Doggie Spa & Day Care

I have boarded our dog at this kennel at least 5 times. Not only is my dog obviously well cared for but so are the owners. I have either observed incredible customer service given to other pet owners or been on the receiving end. I love the personal service provided by asking that only one dog be checked in at a time. There's a sign asking owners to wait to enter the check in area if someone else is checking in. This really reduces my anxiety about lots of strange dogs meeting each other for the first time in a small place. When it's our turn we get all the attention we need and are never rushed. I can't say enough nice things about the Doggie Spa & Day Care.

I don't ever leave my dog anywhere else. Nigel is more than 10 years old and he comes home from "Uncle Kirk's Doggie Camp" with the energy of a puppy. I think he enjoys it there more than home, mostly because of the play times with equally matched playmates. They bathe him for me and send home a fluffy, happy dog. I know that I need to make reservations weeks or months in advance because it's a pretty popular place.

The Doggie Spa is indeed a SPA. If you want to pamper your dog on your busy day or if you crave the Crribeans and want your beloved foursome in trusted, expert hands - the Dogie Spa is the place you should consider. Top people, top service = happy dog, in + happy dog out (-:

Doggie Spa and Day Care is always great to our dog. They know her and how she plays and take excellent care of her.

This place is terrific. We have been bringing our dog to DSDC for over 3 years. She goes 2x/week and we have 24/7 access to her "room" so that we can bring her and pick her up at any time. We also board her here when we go on long trips. The people who work here are great. They clearly love dogs. We brought our dog here to get additional exercise and to become accustomed to socializing with other dogs. What a difference this has made. The facilities are clean and we have never had a problem with fleas, ticks or other maladies that dogs often get when boarded. We highly recommend DSDC.

My dogs have been going to the Doggie Spa since they were little. It taught them how to be social with other dogs. They actually get really excited when we hit the gravel road leading up to the Spa, because they know where we are. They get their own room--no cages! --and come home very tired from all of the playing. I like not having to worry about anything while I'm out of town--special dog food, medication, whatever, it will be taken care of. I don't trust anyone else with my dogs.

Not sure what a star is, but I love to be dropped off at Doggie Spa. I can spend time in the open air yards with my friends, and make new friends. And the staff makes my day. They feed me, and clean up after me. And I get to listen to NPR, so I keep up with the latest news. That way when I go home, I can be current on world happenings. Not as fun as a bone, but OK. Why don't you meet me there! It's a date! Woof

That is what my dog thinks when he goes there for day care. He comes home, and goes right to sleep. I know he is running and having a great time with the other dogs. Other daycares I looked at put them in cages most of the day! They cannot even compare to Doggie Spa

Love the place! When I arrive I am usually dog-tired. After all, it is an 8-1/2 hour drive from home in New Jersey and enroute I often feel I should be dog-tied from dealing with all those Washington-Baltimore government employees abusing all the traffic laws in that corridor knowing they have little risk of being pulled over by the local PD or my friends in the canine unit. I muzzle my comments so as not to upset the other vehicle occupants - sort of the human equivalent of biting one's tongue. I look forward to the wide-open space, luxurious accommodations, comraderie of my brethren speciesd and the superb meals and beverages served. Though I'm no lap canine I certainly lap up a few to take the edge off upon arrival! Dare I say that the staff some really are hot human biscuits - I admit I've savored a few appendages now and then - YUMMY! Anyway, I could go on and on but will leash my comments lest you think me a brown-nose; mine's actually cold, wet and black.
