We have boarded our dogs (sadly, now just dog) here many times, and they are FANTASTIC! If you are someone who might be put off by the location, I urge you to go take a look and meet the staff - Levi and company are the best, and our pups love them! Pro tip - make sure you pick up in the afternoon and get your fur baby a checkout bath, and you can skip the groomers!

I have 3 dogs needing board. Is it possible to board them together.. I need to go to CA for 3-5 days sometime in the coming 3 weeks. What r your rates & availability?
We can, depending on the size of all three of your dogs! But unfortunately due to the holiday season we are completely booked for the rest of the year. Hope you have a wonderful holiday season.

Do you do an assessment of my dog, before he begins being a customer.
We didn't do an assessment but we did discuss in great detail what issues I was having with my dog.

What is your boarding fee for a cat.
$16 a day! Charges start the first day you drop off and if you pick up on your last day before 10am you aren’t charged for that day of boarding.

Elevate Dog Center saved my dog! A year ago I was struggling with my two year old Aussie mix Blueberry. He was a perfect dog in the house but he had aggression issues towards strangers that prevented him from living a normal life. He had been turned down by vet office after vet office for aggression. Nobody could touch him. After seeing two other trainers and seeing very little progress, I had reached a breaking point. Elevate Dog Center changed our lives! They worked with us to make sure his needs were met. They helped us get him vaccinated and helped us find ways to better manage his anxiety. They helped him build relationships with NEW people, which he had never done before. Other trainers and veterinarians had told me to put him down. People are constantly complementing his behavior in public. He can meet new friends (humans and dogs). Blue lives the amazing life I always wanted him to have! If you’re at your wits end with your dog, I highly recommend giving Tamison and her team a call. They were professional from beginning to end. They produce long lasting results and always treated my boy like family (even when he was not so easy to get along with). Blue just turned three last month and I’m confident that we’ll get to spend many more years together thanks to the hard work of Elevate’s staff!
First time taking my dog there for boarding. Absolutely will use them again. Everyone was great.
Elevate has trained our puppies since they were little. The staff is incredible—professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and they clearly love all the dogs they work with. We also have boarded with them a few times and our dogs came home happy, healthy, and clean thanks to the grooming add-on.
Passionate, diligent staff. I have 100% confidence that my girl is in good hands here when we have to board her. Makes me feel good when I’m dropping her off and she sees one of her favorite employees and wags her tail like mad. We’ve had a training session with Tamison and I also highly recommend that for anyone looking for dog training. Tamison is patient and knowledgable. Love this place.
