    I love Urban Hound and so do my dogs. I have 2 small dogs (Charlie and Chewy) that I occasionally take in for doggie daycare to keep up with their socialization skills. Every time we come in we are greeted with a smile and they know them by name. Communication and customer service is awesome. In addition to group play doggie daycare they have overnight boarding (which I have yet to use) and a groomer on site which is convenient when I need to have their nails trimmed. Since finding Urban Hound I've moved from Reno to Sparks and still come back because I wouldn't trust my pups anywhere else.

    Mico is a regular and even got featured on their website!

    I can't even believe I am just now leaving a review for Urban Hound! My husband works for Bishop Manogue and we first heard about Urban Hound because it is owned by one of his students and their family. When we realized how close it is to our house, we knew we had to use it for our pup! Mico is our Australian Shepherd who LOVES coming to Urban Hound. He gets so excited when we even mention the words "dog camp" around him (our nickname for this place) because he loves it so much. We started out taking him here for daycare when he was younger so he could get some energy out and play all day while my husband and I are at work. He's better at chilling at home now, but we still bring him sometimes because he loves it so much! You can drop your dog off at 7am and pick them up by 5:30-6pm (depending on the day). The daily rate is totally worth it for that long of a period! The rate is comparable for a Rover but you get an entire day of playing instead of just an hour like a lot of the Rovers offer. Plus it's even cheaper if you buy a punch pass for 10 daycare visits up front. The 10 visit pass is $190 which comes out to $19/day which you can't beat! They separate the bigger dogs from the smaller dogs which is nice. Plus you get a trial run day the first time to make sure it'll be a good fit for your dog! You can even purchase additional services like extra play time with a staff member, baths, nail cutting, etc if you want. We regularly board Mico here when we go out of town as well. Their boarding rates are reasonable ($45/night) and include access to daycare during the day, but they do up-charge during holidays and peak seasons which we think is still totally worth the price. Each dog gets their own individual room for the night which has a bed and a door with a large window for them to see out of. We drop off Mico's food with feeding instructions and a few toys! They'll also send you photos of your dog while you're away if you request them. Urban Hound recently launched an online portal which makes it even easier to request bookings and make sure all vaccines are up to date. We have had such a great experience with this business and have even referred multiple friends here--I think we have at least 4-5 friends that now bring their dogs here as well! We will definitely continue supporting Urban Hound!

    Can't recommend enough. First time boarding my dog they gave me a tour beforehand to see what the facility was like. Let the new owner who was awesome and answered all of my questions. When I went to pick my dog up they said "no we are keeping her she's so sweet" lol, really eased my nerves because I didn't know how she did! When you board with them they do a temperament test so if you want to come back for daycare that's already done. My dog was WORE OUT from making new friends and playing. All for a very fair price too. Highly recommend this place

    Our dog Honey LOVES to come here. She plays and is very tuckered out when she gets home. Very sweet owners and people running Urban Hound . They also have a nice area to board kitties ‍ . Honey has stayed with them for a week and we liked that she was in good hands.

    We love you urbanhound!!! My boyfriend and I recently got a puppy and the second she was old enough we started taking her to day care. We were a bit hesitant at first because our puppy, Tahoe, is very fearful of people and barks at everyone. Bringing her the first day, she was very noticeably nervous and I almost turned around and left, but I'm so glad I didn't! Over the next couple weeks, Tahoe began getting more and more comfortable. Now we are about 4 months into daycare and the other day tahoe slipped her leash and instead of running away, she ran to the daycare door! I was so relieved. Tahoe always gets wiggly and excited when she sees the employees. She will kiss them and get so happy. It is such an awesome feeling to be able to see your scared puppy becoming comfortable with other people. Tahoe is still a shy dog and still barks at strangers but she loves the people at urban hound! We even recently boarded Tahoe and I thought that maybe she would be a little off after spending her first night away from us but when we came to pick her up she was more interested in staying with her other dog friends then she was to come home! She always gets so much energy out and always comes home happy and tired. I also love that the employees always come out and meet you at your car, they always call her by name so they definitely pay attention to who is who. We have gotten videos of Tahoe playing at daycare which is so above and beyond. We get compliments on how Tahoe is an urban hound favorite. It's always a happy positive experience and I would recommend urban hound to any of my friends.

    What a great local dog day care and boarding business!! All of the staff is super nice and take amazing care of our dog :) Their prices are also extremely affordable. We have also used their nail trim service too, so when you pick your dog up from boarding they are all set to go !! They also offer full grooming and private walks and play sessions for 1:1 time for your pet if you so choose. We have also never had any issues with any aggressive or unfriendly dogs! For us they get 4/5 stars because for healthcare professionals, their hours simply don't work for our daily schedules. We would use them every day we work for our dog but our 12hr work day is outside of their timeframe for both pick up and drop off. Additionally, both times we have boarded our pup we have specifically asked them to charge the card on file since a friend has picked the dog up for us (again our flights had landed outside of their pickup time frame) and both times they had the person picking him up use their card.... Venmo is fine but it is a little annoying when we specify that someone else will be picking him up and they still don't charge our card. We sure do love using this business and Bodhi will definitely be back for more :)

    I've been using Urban Hound for day care and overnight care for my puppy, Ruby, for several months now. This team at Urban Hound is very good with all the dogs that come in. I'm very impressed with the cleanliness and professionalism from this team. I'd recommend Urban Hound to anyone that cares for their furry friends.

We checked out quite a few places and what set RWC apart is the emphasis on staff training and a carefully maintained staff-to-dog ratio. That means it does book up on busy weekdays and holidays, so reservations are required, which isn't as necessary at a lot of places. Our dog gets easily overwhelmed in new situations, and they've been brilliant at helping her cope and get enough downtime. We love that they have the treadmills, which helps our active dog calm down and focus. Their trainer Star introduced "wait" to her instead of "stay," and it's made a noticeable difference. We've had great chats (in person and by email) with Jodie, the RWC owner, and we love how committed she is to high standards and creating a healthy and safe environment for dogs. I'd say it's a bit pricier than some options, but RWC's commitment to fairly compensating and training their staff is a great thing to see in this industry and, of course, ultimately results in a better experience for the dogs as well.

During the tour we discussed that our dog would be 7 months old during his stay (DOB Aug 19th 2025, making him 7 months old and 16 days at the start of the boarding on April 4th 2026). Their policy is that dogs over 7 months old must be fixed, so since we were right at that point, we wanted to see if he needed to be fixed. WE WERE TOLD HE DID NOT NEED TO BE FIXED DURING OUR TOUR WITH THE OWNER. Once he passed the evaluation, we made our reservation with the assistant manager and again confirmed that everything was acceptable with his age and intact state. AGAIN, WE WERE TOLD EVERYTHING WAS ACCEPTABLE AND ALLOWED TO MAKE THE RESERVATION. WE WERE ALSO TOLD THAT THE MANAGER HAD SIGNED OFF SINCE IT WAS ON THE CUSP OF THE AGE REQUIREMENT. After drop off, he was suddenly isolated for most of his stay with no communication via app, text, or phone, despite us opting into all alerts. We only discovered this by viewing the cameras. We saw him once on the camera, in a play pen, alone. No staff interacting with him, no dogs, nothing. He was pacing the side of the pen clearly upset. Heartbreaking. At pickup I asked what was going on with our dog. The manager replied that there were no issues. I asked again why he was separated and got the same answer. I asked a third time and pointed to the monitor in the lobby and asked why he was isolated and stated that he was clearly upset (at this point he was alone in a play pen pacing, which was currently on the monitors in the lobby). She looked at her computer and told me it was because he's not neutered and over the age requirement since he was over 8 months. I was in disbelief, especially since he was in fact 7 months old. We had checked and double checked that this would not be an issue and were reassured it would not be. After telling me there wasn't an issue, she then tried to say they were unaware of his age when they made the reservation, another blatant lie. The manager claimed our dog was over 8 months old and said they had to follow the "7-month rule" (even though he was) or they could get in "big trouble". I said this appeared to be an internal policy since other facilities had difference age requirements, including one in Spanish Springs which was 12 months. The manager then proceeded to tell me that that facility uses cattle prods on the dogs in their care, so good luck taking our dog there...the unprofessional nature of this manager was astounding. At this point I asked for partial refund since daycare (included in the boarding fee) was not provided. The manager said she had to call the owner. She came back and said that the owner said because he was over 8 months old it was our fault and we signed a waver. I expressed my displeasure with that response, and she said she'd go call again. The manager never came back and instead sent the assistant manager to collect the fee. I asked where the discount was and she said that I wasn't paying for daycare just boarding...? While I was paying the assistant manager kept saying they didn't isolate our dog and took great care of him. Ironically, during this discussion another staff member walked in and interjected herself into the conversation and said that we received a phone call when they decided to separate our dog (yet another lie). The assistant manager looked at the staff member and told her to stop talking. I tried to inquire about this supposed phone call and our dog being 'separated' and the assistant manager told me to be the bigger person and just leave. The treatment our dog received was unacceptable. The staff are unprofessional and dishonest. I strongly recommend going anywhere else. I wish I had taken the other negative reviews more seriously.
