I highly recommend The Dog Stop in The Colony! We did the VIP suite for our girl for five nights and it was a great experience! We were able to see her on video whether she was in her room or out spending time with the staff. They offer playtime or snuggles with your pet if they are not comfortable with other dogs…
The staff was very friendly and helpful. I just rescued a dog a couple of weeks ago and needed to leave town on short notice. They were accommodating and they took such great care of Finley. He was happy and clean when I picked him up. I will be using them again for daycare and boarding!
