Downtown Dogs

🦴🦴🦴🦴🦴 out of 🦴🦴🦴🦴🦴 bones!!! I absolutely love Downtown Dogs and take my dog to both the Palo Alto and San Jose locations. The care and communication are consistently excellent at both. The team is clearly trained in dog behavior and takes the time to observe and work with each dog. As the owner of a restricted breed, that patience and experience has made all the difference for us—something I haven’t found elsewhere in the Bay Area. A special shout‑out to Monique, who works across both locations. Seeing her when dropping my dog off for boarding is always reassuring. She clearly knows each dog by name and temperament, and the care she gives—along with the way she leads and supports the team—really stands out. The updates, photos, and enrichment activities (including adorable birthday celebrations!) are fantastic. Downtown Dogs is a place I trust completely with my pup, and I’m incredibly grateful for the entire team.

I tried out a few doggie daycare places before finding downtown dogs. My dog is super friendly but very shy. They understood her and helped her feel comfortable and have fun! It also has made me comfortable leaving her at downtown dogs. The staff are all amazing! Now she gets excited when we turn on the street and she’s pulling me in to go play! Highly recommended downtown dogs!

Great place for your dog. Warm and enthusiastic staff. Great dog friends for your pal to play with all day. Great food and treat options if desired. My dog comes home happy and well exercised. And, you can even get a bath/grooming while your dog is there. Check them out!

My dogs love it here! They take excellent care of my two. I was really happy about the screening process. As they take extra care to vet all of the dogs and ensure a safe environment. I love the option for add-ons, the newsletter, and the fun seasonal photo opps. This is truly as good as a human daycare, and I’m so happy to have found Downtown Dogs!

My dog loves her daycare days here! She can be a bit nervous, but the staff and other dogs help her confidence, tire her out, and give her lots of love.

We are so impressed with Downtown Dogs Palo Alto daycare and the incredible staff and management. Knowing that we are sending our pup to a place where she will receive the best love and attention makes this such an easy option. At Downtown Dogs Palo Alto we know she will be safe, well cared for, engaged, and encouraged. From the set up to the pick up- every call or email they are always so responsive and helpful. The best part is when our pup comes home- she’s exhausted. Truly a sign of a great day! And the fact she can’t wait to go back- a sure sign of a great daycare. We are so grateful to Downtown Dogs Palo Alto!

This is a great company. We love both their locations. I have a giant dog and she loves this daycare. They are very caring and devoted to the animals. Plus, when we get there, my dog is so excited that she doesn't even notice me leaving.
