I would give them all the stars if I could. We have two small pups with separation anxiety, who had previously only ever stayed with family when we travelled. We needed to go out of town for a family wedding, so there was no family left in town to watch the dogs this time. Our pups stayed for four nights. Our youngest pup has some trauma and isn’t the quickest to warm up to men, or the most social. We are your typical “our dogs are our kids” type couple so we wanted a place that we could feel really good about leaving them. They took AMAZING care of our pups. By the time we came to pick them up - our youngest was loving all the handlers, even the men, and both pups were happily socializing with other dogs in the play yard daily. The peace of mind provided by the near daily report cards, photos, and video feeds truly made our vacation SO much more enjoyable. It felt like they really treated our dogs as their own. This is where we will be going for any doggy daycare or training needs going forward, and we’ve already been recommending this location to all of our family and friends.I wanted to also be sure to specifically mention Cade & Lindsay (sp?) as they are the two employees we interacted with the most and they went absolutely above and beyond.The ONLY possible feedback I could give is that I wish we’d had a better understanding of what we paid when we booked vs when we picked up. We booked a package & thought we’d paid for everything up front, but did have a balance when we picked up. HOWEVER - this is partially on US, and it was still more than worth it. Just mentioning this for others to keep in mind so they don’t make our same oopsie!UPDATE 10/11/25: ANOTHER 5 star stay from us. We went on a 6 night cruise out of country this time. Without much service we had to trust where we left our pups even MORE. This Paw Commons location was once again fantastic. We let them know it would be difficult to call so they should text if needed - and they did. When we called to book our pups stay they were excited to have them back. When we were at port and had signal checking the cams was fun & gave us peace of mind. We were worried we wouldn’t make it to pick our pups up before closing time and they even accommodated us in that aspect!Update 11/03/25: our pups only spent the weekend this time. We were slightly nervous bc our 3yo cracked her molar on a toy, though she seemed unphased tbh. We left “as needed” meds and they monitored and gave them to her once when they noticed a slight change. Each time we take our pups they seem more ok with going, and each time we book them the staff seems more excited to have them back. Our dogs will likely permanently be staying here as needed.
