Pooches And Purrs

We’ve been taking our little Chihuahua mix here since he was 3 months old and I seriously don’t trust anyone else to take care of him besides family and the wonderful people at Pooches n Purrs! The place is always clean and our dog is always happy and clean when we pick him up. The owners really know dogs. They have answered questions and helped out more with behavioral things then some vets because they truely understand dogs. What I really like is that our dog is having fun and on his own vacation while we’re on vacation because they don’t crate the dogs. They also separate the small dogs from the big dogs. I don’t know what I would do without them!

My roommate has been bringing his 90 lb black lab for Doggie Day Care for years. I do pick up/​drop off a solid amount of times now that I feel I can speak accurately about the quality of care you get here.
When I try to take the big guy home he literally goes ape sh*t when seeing the staff. By the time we get home he’s pooped and and ends up dozing off for the rest of the evening as opposed to his normal «i want attention give me attention now now now» attitude. So at the very least, I know he’s being entertained well and getting lots of excercise/​play time during his stay.

I had to leave my rescue chihuahua mix dogs when I went to a wedding. They aren’t very friendly when they’re with me and I was terrified. I chose Pooches and Purrs because they offer «solitary confinement». From the first conversation with Keith, I relaxed. This was The Place for my dogs. Keith said maybe we could try socializing the dogs and my heart soared. That’s just what I was dreaming of but was afraid to put that burden on them. And he offered! Wow! Needless to say, the staff at Pooches and Purrs was amazing. Chili & Pepper bonded with them, and didn’t notice we came to pick them up until we were ready to leash them. They played with others, and were clearly happy. I was so moved by how much the family of owners at Pooches and Purrs took on being my dogs’ family. I’ve already made reservations for a trip in three months and they said they couldn’t wait to see our girls again! Made my heart happy. You’ll love this place!

These folks really care about what they do. Our dog heads here once a month for at least an overnight. They are easy to work with, and were especially flexible when our vacation was cancelled due to a winter storm. we dropped our dog off one night and picked him up the next day because we couldn’t get flights out (thank you southwest!).
They are inexpensive as far as daycares go in the area. There is always someone on-​site with the overnight furkids. Our dog doesn’t need to be crated to go to bed at night. and he comes home happy and exhausted. The owners work with the local dog rescues to assist in fostering and taking care of dogs that might not be good in a kennel situation. We’ll keep bringing our furkid here!

I’ve been taking my dog here for over two years. He loves it. The owners and staff really care about the dogs they take care of. I wouldn’t trust anyone else but family to watch my little guy.
