K9 Tailshakers is simply amazing. My pup went through training with Kat and now goes weekly for alumni. He also gets groomed there, and it's the only place I would ever board him. Everyone at K9 has an obvious passion for their work and when you leave your "best friend" with them it's with full confidence they will be taken care of and loved as if they were at home. Jan, Laura, Heather, Theresa, Kat, Paige and Tucker's best buddy Jess (+the rest of the team at K9) are an outstanding group of folks and the best in class when it comes to caring for your furry friends.

A special shout out to Laura Stoltz, Theresa Jaworowski, and Heather Michalak, you guys rock and Sebastian and I appreciate you all very dearly. Sebastian has been attending K9 Tailshakers for almost 9 years and till this day he absolutely loves his weekly visits – the tail movement says it all!

Everyone is amazing here. We have tried 3 other places and they don't compare to Jan, Laura, and all the staff. Everyone treats our dog like their own furbaby. Theresa & Kayla we love you!

We just got back from vacation, and our two boys (Samson and Loki) stayed here for a total of 6 days. We have nothing but great things to say about this place. We’ve never taken a vacation as a family, because we didn’t want to board our dogs- they’re our kids! We decided it was finally time, and I’m SO THANKFUL that we landed at K9 Tailshakers!!! From the first phone call they were very helpful and just good people. I could go on and on with detail, but just know that I’m very anxious about our dogs’ care- I trust these people 100%. They were patient, calming and informative during each (and every) phone call I made to them throughout our time away from the boys. We will be using their loving services again! Thank you,l to the wonderful staff :)
