Questions & answers

What people have asked about this business.

How much for 4 dogs ? Two would need to be kept away from other two.

Hi John, thank you for reaching out and we apologize for the delayed response. We have a few requirements that the dogs must meet prior to their boarding. Why don't you shoot us a message to see if they meet all requirements? Since you have four doggies, we can offer you a discounted rate. Hopefully we can help you for your next boarding need. Looking forward to talking to you. Thanks!

I have been taking my dogs here for daycare for several months now and my girls are always excited to go. Even my little timid terrier. And for the first time ever I boarded the girls while I was away on vacation. I was so nervous to leave them but Ali and team assured me the girls would have a great time and they did! They sent me pictures everyday so I could see my girls. This place is the best in daycare and boarding, I wouldn’t trust my girls with anyone else!

I cannot recommend Ali from YAY Doggy Daycare & Training Enough!!!! Ali has done an incredible job with my 9-month-old American Bully. From the very beginning, Ali has been patient, knowledgeable, and truly understood my dog's personality and needs. The transformation has been amazing. My pup is so much more obedient, well-mannered, and confident. Ali took the time to teach not only my dog but also myself and my family, making sure we understood how to reinforce the training at home. His communication, professionalism, and genuine love for dogs really set him apart. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about helping your dog succeed, this is the trainer to choose. I'm beyond grateful for all the hard work and dedication Ali has put into my dog. Thank you for helping my American Bully become the best version of himself! #YAYdoggydaycare&training

5 stars are not enough for YAY! The transformation of my rescued German Shepherd named Rivers has been a true miracle! While I do not know much of Rivers history, I adopted him around 18 months old! He was so timid and very afraid of men and yet his eyes were full of hope that he would be loved! I took Rivers to YAY to be assessed by Ali and within 10-15 mins, Rivers was letting Ali pet and love him! I knew right then that Rivers needed to go to YAY! Fast forward 6 months and let me tell you the amazing transformation in Rivers! He walks with confidence, he is not dog or human reactive, he allows people to touch and pet him and he enjoys playing with other dogs! But what makes me the happiest of all is to watch him run to Ali, Ibrahim and Han and love them! He trusts them and is so excited to see them! All 3 of them have an amazing gift and their love for animals is visible when you watch them interact with Rivers! Rivers has grown and blossomed into the sweetest boy and I have YAY to thank for helping him learn to trust but also respect them and other dogs! They have taken Rivers from a timid and fearful dog to a loving and friendly ball of love! I cannot say Thank you enough to them for all they have done to help shape and improve Rivers life! It is worth every penny! Rivers gets so excited to go to “school”! I am adding a photo of Rivers when I first got him and then a recent photo of him. Just look at the difference in his face and eyes.

We boarded our Malinois for 5 days while on vacation. We got updates daily, along with good communication on any questions we had. Overall, it was very good for our dog… he is new to us and we haven’t had much time to train and socialize him, so boarding him with all the other dogs was very helpful. Highly recommend this place.

Love love love this place. We took our dogs there for a weekened when we needed to go out of town and it was probably the best decision we made in that regard. They are kind, attentive, and have a great environment for dogs. Big backyard, a large air-conditioned enclosure for dogs to stay inside whenever they want, large area for playing and exercising, and plenty ot water all day and night. They also send you photos and videos EVERY DAY! Thank you Ali, and your brother, and your cousin, for taking care of Luna and Asal.
