What people have asked about this business.

How much for 4 dogs ? Two would need to be kept away from other two.

Hi John, thank you for reaching out and we apologize for the delayed response. We have a few requirements that the dogs must meet prior to their boarding. Why don't you shoot us a message to see if they meet all requirements? Since you have four doggies, we can offer you a discounted rate. Hopefully we can help you for your next boarding need. Looking forward to talking to you. Thanks!

Ali is awesome! He has a great personality and is just as good with people as he is with dogs. We brought our 1 year old Maltese-Poodle, Cedric, to him when he was basically a wild beast with zero direction. Ali helped us fix so many daily headaches—Cedric stopped charging the front door, learned to go to his kennel, got so much better on the leash, and worked through his dog aggression, just to name a few. The moment I knew the training was truly worth it happened recently when a large stray dog walked right up to us. The old Cedric would have lunged, barked, and likely escalated the whole thing. Instead, he stayed calm. I honestly think Ali’s socialization work and training saved us from a bad situation that day. I can't thank Ali enough for the peace of mind he gave us. Highly recommend him!

Ali and the Yay Doggy Daycare team have been taking care of my dog Barnaby for more than 5 years, and I highly recommend them. I’m grateful to have found a team that is knowledgeable, reliable, and great with communication. It's reassuring to see how excited Barnaby is to visit Yay Doggy to know I can trust them with his care!

I wanted to share my experience with YAY doggy day care. I started using their services after we lost our 14-year-old Labradoodle, Chowder Bear. The daycare is extremely knowledgeable with all types of dogs, and they are very accommodating and friendly. Our Border Collie absolutely loves coming here. If you are looking for a great place for your dog, I highly recommend trying a half-day of day care—you won't be disappointed.

My son brought home a Presa canaro rescue who was very aggressive. We worked with YAY on training and now have a great dog! Ali is very knowledgeable, dependable and easy to work with. YAY also helps out with dog walking when needed - he is my go to.
