We boarded our dog for a week at Southpaw. Our dog was so happy, ate well and was let out many times a day for exercise and play time! Ben and Nani are professionals and know how to care for dogs. We will definitely be going back. A perfect location and setup!

Title: Wonderful Experience at South Paw Dog Academy & Boarding Rating: ★★★★★ Review: South Paw Dog Boarding has truly exceeded all my expectations for daycare and. boarding. From the moment we walked through the door, it was evident that this establishment prioritizes the well-being and happiness of its furry guests. First and foremost, the owners, Ben and Nani, are exceptional. Their genuine love for dogs shines through in every interaction. They greeted Bob with warmth and enthusiasm, making him feel right at home from the start. It was clear that they took the time to get to know him individually, tailoring their care to his specific needs and preferences. The facilities at South Paw are top-notch. Bob had access to spacious indoor and outdoor areas where he could play, socialize, and relax. The cleanliness and organization of the facility were impressive, creating a safe and comfortable environment for all dogs. I appreciated the attention to detail in maintaining a hygienic space for the pups. One aspect that sets South Paw apart is their commitment to enrichment and engagement. Bob had the opportunity to participate in various activities and games throughout the day, keeping him mentally stimulated and physically active. Whether it was pack runs through the poperty, group play sessions, or individual attention from the staff, Bob was always entertained and engaged. Communication was another area where South Paw excelled. I received regular updates and photos of Bob's adventures, which provided peace of mind and allowed me to stay connected while I was away. The staff was always available to answer any questions or address any concerns promptly, demonstrating their dedication to customer satisfaction. Overall, my experience with South Paw has been nothing short of exceptional. I couldn't have asked for a better place for Bob to visit for daycare or for boarding during my time away. I wholeheartedly recommend South Paw to any pet parent seeking a safe, loving, and enriching environment for their furry friend. Thank you to the entire team at South Paw for taking such wonderful care of Bob!

My dog Delta has been staying at Southpaw Dog Academy doing advanced gun dog training and we are so impressed with how well she is being taken care of and the progress she has made! We have visited many times and she smells great, her coat is so soft, kennels are clean, the facility is beautiful and the staff is so nice! Ben regularly keeps us updated on how Delta is doing and we just love how they have treated her like family and are so welcoming of us as well! Highly recommend!
We boarded our Frenchie, Pearl at Southpaw for a weekend, and she loved it! I don’t think she spent much time in her kennel, and was very loved. You can really tell the love they have for dogs! Big or small you can’t go wrong with Southpaw!

We boarded our two dogs here for 9 days when we went on vacation. I was so impressed with how well they took care of Lilly and Grizzly. When we arrived for pickup my border collie jumped up on one of the owners. She only does that with people that she likes. The dogs did not smell like urine and they seemed happy. They are very reasonable on pricing compared to other facilities in the area. I will definitely be using them again in the future. I am so happy to have such a nice facility for our dogs to stay. Both of the owners seemed very nice and down to earth.
