This place has been amazing for my dog Dot. Daycare, boarding, and especially training. Kailee is an outstanding trainer who’s worked with Dot since she was a puppy and helped me train the perfect dog. I rely on her heavily, and she’s the main reason I continue coming here. The rest of the staff is also very knowledgeable and clearly cares about the dogs. Couldn’t recommend them more.

Intro: I have waited some time to leave a review since I prefer multiple experiences to validate my overall interactions. This is my first experience with dog training, boarding, and day camp. My previous dog preferred to be the only dog and was trained by the shelter I adopted her from. I say all of that to say when I was fostering a new dog I went into this experience with zero expectations. I had only had her about two months and had not attempted to see her level of unleashed socialization. Training: No Leash Needed was very clinical and transparent about my options, which I very much appreciated. They suggested first a training evaluation, since my priority was her receiving 1-1 training and eventually being able to be boarded (even if only solitary which would have to be at another location). Her evaluation for training showed she was eligible and they suggested 3 weeks. I went forward with the training and asked as far as her ability to do play group or interactions with other dogs for them to introduce those evaluations as they saw fit. I had as much expectation that she would be eligible for group play as that she would not be eligible based on her high activity level and physical play style. The training was truly amazing. Kailee absolutely delivered every promise she set and walking her went from pure frustration and aggressive pulling to slack leash right by my side. Even when not training or walking her whole personality changed. She really loved learning and came home happy everyday for 3 weeks, but I know she was not an easy pupil for Kailee (which shows her skill and commitment). Day Camp: During the training they dog tested her and said she did well. I asked for full transparency and they said while she was a very physical player, she was well liked among the play group. After watching the video feed I did see her in time out, and did worry about how much correction she seemed to need. I am no dog professional, so I decided to leave it to the staff to make sure she was being a respectful play grouper. Over the last few months she seems to have been a bit of more gentler player, but she does rough house with other dogs with her play style and I’m told all parties are consensual and enjoying the exercise. Boarding: My dog was previously in a shelter, so I knew she was crate trained. The first few boardings seem to stress her a bit and so during the day in play group she required more breaks. But now that I have boarded her a few times she seems to have gotten more accustomed and knows I am not abandoning her. I have only boarded her 3 times so far, so after several more times I’ll feel more certain in her expected behavior/experience. Overall: At this point I believe No Leash Needed Hampton is operating effectively and respectfully. Dogs, and especially large groups of dogs are a very unpredictable clientele to work with. I have seen that the staff and leadership do try to follow a consistent protocol while also being fair to each dog. I will continue to use them until anything changes, which could be my dog’s behavior or their customer service. So far though smooth sailing 👍.

We take our mini Bernedoodle puppy to NLN about once a week. He absolutely loves it. They are courteous, professional, and love the dogs. Our boy always comes home exhausted, and we all know, a tired dog, is a good dog. In addition, we signed up our pup for the two-week, training, boot camp. Kailey is an amazing trainer.

I LOVE No Leash Needed. My dog Frankie does too! He literally leaps out of the car when we arrive at their facility. When I pick him up I am often told something cute he did or who his best friend was that day. I have also boarded Frankie at the facility. I love it because he gets to be in daycamp all day. He also knows the staff and is comfortable with them. I used Kaylee for training. She was amazing. She knows her stuff! They often have fun themed pictures weekly. It costs a little extra for the photos but totally worth it!

I am genuinely really saddened by how this staff treated an occurrence today. We occasionally take our 1 1/2 yr old corgi to daycare when we want him to play for a day. We picked him up today and everything seemed normal, but when we got home, we noticed a gash running down his ear and lots of blood. We didn’t notice before since he was lying down on the way home, but once we got home, he kept rubbing his head on the floor in a lot of discomfort. We called the location and apparently it was reported that another dog had bit his ear during the day, and no one thought to even mention this to us. Apparently it was enough of a concern to take down in notes, but we were left to figure this out ourselves. I don’t know if “being supervised” all day means anything, when the supervision is this careless. The claims of animals receiving attention and care fell pretty flat today and rest assured, he’s not coming for daycare after this. I am so disappointed in this location and staff and so sad for my dog.
