Pet boarding/training near Bethel Park

“Xcel was recommended to me for agility classes and I cannot say enough good things about it! Machell is such a great trainer and my dog has gotten so good at agility thanks to her. Classes are small, everyone is friendly, and it’s a welcoming environment. Whether you are looking to compete or just want a fun activity to do with your dog, I highly recommend Xcel!“

“Sit Means Sit has been a great experience for us. They have helped our Finnegan be less reactive door reactive and be a better walker. The staff was great with him. He was stubborn being 7 years old but has picked up on everything. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for some
help with their furry friends.“

“We had a great experience here for grooming with Nyx! We were nervous going anywhere for our Australians Shepherd since she has a double coat and it was her first time, but she groomed our girl perfectly! No notes. We will be going back 🫶🏽“

“Pierogi, Pickles, & Iggy had a blast at their first boarding stay at Paws in the Paws. The owners Kyle & Tammy were both ER Vet Techs. That made me extremely confident leaving my beloved pets with them. I like their boarding facility. Their home is in the front. The kennel is in back. They have a big dog area & space seperate for the smaller dogs. They have a huge astrotuff play yard for group play & individual time with staff. My Doberman is a Service dog & unaltered. Many places wont accept unaltered males. I paid a small fee for staff to take him out by himself every day to play. For healthy growth Im waiting to neuter until age 2 so Im glad I had them as an option. We also had our two small dogs there. They boarded them together. Discount for same kennel too! The staff took them out as well to play since my Italian Greyhound is 7LBs with snap like a twig delicate legs. Our Dachshund played with him since I dont want other dogs running over the Wein's back. Paws in the Park has very fair pricing. Some of these other places are stupid expensive with rules that make you not want to be bothered with the hassle. Pierogi has tapped ears. Another place told me I couldnt bring him there in posts. Kyle had no issue with it. I had a friend close by too if his ears needed redone anyway. I was very pleased at pickup as well. Marina their employee that has worked there for 4 yrs was a sweetheart!!! Great with people & the dogs. She actually took a few minutes for each dog to give me a full report card about how they ate, played, & behaved while there. She personally had taken my dogs out for a lot of their 1 on 1 interactions. She genuinely seemed like she enjoyed them which made me feel good as an owner. They played but they mostly wanted to love on her & be cuddled. Ill pay for that too knowing that made them happy at their stay. They keep detailed notes on each pet on file. They returned all of my dogs items clean in a bag. Even the dogs were cleaner than I expected at P/U being in a kennel a week. I bathe them anyway coming home from a space thats shared with other dogs. They took some awesome pics of my boys! They also board cats. They have a cat area in their home away from the dogs which is less stressful for kitties. Im going away international come fall. Ill be calm knowing theyre in good hands!“

“Always 5 stars! Friendly paws is genuinely my dog’s favorite place other than our home. My dog gets so excited to go to daycare and runs towards our car to leave, only downside is that he doesn’t like leaving daycare ? The employees and owner truly care about your pets and treat them like their own.“

“Friendly to all. Great accommodations. Clean . Also sizes separated. Day and weekends.“

“My dog (she is an older puppy) has been attending for about 8 weeks because of my extended work hours. I wasn't really sure about the whole idea of daycare at first , but I can watch her and when I have questions, the staff answers them. They know my dog by name and they know the others too.

It was a short term solution, but I think I am going to keep her enrolled through the summer on my office days because she does seem to like it there.“

“Only place I trust with my big boy of a dog! Works with all our needs! Even takes special requests if needed!“

“We highly recommend Pawsitive K9! We reached out about our 6 year old golden doodle, Gatsby, who has some reactivity around kids and struggles with resource guarding of certain things. From the start, Bridget explained the game plan of what it would look like to work through these issues. Since she has started working with him we have been amazed by how much he has grown in his impulse control and overall behavior! He is capable of more than we could have imagined with her help. We did the 5 day camp k9 training package and are getting ready to start group classes with other dogs. Communication from Bridge is always clear with his homework, she has definitely tailored the training plan to fit his needs (e.g. bringing in her young son, who is an awesome helper, for our dog to safely work with getting comfortable with kids both at our home and the training facility), and she is responsive when we have questions between training sessions. We feel so comfortable when Gatsby is at training, as we know Bridget and the team are passionate about their work and tuned in to his specific needs. We are exciting to continue our training with Bridget and continue to see our pup grow!“

“My partner and I were nervous about my dog’s grooming appointment because we had a horrible experience at a big chain groomer. We were so pleased with how our shih tzu was returned to us! He looked so nice! The facility is clean and the staff are very friendly. Thank you so much to the groomer, Michaela. I recommend this place 100%!“

“We love Carriage Hill! We have a very protective Neapolitan Mastiff, Tony, that loves to be around humans, preferably girls. He has separation anxiety from people, but likes his space from other dogs. He may be a little high maintenance, but that’s how I can wholeheartedly say he absolutely loves his time being boarded here. I can relax when I’m out of town knowing he is in great hands!
The play time, the treats that are offered, the cozy suites, and the care he is given make it the best for our pup. He always comes home smelling great from his bath. Brooke and everyone here are so friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend Carriage Hill!“

“Great owner and doggie care givers. Super friendly and everyone loves the dogs. Spacious, open and very clean facility. Our dog loves going to daycare there and can't wait to get out of the car when we pull in the parking lot. So glad we found this place!“

“I had my 8 month old puppy board and train with Matt. He wasn’t “bad” but needed some obedience and leash training so that we could live the active lifestyle that I have in a more controlled but still fun way. Matt is AWESOME!! He cares about his program dogs, treats them like his own, and truly loves what he does. After a month, my lab came back being able to walk off leash, able to be around people and settle on his own, and responsive to the commands. I can’t recommend Matt and his programs enough!!“

“Our girl Frida LOVES Chubby Puppy daycare! It is her absolute favorite place to go. We’ve been taking her to Chubby Puppy for two years now and always have a positive experience.
Jean and Marty are fantastic with dogs and extremely knowledgeable. I trust that my dog is very well supervised and cared for at their facility.

“Will, and the grooming team are fantastic. Great customer service and did an amazing job with my dog. It was our first time using them, definitely not the last.“

“We love using Kennel Klub when we go out of town and can't take our good boy with us, as we know he's in the best care and the affordability is what keeps us coming back. Highly recommend“

“Fuzzy Farms is the best place! ? Our dog absolutely loves going there — tail wags nonstop! It’s such a fun, caring place! We couldn’t recommend them more. ❤️ ?“

“So much fun practicing agility in a laid back atmosphere. Taylor was so helpful and encouraging. Can't wait to go back.“
