This place has been absolutely amazing for my dog Bosco and for me as an owner. Everyone was incredibly kind and patient, and Bosco's made incredible progress in learning to be leash trained, learning when playtime is over, and recall. I've done group training, boarding, daycare, and day training, and all of the services have been awesome. The report cards are super detailed and I loves seeing all the photos they send!

Stephanie did amazing with my pups. She brought our dogs to have their pictures taken with us for our wedding. She did great handling my wild child and we got some awesome photos. She sent us pictures of them when they were heading to and from the venue.

We booked services with Pup Pup and Away to take care of our dog (who was our ring bearer) during our wedding ceremony. I can’t say enough amazing things about our dog handler, Stephanie! She was punctual, professional, gentle, and so friendly. Communication was great from start to finish. She took such wonderful care of our dog before and after the ceremony so she could be part of our day without us having to worry about a thing. It was so nice knowing she was safe and well taken care of, it meant the world to us. She even helped get our pups attention to get these amazing pictures! The best part was we didn’t have to bother any of our guests to take care of her, so they could all enjoy the day! Thank you Stephanie!!

Pup Pup & Away has truly been a game-changer for my dog, Oenomaus, and me. He’s been attending their TAILored Play Program for about 8 months now (as of Oct 25). Oenomaus can be a bit of a handful (he’s got big fire energy and some frustration-based reactivity to dogs), but the staff here have met him exactly where he’s at - with patience, kindness, and expertise. He gets to socialize safely with dogs that match his vibe, and the staff treats him like one of their own. He always comes home happy and tired. Their report cards, complete with adorable photos and videos, absolutely make my day. I love that they also offer ongoing events, from Dog Prom to canine CPR and massage workshops to agility lessons and "Reactive Rover" classes — it’s clear how much they care about creating a fun, inclusive community for dogs and their people. We've also participated in 1-on-1 training to help address leash pulling and reactivity, and have made so much progress! I also admire Stephanie Garza (owner and certified dog trainer/behaviorist/nutritionist) and staff for their commitment to support local dog rescues. There are always a few rescue dogs "living" and/or getting training at Pup Pup, to help increase the odds of finding them a forever home. Pup Pup also supports fundraising efforts, including hosting Jordan's Way earlier this year which helped raise needed funds for San Antonio's Rosco's Rescue. I trust Pup Pup & Away completely, and Oenomaus would give them 10/10 tail wags if he could. 🐾💚

Pup Pup & Away is a fantastic daycare, boarding and training facility! We took our golden retriever to them since she was a puppy for puppy class, daycare and boarding. PPA became her second home and family in San Antonio! We loved the thoughtful daily report card with lots of pictures, which helped us feel included in her daycare/boarding day. She loved it so much and would come home from daycare thoroughly tired. Sadly, we have moved out of the city, but I would recommend PPA to anyone!
