My dogs LOVE this place! They get so excited when we pull up and are happily worn out for a few days. They base playgroups off personality instead of size which works out great. We have also boarded with them multiple times and everytime I feel good about it! I love how they send pictures after every day. Thank you!

After sending my dogs to boarding and using the grooming, I would never use another facility. The compassion and caring is evident. The staff consists of trained professionals and animal advocates with the best interest of the dogs in mind. Even my high anxiety dog, Rusty, was calm. I highly recommend you try it for yourself. Imagine having a stress free vacation or even a whole day for yourself knowing your babies are safe! The peace of mind I have since finding this facility is priceless!

To go away to see my son stationed overseas I needed to board my dogs. A daunting task for two big boys not used to boarding. Paws Paradise Fur Life provided a safe and comfortable environment for my boys that I was able to leave and know they were loved just like at home. Daily emails and the most hilarious pictures of their play group interactions: the action shots were the best making me hover over my email to see the latest installment of the boys boarding. They received mani's and pedi's before I brought them home. Grooming with Carly is amazing! I cannot recommend Paws Paradise Fur Life enough. The staff are all dog lovers like me. I won't hesitate to book another trip now knowing I can leave the boys there.

My dog started going to PPFL when he was a puppy and now almost 2 he still loves it when he gets to go make friends. I can always count on him being extra sleepy when he gets home. He has a lot of energy so, it’s the best for when I have a long day at the office. The staff is always so sweet and I love the daily picture updates showing him having a blast.

one of the best places around! they give so much the love, care, and attention. Ive taken my dog here for 2+yrs for daycare and boarding. I now live in clearwater so daycare is elsewhere :( but when I need boarding, I still bring her here specifically. Not because of airport proximity (which is a huge huge plus), but because of the way they handle it. Overnight staff, cuddle sessions, treats and more. They also provide several pictures per day of the doggies playing and having a blast which eases my anxiety. I can clearly see in the pictures how much fun my dog is having :)

***RAVE!*** SEPARATION ANXIETY REVIEW - 1st Time Customer: My pup was stressed the first night I dropped her off but the overnight staff stayed with her to calm her nerves so she could sleep with some companionship. They slowly integrated her into group settings and she was able to enjoy the outdoor space. I received several photos each day and that eased my nerves tremendously! The staff was incredibly responsive to our WhatsApp message thread and I even received a phone call to discuss my pup’s first update. I know my dog’s mannerisms very well since we are inseparable and together 24/7. I posted several photos on this review but I can easily identify the sole picture from night 1 with her heightened anxiety look and pinned back ears. The subsequent photos are in sharp contrast and she’s visibly enjoying her new friends. We will absolutely be back for my remaining business trips! I highly recommend the facility and staff which are top tier! Background of Anxiety and Previous Boarding Facilities for Reference: My basenji pup had severe separation anxiety since day 1 of her adoption and it has not subsided when we are separated. My job recently required travel again and my 1st 2 business trips were an absolute nightmare dealing with the aftermath of previous boarding experiences. After the first trip, my pup left a different boarding facility with a bout of diarrhea requiring me to take her out every 2-3 hours for 2 entire days. The second trip ended with a very expensive late night emergency vet appointment due to anxiety induced colitis. She was so stressed that she lost 2.5 pounds in a few short hours and I rushed her to a 24 hour emergency clinic. (VEG Tampa was fabulous!) It was heartbreaking to see the toll my travel was causing my pup and I was beginning to consider a resignation if I couldn’t find a good fit. In addition to her severe anxiety, she’s a master escape artist that would rival Houdini. She’s escaped kennels, collars, harnesses, fences, chewed through her leash several times in seconds and has high prey drive. She tends to immediately run to the busiest street with the fastest cars to chase. As a result, I’m extraordinarily overprotective and terrified that unqualified facilities would not be able to board her safely. The staff at Paws Paradise Fur Life exceeded my expectations and threw me a lifeline. I’m very impressed by their business model as they are geared towards pet owners who are passionate about their fur babies happiness and well-being rather than stacking up small kennels and cramming as many dogs as possible into tight spaces. THANK YOU! <3

Paws Paradise always takes good care of my Murphy. I can tell from the photos that he is happy when he stays there. The staff is great! I drive 30 miles rather than finding somewhere else because I know that he is being treated well. I don't have to worry when I am away.

Carly from Paws Paradise took great care of my two cats while we were away! It is such a great comfort to have a pet sitter that you can rely on to watch your pets when you travel. She visited the house as requested and sent photos of the girls playing and having fun so that we would not miss them as much. I appreciate your professionalism and care! Thank you to the team!

I recently started taking my dog here for daycare and it has been an amazing experience! Every-time we pull into the parking lot, Tito gets excited because he knows he’s going to get a day with so many friends. He’s only 2 so has a lot of energy and they do what they can to help him burn it off. I know he can be a rowdy puppy but they always welcome him with a smile and so much love. I have nothing but amazing things to say about this place and their staff!!

Wow… I don’t have enough amazing things to say about Paws Paradise! This is my dog’s first time at doggy daycare, and of course I was nervous, but I am already at ease thanks to the amazing staff here.

I’m so glad I found this place! 😍 If you’re looking for a place to take your dog to for boarding or doggy daycare, I definitely recommend Paws Paradise!

A True Dog's Paradise! I can't say enough good things about Paws Paradise Doggie Fur Life! My pups have been going there since I first brought them home! From the moment I dropped off my pups, I knew they were in the best hands. The facility is clean, spacious, and incredibly well-maintained. It's clear that the staff truly cares about every dog that walks through their doors. My dogs comes home tired but so happy, If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and fun environment for your pup, I highly recommend Paws Paradise Fur Life. They go above and beyond to make sure your dog has a great time and feels loved!

I can’t express enough how life changing this daycare has been for me and my boys. Due to their histories, one of my dogs is extremely fearful of people while the other has a very short temper with dogs who are still learning manners/boundaries. After our first meet and greet, I was sold on this daycare and the women who run it. They are clearly knowledgeable at both recognizing dogs with behavioral quirks and implementing strategies so the dogs can be successful in a daycare setting, even with their limitations. Both my boys absolutely love the staff there (and that’s a BIG thing for my fearful boy) - and they are always posting the cutest photos or selling festive doggy apparel. Absolutely love and trust this daycare!

100%! PPFL is amazing and my dog loves it! He is able to socialize with other dogs and he worn out after his play dates. What I love most is how much they love my dog and how much my dog loves them. He literally runs in when I pull up every week. Well priced and conveniently locating near the airport for overnight boarding.

Augie and Daugie love staying at Paws Paradise Fur Life. They always receive special attention with all the other pups. Running around, not put in crates are the best for my boys. I don't crate them at home and we love we found a place that doesn't do that either. Thanks, PPFL!!! See you for our next vacation!
