We have been taking our German Shepard Husky to Smilin Dogs for 6 years and it has been a wonderful experience from the start. They are quick to respond to our last minute requests, always provide excellent care for our dog and her tail … read more

Our dog goes to the Dog Ranch twice a week and can't wait to be picked up. She waits by the window and starts shaking with excitement when she feels the van is close by, way before I can personally see it myself 😉 I know she is well … read more

Great customer service and my pups always seemed thrilled to go! I’m always confident my dogs will be well cared for at Smilin’ Dogs.

My boy Bailey loves Smilin Dogs. He can’t wait to get there so he can head to the Dog Ranch. Great staff, always friendly, professional and caring.

Love Smilin Dogs (as does my dog!). Took my last dog (Aussie) there beginning in 2009 – he loved it. Hiking, overnights, he never stopped getting completely excited when their van showed up. Our current guy is far more mellow (GSD mutt) … read more

Our dog loves going to the dog ranch! She know the drill now so she’s happy to see them when they come to pick her up and she comes home happy and tired. We’ve also boarded her with Smilin Dogs and know she’s in good hands while we’re away… read more

Kona loves going to day care! The staff are very caring and it shows when Kona gets excited when she sees her favorite people!

My dog loves Smiling Dogs! 💞

My black lab loves doggie daycare. She is so excited when we arrive and exhausted when I pick her up.

Our dog Texas has been going to smilin Dogs for over a year now and we are very happy with the care and service they provide. We are on a recurring schedule with bath and nail trim often requested. Couple of times she came back very dirty … read more

Wonderful! My dog loves going there as do we. The people are just the best!

My dogs know when it’s their SD day. They wait by the door, they leap into the van when it arrives, they have the best time, and they come home tired an dirty. Who could ask for more? 👍

Smilin Fogs is terrific!My Lab Bella loves her days at the Ranch

Friendly people and our dog seems to love it

Best place ever!

Great place to watch your dog! Super friendly staff, great with the dogs, different rooms for sizes/temperaments, pool on hot days and hikes wear out our energetic 2-year old shepherd mix!

I am very happy at Smilin Dogs! I have two dogs that go for daycare and/or overnight. They can't wait to get in the door which says a lot to me.....if my dogs don't like a place they let me know!!

Love this place!! The pup had fun playing with other fur babies. The staff are sweet, informative and sent the boy home with a report card of how he was throughout his stay!

my son is a wonderful chauffeur and Xander loves the day care

They are very friendly and also seem to love dogs very much in general. My dog loves it there.

These guys are great period. Don’t know how we’d make it through trips with peace of mind without them.

My puppy lives coming here, he doesn't even want to get in the car to go home. The people who work here are friendly and they love dogs. This is a great way to socialize your dog and get them some exercise when you have a busy day.

Smilin Dogs has been a life saver for me during COVID. Working in healthcare, it has been difficult to leave work on time or even operate within a normal schedule. Having a 4 month old Golden Doodle was overwhelming as well raising him … read more

Smilin Dogs has been simply amazing. Our maltipoo was very shy of other dogs and wouldn’t interact much. Everyone at Smilin Dogs has gone out of their way to help him get comfortable with other dogs and have constantly provided us with … read more

Cody dog like Smiling Dog... The staff is great!

All dogs go to Hea7en

Kona ( my pit mix) loves coming here. We use Both the daycare and hiking. She’s been coming here for about eight years now. The staff is great and Kona has a great time!

Wonderful place for your fairy friend.

Clean, well staffed, and well laid out with large areas separating the different sized dogs. Our pup seems to like going, and I think I'd be happy there if I were a dog.

My Golden Retriever loves to visit and play!

I tried many doggy daycares before landing on this one. I’ve now used them for years and their service and care is unmatched. They do charge a little more for it 🙂

Great place for dogs to play, hike and board! Really great staff too!

Great team, great care and an overall great experience for our dogs!

My boy has gone here since he was a pup and would stay overnight with the owner at his home. These guys have it down! My boy is now 10 and loves hanging with this crew

Her smile says it all! My pup always runs to the door and happy wiggles into the room to greet all her friends, human and dog alike.

A Happy Dog Is Loyal An Effective

My dog gets so excited when we pull into the parking lot here, she can barely contain herself. She likes both hikes and daycare. We are occasional users of the place and they are happy to get us in when they have room. Can usually get in … read more

My dog smilin

My dog goes to Smiling dogs since 4month old and loves it! I use both daycare and boarding services and never worry about my pup, since I know she is in good hands!

The pups love going here! Nice staff as well. Only take cash or check and need to work on their billing systems though.

My dog is always smiling whenever she sees the van outside our house for hiking pickups.

My malamute Uneh, love Smilin Dogs! He especially enjoys the hikes.

Our dogs love it here, and we love them for taking care of our furry babies, like they are their own. It's our dogs' second home and family. We couldn't recommended them more. Not too many dogs per handler, dog's are grouped per size, have … read more

Kevin is the best!! A real dog whisperer, right here in San Carlos. Highly recommend. Your doggies with thank you.

Great people, happy dogs.

After moving up the Peninsula, we needed to find a doggy daycare. I was initially bummed by this task because we loved our old place... After finding Smilin Dogs, any/all concerns were erased! They're very thorough, beginning with the … read more

I just love Smilin Dogs. Finally people that understand the importance of pets.

Smilin Dogs is awesome – our dog goes 3 days a week for doggy day care. He's super people shy, and the staff are all fantastic about making him feel comfortable as they get him back into his favorite place on earth, the big dog room. We'… read more
