I was never a big fan of “doggy daycares,” but now that I have a rescue dog with severe anxiety and attachment issues, he needs somewhere to go when I can’t be with him. K9s Only has been a lifesaver and they are SO patient with him. They even suggested he do “trial runs” to get used to the employees, so you can tell everyone there genuinely cares about the dogs they work with. I really never expected to trust strangers with my dog, but now I’ll never go anywhere else. The space is also super clean, welcoming — even fairly quiet for a daycare! So send your pups here! They’ll be in great hands.

Our dog seems to love it here, so we keep coming back. The prices are a little steep but the staff is great.

I did not enjoy my visit with my three month old puppy. There was confusion between the person who scheduled my appointment and the trainer was clearly annoyed and unprepared to safely evaluate a puppy with only two vaccine rounds. As a result the visit felt like a waste of time. I was shuffled outside on the hot pavement with no seating where Brittany the trainer explained my puppy was a poor candidate for board and train because he wasn't an adult with established bad habits. I'm not sure why I wasn't told that over the phone to save myself the trip. When I mentioned my most urgent concern was my puppy chasing my cat she responded "Well I don't know what we can do about that". I was ultimately handed a brochure for puppy preschool and the trainer explained she didn't know much about it since it wasn't her program. I left with a sour taste in my mouth and a hot uncomfortable puppy. I found another facility closer to home that I felt worlds more comfortable with and a trainer that seemed to genuinely care about my dog.

Great puppy grooming by Brandon, who was kind, gentle, talented and wonderfully generous to me and my matted long hair rescue pup ????

I brought my five-month-old Maltipoo Puppy for training with Britney for the six week program.I must say I was so impressed . The first day Dexter learned how to sit and down on command.!.His biggest problem is jumping up to get a treat , but very quickly he learned to wait for the treat . He has also learned down stay , wait, recall and touch which is so cute because he gives me his Paw..I would highly recommend K9sonly for training as well as Day care , he is always so excited to see Britt .

We have taken our Pitbull, Titan to K9s Only for both training and boarding ever since we rescued him 7rs ago. Both the training and boarding have been awesome! They genuinely care about our pup and communicate well how he's doing when in their care - a little pricey, maybe more so than nearby competitors - but not too expensive (yet) to force me to look elsewhere. Highly recommend them.

I have been working with Jamie , a wonderful trainer at K9s only. My two dogs, a german shepard and a pointer were in need of training for a lot of reasons. They are both older, 5 and 6 and have been with me constantly since Covid started. They had very little socialization and the shepard has severe separation anxiety made worse by Covid. Jamie has been a great help and has gone above and beyond expectations. Training both dogs at the same time was not an issue and was exactly what I needed. They were very difficult to walk at the same time and they both have made great strides and improvement! She is always there to answer questions and has personally taken both dogs under her wing when they have been at daycare. (also to get them socialized again). She is a pleasure to work with along with the rest of the staff. Whatever is needed during our one on one training she has stepped up to the challenge and task at hand, including using her own dogs to help with training on a leash with my dogs and going to a nearby park so we could be in a more distracting environment. Thank you Jamie and the whole staff at k9s Only!

Giovanni did a wonderful grooming job. His communication is great! And my dog loves to go to daycare there. We love that they keep the big dogs and the small dogs separated. Have been going there for four years and the experience just keeps getting better. Keep up the great work!

My mom had a medical emergency leaving me to care for her dog. At the same time I’m still technically an essential worker and her dog, though very smart and good at other things, is not good at being alone for any length of time. I called around and this was the only place that could take her in for day care immediately, despite not having previously done an evaluation. They took her in, did the eval that day and it wasn’t nearly as expensive as I though it would be. It’s also nice that they sell dog treats there because for a first time dog guardian like me, there’s a lot of conflicting information on what is and isn’t okay to give your dog (I.e. bully sticks, peanut butter, tracheas) and knowing their products are vetted by dog owners makes me feel more assured in my purchase. I should also mention they aren’t just day care, they’re a full service dog boarding facility with grooming and training services; and even though I laugh at the thought that a dog might need a tv in their suite, I’m sure some people like to pamper their dogs like that. Also this experience might not match your own, but anecdotally, my dog has been coming home much better behaved this past week I’ve been taking her to daycare. She used to get way too excited to see people and scare them, but now if I let her get the initial excitement out she’ll calmly let little kids pet her. Seriously thinking about hiring their trainer to teach me how to make her stop jumping up on people...

Jersey so enjoyed her stay at K9sOnly! She came home and slept the entire evening. Jamie also sent me a few lovely pictures during the stay to let me know that my little Jersey was doing well.

Our pups love going to daycare and staying the night in a private room. The staff is kind and communicative. We trust our little ones are in good hands when we leave them. Over the holidays, both our pups stayed for an extended time when my husband and I made a trip out of the country. We were sent daily updates via texts with photos! Our "kids" are so important to us that it felt good to not have to worry if they were taken care of. Will book with them anytime we need to leave them for a day or night.

I have nothing but great things to say about K9's Only. Its readily apparent that the team genuinely cares about each dog and will go out of their way to make them feel comfortable. My pup had some behavioral issues. Instead of telling me that my dog was no longer welcome, they devised a training regimen to tackle his issues. For that I am very grateful! I know I can always rely on K9's Only to take care of my pup as if he were family!

We can't even say the word "daycare" in our house without our dog getting extremely excited to go to K9's Only. He loves going to get his energy out with people that he enjoys being around. He can be a scared little guy and everyone there has been so wonderful to him that he really comes out of his shell and is super friendly with them.

We have been boarding our dog at K9s Only for the past 7 years and have always had good experiences. Our dog has always suffered from seperation anxiety when we are away and will typically go on a hunger strike after a day or two of boarding. When this happens the staff will mix chicken in with her food, which solves the problem, and the remainder of her stay goes smoothly. We know that she is in good hands and that is why we only board her at K9s Only. This summer during our vacation our dog unfortunatley had a seizure on the second day of her stay. The staff notified us immediately and with our consent took her to the emergency pet hospital. Without a history of seizures, or any other health issues, the vet determined it was most likely stress induced and hopefully a one time incident. The rest of her stay was incident free and she has been completely healthy and seizure free...until last week. My son and I were dropping off our dog at K9s Only and to my horror, she had a seizure during check-in. Having never witnessed this before, we were very shaken up. During her seizure I was vaguely aware that several staff members came out to help, among them Manny. Manny stayed with us throughout the incident and afterwards. Having to make the decision of taking my dog home and cancelling our vacation or leaving her there was easliy one of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make. Manny reassured me that she would be in good hands and that they have staff on hand who are trained to deal with these types of situations. He also moved her to a suite near the staff area in the back so someone would always have an eye on her. Later that evening I received a text message from the staff that she ate dinner and was doing well. Manny also sent me a video of her in her room which helped calm our nerves. Throughout her stay I received text messages with updates, pictures, and videos several times a day. When our dog became stressed during her walks, Ariel was quick to come up with an alternative plan. When she became picky about eating her kibble (as she always does), she was fed chicken. These are just a couple examples of what the staff did for our dog that I am personally aware of. They went above and beyond to do whatever they could for our dog and we are forever grateful. I would like to thank Manny, Ariel, Melanie, Austin, and everyone else (whose name I do not know) that had a hand in providing such amazing care for our dog. I hope the owner knows what a great team he has! It has now been several days since we picked up our dog and I am glad to report that she is doing just fine. Also, Manny and Austin have each reached out to see how she is doing. If you are looking for a safe, caring, attentive place to take care of your dog while you're away don't hesitate to call K9s Only.

They are truly such a wonderful staff. I had been to a lot of dog day cares but none welcomed me as warmly as they did at K9s only. I truly appreciate everything they did to welcome my puppy.

We just love K'9's for boarding and day care. Our golden retriever cannot wait to get in the door! Everyone that works there truly loves dogs and their humans! All of the other dogs there are socialized and delightful. They romp around in a huge room with watchful eyes making sure all is well. We are beyond grateful that we have found the perfect place to take Pippa. When she cannot be at home, K9's is her home away from home!

Excellent choice while vacationing in Venice!! They were able to accommodate us to care for my 4 month old puppy on same day request for an overnight stay. Rates were very affordable. Play time, cuddle time and walk time were well worth the small amount extra. Lola was very well taken care of and very happy when I picked her up. I would most definitely take her there again.
