I am absolutely horrified with this place. My puppy has been attending the doggie daycare a couple times a week since June, and often comes home smelly and extremely thirsty, as if she hasn't had anything to drink all day. I understand she is playing with other dogs during the day--and is prone to getting dirty--however I am beginning to think that place is just extremely unhygienic. I just recently boarded my dog for her first "long" stay (4 nights) and this is where I've reached my breaking point. I showed up to pick her up, and they were apologizing profusely about her blanket that I sent with her being soiled and unwashed at this point. Note that this was 1:00 in the afternoon, plenty of time to wash that blanket. My puppy will typically make it through the night without an accident (8 hours) and this blanket was *DISGUSTING* and covered in many different soils and stains. They claimed it was only soiled this morning, however there was A LOT going on with that blanket. I also had left a spare blanket in case of this situation (I do have a puppy after all, and accidents do occasionally happen) and it seemed to be untouched, and still rolled up in the bag I dropped off when checking her in. I literally asked them to throw the soiled blanket away rather than sending it home with me. Once I got home I realized that half of her kibble was still in her packed bag. Take note that I individually packed each meal (breakfast and dinner) for her in separate bags in addition to a lunchtime chew treat that was packed individually as well. I also wrote down her schedule for breakfast, lunch, and dinner that they were made aware of when I dropped her off for boarding. Now, I totally understand that a young puppy staying overnight in an unfamiliar place.. there is bound to be less eating than normal. *HOWEVER* I called The Dog Zone roughly halfway through her stay to check-in and see how she was doing, and I was told that she "was doing just perfect." I don't know about you, but if my dog is not eating well at this point, I would not consider that perfect. I would have liked to know that she was struggling to eat, to maybe have opted into purchasing some of the center's kibble they offer to try and entice her with something new. After I got home with my dog, I called the Dog Zone to see what in the world was going on the last few days. I told them half the kibble was in her bag, and how I called up there halfway through her stay. I was only given an unenthusiastic 'sorry' and 'if I had known, I would have said something when you called'. Be warned, apparently the front desk has no idea what's going on but they'll tell you everything is perfect anyways. I'm beginning to wonder, does this place have anywhere reasonable for the dogs to use the bathroom? Are they attentive enough to the requested routine and schedules of the owners? They definitely don't take the dogs outside, although their website advertises "hours of both indoor and outdoor playtime". It's unacceptable this place just gets away with the bare minimum, and I will not be returning for either doggie daycare or boarding. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place and don't be fooled by the reviews. They have signs all over the windows asking for 5-star reviews. We aren't stupid... you're only trying to bury the negative reviews you're getting. read more

We have been to this location quite a few times. Have had excellent service. The staff are always friendly and smiling. We wont change where we take our pets read more

This is the fourth daycare I've tried. The prices are fair and the people who work here are very friendly, always greet my dog by name and he is always excited to see them which reassures me that he is being treated well. They offer grooming services and have a self washing station which is convenient. My only concern is that it's not the cleanest facility, his paws are always coated in pee and hair, sometime poo, which leads me to believe the floors aren't being cleaned up after the dogs. Other than the facility being dirtier then I'd like I feel confident leaving my dog in their care. read more

Everyone at The Dog Zone is amazing. When we first moved to the area we needed a dog sitter. They were so great. They know our dog by name. They treat him so well. Now we just need them for grooming. They do exactly what you ask and no more. Excellent place. read more

I liked this place, the staff is friendly and the place is clean. They did a good job and my dog seemed happy and looked great they even gave her a cute bandanna. I will be returning. read more

We took our eight month old miniature schnauzer there. I asked for a typical schnauzer cut and after we came to pick her up her beard and mustache was completely cut off. The groomer Matt who supposedly has been doing the grooming for years cut our cute puppy. She is terrified now. Larry the owner as well as the groomer did not admit to cutting our dog several times. Never going back. read more

DO NOT BOARD YOUR DOG HERE IT IS FILTHY!!!!! We went on a 10 day vacation and boarded our dog at The dog zone in Sandy and when we picked him up he was covered in urine and poop and he smelled really bad. When I finished giving him a bath the water was completely yellow and brown from the amount urine and poop I had to wash off of his fur and out of his claws, they also did a horrible job trimming his claws they were uneven and jagged not to mention I DID NOT ask them to trim his claws at all, I will not be boarding my dog here EVER AGAIN!! read more

Super nice people and the owner Larry seems to be loved by the dogs which to me was very important. If my dog don't like you then it's all heck to pay. Left my loved one there for a couple of nights while I went camping. What a savior I didn't have to chase him all over the camp site. I've used other places in the area but the Dog Zone is big and roomie and the dogs get play time. If they could only teach him to read. While there he got a much needed bath. The prices are more than reasonable. I clearly choose the Dog Zone because of the size of the place giving the dog a chance to run around. I also found a coupon on their Facebook page. read more

The groomer I usually use was booked so I took a chance here. Bad idea. I asked them to trim my morkie's hair shorter. When I came back they had shaved her nearly bare, in the middle of winter no less. Even worse, they nicked her leg while shaving her so close. Now she shivers a lot and licks her wound. The groomer was a bit condescending when she spoke to me. I won't be going back. read more

Boss stayed the night and was groomed the next day. I was very happy with the grooming and felt it was a good value for what was done.

I have LOVED every part of the Dog Zone experience!! We are first time dog owners and The Dog Zone has been our dogs favorite place! We did a lot of shopping around on price for daycare and no one has beat The Dog Zone. I was first worried that because of the low price, it would be sub par service but that is totally not the case. In fact it has been the opposite! As I went to more expensive places I noticed they didn't personally care about my dog (or even know my dogs name) The owner knows our dog personally, his quirks, and all the staff take an interest in our dog. They offer AMAZING service at a very fair price. I could not be happier supporting this local business and hope you do too! read more

Really liked this place. Staff was really friendly and the place was clean. We also liked that it was a place we could board our dogs at that was closer to our house. We'll definitely be using them in the future. read more

I LOVE THE DOG ZONE! I have been taking my dog here daily for the past year and I have to honestly say that I don't know what I would do without Larry and the fabulous staff! Sampson has separation anxiety, stomach issues, as well as a seizure disorder. He can be a handful, to say the least. Every single issue we have encountered has been met with patience, understanding, and affection for Sampson. They even helped me solve Sampson's stomach issues that had been plaguing us for months! I have boarded with them numerous times and Sampson always comes back happy, clean, and content. When my father became ill and ultimately passed away a few months ago I had to fly back east with literally no notice. I spoke with the Dog Zone staff, asking if they had room to board him, and told them that I didn't know when I would return. Their response was "don't worry. We will make room! Don't worry about Sampson. We will take care of him." It was so nice to know that this was one less thing I had to worry about during such an emotional and tough time in my life. I am one of "those people" that considers my dogs "furry children".....(I have three). You wouldn't trust just anyone to take care of your kids.. and I feel that way about my dogs. The Dog Zone is the ONLY place I trust with my fur babies! On a side note... In addition to my Sampson, I also have a little Yorkie. He has gone to daycare a few times as well as been groomed by the Dog Zone staff. They do a great job! Love the puppy cut on him! Now that I have rambled on.... In short, if you are looking for a great doggy day care, self service wash, boarding or grooming services... your search stops here! GO TO THE DOG ZONE!!!! read more

I've only used their self wash bath and it was decent. They only have one tub so hopefully you don't have to wait long if someone else is using it. I'd definitely come back again to use it. read more

Our dog has been going to the Dog Zone for nearly a year now. She loves the doggy daycare. In the mornings while we get ready for work she will sit by the front door and expect to be taken down there every day. Whenever she comes home she is a tired and we'll behaved dog. The staff is caring and very welcoming. We love this place! read more

So pleased with the grooming for my two Siberian Huskies. Rachel and Tiger Lily did an amazing job with them! They've never looked so pretty and well groomed after an appointment. The staff was very nice, and I felt comfortable leaving my dogs there. I thought their pricing was very reasonable, too. I'm glad to have found them. read more

Great doggie day care place! I have a hard time finding good value doggie day care places where my dog does not act so timid. This place is great and eased her into the new environment by placing her in the small dog zone and then into the big dog zone. Their drop off routine is very convenient, as you can pull up right by their front door and just have to sign your dog in. They also give you an option to have a bath done on their stay or ask them to do nothing. They have monthly specials, which can help with the costs, which is great! Also the day care has windows all around, so you can see your dog when you drop/ pick them up! I can say I will be a loyal customer for day care and boarding with how tired and happy my puppy is when she gets home! read more

These people wasted my time I don't recommend them they don't tell you what you need when you make an appointment

I love it here! My pup Fritz the St. Bernard can't get enough of it! She loves the playtime, the naps and of course her grooming. I know the grooming is my favorite part! She comes home gorgeous and Tiger the groomer pampers her and treats her like one of her own! I never have to worry when I leave her because I know she's in great hands, she loves going and gets excited to go! We love the dog zone and it's staff, not to mention Tiger the groomer read more

See all

First off we dropped our Australian shepherd off this morning at 9 am and I had to call to see if she was done at 1 pm.. if your appointment is at 9 then it should be done no longer than an hour or two later. Secondly, we asked for a trim on her but furs and they decided to not communicate that to the groomer so they ended up shaving her butt and into her crotch area. Which we specifically said not to do. And we noticed that the hair wasn't even cut evenly, her her between her paws was cut way to short to where it shouldn't be, and it's all over the place. This whole thing was a giant disaster and on top of it all they still charged us for the whole thing. That place really sucks and all they could say was "my bad sir". I don't recommend being your dog there. I will never go back. read more

We have a polar bear size Great Pyrenees at home. As you can imagine, bathing him is no easy task. The self wash service really helped us. We have been here three times, and are very satisfied with the setup here. read more

Not good. Boarded my dog there over Memorial weekend, 2016 and he was severely injured requiring $550 in veterinary surgery and drugs. When I picked him up he was cold, wet, bleeding, and crying. Poor dog required stitches, drains, and had a severe limp. read more

Horrible experience. First time bribing my dog there and they made me fill out a sheet which was understandable so they had my phone number on file along with my boyfriends. We asked that our one year old puppy got a TRIM and a desheding bath to cool him off during the summer. When we walk in there is a heavy odor of urine and all of the dogs are just corralled in a space walking over each other and not on leashes or separated. We put that our puppy was "aggressive" so he wouldn't be put in there even though he's the sweetest. We dropped him off at 1:00pm and they said it would be 3-4 hours. It is almost 6:00 and I hear nothing from them. I have to call them and they go "oh we called and no one answered an hour ago" .....WHAT! they called my boyfriend who was at work and didn't call me, when they had my number. They close at 7 and he told me I had until 6:30 to get him when I was already a half hour away. It was a scam to get more money to board my poor puppy. I had to get my boyfriends sister to go get him and they charged me $70 for my 45 pound puppy who was just supposed to get a trim. I get home and he was fully shaved all over and his small puppy parts were shaved and now bleed because of our carpet. NEVER going again. read more

My dogs absolutely love it here! They are crazy excited to see that we're pulling into the parking lot and that makes me happy that I know they are safe and excited to be there. As I walk in the staff knows exactly who Poncho and Pluto are and make it very easy to sign in (for daycare) and be on your way. Our dogs are our babies and they truly treat them so good. I like that they do temperament tests for all dogs and they make sure all dogs are vaccinated. They also have cameras to keep an eye on all dogs. (I wish we had access to webcams while we are away, maybe one day?!) I understand their reasoning for not allowing showings of the facility as were leaving our pets in their care, but I wish there was a way to see the facility before dropping my dogs off for the first time. Something I had to get use to when walking through the door was the staff immediately says, "who are you here for," instead of "how can we help you", but once I got in the routine that wasn't such an odd phrase to hear. The reason for the 4 star review is I didn't find out until recently that they don't let the dogs out to go potty, they just go right inside and the staff cleans it up after. My dogs come home smelling like feces and that's frustrating, but other than that the staff is friendly, efficient and loving to our pets. I'm thankful for how close they are to us and how easily accessible they are at all times so our pets get the attention they need while we're working! Thank you! read more

So grateful to have found Dog Zone! My dogs look amazing and they came home so happy and looking healthy. I really appreciated the time the groomer took on both of my dogs and I will definitely be coming back! read more

We were in Sandy RVing with our fur babies. There had been a big puddle of mud in the park we were in and the babies got filthy. With all the news recently of dogs getting harmed at pet store groomers I was apprehensive about taking my kids to just anyone. Well I didn't have to worry about taking them to Jamie at the Dog Zone. My kids loved her and didn't give her any trouble ( like they do with me) the area was super clean and my kids came home clean and fresh smelling ! Less stress on me trying to clean the kids up in a small RV tub and less stressful for them because Jamie has such a great way with my kids. I will definitely take them back next time we are in Sandy! read more

I took my Pomeranian to the dog zone and they completely botched his haircut. Not only did they give him a horrible haircut they shaved him. His front legs were hardly trimmed and his head was hardly trimmed, yet his body, back legs and tail were shaved.his tail looks like a burnt rope... For those who are not familiar with Pomeranians they have fluffy tails. I asked that they "trim/round" his tail and when I picked him up it was completely shaved with a little bit a hair left at the tip which looks just like a fringed burnt rope. When they could see I was frustrated they asked if they "could do anything else for my dog other than glue his hair back on" I now have to pay another groomer to correct his patchiness and as for his tail I pray that his hair grows back. This same thing has happened to another Pomeranian that we know of and his hair never grew back. I do not recommend the dog zone for people who care about their dogs! They are unprofessional and obviously know nothing about grooming and they charge $60 for my dogs hair botching session. read more

The Dog Zone - Burnt rope..? #botched - Pet Groomers Near Me - Sandy, Utah

Nice groomer but not at all what I asked for. My yorkiepoo was shaved! I asked for a round face normal westie looking cut and I got a completely shaved body and top of the nose shaved and underneath the jaw was a beard the head top looked like an ugly mullet hat. Turned my cute fluffy puppy into a narrow faced schnauzer/Chihuahua. Terrible patchy ears and body. However the nails are the best I have ever seen! I was so so disappointed I asked for a %50 discount or refund. And after much deliberation they said they would give me the discount so I paid 47 for a cut that was awful and my dog looked terrible. I spent an hour and a half at home shaving the rest of the hair off his face so that he looked liked a chihuahua instead of a weird mullet dog. I trimmed up long hairs left around too. But at least I did not have to touch the nails! the owner or manager just made it seem like it was my fault or that my dog just could not get the round head, which is ridiculous because he had it before he came to get groomed and another groomer did it at a different place. He just defended her and said she is great and basically if there is a problem it was with the dog or what I wanted. Not helpful and a little demeaning. Saying you are one of those people I was talking about that wants us to glue hair back on. Sooooo frustrated. Groomer was nice and had good intentions but seriously messed up my dogs cut and did not take responsibility for it. read more
