K-9 Kidz is the epitome of what a dog daycare should be - knowledgeable, compassionate, and informative. From the moment you step into their facility, it's evident that the staff truly understands the unique needs of each canine companion.Their expertise shines through in the way they manage the introduction of each dog. The team at K-9 Kidz takes great care in ensuring the safety and enrichment of every pup. They personalize the environment based on each dog's individual needs, showcasing their dedication to providing a tailored experience.One aspect that particularly impressed me was their attention to detail when it comes to the pick-up and drop-off process. Recognizing that some dogs may be afraid of other humans or have leash-reactivity, they provide clear instructions to each pet parent. They ask everyone to wait their turn before entering the facility to grab their pup, minimizing any potential stress or discomfort for the dogs. While it may seem strict at first, these guidelines demonstrate their genuine care and compassion for each canine in their care.It's evident that the staff at K-9 Kidz goes above and beyond to create a wonderful experience for both the dogs and their humans. Their commitment to understanding and catering to the unique needs of each dog is truly commendable.If you're looking for a dog daycare that prioritizes the safety, well-being, and happiness of your furry friend, look no further than K-9 Kidz! Their knowledgeable and compassionate approach sets them apart, and I couldn't be happier with the exceptional care they provide.

K-9 Kidz was recommended to us last year, and we are so glad we found them for our younger dog, Callie! We've tried a variety of day/overnight boarding places in the past, but none have come close to K-9 Kidz in terms of quality and care.Christina is so helpful and kind. She also has an incredibly calm demeanor which is so key when working with dogs, especially large puppies like ours. We've had to board Callie a couple of times recently, and while we are always sad to drop her off, she is bolting out of the car. When we pick her up, she is always tired and extremely happy. I haven't used their training services yet, but if our experience is any indication of what those would be like, they are top-notch.We highly recommend K-9 Kidz!

Cannot say enough good things about K-9 Kidz. Our dogs have gone there for over four years now and love being there. K-9 Kidz is their second home, and the staff are their second family. Christina is so calm, accommodating, and knowledgeable, and offers helpful guidance when we've encountered behavioral or health challenges with our pups. It's been wonderful to see the business grow over the years and to make use of all of the offerings that they have, including training, grooming, boarding, and even a dog toy "library". They have even allowed our vet to see our dogs at daycare for preventive care! We take so much comfort knowing that there is such a safe, enriching, and fun place for our dogs to be when we are working or traveling, and will be eternally grateful for K-9 Kidz! Get your dog on the waitlist now, you will not regret it!

Christina, Eric and Alexa are amazing! Such a wealth of knowledge and so incredibly helpful -not only when he’s there, but when other questions come up in between! Porter is always so happy to go right in and play with all of his buds-and to have a chance to just be a dog! I work all day and being a one year old pup, he has way too much energy to be in a crate all day. Being at “kidz” gives him a chance to socialize and learn the ropes of interacting with other dogs (and he seems to really thrive with the routine we have established going several days a week). I also love the fact that he can get groomed there (and it can happen during a planned time at daycare, so it’s not “another thing” I have to do on a day off)! We take advantage of regular baths and grooming!!!! I really can’t say enough about how much I appreciate K9 kidz for daycare, boarding and grooming!

I highly recommend Christina and K-9 Kidz for doggy daycare and boarding. I have been taking my rescue dog there for months and boarded during the holidays for a week and have only had the best experiences. I feel very confident that my dog is safe and having a great time while she is there. She loves it there so much that she is jumping out of the car and into the the daycare. 10 out of 10

One of my two dogs has been attending K-9 Kidz since its very first week open, and my other dog started attending as soon as her vaccinations allowed. Both of them are SO excited to go to daycare twice a week! They love the ample play space, the thoughtfully divided play groups, and the kind and attentive owners and staff. We use K-9 Kidz for twice weekly daycare, occasional overnight boarding, and grooming, and have been extremely happy with the attention and care our dogs are given. The owners, Christina & Eric, are often able to accommodate our flexible scheduling needs, give great advice for training and minor health concerns, and I trust them implicitly with the care of my pups. They've continually invested in the facility over the past few years, making K-9 Kidz safer, cleaner, more engaging, more accommodating for diverse needs, and more efficient. Highly recommended. I don't know what we'd do without them!

Hi! I’m Bo and I love to go to K9Kids! I have a great time outside running and playing with all the other dogs. I have many friends here. We can dig, and roll in the grass (and sometimes snow or mud!) and find acorns and cool stuff! I come to play and hang out when my family goes to work. My family knows I’m safe here- and that I have a great day. When I’m not with my family, then I want to be with my K9Kids family!

My English Springer Spaniel puppy and I love K-9 Kidz. She started at 3 months of age in the 8 weeks to one year puppy daycare. We started with two half days a week and now at 4 months of age she goes 2 full days a week. She is very excited when she realizes it is a K9 Kidz Day!My vet recommended K9 Kidz to help socialize my pup and decrease the chance of her being reactive with other dogs. The facility is perfect with a very large fenced yard for active playtime. The staff is very knowledgeable about dog behavior and my initially shy pup is now confident and not reactive with other dogs.k-9 Kidz offers the option (extra fee) for one-on-one with a trainer. Even though I have experience showing dogs in performance, my pup and I found the trainer to be very helpful! My pup is quickly becoming a pleasure to be around thanks to K-9 Kidz.

The folks at K9 Kidz were awesome when my anxious dog started daycare. They are fear-free and really work with the dog and human to understand what they need to be happy at daycare, what advice/training the dog/human needs to be successful, and will be open and honest if the dog isn't having a fun time in that environment. We love K9 and it's Stella's "second home" a few days a week where she gets to play with her doggie friends in a warm, genuine, fear free, and R+ environment.

We absolutely love K9 Kidz! Our pup has been attending daycare for over a year now and has the time of his life every day there. When we have to take trips and board him, it makes me feel so much better to have people who I trust completely watching over our boy and giving him the best experience. I couldn’t recommend them enough!

While my 6 month old German Shepherd, Hans, was too anxious for K-9's atmosphere, the staff tried their very best to help him adjust and be happy every day. I am going to use their one-on-one trainer to see if that will help Hans' anxiety and fearfulness. The dogs I saw being dropped off and picked up were very, very happy. It's a well run doggie day care. I'm hopeful that Hans will be ready for it in another 6 mos or year. We will definitely go back.

For over three years Sukey has enjoyed the perks at K-9 that come to every dog there. I am 100% confident in the care she receives - Christina, Eric and their team from kid, to adult, to veterinarian there she's covered! Warm in Winter, Cool in Summer, it's paradise. She plays, walks with Eric and Christina every day, naps with her best pals. Her days and occasional nights are never traumatic always a normal end to a good day of activity. I recommend this Dog Heaven Team....fully. Jess

K-9 Kidz is great! Christina, Eric, Alexa and of course the kids and other helpers are what makes it great.They truly care about each and every animal in their care. Their compassion for their clients, is visible in all they do, and all the extra things they do. Pictures with Santa, special Thanksgiving dinners for boarders, pictures showing how our fur babies are playing with their friends. They go the extra mile.Clover loves seeing her friends every day and it’s wonderful knowing they are safe with the K-9 Kidz family. Thanks 💖

We've been sending our dog here for daycare for going on two years now and have nothing but glowing things to say about them! Christina and Eric are the nicest people, genuinely care about the safety of their dogs, and are always reliable. Our dog loves going to daycare here so much! It's really her second home, and she comes home happy and tired. They are the people to trust with your dogs!

I can't say enough about how much we love K-9 Kidz. Christina is a delight and truly has a way with dogs. She has done so much to ensure their happiness and well-being, starting with creating so much ample space for outdoor play every day. Our dog loves it! I cannot recommend K-9 Kidz more highly; they are not only wonderful to the dogs, they're wonderful to us humans too! I can't imagine a more organized, reputable, consistent experience.

Christina is my go to provider for my dogs! She has a beautiful and large fenced in area that my dogs love to explore and play in. She also personally owns two friendly dogs that enjoy playing with my large breed pups. I would recommend K-9 Kidz to anyone that is looking for doggy daycare!

I have a crew of four (two beagles and two mixes) who recently spent eight nights at K9 Kidz while I was on vacation. I couldn't be happier with the experience. Christina and her husband have created a wonderful facility for local pups. The service provided to both owners and their pups is outstanding. It's so nice knowing your K9 friends are not only being well cared for but also being loved and having fun to boot. I really appreciate the fact that K9 Kidz has created a facility which is "open" for new customers to see ... there's no handing your dogs over to an employee at the door and watching them disappear behind a door. Christina also texted photos of the dogs enjoying their stay! I highly recommend K9 Kidz and applaud them for responding to a local need so successfully.

If I could give more than 5 STARS, this business would get it.I love the family feels of this establishment, and I absolutely love, how they LOVE my dog. I just left him to board for 2 nights and 3 days, and I did not feel any sense of discomfort doing so.I feel 100% that my doggo will be safe every time I leave, and if you love your animals as much as I do, that is an amazing feeling!Thanks so much to this family for all of their dedication.

I found K-9 Kids through a couple friends and loved it the first time i looked at it on line. Sophia (11 weeks) old can't wait to get there every morning and she has only been going 4 days. She gets so much attention she is tuckered out when we get home. 10 stars...

My dog was very comfortable at K-9 Kidz daycare for a few days. She has separation anxiety and is not big on daycare, but she always came home tired in the evening, so I could tell she had a stimulating day despite that.
