What Reviews Say
98 reviews analyzedThe Dog Company is highly regarded for its attentive staff and detailed communication, specifically through daily report cards and Facebook photo updates. While the facility excels at boarding and accommodating dogs with social anxiety through specialized playgroups, it maintains a strict safety policy that has led to friction with owners of nervous or reactive dogs during assessments. Overall, customers praise the cleanliness of the facility and the fact that dogs return home happy and well-exercised.

Mixed sizing in playgroups
