About My Dog's Place LLC

When lifelong animal lover Marge took her beloved Gordon Setter, Java, to My Dog’s Place for the first time, both she and her pooch knew they’d found something special. Here, they discovered the power of positive reinforcement training, and like so many of our visitors, Marge fell in love with our humane and effective methods. Today, she is proud to be owner and manager of My Dog’s Place, welcoming in new dogs and their owners to become part of our family. Whether your pup needs training, daycare, or playtime, Marge and her team invite you to let your dog grow in a space that offers true support.

Community answer · Barbara Costas · 2019-09-21

It's around $30.00 per day but the daily rate declines based on how many days in advance you purchase.

Community answer · Whitney Pope · 2019-09-21

I think its about $28 a day for 1 dog.

My Dog’s Place is NO place for your dog!! Stay far far away from this business! The owner, Marge is a liar. Back in our initial interview with her, I explained that our yellow lab has never been in a crate. She assured me that he would never be put into a crate unless it was an emergency situation. Flash forward to today, when I arrive to see my dog in a crate. Their explanation was that he was barking too much. That is completely unacceptable! If you are bothered by dogs barking, I am not sure why you are running this business. Furthermore, a month back, when I picked him up from school, his face was cut up and bloody. When I asked what happened, they stated that our 4 year old yellow lab was being aggressive. In four years, our dog has never attacked or been physical with anyone or animal. It was troublesome that not only did they fail to apologize but went so far as to blame my dog for his injuries. I can only assume this is because they do not want to be responsible for vet bills for his injuries. Do NOT take your dogs here!! Over the course of two years, my dog’s place has proved itself to be highly unprofessional and dishonest. You should not have to worry about a company lying to you and then blaming you for their own negligence. STAY FAR FAR AWAY!

We brought our young rescue dog to My Dog's Place for a 7 week Basic Obedience course this fall and it was an amazing experience! Marge was so patient with our wild child and we saw so much progress from week to week! She also made herself available before class and any time through email to answer questions about other behavioral issues not being addressed in the basic class. We will definitely be back for advanced classes in the future!
