We recently moved to Santa Fe. I'm very protective of my dog Luna so when I had to start going out of town for work I did a lot of research. The team at Paws Plaza are great for daycare or boarding.

Very excited to have found Paws Plaza. We've been taking our pup to zoomies because they have fantastic hours, but I wanted a daycare location that has an outdoor area. After some research, I found Paws Plaza. I took a tour of the facility because we will be boarding our dog there soon. I just stopped in without making an appointment or calling ahead, and asked for a tour. The boarding kennels and play areas were clean. The outside areas are great, and the staff said that the dogs have inside/outside access unless there is bad weather. I'm certain my pup will have a great time boarding with them, as she loves going to Paws Plaza for daycare already. She goes in excited, and comes home exhausted! read more

When my dogs need to be boarded, it's so comforting to know they are well taken care of at Paws Plaza. I'm still working part-time. One of my dogs has separation anxiety; I'm thankful that I can leave her at Paws Plaza during the work week where she plays and enjoys her furry friends and I can go to my job knowing she is well cared for at Paws Plaza. Thank you, Paws Plaza! read more

Love this place!! And so do my doggos. They love the day care, bathing and overnight stay.s. Thank you to the amazing team that plays and cares for my pups! read more

Paws Plaza was privately owned and sold to a corporate chain. I will say they never missed a beat. My pooch loves paws plaza. The new operation is as good as when it was privately owned. Yes, I recommend Paws Plaza read more

Wonderful staff that take excellent care of my dog. They are patient and friendly with my shy girl. I've used their boarding services when I've traveled for work and really appreciate their flexibility when my schedule changed and I had to board her an extra night.

I spent well over $1,000 with Paws Plaza I was called at 1:23 pm 10/21 and told Akira my Malamute husky's paw was bleeding which was caused by a splinter or an abscess by Chris/Mike the dog trainer. He even had a fellow female employee co-sign the lie. When I asked if she was a vet she said no but I've worked with animals a long time ... long enough for her inability to distinguish an abcess from a splinter from a superficial cut under a dogs paw ... the Vet at Gruda that examined her the next day said, "she has a superficial wound probably from a rock or a nail" that was obviously in Paws Plaza's yard. They refused to take any responsibility, actually charging me for their negligence . Paws Plaza makes up stories to cover their bums and TELLS Lies and just know your pet will get hurt in their care ... and, because of their disclaimer, it will be your fault! Ijs read more

I am now taking all three of my doggos to Paws Plaza for Daycare. My big grrl plays in one yard and my 2 chihuahuas who are new to doggie daycare are being acclimated to the experience and are loving it. I trust Paws with my babies because of their caring and professional staff, and the smart policies they have in place regarding vaccination records, social history and dog medical concerns/wellness. I look forward to boarding my little pack here when my husband and I travel. I was so impressed when I picked my dogs up from Daycare recently ~ the attendant made my big girl walk nicely and not jump up on the gate. So nice to have them reinforce her training! And after only one visit, a staff member addressed my chihuahua by name! These folks are in the right business for all of the right reasons. Thank you, Paws Plaza! read more

I don't think I could say enough good things to express how much we appreciate the staff at this business. They're always very kind, helpful, and caring. Thank you for giving us peace of mind that our fur baby is in good hands. We would especially like to thank Chelsea and Bridgette for doing a stellar job during the recent change in ownership. Their management skills are second to none, and they work very well together. Our doggo enjoys coming here to socialize and burn some energy whenever we can't take her with us. Great facility, great people, and great doggos. read more

Me and my pup are huge fans of Paws Plaza. They are wonderful and so caring for your dog. I highly recommend it if you are looking for daycare or boarding. read more

Paws Plaza would have gotten 5 stars before it was sold to a corporation and is now part of a chain. Naturally, the prices have gone up, the bureaucracy and rigamarole increased (i.e., every meal separately bagged, etc.), the ubiquitous tip jar and tablet "option" is present (presumably because they're not paying the staff appropriately), they've found ways to nickel-and-dime and add upcharges (for instance, they charge for "puppy postcards" and for "cuddling" your dog which, I assume means that other dogs are ignored), and the service has gone down. For instance, for overnight boarding PP used to have someone who would stay overnight to make sure the dogs were ok. Now, despite a price increase and despite the website stating that the staff will "ensure all their needs are met while you are away" no one is staying overnight. For overnight stays, I'd rate them a 3-star but for daycare, I'd still give it 4-stars. read more

I love Paws Plaza for my collies, Romulus and Remus. They love to play with other dogs. Paws Plaza gives them that opportunity. If I lived a little closer I would take them weekly. They come home happy and exhausted. Especially when the weather is cold and windy and their walks aren't as long as they'd like Paws Plaza gives them an opportunity to burn energy and play, play, play! Sometimes other people are picking up their dogs and I get to meet their playmates, which I love. The next time we take a trip I will feel very reassured to have Paws Plaza take care of them knowing they won't be locked in a little cell for hours on end, which I could never do. I'm so happy Paws Plaza is in Santa Fe! read more

We've had friends that have been clients of Paws Plaza for years and now that we have a Border Collie pup we have started taking her to PP. She not only loves her time there, she has learned good manners and what it means to interact with other dogs. And anyone that knows about Border Collies knows we really appreciate what they've done for her and the break time we get to recharge our own batteries while she's there. Our friends work and take their dogs daily to PP and they swear by PP too. read more

Paws Plaza - Pet Groomers Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

Our dogs think it's great fun and can't wait to get there! That's the best recommendation possible!

My dog had an unknown past, so we had to start from scratch to find out what, he needed and liked. It took him no time at all to make up his mind. He Loves Paws Plaza. He knows where he is going many blocks away and starts dancing in the back seat. He can't wait to get inside. When I pick him up, he's still happy, and also very tired. Usually after a big drink of water, he heads to bed for a long nap. It's wonderful that he gets needed exercise while having so much fun. Everyone there is kind, and I know he is well treated. He gets his nails trimmed too. We haven't sampled other amenities, but we will. He suffers with separation anxiety, so we are going to seek help for that. All in all, I can't imagine a better place for a dog. read more

My pup LOVES going to Paws to see her friends. This was an amazing option as I adopted my pup from the shelter and soon had to return to a regular work schedule. She is 8 months, so socializing and not being home alone all day were important considerations. On her first visit, the staff conducted a behavior assessment and a slow introduction to the rest of the big dogs. Now when we turn down 5th street, she knows she is going to have an exciting, fun filled day with her friends. Chris and the rest of the staff are courteous, knowledge, and are always willing to answer questions and provide training tips. We couldn't be more satisfied with Paws Plaza! read more

The fact that my dog starts wagging her tail several blocks before we get there, and pulls me toward her particular entrance is all I really need to know. Started her at Paws Plaza right after her found day (part time) helped with socialization and all round ease as she had some fear and trauma. Watch the videos on Instagram with the pool and the tunnel . Hilarious and full on engagement with the pups. read more

Terrible!!! Terrible!!! Worst grooming job we've ever gotten for our puppy. When I expressed my dissatisfaction, they offered to schedule another appointment and give a discount instead of fixing the problem. Our dog literally looks like she was ran over by a lawnmower. Paid $80, very disappointed. read more

We recently moved to Santa Fe and Paws Plaza has been a lifesaver in terms of having a safe and fun place for us to leave our dog, Paco, while traveling. Employees like Casey are the reason we feel confident leaving him for boarding. She is such a sweet person and a true animal lover. She is engaged and attentive. Thank you to Casey, Bridgett, and the rest of the staff here for taking good care of our pups. I highly recommend this business. read more

They take great care of my pet on a fairly regular basis. He always looks forward to going!

I was traveling to Santa Fe and had a quick meeting for work, the only problem was that I had my not so friendly Australian Shepherd with me. I was relieved when I called ahead and they said it would be no problem. My dog usually doesn't like strangers but she didn't even bark, she seemed to love it there. All the staff seemed to be dog people and they were so nice and accommodating. Definitely recommended if you need a doggie bath or day care in Santa Fe! read more

Very disappointed day at paw plaza where my dog was injured and there was very little accountability. My recommendation is ask for a tour of the back and make sure you check your dog before you leave it. Management call to apologies which was nice but I would never go back there! read more

Our "girls"- 2 Great Danes have been going here for several years. They love it. I think they actually know where they are when we turn the corner in the car. It's nice they will come get them in the car and take them out upon pick up. As I wouldn't be ably to do that on my own. Wish they were open on Sunday though! read more

Some lady that works there named Robin is the rudest person I've ever met. I think she has forgotten that she is in the CUSTOMER SERVICE industry. She was belittling to multiple other clients and very aggressive. GO TO ANY OTHER PLACE BEFORE GOING HERE! read more

This review is a bit late (almost a year!) but better late than never! Dropped my pup off here for some much needed romping on our drive from Memphis, TN to SoCal. She can be hit or miss when integrating with a new pack, but the staff here were great introducing her to the other dogs and she had no issues during her stay. We even got her a little shirt! Would definitely stop here again! read more

Paws Plaza - Pet Groomers Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

So I brought my Dog back into to see Groomer, they had moved next door. The price went up $25, (he's 15 pounds) without letting us know. Obviously, this is because they moved into a new Facility next door. You should let your Customers know. That's a huge increase. Then when I called back to see if our Groomer could cut his nails, yes that would be another $20-$25, she's no longer with them. I asked where she went, they have no idea. Asked for her last name they wouldn't give. Our dog is hard to groom, it's not like I can easily just take him to anyone. Disappointed. She had cut his tongue a little and told us about it, didn't tell us about his knicks underneath but I felt like he was a hard dog to groom, so I don't blame her. I am disappointed that my business isn't valued enough as I would love to use someone you have there but it needs to be someone who knows what they are doing. Hence, my asking about Jackie. read more

Not my first choice for doggie day care. Or even my second. My experience is that other places in town, such as Santa Fe Tails, give the dogs more one on one care. Plus other places will do overnights as well. After going to Paws Plaza over a dozen times within a two month period, they still didn't recognize me OR my very distinctive dog when we walked in. Really got old. "Oh, and who is this? And has he been here before? And does he have an appointment? Full day or half-day?" Seriously? The owner is also fond of lecturing owners about the "right" way to do things with their dogs. I have many, many years of experience with dogs and all of my dogs have been very well behaved. I believe there are many paths to doggie enlightment, whereas this owner and her employees have a "my way or the highway" attitude. Sorry, but for the prices they charge, I don't need to be scolded or told how it's done. read more

Wonderful! they do such a thorough, caring job, so loving towards our dog, a huge hairy large breed, he always looks amazing after his session. We've been several times and are always impressed. A great selection of healthy foods & treats too. read more
