My dogs love coming to daycare at Pit Stop HQ and I love being able to drop them off and knowing they're safe and happy while I'm at work!

What a wonderful place - I cannot stress this enough. From the staff to the facility itself, I am a huge fan of Pit Stop HQ. Our dog Peanut comes here once a week (for the past few months) and LOVES it (you can usually tell because she resists coming home with me and clearly wants to stay and play). She is always excited when she gets home (as if she wants to tell us what happened at daycare that day), and is wiped out the whole next day (which is a great thing for an active dog). Sheehan and his staff are always friendly, and it certainly doesn't hurt that Pit Stop is literally down the road from our house. I'd highly recommend checking this place out if you have a dog! read more

We are so glad Pit Stop came to South Philly! My dog has been going to pit stop for just under a year now, and the experience has been great. Sheehan and his team are awesome with the dogs, and the hours are perfect for work during the week and activities during the weekend. They recently expanded the space, so there is plenty of room for both indoor and outdoor play! read more

We have been sending our dog to pit stop for a year and a half now and also just took advantage of their training sessions with Mike! In just a few sessions, we saw immense improvement in her obedience, patience and listening. It was so nice that they were also able to work with our pup during the day when she was at day care and make sure she wasn't getting into the same antics we brought her to training for in the first place! read more

I love taking my high-energy pup to Pit Stop. He has the best time playing all day and comes home exhausted. The whole Pit Stop team is friendly and energetic, and I can tell how much they care about all of the pups! I've also had my dog bathed here a couple of times, and they do a great job for an affordable price. I'm grateful to have this gem nearby. read more

Ryder loves spending time here. The people are very friendly and the place seems very clean. Other daycares that I have taken him to leave me feeling a bit sleeved out. Not pitstop at HQ. I have been taking him here for over a year now and everything is always a-OK. I love how the dogs can choose to be inside or outside as they'd like! read more

I take my 2 dogs to Pitstop to socialize and have a play day. The staff is phenomenal. They know you and more importantly, your dogs. Very friendly and attentive. The outdoor space is unheard of in Philly dog daycare and one of the reasons we keep coming back. We started taking our dogs there when Pitstop was only open for a few weeks. It's been wonderful watching the company grow and adapt to customer needs and changing environment. Eddie and Cooper can't wait for their next visit. read more

We absolutely love Pit Stop and our corgi, SoCo, joins them regularly for day care. They also offer bathing services and overnight care. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Would love to see more photos of my puppy on instagram though! read more

Our dogs London and Misha love it here so much that all we have to do is open the storefront door and they take off running to the staff members. We are actually relieved that we have such a great doggy daycare so close to home. We bought a package and now we can take them there twice a week and know they are having fun socializing with other dogs, getting exercise and hugs from the amazing people who work there. read more

We've been taking our dog to Pitstop for a couple months now. We love that they offer both hourly and full day care on weekdays and weekends. Our dog doesn't do well left home alone, so we're happy to have pitstop look after him and patiently work with his separation anxiety. We've already seen an improvement in his behavior in the couple of months of going there. The location is great too, although not the closest doggie daycare to us, it's right off the Italian Market, which offers lots for us to do. On weekends, we'll drop him off for a few hours and meander around shops and restaurants in the neighborhood. read more

This place is great! Close to home and the owners are very friendly and accommodating. The overnight stays are way better than a kennel, and they even send pictures! We can tell that they take great care of our little furball there. read more

Our dog Tucker loves this place. He doesn't go every day- but everyday that he's not there, he is sad about it. The staff seems large but knowledgeable on all of the dogs there. More space than the other center city doggy day cares we've been to! Great local spot to drop off your pup and pick them up tired!!! read more

Wonderful people and could not recommend this place even more! People are super friendly and so are the dogs!! Purchased the 10 day package and will definitely recommend to my friends!! read more

I have a 7 month old and everyone at Pit Stop has been great. My guy comes home very happy and worn out. It is great that he gets to socialize so much. He misses it on weekends. Their hours are great, and yesterday I was running into trouble with picking him up, and they walked him home for me. Can't say enough about the whole staff there. They really do care. read more

We started taking our baby girl to Pit Stop after we noticed signs of anxiety while she was going to another doggy day care. We decided to give Pit Stop a try, and we haven't looked back. The staff are very friendly, have a clear affinity for the puppers, and always give us our girl back in the same or much more exhausted (our preference) condition than when we dropped her off. She doesn't show the slightest sign of anxiety when we pick her up or drop her off, which by itself would make Pit Stop a god-send for us, but we're also over-the-moon with every other aspect of the business and our experience there. read more

This is the best doggy daycare around. The staff is great and my dog waits by the door in the morning to go see his friends there. Everyone there is flexible, the place is very clean and the animals are well cared for. read more

We've been taking our pup here for a few months now and love this place! She's always so excited to come in and we know that she's having a great time. The staff is friendly and the photo's are always a treat. read more

Every morning Pablo sits at the door and barks, then bolts to Pit Stop. When we take him for a walk, he tries to get there too. The staff is awesome, the price is right, and we all couldn't ask for more. read more

This is my go to for dog daycare- even though I live in north philly I still go back because they are so great! The staff is amazing and so flexible- the prices are very reasonable- and my dog always comes home tired and happy! read more

A gem! No worries with leaving your furry family members here because they're in great "paws" with great company. Perfect for people who have busy, inconsistent schedules because Pit Stop allows you to walk in at anytime during their operating hours. Also open on weekends! The staff is truly incredible. read more

Can't say it enough how much we love sending our dog to PitStop - he's been going since he was a puppy and now at 1years old he has made so many friends! Thanks PitStop for making Hank feel so at home! read more

Sheehan and his crew take great care of my dog. Their store has a glass window where you can see the dog playing inside. We are busy on the weekends, and it's great that they can accommodate us seven days a week. read more

Took our puppy to pit stop for the first time today and he (we also) absolutely loved it!!!!! The staff is sooo friendly, it's super clean and he came home tired out, which is a first for our always hyper Dalmatian puppy. Would recommend to anyone! read more

Everyone at Pit Stop HQ is so amazing and caring. My dog absolutely loves coming here for day care (and he is completely wiped when he gets home). I really can't say enough about the staff. They are friendly, accommodating and take such good care of our dog. I am so thankful that they have opened in the neighborhood- truly a great addition. read more

My puppy looks forward going to this place and the best part he just comes home and takes a nap.

I have been using Pit Stop now for 4 months since I moved to South Philly. Everyone who works there has been nothing but welcoming and great with my pup! They make sure to let me know if there were any issues during the day while my dog was in their care. A tired pup coming out of daycare is a happy owner and that's exactly what I get day after day! read more

We are new to both the area, and to doggie daycare...the staff at Pit Stop HQ could not be more friendly and comforting with the way they handle the dogs in their care. We felt very comfortable leaving our 9 year old dog in their capable hands...our dog even stayed over-night for 3 nights! We highly recommend Pit Stop HQ for the care of your dog...your dog is like family here... what could be better! Kathy S. read more

I decided to take my puppy to Pit Stop when she was only 6 months old so she could get socialized. She's a small dog, only 14 pounds, so I was worried about leaving her at doggy day care all day with a lot of other bigger dogs. There was absolutely no need to worry at all! She loves doggy day care and comes home exhausted from playing all day. The staff at pit stop are really wonderful and truly care about the animals. They make me feel like they take special care of my lil one and give her a lot of attention. Thanks Pit Stop! read more

I am so thankful that I found Pit Stop HQ! After trying 4 doggie day cares in the city with my hyper, playful pup, we found that Pit Stop HQ was our best fit! The staff is so friendly and helpful. I know my pup will be fully taken care of and get a full day of play with other dogs. The location is big and not too crowded, which is a bit of an issue with some other day cares around the city. There is plenty of space for the dogs to play or just lay around. I highly recommend Pit Stop HQ and will continue to bring my pup there! read more

Our puppy loves Pit Stop! It's easy online scheduling (you can even book the morning of!) We have a giant breed puppy so we're happy they have a lot of space including outdoor space for her. In the summer they even have sprinklers and baby pools for the dogs to cool off. It's fantastic! I just wish they had a dog cam so I can see how much fun she has all day! Once she comes home, she is so tired and passes out! read more

Pit Stop HQ doggy daycare is exactly what this neighborhood needed. Finally, a furendly, clean and transparent doggy daycare, with both a spacious indoor play area as well as a pawsome, astro-turfed outdoor play area for my pooch to romp around in all day while I'm at work. The staff are pleasant and well qualified, and they spend time making sure that each dog is well attended to. Also, they allow me to come inside and watch my dog play with their pawsome toys, and also let me watch him play with his new furends. On top of all that, it is by far the most affordable doggy daycare in town, and the only place that offers an hourly option. Two paws up!!! read more

My dog loves Pit Stop, and I love how exhausted she is at the end of the day! It is obvious that everyone who works here loves dogs and that the dogs have a great time playing all day. And I love the photo updates posted on Instagram and Facebook. Highly recommend! read more

This is the best place to leave your dog! All the people who work here clearly take the time to get to know the dogs and spend time playing with them and ensuring they're happy and safe. For overnights ("sleepovers") Sheehan treats his guests like his own family. The frequent posts to social media prove just how much fun the dogs are having and how loved they are even if you're not there to remind them. It's like dropping them off with family - you know your kids are safe and cared for. Thanks Pit Stop! read more

Pit Stop HQ is awesome!! It was only my dog, Riley's second full day at daycare and the owner did me the biggest favor by bringing him to the vet for a hot spot I had discovered that morning. I'm not sure of any other dog daycare that would do that at last minutes notice. I notified them when they opened at 6:30 am and they were more than happy to help since I had to get to work. They called me to give me updates and were just very accommodating. Everyone is so nice there!! My dog Riley, a 3 year old golden retriever, loves it there. He sometimes appears on their snap chat which I love. I definitely recommend Pit Stop HQ to all dog owners for day care. Your dog will love it. read more

We've been using them when in Philadelphia during the weekends. Our dog is well taken care of and likes going.

this place is amazing! my 7 month old puppy, Ezra, LOVES going here, or as he calls it, "going to school." as soon as we round the corner in the morning, he darts to the front door and runs in to say hi to the staff - who are all so welcoming, kind-hearted and trustworthy. when I pick Ezra up after work, he literally doesn't want to leave. on our walk home, he tells me all about the friends he made and what they did all day, then he promptly falls asleep after dinner because he's so tired. i feel great about taking Ezra here - he gets to play and socialize all day, and i know he's in good hands. we'll continue taking him here for a while :) read more

If I could give more than five stars I would! This place is amazing and has been such a lifesaver. I have a high energy German Shepherd pup and he loves the place. After a day at daycare he comes home and passes out for the whole night. Their hours are really helpful for someone who works (6:30-7) and unlike the other daycares in the city, they are flexible with walk-ins and inconsistent schedules. Sheehan and his team are also just really great, kind-hearted people and I love supporting a local business. Try it out! read more

If I could give 6 stars I would! Pit stop is the best - great facility ( much larger than others), package deals that make it super reasonable, friendly and attentive staff - and above all, great care that our dog Joni loves. Joni goes 4 or 5 days a week. We are so grateful to pit stop!!! Thank you guys!!! read more

This place is awesome! The staff is very welcoming and friendly. You can tell they all love and care for the dogs as their own. My puppy always seems to be having a great time when I pick her up and is exhausted (a major benefit!) when she comes home. They have very affordable prices and convenient hours. The location is very clean and is large. I love that they have a large outdoor section for the dog. I would highly recommend this place. read more
