Before we even brought our high energy Aussie Gracie home we knew we would need extra help to keep her stimulated and happy. What we didn’t account for was how shy and anxious she would be. I can’t even imagine what our lives would look like 3 years later if we did not walk through the doors of this amazing facility. With their love and care, Gracie has learned skills to be a social and confident young lady! The level of care is on a higher level than one would ever expect from a dog daycare. Good Dog co. is so much more than daycare. I encourage everyone to see for themselves what a fantastic place for dogs to be dogs through love and learning.

My 1 year old yellow lab absolutely loves going to school at Good Dog co! The staff is so friendly and you can tell they care for your pup like it was their own. My dog has never been more tired/satisfied than after a full day of daycare, playing with her friends. Bonus: they post photos at the end of the day so you can see what your pup was up to and who they were playing with :) I would absolutely recommend Good Dog co to anyone looking for a trustworthy daycare to take care of their pup.

Good Dog co has been a Godsend for our 6 year old blue heeler, Shadow!After adopting her as a 5 year old rescue from Kentucky in November 2022, we discovered she did not know how to play and was hesitant around other dogs.Our goal for this sweet loving girl was to find happiness for her in her life, so we opted to find a way to integrate her into the dog world. Four Paws, now known as Good Dog co, was the answer. She was slowly exposed to other dogs and through them, discovered she was a dog and had friends just like herself. I cannot say enough about the love, care, and compassion of the staff. Their daycare, school, and boarding goes above and beyond! You can feel relaxed and content knowing your pet is safe and happy in their care.Thank you Good Dog co from the bottom of our hearts, Rick and Colleen Miller

Good Dog Co is a great place for your pup! The staff are amazing and take care of the dogs like their own pets. Our pup has been attending day school and day care for over a year now and she loves every minute of it! The facilities are modern and well maintained for the comfort of the dogs, and they do a really nice job of vetting all new dogs to make sure any new additions get along well with the other dogs. Along with their excellent daycare and day school services, Good Dog Co also offers training, boarding, and grooming. We have had such a great experience overall and would highly recommend Good Dog Co!

We love Good Dog! My fur-baby has been going to daycare since we got her. She is not only loved all day by all of her pack, but she has training. They have a large outdoor space to run and play. Thank you!

Good Dog, where everyone knows your dogs name! Smaller groups within daycare allows for placement of your dog with others of similar temperament and play style. Good Dog has been a trusted partner for my dogs since 2016 and they are the best of the best. Love this crew!

We love Good Dog Co.! They take great care of my dog, he absolutely LOVES going twice a week to play with other dogs and get so much attention from the humans! They post pictures of all the daycare dogs daily, it is so fun to see all the dogs enjoying themselves! I highly recommend Good Dog Co.!

We left a review a couple of years ago and our satisfaction has only gotten better. Buster has been coming to Good Dog co for almost 3 years. He has grown from a little 11 pound puppy to a 70 pound dog. He has become a good dog to have around and also a good dog to play with others. We look forward to many more days for Buster.A great place to take your four legged pal. They are a very caring group of folks who make it a good experience for your pet. Our puppy is always very excited to go to day school. He comes home both tired and happy.

Update 01.09.24: One of my dogs (Morty - black lab/corgi? mix) has been attending Day School at Good Dog Co since he was a puppy and he loves it! Danielle, the owner, has always been extremely honest & flexible with us from the start regarding the best plan for both of our dogs; it's clear that the team here has your pet's best interests in mind rather than just making money. The team is constantly giving me updates and feedback so that I can enhance both of my dogs' experiences both at day school & at home (for example - telling me which days Morty enjoys the most based on the group & play styles). They even mentioned that my other dog Sam is probably not the best fit for Day School/boarding as he would be too anxious to enjoy it, and gave us a few things to work on with him. Danielle easily could have just taken our money while leaving Sam miserably anxious, but instead she took the honest route. I am so grateful for the Good Dog Co community. It really feels like a family. Also, the pictures they post on Facebook daily are so cute. I look forward to them each day :)Re: my original 2020 review below... we still take our Pyrenees/collie mix here once a month-ish for grooming. The staff has been so flexible with my anxious Sam, and they collectively work to set him at ease while he gets groomed. Julia does a fabulous job, leaving Sam smelling and feeling wonderful!2020 Post: Having just moved to the area, we have taken our 3.5 year old Pyrenees/collie mix here for grooming twice but now plan on taking him once a month! He suffers from separation anxiety but the employees at Four Paws put him at ease and make him feel comfortable, which gives us peace of mind. They do a great job grooming and are extremely friendly. They are also honest about my dog's temperament and will give me a rundown on how he was. I plan on using Four Paws for boarding as well if necessary. Definitely recommend!

I CANNOT recommend Four Paws enough. We brought our dog to them for daycare and just recently boarded her with them for a few nights - I cannot begin to say how at ease I felt knowing she was in such good hands. The staff goes above and beyond to give the dogs the best time, and I love that they update with pictures and texts to us on how her day went! I would recommend them to anyone, I love how they love on our dog so well :)

I came across Four Paws on Google when searching for the best daycare for my puppy. I am a crazy dog mom and also own a pet care service myself so I was VERY picky when it came to who I will trust with my baby. We decided to sign Kiyo up for the 15 day Day Training Program and it was the best decision we have ever made for him. He not only fell in love with all of Four Paws but he has came a long way as a very high active puppy to a very well behaved young man. After his training program, we decided to sign him up for continuous Day School. Four Paws is the only place I have ever seen offer this service and we absolutely love it. Since he is high energy, he not only needs physical exercise but also a ton of mental stimulation which is why Day School is perfect for him. He absolutely LOVES going to “school” and loves all of his Four Paws people friends.Grooming is also a plus! One stop shop for us and since Kiyo has already associated Four Paws with fun, he doesn’t mind getting groomed.Danielle is a great owner, very responsive, and genuinely cares about our baby. We couldn’t ask for a better place to send Kiyo.

Our dog started in the Good Dog training program and we couldn't be more impressed with the progress she made. She is a pit mix and we knew it would be important to have her well trained. She learned so much and had so much fun going that we couldn't stop sending her there and now we send her to day school. Everyone working there is so friendly and caring. They know who you are and who your dog is and we really feel that Marnie is safe and happy every day she is at Good Dog Co!

Wonderful place to send our fur babies! The staff is amazing! Our boys love to go play all day! They even come home smelling amazing and exhausted!

We have been coming to Good Dog Co for two years now. They never fail at meeting or exceeding our expectations. Our pup is always excited to go in and comes home extremely tired. The staff is friendly and take really good care of her when we board her for long weekends. Couldn't recommend them enough.

We have been sending our dog here since briefly after they opened! It was the best decision for our dog. He can be high energy and needs lots of exercise. They take such good care of him and when we mention daycare he goes nuts! He’s the type of dog that has anxiety in places he doesn’t like… definitely not here- that’s how we know he loves it! They also communicate so well with me and love Rizzo as their own!

My dog dodger goes here sometimes and he absolutely loves it!I had a very last minute thing pop up this weekend and Robin was able to get him in. I dropped dodger off and Matt gave him a warm welcome! Upon picking dodger up the next day, he did not want to leave 🤣. Ellie and Deonna were also very helpful with answering my questions and it’s very obvious they care about dodger! It is great to know dodger is in great hands and seeing him happy is so important to me. I highly recommend four paws and so does dodger. (Photos from four paws)

I was concerned about my dog when his daycare closed and I had to make the choice to move him. I went to a number of other sites but selected Good Dog Co because it was clean and the staff appeared genuinely interested. At first Cooper was apprehensive to go in buy by the 3rd or 4th time he was excited! 10 weeks later and my boy has his bounce back and can't wait to go to "school" and play with his friends. I made the right choice!

Our pup just loves Good Dog! She has tons of little friends, secured outdoor play, and somewhere to keep her warm to stay. We love that they provide tons of photos after every play day so you can see what your little furbaby was up to all day. Then when you pick up you get a tired warm happy pup. Our little one does the dayschool program and it has done wonders for her. Couldn’t ask for anything better!

We have been with Good Dog for about 6 months. My dog is fearful of most people and dogs. The staff at Good Dog is caring and helpful in working with us and encouraging. I’m glad we found somewhere that’s a good fit.

We knew Effie needed some socialization and looked into a few day care places. We couldn't be happier with Good Dog Co and all the staff. Effie loves her day there and starts whining in the car blocks away because she knows she is going to see her friends! We have also used their boarding and again, couldn't be happier with her care.

I simply cannot say enough good things about Four Paws as a business, their staff, and the owners. I've been using their services several times a week for a year and a half, ever since becoming a first time dog "parent". Every single experience has been positive. The staff is knowledgeable, compassionate, professional and their devotion to animals is obvious. I've used their daycare, grooming (which can be done conveniently while in daycare), and boarding services. When my little guy was going through some high anxiety and acting up, they brought it to my attention and allowed a special trainer in to observe and then provide all of us insight into causes and solutions. Four Paws is not just a facility that will "watch" your pet, but rather provide loving comprehensive care to keep them mentally engaged and assist with your training goals. I'll always be grateful to my dog's second family!

We love Good Dog Co! We bring our dog to the Day School program and she loves it. The staff does a great job working with her and making sure she has all the right tools to succeed.

I really love the website and ease of setting up daycare & boarding through it. Any time I have a question and need to call in everyone is helpful. The text line is so amazing to talk to a real person to figure things out when I can't call.Then my dog LOVES everyone there! She is a very social & high energy dog. I know they are keeping her busy by how quickly she passes out at home and how much her tongue is hanging out when I pick her up.Their groomer does an excellent job. After 2 weeks her coat is still soft, they definitely have great products & a gentle touch.

I recently changed groomers for my doodle. After much research I found Four Paws and am so pleased with them! They are very responsive and so nice and friendly. They made my pup look adorable!Great experience from start to finish.

Would highly recommend this facility. We’ve been taking our pup here for years, and they always care for him as if he were their own. Danielle and her team are the very best!

My dogs absolutely love the time they get to spend at Good Dog co. The whole staff is super respectful and compassionate of my dogs' needs and are so nice when you call to set up an appointment. They always tell you how your dog does during the day and even post pictures on their Facebook (super active on social media). All employees have a genuine love of dogs and it shows through their remarkable service. They're also not just a doggy daycare and boarding facility - they provide puppy training classes, grooming services, and a lot more. Very versatile and reliable as a company - would HIGHLY recommend!

This place is very clean and a friendly staff. I had to take my pet for there meeting to see if she will behave with other pets. My border collar didn't intact with the others so they said my pet will get sick if I was to leave her there for 5 days.. thanks.
