A Dog From The Dog Stop Cleveland Provides A Testimonial About Dog Daycare and Boarding

I love the dog stop plus! My dog is excited to go there in the mornings and doesn’t want to leave when I pick her up! She is an exhausted little puppy when I bring her home too. Also, they have great treats that my dog is obsessed with. I would recommend to family and friends!

“My Bailey, who has never liked going to boarding, loves The Dog Stop. I love that my pet’s feelings and experience matter to those who care for him here. Can’t say enough good things about The Dog Stop!”

Remi sitting in the play area

“We love The Dog Stop! Remi runs straight to the gate as soon as we walk in and wags her tail and paws at the gate. I also love that I can watch her on camera throughout the day. It’s nice being able to check in. Then at the end of the day, she immediately passes out in the car after we pick her up. It’s amazing! We take her once a week now but might be upping that to two cause she loves it so much.”

“I can’t say enough about the Monroeville Dog Stop. Tucker is a full-time daycare visitor Monday thru Friday, the staff knows all dogs by name that gives it a great personal touch. The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable. The retail area is nice, buy all his food and toys from there also.”
