Mia has been going here an always has an awesome time playing with her friends! Mia is energetic and excited; Jessica and Val have worked with us, so Mia is happier and more relaxed. I recommend the classes, training day school and boarding. The staff is attentive and takes the best care of Mia! We can't wait to start our Scentwork program in March!

OUTSTANDING!!! Absolutely love this place!!!! I highly recommend for all doggy families out there who are looking for an excellent place to help you care for the needs you may have for your pup!!! Training, Daycare, Boarding, Grooming and so on. The staff are all very experienced, so friendly and knowledgeable. Great care was taken to ensure an excellent transition into Daycare. Because my pup loves the daycare, boarding was also a wonderful experience and very helpful for us. Easy online booking makes it easy to schedule. My favorite part has been attending the canine academy with my Golden Retriever. Jessica is a top notch professional and offers all levels of training for those seeking classes. Excellent experience, I learned so much and am grateful to say I have a well behaved pup who is still working hard!!! Jessica has a special way with all dogs and their unique personalities. She helped me to understand key training points with great examples so that I could practice and develop these skills successfully on my own. Best part was that we ALL had a BLAST and class was so much fun!!! Looking forward to another class in the future. Special Thanks to Everyone at our home town Dogz Gone Wild!!!!!! You’re the BEST❤️

Having adopted a very shy rescue girl, I decided to enroll her in training. We met Jessica Newcomb and have done several classes from obedience, Canine Good Citizen, nosework as well as a summer/fall walking class out in the public to train for everyday dog/people encounters. I never would have dreamed that I could achieve the level of obediance we are at (Pippa and I) to have very comfortable and safe walks in our community! Jess knows dogs; Jess knows pet owners--who often require more training than the pups! I have recommended Jess to several friends who with me, sing her praises!I have also utilized daycare and boarding. I was able to take a vacation (the first in a very long time) and then had an emergency hospitalization. I was able to reach this facility and get Pippa right in. Because of their familiarity with Pip and her anxiety, the team was able to work with Pippa to make her feel comfortable and safe in a board/daycare environment, providing her the separation from other dogs/people that was needed and then introducing her to dogs in daycare so she could make friends and acclimate and actually enjoy her stay each time. I was amazed and grateful for the level of care and Pippa's success for a dog who is so distrustful and anxious! Facility is clean, Pip's property taken care of, staff friendly and most accommodating to Pippa's needs as well as mine.

Great place! Love being able to bring my dog for daycare and boarding and knowing he’s able to socialize in a comfortable, monitored space. Staff is awesome and attentive. Have also done a training session with Jess which was very helpful!

Moved back to the area from down south this past spring. Started out boarding our baby at another place that was closer to us and noticed some things we didn't like. Our vet recommended we contact this place to see if they had openings for new dogs. We did a tour and immediately knew this was the place for our baby. The owner is amazing and very accommodating. We decided to start daycare recently, and our Daisy is now learning obedience and manner skills during her daycare stays. Thank you from Gio , Anne and Daisy!

Today was Pippa’s first day at day care. Tina greeted us both on arrival then took Pippa for a trial run with the group. I didn’t hear from Tina after an hour, so that was good... meant all was going well. Mid-morning I checked their Facebook page and was excited to see all the photos! There were several pics with Pippa in them so we had a glimpse of how things were going. It was just what we needed! I emailed midday regarding pick up, and Tina’s response was prompt and detailed. When I picked Pippa up, I received a nice synopsis of her day and given other helpful information. Plus, I received a ‘report card’ on her interactions and behavior. It was a very nice experience all the way around. Pippa will now be a weekly regular!

The owner is a professional dog trainer, handler and instructor. We had an issue with our dog and were turned away from other dog day cares due to Charlie being " aggressive". Val took the time and showed us exactly what was causing his behavior( it wasn't Charlie) and his reaction stopped. She worked with us, and then Charlie and it was like he was a different, happier, relaxed dog. I will forever be grateful and I'm so glad our vet recommended we try Dogz Gone Wild. I don't usually write reviews but this place deserves it. Charlie has a better life because of it.

Professional canine handlers and trainers right here in Baldwinsville, at a beautiful facility offering grooming, boarding and daycare, as well.

They are an amazing group of people! Caring, friendly. Can definitely see they love what they do. I love the daily photos on Facebook!

Our 2 girls love going there for play days or staying overnight. And when they come home they are all played out, a long nap is in order. It is nice to also be able to see the pictures of all the dogs that they get to play with

Went to visit the facility the day before a trial day care stay. Was very impressed with both the owner and employee who answered my initial call. Both were more than happy to answer any questions I had about their facility and process to taking care of my dog and how they ensure safety while the dogs interact. Facility was clean with no noticeable animal smell which was impressive considering their business allows for a large volume of dogs residing there.Trail day care day went well, they were able to give me written feedback on how my dog was while there with a focus on his comfort level. Was obvious they took great care as their report matched exactly how I'd expect my dog to act while there. Will definitely return.

would not leave my dogs here again. We went on vacation for a week and signed our dogs up for day care for 3 week days of day care while we were gone plus kennel. When I arrived to pick them up I was told they did not get to do day care because they were short staffed and that they were only out of the kennel 15 to 20 min a day. Then they wanted to charge me a damage fee for my dogs destroying the blanket that I brought and pulling tape off the floor. The worst part is there was zero communication while this was accouring no phone call or anything. They should be ashamed of themselves one of my dogs came home with a soar bald spot on her nose from being in kennel for so long. do not leave your dogs here.

Our dog loves daycare and boarding at Dogz Gone Wild! Everyone there is so friendly and caring. She is actually sad on the days she doesn’t get to go! Socializing with the other dogs has been such a great experience for her.

I recently left another daycare to come to dogz gone wild and the moment you walk in you can tell there is a difference! The facility is very clean visually and smells very clean! My dogs no longer come home smelling terribly like they did at other facilities. The owner is also a very knowledgeable dog trainer and has trained her staff accordingly. They watch the dogs attentively and are trained to understand canine behavior, so they can see if any dogs need their intervention before any issues arise. If you want true peace of mind, knowing your dogs are well taken care of and under PROPER supervision, dogz gone wild is your place!

My dog was boarded here for 8 days and she was well taken care of. I really like the video clips showing her happy and playing, it really puts your mind at ease. They gave her a bath and cut her nails before pick up which is optional but it gave the whole experience a nice touch. The place looks clean and cared for. I definitely recommend them and will use them on our next vacation.

Looked after our Greyhound very well. Paid attention to his needs by noticing him favoring a leg that had been injured, and limited his playtime with other dogs so he could rest the leg. Grooming was very well done. The staff members communicated well. Will book again!

Our dog was very shy when he first started boarding, he would flip his food over and didn’t really want to be bothered with any other dogs. Now he plays, eats his food, and comes home exhausted after a weekend away!They also communicate so well! Reagan was having some issues adjusting and I received an email letting me know what was going on. That communication as well as his experience really makes this facility top notch.

Dogz Gone Wild watched our dog while we were on vacation for a week and we are completely happy with our experience. Prior to us bringing our dog, DGW was very responsive to my phone calls and questions regarding necessary paperwork needed as well as answering my many questions I had. While there, they constantly uploaded pictures throughout the day of the dogs which ended up being a special event for my family while on vacation as we’d check their Facebook pages every night to see our dog. He always looked happy and like he was having fun in all the pictures. I even reached out via email to check on him and they got right back to me. I love that they also offer grooming and nail trim options. Overall, we are very pleased with Dogz Gone Wild and our experience with them. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience.

This was my first time bringing my little dog to dogz gone wild. From the minute I called to make an appt to the minute I picked him up, my experience was amazing. The staff is so personable and they make sure your dogs hair is exactly how you want it. He’s an anxious dog and doesn’t like to be touched sometimes but they did an absolute amazing job on him. I highly recommend them and will definitely be going back!!

Dogz Gone Wild is such a great daycare. My dog has had such a great experience utilizing both their grooming services and boarding/ daycare services. There are fun activities to enrich puppy play (toys, kiddie pool, play sets) and an indoor and outdoor play area. My dog gets so excited every time we pull up!

Absolutely love it here for our dogs! 😊 every time I see pictures of them they are happy, running around and playing constantly. We also take them here for grooming and they are super professional with our dogs (especially since they hate getting their nails trimmed). We will definitely be regular customers!

This is the first time I used Dogz Gone Wild. Our Sophie was a guest here for 8 days and had a wonderful time playing with other dogs. She was well taken care of while she was there! The daily pictures on FB really helped stay connected to her!

I cannot say enough about this place! We just moved in the area recently and found out about this place and wanted to try it for grooming! We have a petite golden doodle! Tina was very responsive and friendly when I called to set up the appointment! Today Benji has his grooming done by Tina and we are SO pleased! He looks amazing. This is going to be our new place we bring Benji from now on. Thanks Tina!

Not a big fan of the new groomer. She had a major attitude and was 40 minutes late for our appt. If she would have have been on time and not rushed, she would have listened to us. She kept saying " I am really good at what I do". They increased their price because of her, which we understood, but then she was late. The dogs cuts were really short and she cut one of our dogs ears and we asked her not to cut his. They were really beautiful and long. I know it will grow back, but with an attitude like her's, I don't trust her. For that reason we will not be going.back. Before her we were happy with.them.

I have no problem with Dogz Gone Wild at all. I have taken my dog there for day care. These people are wonderful. They really care about your dog and his comfort and do their best to make him happy there. I highly recommend them.

After going to a daycare that was very handsoff, our dog has been trained to enjoy the company of other dogs again! I cannot express enough how happy I am with what they've done and how they handle their business. Thank you!!

Very polite and professional people at dogs gone wild. Barney looked great they did a awesome job grooming him. Just like last time Barney was groomed there he looked amazing. I would recommend this place to anyone who owns a dog.

I have my 14-yr old shih-tzu groomed at Dogz. It is such a pleasant place. Nice and quiet atmosphere, even though they run a daycare. They are quick and efficient and do a great job. Since they are not grooming dozens of dogs at once, my dog is less stressed.
