What recent reviews say

Kyle and the team consistently help owners understand how to train their dogs, moving beyond simple commands to tackle reactivity, anxiety, and service dog work. They adapt to each owner's needs and limitations, offer in-home sessions and group classes, and work with people on payment plans. Reviewers note the trainers are patient yet firm, explain training methods clearly, and bring their own dogs to sessions to teach distraction handling.

Dog Diggity Daycare & Boarding

4.2(316)✓ Google-verified

Dog Diggity offers convenient daycare with staff who earn genuine affection from returning dogs and owners who have stayed three years. Overnight boarding raises serious concerns: reviewers report 11-hour unattended periods, dogs returning with injuries, diarrhea, and vomiting, and management responses that feel inadequate. Daytime daycare appears solid, but boarding carries documented risks.

Triangle Pet Resort

Dogs arrive excited and leave exhausted from play. Regular guests report consistent care, daily photo updates, and staff who know their dogs by name, though a recent management transition has prompted some concern about staffing quality and pricing transparency. The facility maintains robust play groups for high-energy breeds and offers training referrals through their trainer, Yaz, with video follow-ups included. Long-term daycare is the strongest draw: dogs visibly settle in and build friendships. Boarding rates are mid-range for the area, and staff will adjust checkout timing for arrivals. One concern: a few reviewers mention overcrowding during busy visits, and kennel cough has surfaced in at least one dog. Ask about facility capacity on your scheduled day.
