To make sure your pup receives the same love, care, and attention from our family as it does from yours.
OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU, OUR DOJO FAMILY
Your dog isn’t just a guest here — they’re part of our community.
At The Doggy Dojo, we commit to caring for your pup with the same patience, attentiveness, and respect they receive at home. Every decision we make starts with one priority: your dog’s health, safety, and emotional well-being.
Our team brings years of hands-on experience in dog care and is trained in Pet First Aid and CPR. We don’t just supervise play — we actively manage it, ensuring dogs are comfortable, engaged, and set up for positive social experiences throughout the day.
For families who use our transportation service, transparency and safety matter. You’ll receive text alerts when our drivers are on the way for pickup and drop-off, and our vans are equipped with GPS tracking and monitored alarm systems for added peace of mind.
Above all, we lead with kindness, generosity, and gratitude — toward our clients, our team, and every dog entrusted to us. We know how much your pup means to you, and we honor that trust every single day.
- Testimonials
Real stories from satisfied dogs.
Beans Mom
Oscar and the crew at Doggy Dojo are as good as it gets! We recently adopted a rescue dog and we were a little nervous about how she'd do at doggy day care. SHE LOVES IT and we love it. The DD team is flexible, considerate, professional and super knowledgeable on dog-related matters. DD is always willing to accommodate our erratic schedule and pick up/drop off our pup every time!
Oshie's Mom
If we could give Doggy Dojo 10/10 stars, we would. Our dog Oshie was been going to daycare with them for over two years. He is always happy when we turn onto Belmont and he knows where he is going. Everyone at Doggy Dojo really cares about the pups. At Dojo, you can tell the employees know the dogs personalities and they facilitate a day with them where the pups who want to play get to play...
Levi's Mom
The staff is amazing and everyone I talk to is informative, friendly and caring. Oscar goes above and beyond to make you and your dog feel comfortable, safe and ensure they are having fun. It's the best when you see pictures online of your dog and their new dog bff. This company truly cares about dogs I can't imagine getting through life with a super playful lab puppy without Dojo.
