Really can't say enough about Dana, Nancy and the rest of their team. We were desperately looking for options for our 4 month berner, and we stumbled across Life Is Dog, Inc - and we are so glad we did.The first conversation I had with Dana put me totally at ease; she explained how puppy day care worked - including the fact that they really only take 'regulars' so that the dogs get to know each other over time and they aren't introduced to new dogs every day. She arranged for my partner and I to meet Nick and Matt, the guys that pick up/drop off every day, and they were wonderful. We were nervous about our pup's first day, and we were pleasantly surprised to get regular updates and photos throughout the day from the staff at the daycare (shout out to steph!), relieving our anxiety immensely. These guys are so organized about everything from their programming, pick up/drop off schedules, to their invoices - and they have a range of other services we are looking forward to trying as well, like training classes. If you're looking for doggy day care, training, walking services and more, Life is Dog is the way to go.

I had an amazing experience bringing my new puppy to Life is Dog! The facilities are clean and safe and the staff is so helpful and responsive. They were able to answer any question I had and give me tips I didn't know I needed. Highly recommend!

Nance, Dana and the entire Life Is Dog team are extremely professional and reliable. You can clearly see each team members cares for each dog in there presence as if it was their own. There are extremely knowledgeable and can cater the training specifically to your dogs needs! The facility is clean and safe! I wouldn’t take my dogs anywhere else!

After not having success with our first attempt with a different trainer we took our 3 year old yellow lab mix rescue dog Jax to Life is Dog to see if they could help with his reactivity. After only two classes with Nance and Dana we began to see a change in Jax and his ability to follow our instructions. It was clear to us that their method of training was a great fit for our dog. Nance is extremely knowledgeable and understood what Jax needed. She also helped us understand him, which has helped us in his training. They were also very flexible when we had to reschedule unexpectedly a few times. We are very pleased with the tools they have given us to help Jax and we hope to continue his progress with more training with Life is Dog!

I love working for this team! Everyone is very knowledgeable about dogs. Nance and Dana are very good a paring walkers and clients together. I love all the different dogs and cats that I’ve gotten to take care of. I have more pictures of other people’s pets than my own. I love all the dogs different personalities and we have so much fun on our walks! My dog loved his time at day care. He was so tired from all the fun he had. I was able to have someone walk my dog for me when I went to a wedding. I loved the pictures and the detailed notes. I knew he was in good hands!
