My dog loves it here! He always has the best day and is exhausted when he gets home lol. I love that they do cute activities for the holidays, make training recommendations when needed, and have pretty much everything you need. I love how they divide the groups based on size, temperament, etc, because our last daycare just put all dogs together in one big group, which was overstimulating for him at times. I can’t recommend them enough and every staff member has been SO sweet and helpful.

I first came across furget-me-not training when I was looking for fun classes my dog and I could take on the weekends. My interest was piqued at their Reactive Dogs classes, since I knew it took a special type of understanding and expertise to work with reactive dogs. So I signed up my dog, Arnold, him being a reactive dog. Over the course of the 6 weeks, we were able to feel really reassured that our years of training and work was going in the right direction. I was really appreciative of how patient, kind, and knowledgeable Juliet and Malia were during each class. They were also flexible and attentive to each student - when they saw Arnold was already comfortable with some skills, they would give us helpful tips on how to make it more challenging or purposefully give us opportunities to challenge Arnold a bit more. We were more than happy to practice some skills we already knew in a live classroom AND learn new ones with other dogs in a controlled environment. The tools Juliet and Malia gave us are now engrained in us, and I can genuinely say that it has helped Arnold improve in just 6 short weeks - I haven’t seen this rate of improvement in him over the YEARS we have been practicing on our own. Just the other week, he had absolute no reaction to people cleaning our home, when 6 weeks ago he was barking his head off at them. I feel much more confident in my skills as Arnold’s mom and handler, and I also feel closer and more understanding of my dog. I have been recommending furget-me-not training to several friends, and I stand by it. They know their stuff. I can’t wait to come back for Reactive 2 and explore the other classes that can really help us and Arnold learn the tools and skills that will help him shine and be the best version of himself no matter the challenge! Thank you so much Juliet and Malia!!

I love that when I drop my puppy off for daycare, her tail starts wagging before I even park the car. The staff greets her by name with lots of pets and attention. She comes home a tired and happy pup. The staff has been very flexible, accommodating and helpful. I definitely recommend this daycare to others.

Not really feasible. We dropped our Huskey here a couple of times, but one employee insisted that we only only bring him on weekends simply because he barked too much at pickup times. This was despite our dog getting stellar behavior comments from the other employees. We explained that he was vocal because it is a standard huskey characteristic, but he simply did not like our dog. Upon further questioning, we determined that he did not even read the directions we left with our dog and did not even know the dog's gender despite multiple corrections. Weekend daycare is useless to us and we have no time for flaky sensitive employees. We use the place down the road now.

I'm new to the area and found Fur Get Me Not through a Google search and I have had a wonderful experience so far! They have been very good to my dog and I really appreciate how much they communicate with dog owners. I think if you're looking for a place that will make you feel better about leaving your dog for daycare or boarding, this is the place.

In an area with so many daycare/boarding options I can imagine its difficult to compete however Fur-Get Me Not has won us over. Two months of day care, a full week of boarding, and a great consultation experience. Its team is always open to questions we may have and its nice to see a variety of interactive toys locally.I truly believe the environment here has helped our younger dog come out of her shell and be more social. Highly recommend.

We have brought both of our dogs as puppies to the Furgetmenot puppy socials. The trainers there are great if you have a more timid/cautious puppy. They separate them into 3 or 4 groups and make it a positive experience for both dogs and humans. The socials really helped give our puppies a confidence boost.

I always love going to VCA in Old Town. They are always courteous and treat my pups like family members!

Our dog Zoey absolutely loves coming here for daycare. They have a great schedule for the dogs that is exciting and tiring for our very active Boston Terrier. Plus, we get a thorough report card after each stay. Highly recommend!

This is going to be a bit of a "stan" review.Recently, my dog Tucker, collapsed at boarding while I was out of town. For understanding this happened just after a major winter storm that shut down everything. Because of the quick action of the staff and owner, Tucker was immediately taken to the emergency room and rushed into surgery that afternoon. Without fur-get-me-not, Tucker wouldn't be sitting at my feet recovering now. I can't say enough good about this company, it's team and how they have provided excellent care for my two dogs over the past two years. These folks know my dogs, their personalities and their needs. Would give 10 stars if I could.

Great place to take your pups. Caring staff and definitely trustworthy. Pricing is a bit high but sometimes it’s worth it to take care of your loved furry ones.

Furgetmenot is the best doggie daycare in the area! The entire team is professional and treats your dog and you like family. I love how they split up the dogs by size and play style so that way each doggo has a happy place while away for the day or weekend. They’re also awesome at providing calming breaks and worked hard with my past dog. I went a year before I returned with my new pup and they recognized me, it made me feel so happy and “at home” with my pups. I highly recommend furgetmenot for all their services! Thanks for all that you do!!

Fur-Get Me Not has been an amazing Dog Day Care and Boarding Center for our dog.We have been taking our dog to FGMN since they were young and we believe that it has done an amazing job socializing her along with how we are training her at home.FGMN does a great job with their daycare, they have good hours, a very efficient drop off and pick up process with friendly employees and a shop with your pet care essentials. The report card that we receive at the end of each session is a great update on how the day went and if there is anything we need to be aware of. All communication is very professional and helpful.FGMN also does a great job with boarding with clear instructions and updates. Knowing how much our dog likes the day care, we trust FGMN to do a great job boarding our dog.We heard great things about FGMN before we started taking our dog there and they have met our expectations.

My partner and I highly recommend Fur-get Me Not. We have experienced both their daycare and boarding service and they take such great care of our young tripawd! She is so tired and content after each daycare day and we eagerly read her report cards to see how she did. The staff is so patient and helps enforce good habits. When it came time to board her for the first time, we were very nervous about it but knew Fur-get Me Not would be the best option. It was, she had a blast! The pre-boarding communication was great, we received regular updates, and - upon picking her up - we received a copy of the full activity log noting how she did/ate/behaved each day! So grateful that we found and chose Fur-get Me Not!

Fur-Get Me Not went above and beyond in saving our dog's life while we were on vacation overseas. The dog walker quickly realized that the our dog was behaving abnormally, and after informing us, got them to our vet, and then to the pet hospital--all on the Saturday evening before Easter Sunday. They kept us informed of the situation until we were able to get back a few days later. And our dogwalker even went to check on our dog when he was recuperating in the hospital. If it weren't for the team at Fur Get Me Not we wouldn't have been able to see our dog alive again.

Everyone who works here is amazing, and we always feel at ease knowing our dog is safe and having fun while he's here. We have done training (nosework) and used their daycare services regularly, and couldn't be happier. Over the top service that feels personal and like you're part of the family. They even gave us a handwritten card on our dogs last day of daycare (we're moving out of the area), which was extremely sweet of them. Definitely recommend checking Fur-Get Me Not out!

My dog and I LOVE it here! I never worry when dropping him off for boarding. They take the best care of him and he is always excited to go back. We have also done dog training classes here which are great!

They take great care of Jellybean. They are always excited to see her and she loves them. She enjoys the "Enrichment Camp." We appreciate that she gets a "report card" every day so that we know her progress and how her day was spent. I was concerned when my daughter decided to board her with them while she went out of town, but again, they took great care of Jellybean. I would highly recommend Fur-Get-Me Not.

I highly recommend Fur-Get Me not training services. I have a dog who is HIGHLY reactive and have been in similar situations to others who have left reviews as well. The trainer that I worked with has been nothing but gracious and understanding giving me concrete tools and ideas on how to help my dog become less reactive. I appreciate the suggestions and training I am getting, along with my dog!If you want good ethical training for your dog, I would say, look no further! I'm looking forward to continuing working with Fur-Get Me not trainers to learn more to help my dog.

Dog got bit there. Staff did not seem to care. Hired a dog walker once too for 30 min dog walk and he came and let my dog out for less than 5 minutes. Overall hasn’t been terrible experience otherwise. Just seems staff is disinterested or indifferent to the care of the dogs. Plus there is no live feed of the dogs to monitor situations like how my dog got bit.

My pup loves going here. The staff is great and they have many add-ons you can purchase like enrichment camp if your dog is like mine and sleeps all day at daycare.

I have been taking my dog to Fur-Get Me Not for about a month now. They have been fantastic! I really feel that they care about my dog and I can see how much he loves going there. Over the past few weeks, his confidence has increased so much. I love the report cards they leave at the end of the day that lets you know who they played with and how their behavior was. Keep up the great work!

My dog does weekend daycare and boarding at Fur-Get Me Not. We love the place, the staff is so friendly and genuine and my dog adores them. We recently boarded her for more than two weeks and she came back as healthy and happy as when we dropped her off. Another time when my dog was boarding, she unexpectedly got sick and they took her to our own vet on the other side of town. This place is the real deal.

We rescued a small dog who had been very neglected and therefore had A LOT of fears. We took him to the Confidence Building I class a few years ago and it did wonders for him. It helped him gain so much confidence that he is like a different dog. He has really blossomed over the past few years and we think much of that growth is due to Confidence Building.We would recommend Fur-get Me Not’s training classes to anyone. They are professional, friendly, and worth every penny.

We’ve been bringing our dog to Fur-Get Me Not since we adopted him almost 3 years ago. He LOVES going there and I always know he’s being well taken care of. He is high energy and can be a handful, but they’ve always been able to manage him. They’ve been especially flexible with our ever changing pandemic work schedule, which is so helpful. Couldn’t be happier that we chose Fur-Get Me Not!

I used Fur-Get-Me-Not for dog training on basic manners, and currently use them for midday dog walks and occasionally day care. They are exceptional. Unfailingly professional and responsive, and most importantly they care for my pet in a very personal and mature manner. I recommend them to anyone in the market for these services.

TLDR: NOT EFFECTIVE training for some aggressive or reactive dogs.If you don't know, this is a positive-only training company as opposed to balanced training where you introduce both positive rewards and negative consequences. While this place was great for our one dog who needed more confidence, it was a DISASTER for our other dog who was reactive.Our 2-year old chihuahua was reacting on walks to other dogs, people, strollers, ect by barking and lunging. He was also reactive in the house, growling at me if he got scared. We spent 8-months in a 1-1 aggressive training course and his behavior only got WORSE. We were advised to accommodate his bad behaviors, distracting him with reward. We felt hopeless. Our trainer asked us to consider anxiety medication and told us about re-homing options.Finally, we decided to try balanced training with a different company. We used Ridgeside K-9 but I'm sure there are others. They introduced an e-colar for negative consequences in addition to positive rewards. Fur-Get-Me-Not is against these methods and our trainer actually warned us not to do this. But it was the BEST decision we ever made.We are about 3 months in and he SO much less reactive. He knows how to manage his emotions he is now super relaxed on walks, staying right by our side when dogs or people pass by. He even heels on walks now! But also, he is sooooo much happier. His anxiety is actually significantly lower!! He is friendly and calm when meeting people. We can even bring him to outdoor patios now. He is so much happier, and so are we!

Fur Get Me Not is fantastic with training, especially for your dog that needs a little extra special attention. I was dealing with a newly adopted mini dachshund who had been hoarded all her life and was terrified of literally everything- including me for a while. I took her to the confidence building 6 week seminar, and the improvement was very visible. While she's still a bit nervous, she's settled in and no longer hides under the bed for 3 hours at the slightest noise. The trainers are very knowledgeable, each dog gets very personal attention, and they make sure that the owners know why they're doing everything so that they can replicate at home. They also provide a lot of background information and reference material for you to use at home. I would highly recommend for any dog that has special needs!

They know exactly what they're doing with dogs. I completely trust them with my dog for a weekend. He is always super excited to arrive and comes home completely worn out. If you have a high energy dog they are definitely worth it. The staff are great and know how to play with dogs.
