Our dog goes twice a week. She loves, loves, loves it there. She plays all day and the staff is great. We have also boarded out dogs when we have gone out of town.

They were always busy and full.  It's a great place.  They have a friendly staff.  They know the dog's name.  You have to schedule your appointment three weeks in advance to do the day care.

They care for our dog. I’ve been using their services for about 4 years. I like their location, price and quality of care.

This is the best dog day care/ boarding place I have ever taken my dog to. The staff is wonderful and they took amazing care of my 14 year old schnauzer. He had a wonderful time and I will take him there again with no reservation. Highly recommend ;-)

Our dog, Finley, is a little cautious and takes a great deal of time to warm up to humans. She has certainly done so here. The staff and owner of Wigglebutts are all great and love dogs. They take care of Finley like she is their own. One of the main reasons we chose this boarding house over others that are closer to our home is because there is always someone there, 24 hours per day, when there are dogs present. This is very important to us.
Finley loves to go to Wigglebutts. Her favorite days are when we wake up and say and quot;Do you want to go to doggy day care?and quot; She's at the door waiting to leave. Pick-ups and drop-offs are easy, quick, and flexible. It is obvious when she comes home that she has been well taken care of and that she has had fun playing all day.
The only challenge we have is that they fill up so quickly, for both day care and boarding, that they are not able to regularly accommodate last minute requests. Any weekend or holiday boarding needs to be scheduled well in advance. They do attempt to accommodate you with waiting lists and the like (they got me in over 4th of July weekend after I had put myself on the waiting list). As a general rule, however, I can't plan to go somewhere overnight Saturday on Friday and expect to be able to board Finley. This is directly related to the fact that they are awesome and are in high demand not to any deficiency on their part.
I highly recommend Wigglebutts. More importantly, Finley recommends Wigglebutts. She is a happier, healthier dog because of her time here and she loves it.

I liked it they are cage free and they separate big dogs to small dogs. They have something to eat well for throughout the day about what your dogs doing and pictures and they have cameras but they're not live. They seem food full staff. I like it that they have barbecue staff and they give you personal update if you want throughout the day about your dog. They play with them and put customs on them and took their pictures. I would use this provider again in the future.

I've been taking my dog here for daycare and boarding for over a year. Their prices are very competitive especially if you use their coupon in the Town Planner. The facility is clean, the staff is professional and friendly, and I never worry about leaving my dog with them. It's comforting to know there's always someone with the dogs boarding overnight. They can get busy at times especially during school holidays so it helps to book far in advance.

We LOVE Wigglebutt Doghouse! The entire staff is great, Abby the beagle always has a great time and I know I never have to worry about how she's being cared for. I recommend Wigglebutt to all my friends.

I've only had an encounter with the person at the front desk, I think she is fantastic, she is very friendly and seem to care a lot about the dogs. Since my dogs behavior was such that he could not stay at the daycare for a long period, they did not charge me. It's refreshing to know that they are in business to provide good care to the dogs and not in it just for the money

Wigglebutt's is the best! They are so friendly, courteous, and dog-centric I trust them regularly with my dog. Some days I think my dog would rather spend the day with them than with me! Best doggy day care I've ever used, hands down. I highly recommend.

One of the best things about Wigglebutt is they offered a free day of doggy daycare prior to the week or boarding. That way we could go in and see the facility and the dogs could have a chance to become familiar with the facility. I felt so much more comfortable dropping the dogs off for a week since they had already had a (free) day there.
I loved that there were many different types of dogs for mine to play with and that there was enough staff in with the dogs to make sure there weren't any issues.
The best part was coming home from vacation to three tired dogs...a tired dog is a good dog.

We were going out of town and boarded our 1 yr old lab/blood hound mix dog at Wigglebutt Doghouse. First time with this company and first time boarding this dog. We could tell immediately that they cared, which was awesome when your animal is a part of your family. They post pics of your doggie on their facebook page so you can see them while you are gone. Also awesome! Our dog enjoyed playing with the other dogs over the weekend and was exhausted when we picked her up. I think she will be excited, instead of scared, when we go in their front door the next time we need to board her! Highly recommended!

I can not say enough good things about the Wigglebutt Doghouse! These are wonderful people who love what they do and show sincere interest in dogs... and it shows! They are always sensitive to each dog's needs and situation. We have a rescue dog that was very shy when she first started going to daycare. The folks at the Wigglebutt Doghouse have helped bring her out of her shell! She is excited to go play with her puppy friends and she is always exhausted when we pick her up! The facility always appears clean and the staff is knowledgeable. Their prices are very reasonable. Our dog is never left unattended. I highly recommend The Wigglebutt Doghouse!
As a note of interest, they don't have a puppy cam, but they do post very fun pictures on Facebook every day so we can see what our pup has been up to all day!

It was the firs time I had used them. They let my parents dog stay in the same pen for the night as well since our dogs were "siblings" and we also got a discount for that as well. The facility is very clean and doesn't smell like a lot of those places. I would use them again.

When I owned a pet professional company in 2011, I approached Ben at Wigglebutt about using my product and services. He was receptive, engaged and interested in learning more about my business and how it might benefit Wigglebutt. I found his facility to be well-run and I could tell that he had a passion for his work.
When it came time to find a doggie daycare for our family puppy, Molly, there was no other choice for us except Wigglebutt Doghouse. It simply rose to the top as sole contender. We've been so happy with their care and ability to manage multiple dog groups. The facility is large and there is ample room inside and outside for dogs to play and rest. When Molly plays too hard, she takes time out to rest or the staff puts her in a kennel by herself to rest for a while. She has met many dog friends and we know she is well cared for there. She is fed at lunch and we receive daily reports about her day.
We have used Wigglebutt Doghouse for doggie daycare 3x a week and also for boarding. We've been very pleased with them. Most of all, we don't worry when we leave Molly there. It's very obvious that the staff at Wigglebutt Doghouse genuinely love and care for dogs and treat them like their own. We are thrilled with their service.

The owner and the staff truly love what they do and it shows! We had looked at several other boarding kennels before our dog trainer recommend the Wigglebutt Doghouse. We were very nervous and apprehensive about leaving our 5 month old puppy with some of these other kennels. Wigglebutt made us feel right at home and more importantly made our dog feel like part of their family. The Wigglebutt facility is not much to look at from the street, but it is evident once you get in the door that they've spent their money in the right areas. The floors are epoxy painted concrete and the kennels made from white PVC fencing instead of the bare concrete and chain link fence. Their material choices look and feel so much cleaner then a standard kennel and I'm sure are easier to clean as well. They also help to brighten up the space and make the area feel more cheerful. During her stay the Wigglebutt staff discovered our puppy had an urinary tract infection. They called us and were able to offer us the help and advice we needed. The Wigglebutt Doghouse took our puppy to the vet for us. They called several times throughout the day to give us updates, sometimes when there weren't even updates to give, they just wanted to touch base and let us know they were on top of the situation. Wigglebutt even offered to watch our dog the next day so that she didn't have a bunch of accidents in our house. The owner called us that evening and texted the next day to check on our sick pup, personal touches and compassion you'd struggle to find anywhere else. Wigglebutt Doghouse is an amazing find for us and our puppy can't wait to go back. I can't imagine we'd ever use any other boarding facility.

We found the Wigglebutt Doghouse during some of our errands and are so, so glad we did! They are the only place we will ever use (space provided, of course) to care for our dog when we are out of town or overall have too long of a day away from our dog in order to provide him some stimulation and exercise throughout the day. The owners are very involved and love caring for the dogs entrusted to them. We have appreciated the personal touches they have provided and their willingness to be flexible with our schedules, taking our dog a bit early in the morning or keeping him a bit late. Most importantly, they care for your dog like one of their own. Our dog had a slight injury during play while there on an overnight, and they took him to a 24 hour vet (when our vet was closed), purchased his medication AND paid for the vet bill (not prompted or demanded by us - we understand that sometimes things happen and we were more than willing to reimburse them for this service). Ben (the owner) told us that they like to have the dogs entrusted to them returned to their owners in the same shape in which they were given, and if they can't, they will make sure to take care of any expenses that occur. What a wonderful and refreshing point of view! It's hard to find places that truly provide that kind of customer service and show that type of care toward what they do. Wigglebutt Doghouse has definitely earned our business and loyalty from our first visit.
