I've been taking my dog, Kahlúa, to the PawGround for about a year and half now, and it's been the greatest year and a half for my girl. I just recently moved way farther from there and I will continue going, regardless of distance. Every single person there is the sweetest and most loving soul towards animals. If there's anyone I trust to take care of my girl, whether it's daycare, grooming, or boarding, it's them. They always have deals on prices with daycare and boarding. Everyone just really cares about the animals and the people that trust them with their pets. Kahlua and I love you guys!

This review is for grooming as I haven't tried the daycare. My groomer of 5 years recently relocated back East. We were so spoiled as she did it out of her home, my dogs loved and trusted her, which comes as a priority. I spent a lot of time making calls before deciding to go with The PawGround. I called one place closer to my house and they could get me in the same day and rattled off appointments available all day long. This makes me question how good you are if there is that much availability, and therefore, uncomfortable. When I first called The PawGround I was told it was a 3 week wait. I made an appointment immediately. They were so accommodating, friendly and put me at ease. I should mention I'm an insane dog mom and my pups are my be all end all everything. Not the kind that would go crazy over a botched haircut, but if my dog was injured or treated badly, I would probably commit murder. It didn't come to that with Courtney. Not only did she take an appointment at 4:30 on a Saturday, that was slated to last at least 2 hours on my shaggy Maltipoo, she gave my dog an absolutely gorgeous haircut. Her attention to detail, especially on the paws was incredible. I couldn't be more thrilled and grateful to have found her. Her demeanor is very sweet, caring and most of all, genuine. This is everything I'm looking for with any kind of attention my dogs need. Decent and fair price point, tip via Zelle or Venmo, ample parking and the staff is really nice and helpful.

I can't say enough good things about The Pawground. Their staff is professional, accommodating, and caring. They always have a smile for dogs and humans, alike. When we rescued our dog, Shaggy, he was full of anxiety and fear from living on the street. Over the past 10 months of attending The Pawground, we have seen him blossom! He's socialized and confident. He has "friends", he's curious and happy. Shaggy attends daycare 4 days a week and is also groomed at The Pawground. Their groomers are talented and very kind. Plus it's so easy for him to go from daycare to grooming all in the same place! And much less traumatic. Thanks to The Pawground Team, our frightened puppy is growing into his best dog-self.

We've been taking our dog Balto to PawGround for about a year now and couldn't be happier with how the staff cares for our pup Balto is always so excited to go to daycare and the trainers and office team are as thrilled to see him as he is to see them From daycare to boarding to grooming, we'd recommend this wonderful place to anyone and everyone looking for patient, kind, and reliable trainers and staff to care for their dogs One of our favorite things about PawGround is the frequent and generous package deals on daycare and boarding. And we so appreciate the temperament test they conduct for all new clients -- it's gives us such peace of mind that all the pups Balto plays with are evaluated and vetted and he's made so many great friends! Balto loves PawGround and that alone is worth every cent

Enjoying her walk during daycare!

We love everyone at The PawGround! Our dog, Momo, gets so excited when we tell her she's going to daycare! She has the best time - the staff is so sweet and caring and they're always so nice to everyone - people and the pups! My daughters who are 12 and 10 - always say - everyone there is SO nice! We also go to Courtney for grooming and she always does an amazing job! We've brought Momo with some knots after a summer of swimming and she took extra time and care and got them out! We are so grateful for everyone at The PawGround!

We absolutely love The PawGround! My Tilly has been coming here for daycare back when it was Wagmore, I was a little leery at first when The PawGround took over but was soon extremely pleased with the new owner! The owner Alisha is wonderful as is the entire staff, they treat your dog like their own, the facility is always clean and the beds and blankets are cleaned daily. The pricing is competitive to most daycares in the area and they ALWAYS have discount deals on daycare, boarding and grooming. I give 5+ stars to The PawGround and cannot recommend them enough!

The Paw Ground has become a second home for three of our dogs now, and we are always so thankful for their kindness, care and trust! Our dogs LOVE the staff and are always excited to get dropped off. We look forward to the daily photos and hearing about all of the fun things they did. The grooming services are also the best we've ever experienced...I swear my dogs have never looked that white and bright. When we lost one of our dogs earlier this year to cancer, they even through her a party during one of her last days. We have tried many doggy daycare places in the valley, and no one compares to The Paw Ground.

Happy photos of my girl with her prized possession at The Pawground.

The Pawground is the BEST! Alisha (owner) and Courtney (manager), and the rest of the the staff are dedicated, loving and passionate about all the dogs under their care. They send pictures and videos all the time. They take the dogs on great walks and always answer texts and phone calls promptly. My girl loves staying there and sleeps well when she gets home. Can't say enough good things!

The PawGround provides a safe and social alternative to "leaving the dog at home". I trust The PawGround to watch, walk, entertain, and feed my little dog a couple times a week. I recommend it. The employees are educated, kind, and attentive. The grooming services conveniently take place at the same location as daycare and that's a huge timesaver for me. Teddy and I thank you for being gentle and always there when we need you!!! Xxxooo

I love they send photo updates! Makes me feel at ease.

I love that the staff take great care of my pup. They are very knowledgable and even have a vet tech on board! They're super friendly so I am a little confused by the negative feed back. I love that they have separate rooms for the small dogs and big dogs. Even though my pup is a 61lb chonk, she does better with the smaller dogs than the bigger ones. I am so happy and grateful that they were able to accommodate her. My dog comes back happy and tired which is great for a full-time work fur mom. Dogs are truly a reflection of their owners and how they are taken care of (or not) at home. I would 100 percent recommend this place. Here's a pic of my little girl at doggy daycare. She's the biggest one in the room. :)

The Pawground is a wonderful place to take your furry friend. I made and cancelled a whole bunch of temperament tests for my dog and the staff was always patient and extremely friendly. When I was finally able to bring my 40 pound Sheepadoodle in, everyone greeted him with such kindness. We had rescued our 8 month old puppy from the streets about a month earlier and were unsure if he would get along with other dogs. When I expressed my concern to the staff, the told me not to worry about it, they would make sure he and the other dogs were safe. I was told the temperament test would take 15 minutes to an hour, so when they took Shaggy in the back and came out 5 minutes later, I was sure he failed and we would have nowhere to take him when we needed daycare. The staff member that brought him out said that he actually did great. He played well with other dogs and they would be happy to have him as a client. A week later, I brought him in for an hour of daycare and grooming. I asked if he was going to be in a kennel, and was assured that he would be in the play yard for the whole hour. He was scheduled for grooming after his hour of play, so before I left, Courtney (the groomer) came out and spoke to me about what I wanted done for Shaggy. When I showed up to pick him up, Courtney brought him out and I couldn't believe he was the same dog. he looked amazing. Since he was homeless his whole life, we didn't know he could look so beautiful. we were extremely pleased with how he looked. Needless to say, I would recommend The Pawground to everyone who needs daycare, boarding or grooming. They have affordable and flexible half day, whole day and hourly daycare where your pup can socialize with other dogs and get to know the amazing staff. I interacted with at least 5 people, and they were all very friendly and attentive. It was obvious that they loved their jobs and all the pups they encountered. I can't wait to bring Shaggy back to play with his new friends, and he'll definitely be back for his next haircut.

Look at this happy boy getting all the love

My pup Stewart loves it at the pawground! working in entertainment, their flexible hours make it so much easier for drop offs and pick ups. My favorite part is that every person that works there seems to have a relationship with my boy. So grateful we found a place like this so close!

I have been taking my dog Lexie to the Pawground for about 1 year now, and I can't say enough good things about this place! When I first got her she was very shy and timid, but she has completely come into her own at Daycare! She has made so many dog friends and absolutely loves the human staff! I boarded her for the first time here and it was so great being able to leave her with a staff that I trust at a place she is comfortable and familiar. I told the owner Alisha I was a bit nervous leaving her, and she checked the cameras the first night and texted me to reassure me Lexie was doing well. Courtney the manager is also so helpful with anything you need! She also gets her baths here with Courtney and Cesar! It's so nice that they can just pull her from daycare to get her bath. Overall, this place and the staff are amazing and I highly recommend the Pawground for your daycare, boarding, and grooming needs!

In…read more2023/2024 I found the dog resort extremely helpful as a day time dog sitter for 4-6 hrs at a time. My dog didn't seem to mind it and always came back calmer so I decided to leave him here for 9 days while I went away for a trip. I don't recall the exact costs. Probably between 900-1100 dollars for daily walks and his home provided food. I asked the employees to put on his sweater at night. It wasn't a question it was a very important task they agreed to. He was a very small 8 pound yorkie and was always cold. When I came back my dog was not his normal self. That already made me highly suspicious about getting his walks. He was coughing a lot, not sleeping but also lethargic. I took him to the vet and he had pneumonia. Meaning, he was cold from day 1 and got worse for the remainder of his stay and I never got a call from here. From there he got sicker and sicker and I had to put him down. I was devastated and desperate to get him back to normal for months! I recommend people never leave their dogs in places like this. Sure you save money and they may or may not have company (depending on their personality) but you're better off vetting a dog sitter to check in or stay with your dog at home. In the end you may save yourself an onslaught of vet bills from trying to figure what is making your dog so ill when back from a trip. At least with an in home dog sitter they're more like to stay alive and healthy. If you have a small dog with specific needs get someone who can cater to your dog with love and care. I highly suggest NEVER leaving your dog for overnight or extended stays. I hate that it took me so long to post this but my grief was too strong to do it before. I wanted to sue, I wanted my money back, but I was so sad and I couldn't bring myself to do much other than focus on him and move on with my life. I'll never get another dog after this experience.

We have asked them about behavior, training, socialization, boarding, recovery, schedules - you name it. They've supported him through puppyhood, adolescence, two knee surgeries and recovery, and now adulthood, always adjusting his walkers, sitters, dog pairings and activities based on what's best for him at that stage. They were especially incredible during his surgeries and recovery, helping us think through safe care options, checking in on him, and always prioritizing what was best for Wiley rather than just what services they could provide. They have made introductions, recommended trainers and other trusted professionals, and even offered to reinforce whatever training routines we were working on so that everyone in our dog's life could be consistent. Wiley absolutely adores these people, and that tells us plenty.

It was really special having our best friends at the wedding, and Sonia made sure that we did not have to worry about them at all so we could just enjoy the weekend. It's not easy to wrangle 170 pounds combined especially when there's a lot of human food around on tables, dropped morsels on the ground, kids running around, and a ton of special people the dogs get excited to see; but Sonia's calm, cool, collected nature transferred to the pups and they were relaxed and well taken care of and had a great time. Thanks so much!
