I absolutely love this daycare. Kobe has been shown love since the day he walked in the door almost 2 years ago. He is an energized Black Labrador that needed that extra time at daycare to wear off some energy while I worked. The staff has been exceptional in regards to making him feel like it’s his second home and it is very obvious by their daily posts that he is having a great time. He is always excited when he arrives and definitely gets his workout for the day!
