Our boy Rex loves Bow Wow Lounge and so do we! Hilary, Brie, Liv, and all the amazing handlers at Bow Wow make this place exceptional. Rex does daycare and boarding at Bow Wow fairly regularly and we have never had a single negative experience. Communication is spot on, professional, and I know that Rex is in good hands.
My dog Elliott loves coming here. He always has a blast in daycare with his human friends and his dog friends. I appreciate the honesty and realistic updates with the puppy postcards. The groomer Tamara is also great, and always leaves him smelling and looking FRESH!!! The lobby is so cute and stylish! Plus they always have the newest toys and treats from our favorite brands.
We're so glad that Bow Wow is nearby for our big boy, Tank. He's a little anxious and has some medical needs, but we have absolute peace of mind leaving him in the capable (and fun) hands of the Bow Wow staff. He always has a great time at daycare or boarding and he really loves the staff. Clean and intentionally facilities and friendly and very capable staff. (They offer photo sessions throughout the year- one attached).
Bow Wow is my dog Merlin’s favorite place on the planet! He gets so excited when he senses we’re going to “school” and he’s been coming in for over a year now. Rachel and Hillary are the kindest and always very welcoming when we walk in the door. All of the staff are exceptional and Merl loves getting attention from them in addition to being able to run around and play with other pups. I do the postcard add-on and they bring me so much joy to see pics of him playing and the cute write up from his perspective! I also love the seasonal add-on’s like the pics with Santa or Valentines magnet. Everything is always crafted with love and care. Really can’t praise this place enough. Thank you Bow Wow!
Great place to let your dog socialize and give you peace of mind. I absolutely love the staff at Bow Wow Lounge. I have seen marked improvement in my dog's socializing and overall temperament when he attends. I enjoy knowing he's getting his doggy time in a safe and positive environment.
