When we arrived, which was later than expected because we were from out of town, wanted to try a…read morecloser boarding facility to where we were traveling, and my work didn't allow me to drive up early enough the night before to make the required drop off time - which is not flexible even though they have 24 hour staff, so I was charged $135 for a night my dog didn't stay - my dogs room reeked of pee and was filthy. We had a trip planned so we had no option but to leave our dog there and hope they would clean the room for him. I felt awful and unsettled as we left. While on our trip, we had a family emergency that required us to cancel a night early and head back to where we live. I expressed this to the front desk, who said because I couldn't get my dog by 4:00 PM (or 4:30 PM - something insanely early) I would be charged a $125 fee for picking up "after hours" - this was not communicated to me previously, and I was told by multiple staff pick up by 6:45 would be fine to not incur a fee. Keep in mind - they have 24 hour staff - so I don't know why I would even need to be charged a fee for getting my dog early when there is staff there that can check us out. I was also charged another $135 for the night my dog did not stay. We had no options, so for 3 days and 3 nights, I paid over $1,000 for my dog's stay. Our dog was also supposed to be groomed on his last day, but was groomed a day early. We gave very specific instructions that he needed prescription shampoo used - which we provided - and they ignored that completely which led to my dog now having hotspots we have had to deal with since returning home (and dealing with our family emergency). The front desk staff was so sweet, and lamented and agreed with my outrageous bill, and stated that "they even charge me to board my dog here and I work here." Yikes. After communicating my disappointment with all that had transpired, I got a $30 credit to my bill for the dirty and pee-filled room, and a $110 refund for messing up the shampoo. That is it. $140 back on an over $1,000 bill. Yes -- many of these issues were in the fine print of the agreements you sign to board your dog - so there is little I can do about it, but I feel it is important others know about these fees and charges. I board my dog at very reputable pet resorts where we live (Pittsburgh, PA) and nothing has ever been this expensive, nor have the staff ever been this difficult or not accommodating. We will not be back.

Please do not board your Pets here!!! was routinely using their services because my dog seemed…read moreexcited to go back and seemed happy when we picked him up but we've had some sort of issue every time. Most recently we were texted photos of our dog bleeding and told to pick him up and take him to the vet, they said they didn't know what happened or when, but they noticed "a little bit of blood". I got there about an hour later (the fastest I could get there) and they did nothing to stop the bleeding, they moved him to a different enclosure and I could see that both enclosures were covered in bloody paw prints. They said they assumed he cut his paw on the chain link fence, and said that if we want to prevent him from getting cut in the future we could "upgrade" him to a smaller room with a glass door. A total extortion, your dog is at risk here of intentional neglect so they can up charge you to the next room. We took our dog to the vet to get his paws fixed and they found out he was bleeding from 5 different cuts on his front paws!!! Not just a one time cut, multiple, deep cuts in different directions. I called to tell creature comforts this the next morning and ask they check the enclosure my dog was in for anything sharp before allowing another dog in there, because obviously all of these cuts didn't come from a standard gate. I was not asking for anything from them, just trying to protect another dog from needing stitches and sedation. And I was met with the most hostile employee "Dave". What a horrendous person, no compassion, told me it was my fault it happened and that I should have upgraded my dog (who had been in this same enclosure without needing stitches 6 times before) to a nicer room, and that this was a standard issue for dogs to intentionally hurt themselves. So unless you want to pick up your dog bleeding and be told it's your fault, don't board your dog here. Truly terrible response to this situation. Predatory practices, and that they let my baby bleed for an hour without trying to staunch the blood is crazy. I plan on reporting them for animal neglect.

It's definitely a drive from where I live but I'd say it was pretty worth it. We brought our puppy in the afternoon; Rosie didn't have her Bordetella vaccination when we spoke to them over the phone, but they were able to give it to her when we went to drop her off. We were able to bring her own puppy food from home, and a few of her toys. The workers were quick to get everything processed and get the puppy into a kennel. 'Playtime' was an additional fee (only $5), but all other care was included in the package. She was given her food and water frequently, of course, and each kennel had an opening near the back that led to a small fenced-in area outside (this was kept open all day so that the dogs could go outside whenever they needed to!). We were shown around the area and got to look at the artificial grass outdoors, and everything looked clean and taken care of. The woman who showed us around even seemed a little embarrassed to find some dog droppings that hadn't been picked up yet, assuring us that she tries to keep things all cleaned up. The other dogs in the kennel at the time all seemed so happy, so I think their contentedness can speak for how great this kennel is. My puppy was eager to be back home with me, but I think that's only because she isn't used to being left alone like that. If we ever end up going somewhere that we can't bring a dog to, we will certainly leave her there again. I could tell by how busy the workers were that they are very dedicated to their work, which is to be expected when working with dozens of different dogs every day. I know that my pup is in good hands when I leave her here.

The reviews for Paws Play and Stay are for a different facility than PAWS Canine Activity Center. I'm not sure what I could say about PAWS that my dog Bailey hasn't already said about Fetch 'n Catch (you can read her review under the Yelp listing for Fetch 'n Catch). This place is run by a fun, energetic, dedicated staff of dog-lovers. Their hours are super convenient and the service they provide is unmatched. Before I found Fetch 'n Catch / PAWS, I was paying a local dog walking company over $30 for a thirty-minute walk. For not much more, Bailey gets an entire day of exercise and learning. We reinforce her door manners and commands at home, and she's a much happier dog because of it. It's also really convenient to be able to get Bailey's baths, nail trimmings, and tooth brushings done on her school days. We do our booking online, but you can also call, text, or stop in. I recommend PAWS / Fetch 'n Catch to every dog owner I meet. They are worth their weight in gold!

Found this location online, needed a one day a week daycare for our 4 month old Beagle puppy, and wanted it for his socialization as well. Took him for a meet and greet and he did great (as we expected!), we set up a half day introductory daycare appt and two full days after that, as that is what they require. After the first half day, I was informed at pick up that he wasn't a good fit because he barked during crate time and it was an anxious "attention getting" bark. They offered to try a 2nd half day to try a quieter crating area. Within 1 hour of drop off I was called to pick him up since NOW he was barking during play. I was told to call upon arrival because the door would be locked since they had him secluded in the empty grooming salon, alone. Unbelievable. When someone came to open the door they were carrying our puppy as if to shove him in my arms the moment I entered. I was told he was too anxious for daycare, but was a good dog and not aggressive. I was told he "missed his mommy" when I left and that I should try taking him to public places for socialization, as well as separating from him more often. I was VERY confused since he has been left at a dogsitters home for 2 full weekends in the 2 months we have had him and he did just fine both times for 3 days each time... and they welcome him back. This puppy goes EVERYWHERE... from the park to Home Depot to Target and allll the area pet stores... he's on a first name basis with much of the staff at Cabela's! I would never want my dog to be under any kind of stress, but I would think it is pretty common for ANY puppy to show some kind of anxiety during their first few days of daycare. I am terribly disappointed that nothing was done to try and get our dog acclimated to daycare, and the best option was to resort to putting him in a crate in an empty room alone. Very disappointed that they seemed to quickly dismiss our dog.

My dog had previously been attending a dog daycare with a ton of other dogs that were shortstaffed - he was overwhelmed. Tazito's was a smaller one on one experience with a home setting. Perks of daycare AND being at "home" Ruth is so sweet and really cares - if she's not available there's always someone there. She also sends photos throughout the day! Amazing hours for folks who work not the usual 9-5 or do but have things after work... most daycares close by 6 which can be hard!! Since going I've met other people in the community who use her too, which is great and reassuring. I've even recommended her to some people to check out! So if you're thinking about it - just give her a try and you won't be disappointed!

On my puppy's first morning there she was very hesitant to go with the male co-owner so I asked if he could please text me once she warms up. I'm at work concerned about my puppy so I call and text with absolutely no contact back from the owners. I pick up my puppy early due to their non communication only to find out that my puppy was not fed her breakfast or lunch and that this didn't warrant a phone or text either. I had high hopes for this doggy day care because they stated they prided themselves on the personal attention given to each dog. I felt none of this personalized attention as I only got any information when I picked my puppy up after 9 hours there . That didn't feel very personalized to me. No matter what response and excuses the business owner posts I will continue to feel that the upmost personalized care was not given to my puppy. The slightly urine smelling blanket was an oversight on my end but all the other disasters that day rest solely on Tazito's.
