    My 3 dogs had a blast this past Sunday when we came here! I did the private rental space for an hour and it's definitely worth the time and money!! By the time we came home my dogs were knocked out for the rest of the evening! Definitely a fun place for dogs and I will be coming back.

    My lab has been going 2 days a week to Frolick Dogs for almost 7 years now. Now that's he's 12 yrs old and having some issues with arthritis we've cut back to half days. Kim, Kevin and the rest of the team take good care of him and he loves them. He is so happy when I drop him off in the morning, can't wait for play time with the tennis balls! His Frolick time has kept him fit and healthy. People can't believe he's 12, he still has so much puppy in him. I've also taken advantage of their dog wash station. A little more work for me, but much less stressful for him than dropping him off at the groomers. I really can't say enough good things about Frolick!

    What a cool place! I took my dog here during their "open gym" hours which is every weekday from 5-7pm, for $15. I was pleasantly surprised to see that we were the only ones there, but according to the staff, even when they are busy there are, at most, 5 other dogs. They did a quick intake on us and then brought us back to the gym to show us the agility equipment, and then let us play around. I have never taken my dog to an agility gym before, but we loved our time here. They had hurdles, a seesaw, and a bridge, and it was a good amount of variety. We had a blast here and I'm sure we'll be back for more!

    Riley's 1st Birthday Party!

    We had our puppy's first birthday party here yesterday and EVERYONE (adults, kids and fur babies) had a blast! The space was big and open and allowed to dogs to really run around when they were not checking out the agility equipment. They also had clean up tools on hand in case of some dog accidents so the place stayed clean. It was also really nice how Frolick decorated the place with dog themed streamers, table cloths and even had balloons tied on the agility equipment. Rusty was great too! She was very helpful and patient in assisting and showing the kids how to get the dogs on the equipment and was taking lots of pictures. I was skeptical when she said she wanted to take a group picture because kids + dogs = chaotic pictures, but she did it! We can't wait to see the pictures! I highly recommend this place if you are thinking of hosting something for your fur babies. Our guests had a great time - adults loved it, kids kept talking about how much fun they had and all the dogs slept in! I think they'll be tired until Monday. Frolick also allows you to bring your own food and drinks (including alcohol) and any other things you'd want to bring to your event. They did provide non-alcoholic drinks for all the guests and party treats for the fur babies. The room was set up in a way that the tables for food and drinks were segregated from all the dog area. If you order dog cake and/or puppy ice cream from Dogma Dog Bakery in Shirlington, Frolick will also pick it up for you! Thanks, Frolick! Hoping to be able to come back for Agility class.

    Extremely dirty and run down indoor gym.

    After reading the overwhelmingly positive reviews, I was considering Frolick for dog training. I decided to check out the facility today and use the indoor gym. Unfortunately, after my experience we won't be going here for training or for any of their other services. I will caveat, the gentleman that helped get my dog and I signed in, showed us the equipment, etc. was friendly. We had the indoor gym to ourselves which was nice, but my overall experience and impression of Frolick Dogs was negative because I found the facility to be absolutely filthy dirty. I am a dog owner and fully understand our beloved furbabes can be messy. However, the indoor gym appeared to not have been swept in years. My dog kept getting fur from the ground on him. I wouldn't let him drink from the bowl of water that was set out because I simply didn't trust the bowl or water was even clean. Looking around the gym it was evident the gym was extremely dirty and appeared very run down. The gym seemed so dirty to me I was genuinely concerned about my dogs health if I were to leave him here for training. I am a huge supporter of local business and I hate to leave such a negative review, but it's also important to be honest about my experience.

    Kevin with Dolly.
    Amy B.

    I would give Kevin and Kim 10 stars if I could! We enrolled our 8-month-old Bernedoodle puppy, Dolly, in Kevin's 3-week day care/training program in April of 2019. It was remarkable to see the complete transformation of Dolly during her time in training. Prior to Kevin's training, she would jump on guests and pull on walks. Now, we have had multiple dog owners stop to comment on how WELL behaved she is. Some have said they are shocked that she is still a puppy. This would have been unthinkable just two months ago. We also want to commend the support staff at Frolick for taking such good care of Dolly. She LOVED going to Frolick, and it put our minds at ease to know that she was in such good hands. I realize that it is a significant financial investment to commit to the three-week program. I can only speak for our experience, but it was money well spent, and now we have a foundation of solid training to last for years ahead. Thanks Kevin and Kim!

    Look at that happy face! Libby loves it!

    We've been going to Frolick for use of the gym, daycare, and agility classes for awhile now, and I can't count the number of times my husband or I have said some iteration of "Frolick is just the best". Update about the agility classes: When you first look at an agility course, it's kind of overwhelming, but these classes are amazing. Sherri is a fantastic trainer and has a way of breaking each section down into manageable parts as you learn. The classes are kept small, 6 dogs max, which allows everyone to learn from each other as well as get individual suggestions from Sherri.

After the terrible groom my partner was told to come back for a they would fix it for free. She scheduled the appointment pointing out that she wanted the complimentary service (see photo) and when I picked her up they told me it was roughly $125. I told them I had a free service and they saw that in the system but that's not what they did. I overheard the lady behind the counter whisper that we were willing to pay the difference even though it is their fault . At that point I was unwilling to pay but my partner was at work and had already paid the entire amount online so that I did not have to have any issues. They reached out to the owner and we were assured that she would reach out to us and fix it. My partner reached out to Jodi (the owner) and she did not respond. This was in February and it is now May. I waited to post this in hope that I wouldn't have to because they would make it right. I understand that the groomer needs to be paid because the work was completed but their mistake shouldn't have been my problem. Oh I forgot to mention how we came about the complimentary service. The original cut was HORRENDOUS (see photo) my partner wrote a review about it and they offered us a complimentary bath and tidy to take it down. She agreed and removed the review(shady). All I want is my partner's money back. This review did not need to be posted but I hate that fact that we were taken advantage of by this business.

We had such a horrible experience and feel a tremendous amount of guilt for trusting that they would take care of our cat. After a short stay, our healthy 1-year old cat was returned to us lethargic and clearly traumatized, with serious episodes of vomiting and diarrhea that ended up in a $2,500 vet hospital stay. A quick business trip turned into an ungodly expense. We were promised an update during his stay as well as a "Pawgresss Report" when we picked him up, but received neither, likely because he wasn't adjusting well and it was easier for them to keep that from us. They didn't even do a basic medical check when we dropped him off, which again was supposed to happen according to their website. I reached out to the hotel manager, Arden, once he was admitted to the vet hospital two days after his stay, and described our experience. She "seemed" very sympathetic and assured me that an incident report would be filed and that someone would get back to me ASAP. Well, here it is 4 days later and I still haven't heard from anyone; I would have thought that they would want, at the very least, an update on his diagnosis/condition to prevent an outbreak at their facility. Nope. Clearly, what they say and what they actually do are at odds. Don't be like me and get caught up in the flowery language used on their website to describe their facility and services; it's all disingenuous, if not patently false. I fear our poor cat will never get over the trauma of his visit at the PetsHotel on Richmond Highway in Alexandria, Virginia

Her finished groom was OUTSTANDING, and everyone in The Dog Park was friendly and outgoing (unlike many groomers here in town).

I will not return and have found a new groomer.
