Gabriella H.: I have got a little overexcited pup who loves to jump and play. She loved Waggs n Whiskers, and I knew she was in good hands. The place is nice, clean, and well-organized with lots of activities for the dogs.

Kari R.: I absolutely love this place!! While I’m at work, my sweet girl is playing hard and being loved on all day so that I never have to worry. The taxi service is also wonderfully convenient creating more time in my day. Best service and care we have ever had for our little pup!
Julie P.: Our pup, Pete, loves Diana and Wags n’ Whiskers. He cries at the door on days he doesn’t get to go. He likes all there is to do there and the socialization with other dogs is exactly what he loves and needs along with an extremely caring staff.
Christy W.: Our puppy loves his play dates here. The staff is professional and fun. Clean facility.
Katharine W.: Could not ask for a better place to send my dog. The staff is as phenomenal as the facility is beautiful. Even better my dog loves it.
Theresa S.: My finicky furry girl loves going to Waggs N’ Whiskers. Diana & Melissa are so patient with Malla and Malla has a fun time playing with all the other dogs. Malla is also learning good manners from Melissa & Diana. The facility is very nice, clean, and safe. Highly recommend this place
Leigha D.: My one-year-old, 100lbs pup has an absolute blast each and every time he comes for daycare, which is multiple times a week. Waggs n’ Whiskers opens early to accommodate those that work at the crack of dawn like me, provides a fun, stimulating environment for dogs of all ages and sizes to play safely, and even has a report ready for you on how your furry friend’s day was at pick-up. The building is very well-kept and maintained and above all else, Diana and Melissa treat their clients like family
Susie M.: Our pup comes home after her playtime happy and tired. She gets so excited to go play with her furry friends Diana and Melissa. Wonderful facility. So happy we found it!
Sally G.: I absolutely recommend this facility.
It’s VERY clean and spacious for the pups!
The staff is incredibly caring, informative, respectful, and more than anything they care about my Lil pup.
The staff and owners make you as a customer feel heard and ask questions if needed.
Many accommodations can be made for your animal, and the pay is more than accommodating!
I’m a college student and Waggs N’ Whiskers pricing has been a god-sent.
Thank you, Waggs N’ Whiskers, for taking care of me and my pup!
Lisa S.: Our 9-month-old puppy loves his play days at Waggs n’ Whiskers! He’s continued coming once or twice a week during the Stay-at-Home in order to socialize. It’s been a lifesaver for my husband and me working from home since he has so much energy. Diana and Melissa take great care of all the dogs. Zion always returns home a happy and tired dog!
