Our dog has been boarded there several times and this last time they went above and beyond my expectations. They treated our dog like she was one of their own, went out of their way to make her feel comfortable and not miss home so much. The ENTIRE staff are so great and all deserve a top notch recommendation. The owner Jan, went above and beyond to make our girls stay a happy one. I would HIGHLY recommend this place for daycare/boarding/training, they are the best you will find. Great job K9 Tailshakers, you outdid yourselves. Thank you from the bottom of our heart and Emmie's too!!!! We are so grateful.

She was able to get all the mats out, trimmed him up, and days later he is still as soft as can be. Michelle was kind, knowledgeable, and did a great job with my nervous cat and it really couldn't have gone smoother. I highly recommend K9 Lovers!

While every aspect of the program was fantastic, two things really stood out. First, the team genuinely cares about every dog--it's clear in everything they do. Second, this wasn't just a training experience for our puppy; it was a learning experience for us as owners, too. As first-time puppy owners, they gave us the skills and confidence we needed, and the progress our puppy made was incredible. We can now take him places and truly enjoy the experience. We initially signed up for six weeks but extended it by three more because of how much progress he was making--and because we knew the impact would be long-lasting. We're even planning to bring him back this summer for additional off-leash training (and because we're pretty sure he misses it!). I can't say enough positive things about the facilities, the staff, and the level of care they provide. They're always available to answer questions and show a genuine investment in each dog's success. It's also such a relief to have found a place we trust for boarding and grooming. Thank you, Found, for everything--you've truly changed our lives and our puppy's life!!

I have known Howard, Marilyn and John for over 30 years! John is training my dachsund puppy "Otto"…read moreright now. This is the third dachsund he has trained for us. I mention dachshund because they are notoriously stubborn and can be very difficult to train. From the first day, all my dogs were magically somehow clued in and listening to John. He truly has an other worldly connection with dogs. I couldn't get my dog to do anything and John had them able to do "sit", "Stay", "come" and "heel" on the first day. He then taught me how to handle my dog and get them to pay attention. The best part is the dogs are so much happier. It's as if they feel someone is communicating with them, and they are not alone. It's incredible to watch and my dogs remembered everything they learned their whole lives. John is the nicest person. He deeply loves and respects dogs and has made his life in the service of training them. It's a worthwhile investment. I actually tried a less expensive option as I am retired now but it was nothing like "Good Dog" and my dog was fearful and cowering. I immediately realized that I was so lucky to know this team and how worthy the investment in my dog is.

After about 9 months of being with Zen dogs, I think it's about time that I share the love. This…read moredaycare is the best best thing I could've asked for for my 1.5 year old dog Enoki! I can tell through her expressions in all of the photos shared by the Zen Dogs team and her reactions when I drop her off every day (I go 5 days/week) that she adores being there. She comes home super tuckered out and has developed fantastic social skills with all dogs large and small. I also greatly appreciate how much all of the staff truly care and love all of the dogs. Around when I first got Eno, she suffered from a pelvic fracture and I informed the daycare staff of this injury when we first joined. During one of my earlier training sessions with her and a staff member 1:1, I found out that he had been giving her some PT stretches and massages throughout the day whenever she approaches him. He demonstrated them to me so that I could also perform them at home to improve her mobility and she seemed completely unfazed! Along with this, I was able to walk through their rest area and see for myself the kinds of kennels the dogs stay in during their naps. I prefer the concept of rotations of play and rest so that the dogs don't get overwhelmed (this was one of my reasons for choosing Zen), but, as an owner, thinking of your dog in confinement can come with some nerves. All my worries vanished when I saw the kennels: they were spacious, cushioned and I even found out that they will give dogs antlers or toys to keep themselves occupied during down time depending on what they prefer. These are the kinds of things that I feel other daycares would advertise and charge extra for; but, at Zen, they treat the dogs well because they care as much as we do. Love love love this place! I never want to move for as long as she lives just because I can't bear the idea of moving her out of this daycare hahaha. Thank you all so much from me and Eno!

They host open houses a few times a year for you to go in and see the facility with fun games and events. They host various activities and specialty pictures for the dogs through the year.

I've moved and live a little further but I will forever bring my dog to lap of luxury.
