A Dog's Day Out

Our pups were worn out and happy after! They always know their names, even if we haven't been in often. Our lab can be overly energetic after a longer break and they do an amazing job of reacclimating him penning him as needed to calm down and keeping us updated.

We had to find a alternate boarding facility for our aging, anxious beagle, Buddy, and A Dog’s Day Out was just what we were looking for. They took great care of him, despite his neediness. They even posted several pics of him on Instagram throughout the week, and it was a relief to know he was comfortable. Thank you to the staff who did a fantastic job.

We can always count on them to care for our dogs when we have to leave town. Never any concerns here and truly some awesome staff!

I've been on the lookout for a reliable doggy daycare, as I've been to others in the DMV area, and haven't had the best experiences. Thank goodness for A Dog's Day Out! Right when you park in the lot, there is a sign on their door that pretty much says to be mindful if there is another family already inside waiting to check in/out. Not only does that help with dogs who are more anxious when they see new dogs, but this is also great when it comes to health precautions. Their layout is divided by small and large dogs, which is great to control temperament. Their facility is also very clean and I constantly see employees mopping the floors and cleaning, which is much appreciated. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable - it's awesome when they recognize our dog and say hello by his name. I've taken my dog here for daycare and boarding, and he always comes back exhausted, but extremely happy. Every time I drop him off, he doesn't look back to say bye, as he's always so happy to go to daycare. Prices are extremely fair here too, and you can buy daycare passes, which is useful for those who need to go into work on a daily basis. I highly recommend everyone check out A Dog's Day Out in the Van Dorn/Eisenhower area - you won't be disappointed!

Highest recommendation for dog care in the DMV. I’ve lived in DC for almost 20 years and have never experienced better professionalism and sincere love for dogs. The team is so caring and truly get to know your pup. 100 stars.

I am so grateful for ADDO - Van Dorn!! I have been bringing my dog here for 7 years for both daycare and boarding. I never enjoy being separated from my precious pup but I know she's in very good, caring, and attentive hands with the team at ADDO. For example, while my dog was boarded a team member noticed blood in my dog's urine. I received a phone call to notify me. I was able to connect ADDO with my vet. An ADDO team member collected a urine sample from my dog, transport it to my vet, receive medication from the vet, and started my dog on medication to treat a UTI. Obviously this was above and beyond what I could have possibly expected. This team is amazing and I have to much gratitude for having this safe and trusted partner as part of my doggy support system. Thank you ADDO - Van Dorn team!!

Our pup loves this place! He goes there for both daycare and boarding and has never had an issue. Staff know all of the dogs by name and are super responsive. We love having such a trustworthy place for our dog to stay while we are out of town.

Brought my grandoggy Esco for an evaluation and a day visit and he loved it, he had lots of fun. Everyone was very nice and the place is very spacious and very clean and also the prices are reasonable.

My dogs absolutely love going to daycare here. They always come back with big smiles and tuckered out! They spent the night recently and had a blast as well! I love that this location has a staff member on site during the night to ensure the safety of the dogs and facility. Only complaint is that my pups do come home a bit stinky so cleaning practices in the dog yards could be improved- but it’s not the end of the world for me, I know they won’t smell like roses after a day or play!

We've taken our golden retriever here twice for a grooming session and they always do a great job for a reasonable price. We've never used the daycare so can't speak to that service.
