Amazing. I love the little updates and pictures I get of my baby at day care!!
I love hip hounds and so does my husky! He comes home tired from all the playtime with the other furbabies. Plus, I love that I can watch him on the cam. That gives me a lot of reassurance that he’s in good hands :) We are definitely returning customers who come for boarding.
This was our first time boarding our dogs at Hip Hounds and we are definitely coming back! The communication was amazing, I felt extremely comforted and without worry during my trip. I am so thankful for ya'll and will definitely recommend you and be back in the future!
We've been sending our dog Brie there since we got her in 2017. Wonderful people and a wonderful place for our pup.
Michael was exceptional at making me feel comfortable leaving my Rattie in their care. I love the webcams and the fact that he was not placed in a kennel for the whole time. He played with the other dogs and was truly happier when I picked him up than when I dropped him off!
Michael and the friendly, caring staff at Hip Hounds have created an exceptional daycare and boarding experience, and our pup always leaves happy. Highly recommend!
My girls had a wonderful experience during their evaluation day! I’ve been searching for a doggy daycare for a while, and I’m so relieved to have finally found one they genuinely enjoyed. They came home happy, relaxed, and completely at ease. It’s clear the staff treated them with care, and I’m excited to bring them back.
My pup absolutely loves Hip Hounds. He even knows when we're getting close to the place, he goes nuts!! Rushing inside happy and excited as every. EVERY TIME!! 🤗❤️
Great place for bording
Love Hip Hounds! Michael's always been great, the checkout process is smooth, and my dogs always have a fun time here. The live cameras are a major plus, too!
Our dog loves her visits to Hip Hounds, and the staff is always on top of communications and caring for our dog when we travel.
I am so glad to have recently found Hip Hounds for my Dixie to go to daycare. I really like having the webcams. Michael, the owner, and Matty were very welcoming and answered questions before I asked.
Our two pups loveee their doggy day care spot! They always come back tired and ready to sleep for days haha. Definitely recommend this place for your fur babies. They even accommodated us for certain situations. We’ve been here for several years. Literally are pups second home! Don’t hesitate.
Wonderful place for my pup. Always so welcoming. Juni loves Hip Hounds.Michael and his team are the best.
My coworker referred me to this place a couple months ago. I love Michael and Hip Hounds. They are very caring and great with my dog. Ziggy has been going to this dog daycare after my other dog passed away in January and it has been great for him to socialize with other dogs. I appreciate all staff and Michael very…
ove them been going for years and they are great
We have been bringing our dogs the Hip Hounds for twenty years now for both daycare and overnight boarding for seven days or more. Michael and his staff are professional and our pets are always well looked after. Our current furry baby loves to go and always drags us to the door.
Hip Hounds is the best!! Great, caring and attentive staff. Half days and full service boarding are available. I have referred my friends and co workers. You can watch your furbaby live on the Webcam, I love this Thank you!
Evaluation day was great. Trooper came back happy and tired. I love the access they give to the webcams. They're also attentive and I saw someone cleaning up often. Definitely was nerve wracking at first but I received an update within a couple hours and I was able to relax and know he was in good hands.
When your dog knows which day of the week is daycare day, and practically rips your arm off trying to get into the facility, you know they are doing it right. And when you watch on the web-cam and you see at least 20 dogs all hanging around without a care in the world and getting along in a pack…doggie heaven.
