My pup Raspberry has been coming to Paws Play since April 2023. This is my first experience with a doggy daycare and I couldn’t be more happy!I love seeing the updates on IG and TikTok while I’m at work, and I love that they do different events/activities for the dogs. We do daycare twice a week and she has so much fun that I don’t think she’s ready to leave when I pick her up!She sleeps amazing after a full day of playing with her friends and I’m happy knowing she’s in good hands when I’m at work!

My dog Luna has been going to Paws Play for almost three years and always has a great time. They work hard to make sure each dog had their personal needs met and enjoys every visit. Luna also loves boarding when I am out of town and I feel great leaving her with people she loves!

My dogs love this place. They cant wait to get out of the truck to play with all their friends. The staff is super fantastic. We do daycare, boarding and buy all our food from them. Super care of my pets and provide competitive prices on food.

Best doggy daycare ANYWHERE!!! Super great staff and doggy friends for our Mika. We take our pup once a week when my husband goes into the office. Mika is always so super excited to go in that it’s hard for her to contain her excitement.Aside from the daycare we’ve also had Mika stay for boarding. We like that she gets her own space and not have to be in a kennel since she doesn’t stay in a kennel at home.Seriously we could not be happier with Paws Play.

Boarded my dog here for a 5 day vacation. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff or care my dog received. He had a blast and played so much that he slept for a whole day after coming home haha.If you miss your pet, they will give you status updates and even send photos. I have attached a few. Look how happy he is! Cute! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I called on a Wednesday and scheduled a assessment visit for the next day Thursday at 10am. I drive all the way there for them to tell me the person that took my call made a mistake and they're not taking on any more dogs. And they were prepared to tell me this...they didn't just figure the mistake out while I was there. I'm fine with the fact that you can't take on more dogs but to make me drive all the way down from South Hill Puyallup when you had all my information is rookie league professionalism. Someone could have and should have just called me. Glad it didn't work out...the place is in some old warehouse and it looked cold and dungeon like in there.

Our pup Cedar has been coming since June 2022. The prices for daycare and boarding are very reasonable. They do great fun events and always show the dogs having a good time on Instagram. My dog loves coming back here each time. They know her well and greet her everytime she comes in. They have been great when she needed transportation and they were great calming my nerves the 1st time we boarded her. Just a good caring place to bring your dog.

I had a great experience. They took good care of my pup, including sending updates and photos when i asked. Good price, and long daycare hours.

My Chloe loves paws play! We have done both daycare and boarding here and each time we come back she is just so excited to be there! She always comes back home so happy and the staff here enjoy having her. They are always happy to tell me how she was while she was boarding/at daycare and point out her doggy friends. They accommodate to her needs, she doesn’t do well in kennels or in the suites (she is a stage 5 clinger and just wants to be around someone) so they accommodate her and don’t force her to stay in there. She also loves playing ball and the last time I picked her up they had given her her own ball that she just carried around all day. I seriously cannot recommend this place enough. We had a terrible experience boarding our Chloe at another place, she came back a zombie and was obviously not happy to be there at all. I have not seen anything remotely close to our experience with the first place at paws play! They treat the pups like their own and give them the freedom to run around and play all day long. I am so happy that we found paws play!

Our dog loves Paws Play! We tried other daycares before we found Paws Play on a recommendation from our boarder. The others were bigger groups and didn't seem to interact with the dogs too much and our dog didn't seem too happy to be there. After his first day at Paws Play he was tired and happy and definitely enjoyed the smaller pack there and the interaction the staff has with him. Now he knows when we are there and runs to the door to get in! It is nice to know that he is in caring hands while we are working as he is able to play but they give him time to rest too when they see he is tired. We are so glad we found Paws Play and our pup is too!

We love paws play. My dog is kinda new and still getting used to it. He only goes 2 days a week max. So far so good. I like the smaller amount of dogs that they have at daycare. I also like that they offer ball and play time, not just the dogs milling around all the time. Actual enrichment that’s more that just babysitting. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was I wish they had a video system that I could check in and watch my dog thru out the day. Although I love when he is featured on their instagram.

We LOVE Paws Play! Our pup, Murphy, goes almost every day and is so happy there. He is beyond well taken care of while there and I know he is in great hands. The people who work there love and genuinely care about all their dogs! We don’t know what we would do without them!

We’ve been taking our two dogs and a foster we had here since a couple months after they opened, and cannot recommend it enough!We had issues with another local dog day care, and were thrilled to find this one. It’s clear the owner and her staff value safety and the care of the dogs over money, and both of my dogs are always so excited when they realize where they’re going.They communicate super well on anything that happened during their stay we might want to know about, and have been super flexible when we’ve been out of town and had travel plans be delayed while our dogs are boarded.The facility is incredibly clean, smells great, and my dogs don’t come home sick like they did at the last place we went to. It’s such a relief to be able to drop them off for daycare and boarding and have zero anxiety on how they’re doing. We will definitely be long time clients!

Our dog loves coming here for daycare and boarding, and we feel confident that he is well cared for! Jessica & staff went the extra mile to ensure dogs safety during bad weather while we were out of town and were very communicative. I do wish there was a live stream of the communal play are but I love all the videos posted on social media each evening! We’ll continue to recommend Paws Play to all our friends.

We found Paws Play after visiting several local doggy daycares. The others were good, but there is something truly special about the owner and staff here at Paws Play. Jessica and staff take such good care of Winston our pup (we secretly think he may love her more than us). Winston loves going to play and we love knowing he’s in good hands. We also really love the additional services like nail clips and baths; it just makes life a little easier having those options available while he’s already away at daycare. I really cannot say enough about how much we love this daycare! Grateful to have found a place with people that love our boy as much as we do! Highly, highly recommend!

Jessica and her team are fabulous! My dog is so excited to go to daycare, I can’t get him out of the car fast enough! He just loves hanging out with his buddies and comes out with the biggest smile. All the staff are so kind, especially if you have questions or concerns.

Maisy loves going to daycare at Paws Play! Prior to bringing her to Paws Play we tried another daycare and Maisy was reluctant to go inside even after a few visits. The first time we took her into Paws Play she went right in the front door. It’s a relief to see her walk in confident and excited to see the staff and play with the other dogs. While she’s there they have structured play time and quiet time so the dogs don’t get overstimulated and during playtime there is always staff with them watching and listening to what is going on with the dogs. When we pick Maisy up there is genuine feedback on how the day went and her behavior during her time there. As dog parents we feel grateful for Paws Play and the staff!

We love Paws Play. Jessica and her staff are wonderful with our Mochi. The play area is very clean and i like how open the play is for him to run around. Every time we arrive here, Mochi is always trying to open the car door to go play. He comes home very tired. It's been nice that they've offer grooming which has been very convenient. They seem to be the only daycare that is open at 5:30am which has been great for me on the days I need to go early to work. I enjoy their frequent posts and videos on Instagram and FB. So much fun seeing them. I highly recommend Paws Play.

Our experience with Paws Play (Jessica & Crew) starts back when our two French Bulldogs were just pups -now they are 7 ... Sometimes I wonder where they are happier here or @ daycare!? Paws play has been a steady, reliable, & professional daycare with boarding like no other daycare we’ve ever seen !!! Paws treats all doggos with love & care !!! And it doesn’t hurt that Jessica is very intuitive and gives each of her daycare goers attention that best suits them!! So .. I would highly recommend Pays Play Doggy Daycare ... T.O.

Kora loves her time at Doggy daycare. Everyone takes such good care of her and she comes back home tuckered out and ready to relax. The Instagram photos/videos are great! I can see how much fun she is having throughout the day.

All of the dogs always seem so happy here, including my boy who seems to love the staff and enjoy going to daycare here. I love the Instagram videos- you get an insight into what your dog is up to and how comfortable they look. I did a lot of research to find the best daycare, and Paws Play seemed the most authentic and caring. He comes home clean unlike some other daycares in the area which is a huge bonus. Thank you PP!

I love this place! So personable and communicative! Even showed me some videos of her 1st day when I went to pick her up (which was super thoughtful, and I appreciated it). When I went to pick her up she didn't even want to get out of the car she was so tired! LOL, and that is saying A LOT because my pup is a ball of energy! 10/10 Recommended! 😊🐕

Paws Play was recommended to me by our favorite dog groomer. Luna has been going about once a week for a year and a half now. For her, it's a play date with her friends. They recently moved from a home setting to a big warehouse setting.

My dogs were so afraid when I dropped them off in the morning. When I came to pick them up, they were fully engrossed in the game they were playing, tails wagging, and big smiles. I was so nervous to leave the dogs but I felt completely relieved by the time I picked them up. All the other dogs seemed friendly and the employees were engaged with the dogs to keep them busy. I will bring my dogs back as needed. Prices are reasonable.

I myself do not have a dog, but I do have a cat. My job requires me to leave home a couple of days a month and the owner of Paws Plays, Jessica, always comes by and makes sure my Keke is well fed, brushed, and getting the attention she needs. I would highly recommend this place for all of your pets needs.
