Hands down the best place for fur babies!! They are attentive, kind and greet my pups every time we come in. read more

Canine Republic - On our way to Doggie Daycare at Canine Republic! She loves it!!! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Plano, Texas

I boarded my dog for 4 days last May and I haven't thought about leaving them a review until now because I was already stressed out and didn't feel like arguing with them. Although the staff are nice and professional, when I got my dog back he had a big glob of green eye discharge on one eye. Didn't really think much of it until a day later he was still having eye boogers even after I cleaned it the night before. Turns out he had a full-blown eye infection and EVEN WORSE he gave it to two of my roommates' dogs. So I spent $300 out of pocket getting him checked up, getting eye medicine for him and for my two roommates' TWO dogs. Let me tell you, getting the eye medicine in for each of these dogs twice a day for a week was hell on earth for all of us. It seems like they don't really look at the current condition of the dogs when they're put in the playcare together so I'm not surprised if my dog got an eye infection from another dog staying there. Either way I paid almost $200 for the peace of mind that my dog would be safe and healthy by the time I got back and I didn't get that. During my vacation, I saw that they had charged me an extra $325. I called them immediately and they basically said oh my bad sorry, I'll refund you. Which they did, but still an unacceptable mistake. If you really want to take a risk, go ahead and spend the newly increased by $10 rate for the Lodge suite. Maybe your dog will get an eye infection that will spread like wildfire to your other dogs. Maybe not. read more

My dogs consistently have a top notch experience at Canine Republic Dog Resort. I can't say enough great things about the owner and his caring staff who make every visit seamless - from the online reservation process to the curbside pick up. Whether for a last minute weekend getaway or a longer vacation, the cost is reasonable, the accommodations are perfect and I am worry free because I know my dogs are in good hands. A+ experience every time! read more

The staff is always super friendly and helpful. My dog goes to doggy daycare occasionally and is boarded there when I am out of town. My dog comes home exhausted, with notes saying "Samson played hard today and loved being with his friends". By far my #1 choice for my dog. read more

I'm writing an update to our earlier review, as it seems some things have changed over the 3+ years we have been bringing Liberty to Canine Republic. We have LOTS of experience with Canine. Liberty has been a regular in daycare, boarding, and we even took advantage of the board and train option for Liberty with Confident Pooch. Today, we were notified that "we need to take a break or get training" because Liberty jumps on people, bruises them, and doesn't listen. In the 3+ years we have been here, this is the first time we have heard this, so it was a bit of a shock. Had this been something we'd heard on picking her up I think I would feel differently, but I think we will go ahead and take the (permanent) break. We don't have any of these behavioral issues with Liberty at home, and I'm trying to figure out exactly how we can train her to the daycare setting that she is in, or why this hasn't been a problem in 3 years, but is now. Our board and train through Confident Pooch was SUPER expensive, and has been effective for us. Confident Pooch was relatively new to me at the time, and since I have seen that they post progress pics of the dogs they train, so I am certain that she was trained to listen and not jump. And again...we don't have these issues at home. I am extremely disappointed at the fact that this is the first time we are hearing of any behavior problems AND being asked to get more training or, essentially, not bring her back. As much as I'd like to spend another mortgage payment to address behavioral issues we don't have at home, I am going to opt out. Canine has lost a bit of it's sparkle for me anyway, so now might just be the time to go. read more

This is by far the nicest group of people I've met, and facility is the nicest I've ever seen. Being a recent transplant, their welcome was warm---the entire process from my initial phone call, down to progress "report card" I received at the end of my pups first day visit; to the fast and easy checking in and checking out of my pooch. Everything was perfect, and couldn't have been any better! These people strive and take pleasure in what they do everyday and it shows on their faces and they just shine. You can hear the sincerity in their voices; they move with purpose, fast and enthusiastic to care and serve. You can tell they absolutely love and adore their jobs. Equally friendly, as they are professional. All five days in a row everything was perfect. This place is wonderful, is all I can say. A+++ for everyone there. It's no wonder Canine Republic have been awarded Best of Plano four years in a row! Going Five for Five this year without a doubt. They have my vote. :) Thank you to all the wonderful people at Canine Republic. Bless everyone there. JG with Buster of Plano, TX read more

I cannot recommend Canine Republic enough. Not only do they know your pup by name, they snuggle them upon arrival. I like the contactless drop off/pick up. It's quick and efficient, they store your CC info to make pick up fast. My little guy thinks he's a human, so he prefers to hang with staff most of the time but he always comes home wiped out. I can tell he truly enjoys his time there. Canine offers different services and add-ons as well. I always like scheduling his bath about 30 minutes before pick up so he comes out fresh as a daisy! It's evident the staff actually makes connections with their "guests." We've also used their boarding services, which again are superb. Tip: If you're planning to board for a major holiday, book way in advance. Spots get filled very quick and you are placed on a waiting list. We used CampBowWow for a long time & while they were also amazing, I am so happy to have Canine Republic when we moved to Frisco. Keep up the stellar service guys, you have a lifer here with Charlie. read more

Dogs are family at our house (and so many others I am sure). We drop our big boy Daly off with Ms Laura and the Canine Republic Team whenever we r headed out of town (weddings, vacations, trips). I cannot fully express how very much faith we have in Owner Ash and his team...a faith they have earned over several years of awesome service! Great people and great service. read more

My three dogs love coming here and that's all I really need! If they are happy then so am I.

This is the only dog daycare I trust with Sophie, even if she tends to spend her days begging the humans for attention and playtime instead of socializing with other dogs. I love being able to see the progress she has made through the facebook photos. She went from general fear and terror from another daycare experience to actually interacting with the other dogs. They handled her fear well from day one (put her in small dog) and she never wants to leave when it's time for her to go home. I board her every so often to make sure she's ok in case I need to travel, and she always gets a report card on her eating and socialization habits. With a digestively challenged goldendoodle, those reports are important when it comes to food changes. The staff has been super helpful and always show her love, and I'm pretty sure Sophie wants to apply for a front desk job. She is very prone to any digestively based dog illness or parasite, and I've never had an issue with CR in that regard. I was very, very sick the weekend before Thanksgiving, and tried to board her a couple of days so she wouldn't be bored because walks were off the table. Of course, they were booked, and had to decline, but they went above and beyond trying to help me out and find a spot for her. They also contacted her vet to get her shot records to take something off my plate. She loves trying to steal snacks from the snackbar offerings - her favorite are the venison bones. Canine Republic has the half-shank version, but I have to order the full-shank version. They also have a good assortment of no-hide chews and dried animal parts - which are good for getting her out the door...sometimes... read more

My favorite place for my dog (and my dogs favorite place by far)! I was initially nervous about dropping him for playcare (aka doggy daycare), but after meeting the staff and seeing their love for dogs (including mine), I was definitely more at ease. While my dog was initially shy at first hanging around the humans (as per usual...) he actually opened up and become friends with two other dogs and from there he was unstoppable to say the least. By the time I came to pick him up, he was snoring in the car before I even left the building complex! I definitely appreciate the fact that they have a small dog and big dog play section and check vaccinations for each dog as well. I know my dog is in good hands here, and I'm sure my dog can't wait for his next play care session! read more

My sweet, rambunctious Journey has been going there since she was four months and she absolutely loves it!! I'm not sure who loves the staff more, her or me! I love how they greet us, they know and they love us! It's comforting to know that my treasure of a pup is in good hands each time I drop her off. I haven't tried the boarding, but I'm sure it's just as great as the daycare. read more

Canine Republic - Daycare Valentine's Photo - Pet Groomers Near Me - Plano, Texas

My family first learned of Canine Republic last year when we moved from Atlanta to the DFW area. We got out here to find that we weren't going to close on Monday, like we had planned, and that we were going to have to spend a bit in a hotel. While we had gotten a hotel that was large-dog friendly, we quickly found that having our rottweiler in her crate in the room made it hard for the whole family to sleep, especially with another, rather noisy, dog next door. At the time, we called around and found that Canine Republic had an opening and could take her. We got her set up in one of their private programs and she LOVED it! They loved her and played with her and she came home really happy and excited. This year, we decided that we needed to go back home for Thanksgiving to see friends and family. We decided that, while we could take our dog with us, it would be unpleasant for both us and the families we were going to be visiting to have her along, so we scheduled boarding with Canine Republic. When we got there, Nymeria had a little trouble with the initial setup (particularly getting the name strip on), but once they got her into the back she was fine. We just picked her up and she was really bouncy and happy to see us, and they were telling us all about how everyone fought over who got to play with her. It was a great experience, just like our previous. I know that they say they serve the Plano/Frisco area, but we drive all the way from Anna (north of Melissa) to come here, even though there are closer places we could go. read more

I started taking my first dog (Harry), whom now lives in Mexico with his mom when this wonderful place was Bo's Bunkhouse and have been coming here with his cousin Motley every since! The Owner is amazing, he has never not spoken to me or my husband, always knows our dogs names, even ask about Harry. Very genuine, Truly loves what he does, everyone's dogs and his own. Great staff always keeps you updated, especially if you are looking for a last minute booking. There is no other place I would rather leave my Motley and trust that he will be cared for, loved and have so much fun that when he comes home he will sleep for 2 days! Thanks for all you do for Motley while he is away from me, makes it so much easier to leave his sweet face!! Joey ‍ read more

Nice clean facility, Staff is very pleasant, However, we boarded our 2 dogs for 2 nights staying together in a joint sweet. We specifically stated we didn't want to use their standard bed because we felt both our dogs would not be able to share it. So we were told is was definitely OK to bring either 2 soft beds or a large throw for them to share. Our preference. So we brought a large fluffy throw. I got it back folded exactly the way I had sent it. . It was NOT EVER used. So at least one or maybe both of my dogs slept on the concrete floors. Called and got a basic run around that they have their own throws they can use that are washable. Their washer may not have been able to wash that size Throw, (yeah, maybe, my Standard washer did just fine when I washed it before I sent it,). They could have at least given me a heads up when I asked BEFORE I arrived. I Could have definitely sent 2 beach towels, Bottom line - POOR COMMUNICATION. They will tell you anything to get your pet there because they think you won't know what really goes on. I would NOT choose to use them again. read more

My two dogs love this place. The staff are all dog owners and love their job. Their treatment of the dogs is reflected in their love of dogs. This is a fantastic place for dogs to get exercise playing on days when the weather is too hot or too cold or when it is raining. Their facilities are top notch, clean, modern, safe, and plenty large enough. I can rest knowing my two family members are in good hands at Canine Republic. The best of the best. read more

Ok. So first let me say I throughly loved this place. They were the only people besides a few friends that were allowed to watch my dog. Till recently. My last boarding reservation was in beginning of June for 2 night(Friday and a Saturday). Sunday, they called me just before they were ran my credit card, and had informed me my dog was great no issues. Flash forward to this week, when i am trying to make a new reservation, i find out that my dog got banned from being kenneled over night because he gets stressed out. I then received more information that "he had several accidents and tried to eat his way out of the cage." Here I am flabbergasted that not one person has mentioned this to me in a month. Did they think it was ok?? What he had injured himself, then do they call the parents? When I spoke to the manager, he completely blew me off and really had no care for my frustration all he could mention was that "they never got my deposit for his next reservation?" Obviously his only care is money and not the well being for the animals. After speaking to several former and past clients of CR. I've learned that communication is lacking. Mainly how the front of the house aka management only cares about getting as many animals as possible every weekend. They have no care for the dogs well being. They have been known to have multiple kennels stacked wall to wall for dogs because their normal suites are filled. read more

I love Canine Republic. They are very responsive. Teddy loves it there too. I had good experiences with boarding and day care.

Love the friendly attention from the staff dogs have enjoyed stay over visits. This summer they've been going for monthly grooming since we haven't been traveling they come back squeaky clean and frisky. read more

We are absolutely in love with Canine Republic! We had been using a regular boarding facility for years but were told our new chihuahua would not be able to stay with our other two dogs. We were in a state of panic since we had already booked a vacation to the UK and weren't prepared for the news that they would need to be separated. We went online in search of a new facility and found Canine Republic. We showed up for a trial day around noon and were told we would not be able to leave the dogs since the pack had already been formed. They explained this to us in a warm, caring and knowledgeable manner that made us feel they really cared about the safety and security of the dogs. We returned a few days later for our trial day and received two phone calls from Haley giving us feedback on their adjustment. In addition, we were able to view photos of our dogs on Facebook. They were clearly engaged and happy. I can't begin to tell you what a relief it was to know our dogs would be well looked after while we were gone! We checked Facebook each day of our vacation to see new pics of our babies...even my mother-in-law would ask if we had checked on the dogs yet! There aren't enough positive words to describe the facility or the Canine Republic team; they are simply FANTASTIC! They really take the time to learn the names and personalities of each dog and family. We will definitely be using them for daycare and boarding services in the future. Our trip was stress-free and our dogs have a new second home at Canine Republic. I wish we could give extra stars read more

Once again, Canine Republic does a wonderful job with our girls. We needed to get them out of the house for unexpected workmen and they quickly found room for them for day care. The girls became very excited when they realized where we were going and, upon arrival, they did not glance back even to tell me goodbye. I love that when it happens. I got a call midday that one of the girls had been injured in play. Rob did not avoid sharing the details of what happened and made no excuses. The same happened when I arrived the pick them up and found it to be a small scrape that was of no concern, Frankly, it meant that she had a rousing good time. We've been using Canine Republic for many years and have never had a bad experience. Our dogs love to go there and I'm sure what we see on their faces are smiles upon arrival and departure. So grateful to have a place that treats our pets with so much affection and caring. Thank you so much, CR! read more

Awesome place, super clean, super friendly staff. The rooms are huge, the televisions are a nice extra for my dogs.

Friendliest and most caring staff ever. Even if we haven't been in months, my dogs and I are always greeted by name when we walk in. You can tell the people here truly care about every pup! read more

Canine Republic is the BEST. My girl loves coming her for daycare. She is extremely high energy and this outing is one of the only ways to get her energy out. I can tell that the staff are true dog people and enjoy their jobs. I recently boarded Molly for the first time for a weekend while I was out of town. Canine took great care for her (per usual) and she came home happy.. and sleepy. Highly recommend bringing your pups here! read more

I took my dog for his first trip this week and we had a great experience! Huck has frequented other doggie daycares in various cities so I'm picky about where will be his "school home." I loved that they offered such nice indoor and outdoor areas and that they separate the dogs by size. Even better- no cages so huck never is copped up during his days away from home. They are willing to feed meals or provide meds if needed too. We bought a package which takes their normal daily rate (which is reasonable enough) and makes it even more affordable. We intend to keep up attendance 1-2 times a week! read more

Canine Republic - Huck's first day (they post lots of photos on their FB page which i love!) - Pet Groomers Near Me - Plano, Texas

boarded my mastiff and corgi here on a last minute two day stay. Typically because my mastiff is dog aggressive I expect staff to not respond to him well, however I noticed quite the opposite. Staff seemed to really love him when I brought him for his second stay and even comment on how not all dogs love to hangout with strangers (other dogs). Made me feel like they genuinely understood him and made him feel loved. On the contrary my corgi goes to day care when being boarded and loves every minute of it. Love the diverse and specific care my dogs receive and will continue to bring them here. read more

Best staff..! Our dog can't wait to come here everyday... if your looking to board your dog there is no better place.

So far SO impressed! There was a little mix up with both our dogs being booked in the same room but Laurie at the front desk handled it like an absolute pro. This was by far the best customer service experience I've ever experienced. We're crazy pet parents and we feel so much more relaxed than we ever have about leaving our fur babies while we travel. I'm excited about all the add-ons the pups will get and I hope they have a great stay :) read more

Tried daycare for the first time. My puppies had a great time. They were happy and exhausted when I picked them up. The gentleman who took them back was very patient with my female as she's very reluctant to go with strangers. After that I knew I'd picked the right place for daycare for my puppies. read more

I have been a customer at the McDermott location of Canine Republic since it started. The entire facility has been transformed since they took over Bo's Bunkhouse. It is spotlessly clean, its attendants are trained and always in with the dogs (outside and inside) and take special care to integrate new dogs into the pack. They are very attentive to ensuring all of the dogs are properly vaccinated and they are up to date. I've just started to bring my new husky to the facility and he loves going to "school." I can't recommend this location enough. All of the staff is just great! read more

We have been taking our new rescued puppy here since April. Our puppy loves going to Canine Republic and seeing Laura, Team, and other dogs to play with. Our active puppy is a bit bored with us during quarantine so CR is a great day for him to play/get some mental energy and fun! Everyone is really nice and our puppy loves visiting! Appreciate that our puppy is clean when we pick him up. CR also has a great website for reservations and able to text CR for dog pickup in advance. Appreciate that they have invested in good technology to make it easier for dog parents! Love that CR posts pictures (on CR's FB) during the day of our puppy! Fun to see him playing! read more

Great staff, nice facility. Very reasonably priced. They took care of my OLD great dane while we were on vacation for a week. I feel like she was in good hands. :) read more

This place has all 5 star reviews for a reason. They love your pet and it shows. My puppy is on the timid side and we tried daycare at a different place, to disastrous effect. My poor little girl came home super agitated, which is very unlike her. Now she loves going to daycare at Canine Republic! It's made such a difference in her temperament; she's much more open to meeting new people and dogs when we are out on our walks. I love this place so much I drive 40 minutes each way to take my dog here almost every weekday. It's that good! read more

I absolutely love this place! Very clean and all the employees are very friendly and professional. I have the upmost confidence that they will take good care of my buddy when I drop him off. My dog loves this place and always comes home exhausted so I know he got some good playtime in. I have always had very good experiences with this business from an operational standpoint as well. They are very organized and have never mixed up any of my appointments or requested care instructions whenever I have boarded my dog. Highly recommended! read more
