Joyful Paws Hotel

I was so worried when leaving my cat Kyo but am so grateful that they took such good care of him. The staff is truly so amazing and cares for each pet!! They made my boy feel welcome and gave him the love needed to help him adjust. Mary was especially very kind and reassuring! I watched him from the live feed all throughout his stay and there and was very impressed with the cleanliness and care put into taking care of the cats by the workers. I would definitely book Kyo here again especially as it felt like a home away from home and made me comfortable leaving Kyo in Joyful Paws very capable hands.

We came for two night and needed a place for our sweet little Aussie so we could enjoy universal studios. Mary was so incredibly helpful and we knew after chatting with her our pup would be well loved. Drop off was easy, we had the ability to watch him on the live cam, and see how he was doing. We picked him up and he was so excited to see us but was tired so we knew he was played out. What a relief . I would recommend this place to anyone who needs a place for their pup to go. Best place ever!!

Joyful Paw has been absolutely wonderful for my dog, Zeus. I take him there for daycare while I’m working, and he’s always so excited to arrive — jumping out of the car ready to have the best day. The staff is amazing and truly cares about your pet. They’ve helped Zeus work through some big milestones, and it’s been great to see how much he’s grown and thrived because of their care and attention. I also love the fun events they host and always look forward to Zeus’s report card and photos — it’s such a great touch and really shows how much effort they put into what they do. Thank you to the Joyful Paw staff for everything you do for Zeus and all the other animals. Best team ever!

At first I was nervous about this place because my dog was nervous when I first started dropping her off. However, a year later, she gets so excited to see the staff & go to doggy daycare! She just needed time to adjust, and now I feel completely comfortable leaving my fur baby in their care. They have become part of Daisy's extended family, even recognizing her & saying hi when we run into them out & about Long Beach. When Daisy had an injury (she ran into a stick when I took her to a park), the staff was extra careful & helped re-wrap the bandage during her stay. They are also mindful of her dietary restrictions. My only comment is I wish they had a doorbell, because sometimes there's a bit of a wait by the door, but other than that, I have zero complaints. Joyful Paws is my go-to for my pup daycare needs. Don't hesitate to try them out!

Staff was super friendly and helpful. It was a first for my pup and they made us feel comfortable and secure. Will be using them on a regular basis. Ive been going here for over a year and continue to be impressed with the staff who look after our Ollie! oliver loves the staff and all his friends at Joyful Paws.

My dog stayed here for the first time this past week. I was very impressed with the professionalism of Joyful Paws and completely trusted that my dog was safe and well taken care of here. I was able to watch my dog during play time every day with the Wag Vision live cameras. I loved the daily report cards and photos! Also, she was given a great thanksgiving meal, a bath, nail trim, and goody bag upon departure. I recommend Joyful Paws to all my fellow pet parents! Definitely will continue coming here for lodging and maybe even daycare! They are also great with following COVID precautions - limited people in the lobby allowed, curbside pickup/drop off, wearing masks, etc.

I have boarded my Kitty and Natasha at joyful paws for years. The pets are cared for and are happy to go and then come home. It’s a great place for pet socialization, providing play time outside of there kennel. I like that they require medical shots to be up to date, bring personal food prepped and that leftovers are returned. It’s nice that there are consistent employees, knowing first names.
