Fetch Doggy Day Care

I have no idea what I would have done without Fetch. We had a death in the family and needed to make arrangements to leave town ASAP. I have a 5 month old Italian Greyhound puppy who I’ve had for about 2 months now. I was totally unprepared for this situation of where to leave my dog in this event. Thankfully I found fetch after searching online and calling different kennels in the area. Fetch was one of the only places that even answered their phone at the time (after 7pm) and had room for my pup on such short notice. When I brought her to fetch in the morning they made me feel so comfortable. I could tell the staff was so caring and compassionate about all of the dogs. I was way more nervous than she was — she got in the play room and felt right at home! The staff saw that I was upset about having to leave her and told me to call as often as I needed to. They also took my cell phone number and sent me pictures just about everyday of my pup loving her time at fetch. I opted for one of the private suites for my dog and it was perfect. My only wish is that fetch had online webcams — they have cameras in the playrooms and suites for the staff to see but I would love to be able to check on my dog at any time online. When I came back to get her I got to meet the owner Jennifer who was just great and told me how good my dog did with them. My pup is now fast asleep on my lap and completely unmovable! I trust fetch 100% with my dog and will bring her back whenever I need boarding or day care.

Omg. The fact that my dog is laying quietly on the couch next to me at this hour (one of his many daily witching hours) is like a dream come true. I haven’t had a lot of time lately to bring him to the dog park, and the time I did have was during rainy time, so he has been PRETTY punchy lately and literally never. stops. moving. or touching things. moving things. trying to smell my face… I’ve been losing my MIND…
anyway, I dropped him off for his orientation, which was 3 free hours of day care, and he is beat! The place was great, the staff so nice, and the set up was awesome — varying options depending on the size of your dog and what is in their best interest at the time (crate, quiet room, open dog area). sheesh. can’t believe I waited this long to go here.
EDIT: I did drop it down one star because I forgot that the dogs don’t get to go outside (only speaking for day care, not sure about overnights and whatever else). This is not really a huge issue for me because I wouldn’t be leaving him for more than a couple hours anyway — but I’m not in love with that concept… I wish there was an outdoor environment.

Fetch is fantastic! My pup is a Great Pyrenees/​Lab mix and is a sweetheart. But he tends to get grumpy later in the day. The Fetch staff knew how to handle when it began, and they either move him to a lower intensity play room, or let him take a nap. They are always in tune to what the dogs need, and they do what’s best to be sure all of the dogs have a pleasant experience. They are as happy to see Jovi each day as he is to see them. This is my first dog, and he has been at Fetch since he was a little boy. He is now a year and a half. He was a feisty and stubborn puppy. Jennifer offered advice many times, and she was right on every time. Jovi is now a well adjusted dog, and I appreciate all the support the Fetch staff has given me. We are still learning. Jovi loves his days at Fetch and gets crazy excited when he knows he is going. He has stayed overnight some as well, and I wouldn’t board him anywhere else. He is tired and happy after a day or stay, and I know he is loved and cared for.

I went to Fetch yesterday to tour it and find out about leaving my long-​haired Dachshund, Jack there on Thursday afternoons. I had read the reviews on several sights and the only bad thing anyone said was that the place smelled strongly of urine. I was prepared to not be impressed if the smell was really bad. It wasn’t, so they must have changed their clean-​up policy. However, I now know WHY there would have been complaints about the smell.
They DON’T TAKE THESE POOR DOGS OUTSIDE to use the bathroom. At all. I talked to two different staff members who told me the same thing. They use the bathroom in the room where they and the other dogs are. But, both staff members were quick to tell me about the wonderful clean up policy.
What I think they are missing is that this is cruel treatment for the dogs. We have taught them never to pee or poop inside. They feel guilty when they have an accident at home because we have taught them not to go indoors. Then we take them somewhere where they aren’t allowed to go outside for their business.
I know that my Jack would hold it until he was in pain before he would have an «acident» inside. Then he would feel awful because he went inside.
I have left a message for the owner to call me. I want to hear from her why she has this policy. After all, she’s a dog trainer! She’s also certified in dog massage. She should certainly know better.
If I ran a daycare and never took the toddlers to the potty, the moms would have me for lunch! This is the same thing.
If she gives me a different explanation when she calls me back, I will retract this review. But, I got that from two different employees.

I have to say not to judge a book by it’s cover. The first time I walked in, I was not impressed. The smell was a bit much. It was like I had walked into a doggy nursing home.
In talking with the staff, they won me over. My Lab has a bit of a humping problem with mostly Goldens and Yellow Labs. He is actually a sissy boy and very sensitive so it’s not a dominance thing. He lives with a female Pit Bull and believe me, she is the boss! They have been very patient with him and actually told me that he gets over stimulated and that is why he does this.
Since I rescued Cooper from the pound, I didn’t want a place to simply board him where he would be in cage all day. Here spends most of the day playing, playing, playing with other dogs. I also love that they give him a free bath after 5 days.
They are wonderful with Cooper and very attentive to my somewhat neurotic requests for Cooper’s care.
He comes home and sleeps for about 2 days after spending a weekend here. Cooper is my baby and I wouldn’t trust him to just anyone. This really is a wonderful place with great employees.

Best dog daycare in the area ! Our dogs love to go to fetch and the staff is the best.

Our dog is extremely people shy and gets very nervous around new people. The staff at Fetch have been so helpful and patient with her. They are always friendly and greet you with a smile. Our sweet girl comes home worn out an happy every time. My only complaint is the smell of the facility. I understand that there are a lot of dogs all under one roof, but smelling strong dog urine when you walk in is not pleasant and almost made us choose another place to take our dog. However, the staff won all of our hearts over with their genuine care and love for dogs. We know she is in excellent hands as soon as she walks through the door.

Our goldendoodle, Lillie loves Fetch. I know she loves us but when we drive up to Fetch, she goes crazy! Jennifer Parks and her staff are outstanding. Don’t take our word for it… ask Lillie.
