I love this place! The Pack is a cool spot for dogs and dog lovers. The space is used as a doggy day care but you can also bring your dog and hang out. Even if you don't have a dog, you can come to chill with doggos and it's not weird at all. There is a large indoor gated area and an outdoor gated area with some seating. There is also an area where dogs aren't allowed with a bar, food, and a sort of gift shop. To bring your dog here, they must be spayed/neutered and up-to-date on vaccinations. You have to pay to bring your dog here and there are punchcards or monthly memberships available. There are staff on duty at all times to help with dog crowd control and keep the chaos to a minimum. I come here a lot and sometimes it's super chill and quiet and other times the dogs are all rowdy and loud. They also do special events like trivia, comedians, and foam parties for the dogs! read more

We mostly enjoyed this place, but be very careful about which staff you leave your dog with. Not all employees understand dog behavior, and some clearly do not bother to read a dog's profile. My dog, Mojo, loved coming here, and I liked the restaurant. He can be challenging, but the staff usually contacted me and I handled him without issue. On our last visit, however, the staff claimed he was stressed and tried to calm him by petting him--even though his profile explicitly states he does not tolerate being touched by strangers. If a dog growls and moves away, continuing to pet him is irresponsible.I took Mojo home. The next morning, I received a voicemail saying he was banned. After many positive visits, one encounter with staff who wouldn't adapt to his needs resulted in him being permanently excluded. That's not acceptable. read more

I love this place. So much room, nice employees and lots of dogs. they also do a bunch events which is cool but they never have a Shar Pei day! haha prolly not lots of them! Maybe you could have an obsure breed day? haha LOVE THE PACK read more

I used the last of my passes yesterday and we lasted less than 10 minutes. Another dog, Howie, kept stalking my dog aggressively and jumping and nipping at her unprovoked. The kennel attendant did nothing. I had to keep putting my body between my dog and the other dog to try and deescalate the situation until after a handful of times I decided to leave as my pass money lost is better than a vet bill. I watched several dogs pee on the floor and the attendant didn't pick up most of them. They offered to put another credit on my account but I said don't bother as I live an hour away and I won't be back. read more

A great place to burn off energy! Pretty bare bones, but the dogs don't seem to mind. The staff does a great job of keeping an eye on everything. Very clean facilities! read more

The Pack Indoor Dog Park - Helpful and friendly staff. Very clean. Great place to burn off some energy when the weather is too cold for tiny feet! - Dog Parks Near Me - Comstock Park, Michigan

This review might be a little different than the others here, as I went to The Pack as a non dog owner. Our neighbors take their two dogs there and asked if Nate and I wanted to join one day. We both love dogs and dog watching, so of course we said yes! I'd heard of this place when they first opened and thought the concept was interesting - an indoor/outdoor dog park with a bar and food. When we arrived, our neighbors checked in their two dogs and Nate and I looked around. The indoor space is pretty big and the bar area is nice. We got a couple drinks at the bar and went into the inside area to watch the dogs playing - there were quite a few dogs there on a Sunday afternoon, so we got to pet lots of cute pups. They have staff members who will come over and break up groups of dogs if things get too rowdy. I noticed that most of the dog owners were pretty hands off but most of the dogs were getting along well. There are tennis balls to throw and water bowls for the dogs. Employees are quick to clean up spilled drinks (holding an open container around a lot of dogs running around means you may spill some of your drink) and any poop or pee. The outside area is pretty small, with some turf and a patio area with pea gravel. The turf area smelled terrible as I assume it's full of pee and the trash can for poop bags seemed full. It was a sunny day so a lot of people were out there, but I found it really unpleasant. Inside was great, it didn't smell at all. The bar is stocked and you can get cocktails, draft beer, seltzers, wine, and non-alcoholic drinks. The food menu includes fried bar food snacks, flatbreads, pizza, and subs. Membership to The Pack is required for people visiting with dogs - they have a 5 visit punch card for $34 or a monthly or annual unlimited visit membership. They don't have a single day visit option, which I thought was a little inconvenient. They also do doggie daycare - full day or half day. People without dogs like us can visit for free anytime! And as their website says, it's not weird. read more

Today was my first time bringing my 1.5 year old dog here. We live nearby and the weather has been poor all week. I registered her online and the facility obtained her vaccination record from my veterinary office, which was very convenient that I did not need to upload that information. I purchased a 5-pack of visits for $40 to test it out. The facility is clean and the indoor area is fairly large. There were a lot of dogs there for daycare since I arrived around 12pm. There were about 4 staff members working and rotating who was monitoring the dogs in different areas. There is an outdoor area that I could imagine getting crowded, but in general it provided a good amount of space. My dog was very shy and timid at first but she did warm up over time. The only downside for me was that I had to stay nearby my dog the entire time; the staff mentioned it could be "50/50" in terms of staying near your dog. I didn't mind it so much this time since it was my dog's first time and I wanted to help her get acclimated, but I was also hoping to sit nearby at a table and watch her from afar while I got some work done. I can understand paying attention to your dog in case of accidents or if play gets too rough, but it felt like I had to watch her more closely than if she was at any other dog park. I plan to use all 5 of my visits on my pass, and it will come in handy in the winter! read more

They don't always pay attention to the dogs. They need to get rid of the balls. They just cause problems. The employees need to interact more with the dogs. After 2 years my dog no longer goes there because of the employees. read more

Experienced and caring staff. Attention paid to potentially unruly dogs with no issues left unresolved. A great diversity in dog types with a lot of playful exercise possible. We stop in every week. read more

Had a bad experience with lack of communication of what the "small gated area" is used for. Staff need to work on communicating any issues/concerns or anything related to the dog to their owners, and not just write it down as a note. read more

I take my dogs here every week. The park is clean, temperature controlled, and quiet (or as quiet as it can be). The tennis balls are a great treat for my furry friends while the bar is my favorite feature. Both of my dogs are nervous and have different ways of showing it. The staff does a great job distracting Mr. Miller and watching that my Lucy doesn't get squished. Their ears perk right up when they hear we are going to the park. read more

The Pack Indoor Dog Park - Dog Parks Near Me - Comstock Park, Michigan

I brought my dog to The Pack today in an attempt to avoid the muddy dog park. Quick take away of this review: nice option in the winter but won't return regularly. The indoor play space is quite small. I imagined it might be an open warehouse sized space but it isn't. The indoor flooring is a little slick but it allows for easy waste clean-up. There are a couple employees there watching over daycare dogs that also tend to cleaning up after your dogs and monitor playing to ensure rough-housing doesn't escalate. This is really the only advantage over a normal outside dog park. Humans who understand how to watch for agressive behavior. The outdoor area is very small, maybe a third of the size of a tennis court with an astroturf lawn. So it's not really a feasible play area. The more that I think about it, I'm not sure if I would choose The Pack as a daycare option due to new dogs being rotated into the playgroups daily (via walk-in park dogs accompanied by owners). A typical daycare will do a temperament assessment and usually has a better pulse on the dogs who become regulars. For me, this is an alternative to an outside park until I fence in my yard. read more

The layout of the park doesn't make sense - you have to go through several gated areas that are shared, and they insist on one dog at a time in case a dog is "leash reactive." If your dog is leash reactive, you shouldn't be coming to this kind of place. I planned on getting dinner and a drink here but due to this ridiculous policy and a line of incoming dogs, I was trapped in the outdoor area for an extended period of time. The play area is sooo small and smelly. This place is likely popular due to it being the only indoor dog park in the area. If you've been to any other park with a comparable concept, you'll see this is one of the worst parks. I won't be back and would not recommend. read more

Dog-owner here using their Dog Park services. They also have a bar/food service as well as doggy daycare here. I've taken my 9-month old bernedoodle to The Pack a couple now because she's had so much fun each time! I noticed taking her on weekdays before 5-6 pm was bit more chill since theres mostly the daycare dogs. My high-energy pup got along with all the regulars though! There's plenty of staff supervising the pups and isolating any doggos for a few minutes if they get barky or play too rough. The staff are very professional and very familiar with all the regular dogs. They also will match up dogs based on personality if some dogs are shy or whatever. Never seen any dogs get aggressive with any visitors or other dogs since I've been there. Open to anyone who doesn't have a dog too. The fenced outdoor area is very spacious and on hot days they make a little kiddy pool for the dogs to splash in! read more

This place is awesome! They hosted a party to honor Pleasant Hearts Pet Food Pantry and everybody that brought an item for the pantry was entered into a drawing for a gift card. There are indoor and outdoor areas for the dogs to mingle which is fully fenced in with a safe gate setup to prevent any escapes. They serve food- with vegan options! - as well as alcoholic beverages. The staff, especially Rachel one of the owners, was very friendly and welcoming. If you want to go and get something to eat and drink and just watch the dogs charging around there is no entry fee. Check it out to get your dog-watching fix!!, read more

Nova and I love coming here, she always has lots of fun. Having the staff around to help monitor is great and they are all so kind. The indoor and outdoor spaces are clean and I like that Nova doesn't get dirty. We now have the membership so we come a couple times a week; nova plays and I grab a drink. Highly recommend. read more

We LOVE the pack! The facility is beautiful (and so clean), the food and drinks are great, and we love the staff. Our dog Annie has done day care a few times and we've taken her to run around and hang out often. She loves playing with the other dogs and always comes home sleepy and happy She doesn't do great in the heat, so I am very thankful for an air conditioned option this summer. We have the year membership and would defiantly recommend, but they also have punch cards and monthly passes for those not looking to commit to the year. read more

The Pack Indoor Dog Park - a dog sitting on a green mat - Dog Parks Near Me - Comstock Park, Michigan

Love this place. When I first heard the idea of an indoor dog park I wasn't so sure...tried it out and my dog loves it and it's a great way to get his energy out especially in the winter months. The ambience is friendly and a way to chat with other dog lovers. There are nice events e.g. Halloween, trivia nights, Christmas/Santa. Also we have used the Pack for day care and they send pictures and updates about how the day went! There is no overnight dog watching but we use the Pack for the daytime daycare when we need it. I didn't know at first that the main bartender is actually part of the family owned business. They split all tips equally between people working (including people outside with the dogs). Indoor Full bar and bar food (french fries, chicken fingers, quesadillas, pizza and sandwiches). The food and drink area is a "no dog" area so if you have a human guess with you who doesn't want dogs jumping on them etc they can sit in the bar area and not worry about that. Drinks are welcome back with the dogs, the food you can eat in the bar area. Overall we go on a regular basis. One of my dog's favorite words is "the pack" and he runs to the back door to get in the car. I could list the "cons" but there are enough pros ... I don't know why there are some 1 star ratings on here as the reasons people write don't make sense e.g. there weren't other small dogs one day someone went...and another person thinking it was too small of a play area which makes little to no sense...this is the first place like this in West Michigan. - Dan and Hash :-) read more

I accidentally left 4 stars! I'm not sure why! I like to right what is wrong. This place was so much fun!!

This place is awesome. The staff are super friendly and on top of it. The place is spotless and the bar is the best part. Of course all dogs don't get along so that happens once in awhile. Go check this place out! Highly recommend. read more

I went to the Pack twice. The first time was a great experience. I was impressed how employees were monitoring the play area. My dog had a great time. The second time I went my dog got kicked out. His behavior hadn't changed. A few dogs placed their paws on him and he growled to tell them to leave him alone. Because of this, I followed him around to make sure he was doing okay. He does have some anxiety about being in the car and can be timid. However, immediately when I walked through the gate, an employee started asking me questions. She asked me if he was socialized as a puppy (yes he has). Then she proceeded to follow me around the dog park, asking me more questions - does my family have dogs (yes they do) and how he is with them (he's great). I was getting more and more irritated as she continued to do this. I am my dog's "person" and so he was also feeding off my energy. After five minutes, this same lady asked us to leave. He regularly goes to doggy daycare and has gotten glowing reviews. There are two places where we frequent and he excels at both places. I completely understand that you can't have a dog fight. However, I feel like you need to understand basic dog behavior. He gives a little growl to tell other dogs to leave him alone. When he gets humped or another dog puts a paw on him, he tells them no. If another dog takes his ball, he's going to tell them no. I'm not looking for an apology or anything, I just want this out there for others to see. read more

What a great place! The owners were wonderful, a family owned joint that welcomed us with a couple of delicious bloody Mary's and we got to watch our dogs meet the locals! I wish that the outside was a little bit more spacious but hey it's the Midwest... with the cold seasons taking up most of the year the investment in a big indoor space is crucial! The staff was also very kind and did a good job watching our 2 huskies which can be a handful at times. 5 stars guys! We will be back and look forward to the success of this new business. read more

My pup Arwen and I love the staff at The Pack! They treat us with care and respect. The bar and food are also a great addition to our visits! Thanks so much for offering a fun and safe place for my pup! read more

Staff was very nice and it was a great adventure for a very cold Michigan winter day but there were no other small dogs for my dog to play with. read more

We love The Pack! There is literally no other place like it but - even if there were - it's still amazing. Our Bernedoodle, Annie, is an annual member and we find ourselves going to the Pack 2 or 3 times a week. There are usually plenty of other dogs to play with and the staff are quick to jump in and play to when there are brief lulls in attendance. Annie goes nuts when we pull into the parking lot and always sleeps well when we go home. The full bar and great pizza are icing on the cake! read more

This place is my new favorite hang out....sure, my dog loves it too. Everyone who works there is so nice and patient. They have all been well trained on what to do in the event of any dog tension. They have a bar and food area for humans and I haven't had anything there that wasn't amazing! Reasonable prices and great atmosphere. Customer for LIFE! read more

This place is great! Clean environment, friendly staff that are well trained with dogs. The staff interact and watch the dogs which is unlike any other dog park I have been too. They also serve food and drinks, which is an added bonus. Highly recommended!!! read more

My dog loves this place! The staff is attentive to all of the dogs and makes sure everyone is safe and happy. i love coming after work and having a beer while my dog plays. I also love that everyone has to show that their dog has had its shots. It always made me nervous for my dog to drink out of the public water bowls at the traditional dog parks but I feel she is safer at ThePack. The prices are reasonable and they even give 6 visits for $30 at first just to make sure your dog will like it before you commit. Come on and you AND your dog(s) will make some new friends! read more

Riva absolutely loves the Pack. They take great care of our pup and the place is super clean!
