Owners highly recommend it, appreciating the service and knowing their pets are always in good hands.
Facility tour provided a good overview of the daycare/boarding options. It is a clean facility. Staff are attentive and welcoming. The initial two day daycare sessions were a hit. Loved the photos WAG sent. The San Diego - Mission Valley location/hours gets a five paw rating.

My two Yorkies love, love, love to vacation at this hotel! They play and we can see them on video. We also get a daily “memory” photo of each fur kiddo. And, a report card when they “check out.”

Found some really awesome toys for my dog here, and the staff was super friendly and helpful. It’s nice to have a local place where I can get everything I need for my pup without having to go online. Definitely coming back!
