We always bring our dogs to Villa La Paws for boarding when we go away. There is a much closer (mildly cheaper) daycare/boarding facility that we tried but honestly I'd rather drive a little farther and pay a little more to know my dogs are in good hands! I love that I can check in on them on the video cameras when I'm away (and I do, a lot!) and that they're not confined to a cage or an itty bitty room overnight. Also love the report cards at the end of the day, I always look forward to hearing how they did. And the dogs come home so tired, but in the best way possible! They have so much fun!
