Ruff House is amazing. I take my dog, Shadow, there at least once a week for doggy daycare. As soon as I walk in, the staff is already greeting Shadow with love and pets. He always comes home tired and with a tail wagging full of happiness.

Ruff House has been boarding our dog Mishka for the last year or so. The staff is fantastic and they always take great care of her. I get fantastic photos every day and she loves playing with the other dogs. One of the best parts is that their play area has turf meaning she doesn’t get muddy or dirty when she’s there. Ruff House has been great for us and our dog!

I’ve taken my high energy Australian Shepherd to Ruff House for almost 3 years now and have had nothing but wonder experiences! We board her here whenever we are out of town and take her to doggie daycare at least twice a week. The staff is always so friendly and great with her. She loves all the playtime and always comes home happy and tired!

Ruff House Dog Resort is absolutely amazing! Our golden retriever, Soleil, loves going here for both daycare and boarding — she can barely contain her excitement when we pull into the parking lot! The entire staff is so kind, caring, and attentive; it’s clear they truly love what they do and treat every dog like their own.
It’s such a fun, loving, and safe environment, and we always have total peace of mind knowing Soleil is in the best hands. We couldn’t ask for a better place for her to play, socialize, and be spoiled with love. Highly recommend Ruff House to any dog parent looking for a safe trustworthy second home for their pup! 🐾💛 we absolutely LOVE the entire staff + RuffHouse!!!! Grateful!!!! Thank you!!!! 🙏

We’ve been taking our dog to Ruff House for 2 years and we absolutely love it!! If our dog Skeeter could leave a review she would say, it’s the best place ever!!! I love all the caring people there especially Macie, I love seeing her every morning, she gives me lots of kisses and lots of petting. I also love all my doggie friends, and all the workers treat me so nice and are always happy to see me. I look forward to going to doggie daycare, but I sure am tired when my mommy picks me up, but can’t wait to go back the next day.
