- SSSloane ShererDec 2, 20255.0Wag Days has been so great for my puppy! He just finished puppy preschool and has come out a more confident, chill dog and knows basic commands. The staff is great at communicating what he learned so I can reinforce it at home. They also are good at accomdating my picky dog. He's doing enrichment daycare now once a week and loves it! And as a bonus, he comes home super tired every day he's there.
- KDKelsea DaySep 26, 20255.0Wag days has been amazing for socializing my puppy! She started at puppy preschool and now is a full on socialized pup! The people that work there are amazing and I have only had great experiences. Both the boarding program and day care are amazing and I recommend this to every pup owner I know!
- DSDana SachsOct 30, 20245.0Our dog started at Wag when she was about 5 months. It's been almost a year now and she can't get out the door fast enough to get to school. Nora and the staff really love the dogs as their own. I love watching the stories and seeing Holly playing with her friends throughout the day. Thank you so much for all the fun safe space you provide the dogs.
