About Playful Pack
Playful Pack in Alexandria is a dog daycare and boarding facility, conveniently located near Mt Vernon Shopping Plaza on Richmond Highway. The clean and safe environment, along with the dedicated and loving staff, has been a positive experience for both dogs and their owners. Upon arrival, dogs have access to spacious play areas equipped with artificial turfed potty areas, featuring a commercial drainage system for optimal cleanliness. Owners appreciate that the staff quickly remember dogs’ names and understand their personalities, making every visit special. The facility offers report cards, pictures, and live webcam access, allowing owners to stay connected and watch their dogs play and rest. A French Bulldog, after a few months of visits, has grown fond of the staff and facilities, often requiring assistance to leave due to his eagerness to stay and play. A recently adopted pup, initially shy, has also grown to love the staff and playtime after 6 weeks of visits. Many owners have noted that their dogs get excited when they walk through the door and enjoy socializing with other dogs. It’s common to see dogs pass out for a nap after playtime, which owners find reassuring. The clean and professional facilities are highly appreciated, though some owners have mentioned they would like to see an outdoor play area and more comfortable rest spaces for their dogs. The addition of webcams is especially valued, making it easy for owners to check in remotely. Overall, Playful Pack in Alexandria is a well-regarded dog daycare and boarding facility that provides a safe, fun, and caring environment for dogs of all kinds.
We take our dog here at least once a week for daycare and have also boarded her. She is always so excited to go play with her friends including the staff. The staff greet her by name. When we pick her up she has had so much fun that she doesn’t always want to come home. We feel safe leaving her there. We have been bringing our dog here for the last year and half.
Our dog has only been a few times, but he gets excited when he walks through the door and greets the staff. It’s great to watch him on the webcam interact with the other dogs and finally pass out for a nap. I recommend Playful Pack Alexandria if you want your dog to have socialization and a great time!
Absolutely love Playful Pack. They came recommended to me by my rescue dog's foster human. Very friendly and caring staff. They were great with my shy pup. I love that I can access the webcam any time I want to check in on her. Great for when I have to be in office for longer than usual periods.
