Wags To Wishes

I would definitely recommend this place! My dog absolutely loves it. I left Roberto (my dog) this last December for the first time. I liked how professional the team was about meeting my dog before boarding, asking for all vaccinations to his vet and even ask me to leave him for one day before boarding so that he gets familiar with the place and also, they could see how he behaved. I had an interview with the trainer and see that everything was good. Really professional and they seem to really care about the dogs. I had horrible experience in other boardings but this one was really great!

Be very careful.
I used their services in April and my dog loved it, so we scheduled again in July when we were leaving on a cruise.
The day we were leaving on the cruise I dropped off my dog (lily) and everything seemed fine. At around 1:30 pm when I was at the port ready to board the ship I get a phone call from the owner saying that our dog was behaving differently. Apparently according to them she was being aggressive with the other dogs.
She basically asked me to go pick her up, and that she was unable to have her for the week. My first thought what the heck do I do I am boarding my ship in less than an hour.
What would have happened if I did not answer the phone?
I had to ask family to pick her up and watch her for the week while I was away.
I was very disappointed that they chose to put me in this situation knowing that I was at the port of Miami ready to board my ship.
Afterwards, my family told me the story with my dog and that the other dog involved did in fact stay but mine was asked to leave.
Why? Did the other owner get called as well? According to what I was told the other dog was the one that actually attempted to bite my dog. My dog did not attempt to bite anyone or any other dog for that matter.
I understand that things may happen that require for owners t be asked to have their dogs to be picked up but the owner was not considerate of my situation and was not willing to accommodate or assist in any way. She basically demanded that I pick up my dog.
Oh well, I found another service closer to home and better.
I hope this does not happen to anyone else…

My dog thinks this is the greatest hotel/​spa on earth!
She has traveled across the USA first class, but as soon as we head over the Causeway towards Wags to Wishes, she starts talking and wagging her tail a mile a minute.
I can’t really think of a better endorsement.

Used their services approx. 2 years a go. Liked the concept but just okay in what I wanted for my dogs. They do offer organic food, however, prefer that my dogs diet remain consistent and believe they would too when they are left to clean up after my pups. I liked the open concept, however, my dogs never seemed to get any down time. I was leaving my dogs for boarding and the owners did not have an area for that even though it is offered for a charge… for example I offered to bring their kennels which is what they are used to and the owner said it wasn’t necessary she would take them home w. her and essentially they would sleep w. her. Nice of her to offer but my dogs are used to a certain routine and their kennels are their ‘nests’ at night so to speak. Very nice people but the style is not condusive to maintaining my dogs routine and felt that it made them a little too hyped up and no area for them to relax. Daycares should have cycles of activity and relaxation… this just felt like there was always activity and no down time. They did have movable fencing to separate the dogs but seemed to us when we visited they were all together regardless of size. My dogs are on the smaller side less then 25 lbs, and they can hold their own but it is tiring for them especially the male dog… he’s alpha at home and when he gets tired around other dogs he gets cranky and snippy if not left alone. Just not enough control /​process in the place for me but I got my pups home safely and only found one tick.

This is a horrible place. I left my dog here for 11 days while on vacation. When I picked him up the owner told me he was bathed that morning. I have never seen my dog that filthy before-​I had to shampoo him twice. She also said he had an eye infection for the past 4 days. RATHER THAN TAKE HIM TO THE VET, she diagnosed him herself and gave him antibiotic drops. My dog has a huge tear in his eye, had any of her employees taken the time to actually look at it. Who knows if another dog bit him, scratched him or what as she told né he liked to play with the big dogs. He is a 5 month old cocker spaniel who weighs under 20 lbs with no business being mixed in with 85 lb dogs. He also has been eating and drinking out of control all day as if he was not fed adequately and looks thinner. PLEASE do not leave your animal in their care

My lab mix stayed here for 4 nights while I was out of town and the people running it were very nice! They didn’t even mind when I called (several times) to make sure my dog was ok and getting along with everyone. The dogs get plenty of walks and they get to hang out with other doggies all day because of the cageless environment. The dogs are split into several different categories based on their size and which dogs they get along with. The price was also a plus, only $ 28 or $ 30 per night for my 60+lb dog! Next time I will bring my dog’s own food instead of having her eat the organic food, because even though I’m sure it’s very healthy, she has a sensitive stomach.
They will also come to your house to pick up and drop off your dog. They have dog walking packages: $ 260 for the month (20 days) or $ 150 for a 10 day package. The only downside? They don’t offer walking services on Saturday when I’m in school :(

Floor to ceiling windows on the bay. Cage free. Organic raw food meals. Healthy snacks. Must be neutered or spayed to roll with the crew. Affordable and loving grooming. Knowlegable about grooming needs and techniques. Going out of their way to provide the loving day care a dog should have. Wags is the spot!
Located on the waterfront side of a condo in North Bay Village, these folks are in the doggie know. My dog loves the people who work there and they know that she’s a shy shepherd female mix with special needs. They know she is not always feeling the big dog vibe so they move her to the small dog section and she frolicks with pugs and beagles. What more could a sore hipped-​german shepherd want? And half the price of most doggie day care centers! With raw food and lots of playtime! A great find. They also travel to walk your dog. Check them out.
