Playful Pets

While traveling in Columbus, we sought a safe place for our goldendoodle, Sophie, while we visited the Capital Building. We spoke to Bri and she graciously agreed to take our girl the next day. They were so kind and sweet to us and our baby. I think our pup had a really nice time with them. One thing that really impressed me was I had already told her that we were from out of town, but she still told me that for the first day the dogs are there, it is free. I mentioned again we were from out of town and she still said that we didn’t have to pay for the first day and that we could come back again at a later date and pay. So, she basically they took care of our baby at the last minute and did not charge anything for it. We were beyond impressed! The facility is near the Capital building in the downtown area. The inside of the facility was very clean and well-maintained.

My dog and I love the Playful Pets team! I have taken him to day camp and boarded him a couple times, each time has been a great experience and I know that he’s getting the royal treatment while he’s there. The staff is very friendly and communicative, and he runs right up to them every morning we arrive. I recommend Playful Pets to everyone who asks!

Our rescue dog is timid & fearful. We were even more so when boarding him for the first time. What an amazing experience! Everyone was caring, attentive, & helped slowly socialize Finni. They were exceptional in sending us photos & short clips of our boy throughout his stay. Everything was always fresh & clean. Staff took time to allay our concerns and tell us how they address each issue we thought of. On a scale of 1-10, Playful Pets, their owner, Steve, & every one of his wonderful staff rates a 20! Playful Pets, as you know, we are very protective. Each of you were so kind & helped us get over our worries and anxiety over boarding our little boy. You took exceptional care of him and every other dog as if they were your own. We are beyond happy & look forward to a long relationship with our new "family"! We would highly recommend them.

Just beware and pay attention to your dog after being here ! Since the new owner has taken over and they have gotten rid of the all the wonderful people who where here for years and brought there own people to work here these dogs are not taken care of , they are missing meds and being hit kicked and sometimes not being fed ! Just be aware because this new owner only cares about money along with all his new hires he brought with him ! This has been going on for a few months now protect your fur babies

Amazing staff and great facility. They've got an area for tired and/older dogs that don't want to be in the excited zone. I've been going for years and will drive the 30 mins across town every time. My pup is really anxious going to the kennel, but not playful pets, she pulls the leash to go in.

Genuinely some of the best staff I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. I have severe anxiety about boarding facilities and Owen went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and Grimm had the time of her life. I got daily updates even though I was out of service for the majority of her stay. Steve was also in communication with me and sent me photos. Grimm had the best time and I’ve been begging her dad to let me get her a sibling ever since we left. 20/10 stars will be using them for future stays.

Playful Pets was incredible with my dog, Dario, during his recent boarding stay! He’s a playful golden doodle with a lot of energy, and the staff made sure he had plenty of fun and social time. I could tell he felt comfortable and cared for right from the start, which really put me at ease while I was out of town. I loved getting updates and knowing he was getting both playtime with other dogs and one-on-one attention from the staff. Dario came home happy and relaxed—thank you, Playful Pets, for taking such good care!🌈🐾
