We've been taking out big crazy dog here for over 5 years and we love it! All the staff are wonderful and love our boy almost as much as he loves them and LOVES going there for daycare and boarding. He has some "special" needs and everyone is just awesome about handling it. The outside play zones have shaded areas, have jungle gyms and kiddie pools. HIGHLY RECOMEND!! read more

The service at Doggie District in Paradise Valley is nothing short of exceptional. I had to board a very scared, "rescue" Mastiff, Fiona Bella, with several medications and a bandaged open wound. The Resort Manager, Tera, stayed late to check her in and give her medications as well as to calm her down. Kallie, Erin and Ana gave extra care in brushing, walking and feeding her, as well as "cuddle time". Stacey, the trainer came to look in on her and ensure that she was adapting and comfortable. There is no substitute for the caring and compassionate employees at this facility. Obviously, the GM Kelly Daniels takes pride in the immaculate facility and the training of its professional staff. Thanks again! Shelly Zeise and Fiona Bella read more

Update. The coordinator for this facility contacted me after I posted the previous review. Apologies were expressed, but the facility help themselves accountable, and offered extra free days. So the Fantastic customer service, albeit a little late, earned them another star. Jinx really does enjoy his time there and comes home very happy read more

Man I can't say enough good things about this place. I was nervous to bring my new puppy somewhere but knew I couldn't leave him at home all day so i took him here on the recommendation of a friend. They walked me around and showed me the place and said he had to go through orientation to make sure he was a good fit with the other dogs and vice versa which i think is great. He was accepted and now loves coming here. We pull up and see the big dog out front and Dre starts crying he's so anxious to get out of the car. They all know him by name when he comes and he loves everyone there. They do adorable parties and send pictures of him and he passes out that night when he gets home he's played so hard. If I can't be with him, I'm glad he can be here! read more

This is the best doggy daycare ever. They don't have restrictions on breeds, they give all dogs a chance. They have the best trainer who makes sure all the attendants are trained and know how to care for dogs. All my dogs love being there. I have recommended several people who now have all their dogs there. I can't say enough good things about this doggie daycare. They're the best!!! read more

My boyfriend and I found this place and decided to put our 2 dogs for day care. First time was a free trial, all day which was amazing! We boarded them again over the weekend and our dogs LOVED it! Staff is so friendly, attentive and very knowledgeable. It's so wonderful that they give you feedbacks. We are traveling the end of the month and will be boarding them here for a week and we're hoping that they'll be well taken care of and they'll get lots of love! Thank you Doggie District! read more

Our dog Ellie absolutely loves coming to Doggie District! From the very beginning the staff are always excited to see her and put our mind at ease when dropping her off. When we pick her up she is always happy and tired!! Thank you for taking such good care of Ellie!! read more

I've been bringing my dog here on and off for about two years. I've always been satisfied with the service and my dog LOVES coming here. They offer day care packages and will frequently have themed extra play time as an add on option. The extra play time has consisted of pictures with Santa, ice cream parties, scavenger hunt, and chicken and waffles day. They include a picture and an email recap with a digital copy of the picture. They also frequently post photos on Facebook. Even though they give the dogs breaks during the day my dog always comes home tired and she's no couch potato. I don't know if they've been under new management but there have definitely been positive changes over the past year. The staff is highly engaged, the lobby has been spruced up and I've also noticed private training sessions occurring in the lobby. read more

"Gertrude needed some extra attention due to a broken foot and everyone was great with her. Thank you!" I've been taking my girls here for years- I have no worries when they are at the Doggie District. read more

We recently just toured this place and I would NEVER let my dog go here. We went around noon on the weekend and the girl took us through where the dogs were kept. First off all the lights were off when we walked in and the dogs were just sitting in the dark. It was freezing in there and had no outside light coming in. The dogs looked so scared and miserable I felt like crying. Some big dogs were put into a tiny little box kennel, not even enough room to turn around. Then she took us to the "dog suites" which instead of a box the dogs were in a glass kennel with TVs (that weren't on). Besides all the dogs looking absolutely terrified and cold, I saw no water or food for them. One of the dogs was in a large metal kennel in the middle of the floor with nothing to lay on and was just shaking. I feel SO bad for any dog that would have to spend time in this type of hell hole. read more

Have been bringing my dogs to them for a few years now for boarding and grooming. Always very friendly and attentive, and well aware that I don't want them to get lonely when boarding them, but can't afford to spend a bunch of money. The pups always come back in good humor and frame of mind. Grooming is affordable and they do what you ask (even though they haven't had a groomer in-house the last 2 times I've inquired...hoping that changes as the pandemic eases up). read more

My dog does many overnight here and she is also excited when we arrive. Kelly the pack leader is wonderful and in many times has gone above and beyond for me and my dog Maddie. I also go to the Tempe location and they take such good care and always excited to see us. I can tell everyone that works here loves the dogs and takes care of them as if they are their own. Thank you for the great service and always working with me and my crazy travel schedule. read more

Doggie District is AMAZING! I have two very active pups that attend 3 days per week. All I have to say is "daycare" and they race down the stairs to get into the car. The staff is great and tire my pups out with play and affection. I would recommend Doggie District all dog parents! read more

We previously had our 3 dogs stay at Doggie District a year ago & it had a completely different vibe this time when we walked in . First of all the gals at the front counter seemed irritated by us being there & we're not friendly at all. Next , the frantic barking & growling we heard coming from the kennel area ignited concern in both my husband and myself. We told them we would decide if we would board them at Doggie District later in the week & that we would look into a sitter from Rover.com. They could have cared less & seemed thrilled to not have to deal with any customers anymore . Upon reading the previous Yelp reviews, I am so glad we decided to not use this business , not sure what has happened but, hope it gets back on track as , the location for us is such a plus . read more

I found out about this place through a friend when I relocated to paradise valley and I'm so happy I did! My chocolate lab, Sedona, is my world and she absolutely loves coming to play. They even have special "party" days with a different theme weekly. Check out their calendar!! The staff is amazing and they remembered her name even after one visit!!! The facility is clean and drop off/pick up is so convenient!!! Thanks for all you do Doggie District!!!! My girl Sedona always has fun & is so exhausted when she returns home. Highly recommended read more

We've been taking our chihuahua here for daycare since he was a puppy (he's 5 now). We've also brought a few of our former foster dogs to daycare for socialization and it was so helpful!! Our foster fail Pogo started going to daycare once a week for the past year and a half and he also loves it. In all honesty there was a short time period where we noticed turnover to be slightly higher then expected but the current staff and management team are really awesome. We don't do boarding here only because we have someone stay at our house when we travel. read more

Great place to take your dog for the day! Reasonably priced and very friendly staff. Pickup and drop off is extremely easy and fast. Abel always comes home tired and happy. Only reason for not giving 5 stars is they don't give you any photos or update on there day. I know he has fun, and it would be nice to get some photos of the fun! Overall highly recommended. read more

I checked this place out and the staff were friendly, helpful and answered all my questions. The girl too the time to answer all my dumb questions about puppy behavior and bowel movements. My four legged child/puppy would love it My only complaint is not with the care but the hours. I drive 10 miles out of the way to another doggy daycare that is open 24/7 I work crazy hours so everyday I have to bring her in, she loves going to doggy day care and I have no complaints but doggy district is my first choice for location and reviews. Just get better hours please This Sunday I was going to bring her in by doggy district but you're not open at all!!!:( The place I drive to is always full of pooches just because they're the only ones open 24/7 Next meeting tell the owners bosses to get realistic hours for us crack dads!!:) read more

I love taking my dog to Doggie District! They offer day camp, grooming and overnight boarding accommodations. The staff is incredibly sweet & they always take good care of my little pug Meatball. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves their dog as much as I do :) read more

The best place ever. I've been bringing my dog here for about 2 years, the staff.. man you can tell just love the dogs! And take pride in treating them like their own, it's real important to me knowing I'm dropping my dog off to have fun but also be protected, they do an I credible job and I'll never take my dog anywhere else read more

If you want your dog treated like you treat your best friend, then this is the place to go. The people are super helpful and friendly. They remembered me and my dog's name after the first day. They make sure your dog finds the right play group and even make sure they help your buddy find a "friend" to play with. Other places I've taken my dogs, they pull back when we get there, but at doggie district, my dog is really happy to go and comes back incredibly happy and sleeps well that night. Also, look at the calendar for special events and doggie parties. I'll never go anywhere else. read more

Update: Received a call from Doggie District, saying that they need to hose down the play area so that it is safe for the dogs during the summer. Also acknowledged my concern that Captain was not properly cleaned before sending him home. Therefore, I am updating the review (and stars) to reflect that Doggie District responded to me within the day of my complaint. I appreciate the prompt communication and the fact that they understood why I was disappointed. Hope to change this review to 5-stars in the future. Original: I want to start off by saying that usually I am very pleased with Doggie District. I drop off my dog, Captain, there regularly because of the level of customer service, the option for all day play (which Captain loves), and updates on how he's doing. This last boarding experience (7 days), however, was a disappointment. Usually Captain comes home extremely clean. This time he came home filthy. What is troubling is that for the price of a human hotel, they did not bother giving him a bath. I usually don't opt for grooming since I give him baths myself, but I have no idea how long he was in such a state for, which is definitely not healthy for any pet. To quote Doggie District's website, "Dog grooming is one of your dog's basic needs and an important part of dog ownership." So basically a premium boarding facility completely failed at providing my pet with one of his basic needs, I find this completely unacceptable. I would expect that Captain got messy under your care, that the least you could do for him is a complimentary shampoo bath. After all if the mess is at your facility, isn't it your responsibility to clean it up? If that is expecting too much, how about a phone call saying, "Hi, sorry Captain got messy, would you like for us to clean him up before you arrive?" I'm disappointed because I have experienced great service in the past, and this time it seems they did not bother to correct such an obvious issue. Coincidentally, my car seats now also require cleaning, making this the most expensive stay by far. Furthermore, this experience unfortunately makes me no longer believe that Doggie District cares about providing repeat customers with continued excellent service, but as a paycheck. It's a real shame. read more

Our "kidz" needed a place to stay, which we felt was safe, clean, and they would love coming too. The process is important to ensure the animals get along. Then the "kidz" went for an interview. They passed and so our relationship began. Next we left them for 4 days. We got an email from the "kidz" and a picture, then they posted pictures to Facebook! We used them another trip and a day visit. We feel comfortable that our "kidz" are well cared for and don't have to worry about them. The facilities are clean with great play areas, even "kiddie" pool for the warm summer dayz! They will be so happy for their next visit! read more

When initially dropping my dogs off for boarding memorial day weekend I was pleased. Booking was easy and the staff was friendly. The day after I brought my dogs home I noticed TICKS EVERYWHERE! Neither of my dogs have ever had ticks, fleas, anything! After giving them some sentrypro thinking maybe they came from outside I noticed them in my car on the blanket my babies laid on during the ride home. For the past few days I've been finding more and more ticks dead and alive. I've called the facility and the only answer I'm getting via email and over the phone is we'll have a manager call you. It's safe to say that I will NOT be taking my dogs to a doggy district location ever again. Especially if they 1. Never noticed during my dogs "play time" and 2. Don't pay enough attention to their facilities to keep the animals they're housing safe and healthy. Especially for paying damn near 300 dollars for this experience. read more

I love that they have an orientation/review of your dog BEFORE you can actually have them stay there. Our dog was happy at pick up from both the orientation and his first stay (he had never been left at a boarding facility in his 12 years). The price was reasonable. They have a back yard situation so you know they aren't in a kennel all day. We packed more than enough food for his 24 hour stay but didn't get any of it back. This is probably the only negative. (And yes we know he didn't eat it all he fell into his bowl at home like he had never seen a meal LOL.) oh and we got an adorable pic to boot during his day...this made us less worried. read more

We send our dog for daycare and also board her here. She comes back happy and tired which shows that she had been busy playing the whole time. The staffs are very friendly, and they know your dog by their name. The reason that I am giving them one star less is because they do not post frequent updates of all the dogs on FB. Once when we boarded her for 5 days, we did not receive any posts of our girl on facebook, and the daily report card that we got just had one picture which did not give us any clue as to what was going on. More frequent updates would reassure us that our girl is having a good time. read more

PRO: staff was friendly. CONS: Dog got sick from here. Sneezing and difficulty breathing, which the dog has NEVER had. At $50/day, I think they can do better with their strict warranty. The pricing was not explained clearly and what we thought was $25/day turned out to be $50/day. read more

The folks at Doggie District are amazing... Cheyenne in particular! I bring both my dogs to the Paradise Valley Mall location and I could not be happier with the service I receive from them. My fur babies get so excited when I say..."you want to go see Cheyenne?" If that doesn't tell you how amazing they are, I don't know what will. I highly recommend for doggie daycare and kenneling. read more

I'm not entirely sure why I continue to have to update my review with fewer stars each time. This one really hurts me to write. I've been taking my dog here for about 2 years. We've had multiple incidents here, but I liked the staff (mostly) and my dog seemed to enjoy herself, so I continued to take her. Over the last few months or so, my dog's behavior had seemed to drastically change. She didn't like to really be around dogs and often was scared around other dogs. She hasn't always been this way. I was concerned about it and I received word that my dog was being kenneled for multiple hours a day, between 5-6 days a week with only a few hours of play time a day. I don't pay Doggie District to kennel my dog. I also did not authorize my dog being kenneled especially alone, so I'm not quite sure why they felt this was okay to make this decision without consulting me first. This location (I'm not sure about the others) has had literally the worst turnover in 2 years I have ever seen. Sadly, I no longer trust the staff at this location (or any Doggie District) and will no longer be taking my dog here. I appreciate Cindy (the Regional Manager) speaking with me in regards to this and attempting to resolve the situation, but the overall well being and decent treatment of my dog is more important, and that is why I have chosen to remove her. This location has gone from a 4.5 star review down to what they currently have now. I urge all of you who take your pet here or are considering taking your pet here to continually check up on them as much as you can and ask for updates, since the staff/management obviously do not take it upon themselves to discuss and be transparent with you. I have never been more angry, hurt, and disappointed than I am right now. I just wish I would have found out sooner and maybe my dog wouldn't be acting so weird and I wouldn't be out hundreds upon hundreds of dollars. You run a business where people trust you to take care of their animals. I'm sick of my dog being a learning experience for your staff. Take this seriously - it is important. read more
