As someone whose family also owned a dog daycare/boarding facility, I can say this place is top notch!I'm so grateful that I found K9cation for my Dutch Shepherd, Luna. From daycare/boarding to training & classes, we've tried it all and would highly recommend the facility to anyone looking for the above services. Not only do I feel like they treat Luna as one of their own dogs, I have peace of mind knowing that their employees are qualified trainers.They have so many offerings to add-on to boarding/daycare. I love that they are constantly posting photos on Facebook - even on vacation I can see how much fun Luna is having.

K9cation was recommended for large breed grooming services and my dogs love going for their monthly spa day. I recently needed to board them for 14 days and l was nervous because this was a first for us. I'm so glad I was able to board them at K9cation the dogs loved their stay, they made 4 legged and 2 legged friends there. The daily picture helped a lot to reassure me they were being well taken care of. I scheduled a few play days (daycare) a month so they can continue the relationships they built with staff and pupsThank you again!

We have had a wonderful time at K9cation for our training classes so far! We have dabbled in obedience, barn hunt and agility so far and have enjoyed each instructor. Everyone has been very kind and welcoming, Gimli and I can't wait to take more classes!

K9cation is the best! I have a slightly anxious dog, and I wasn't sure how she would react at doggy daycare, but she loves it here! She is so excited to go, and she absolutely loves the treats she gets throughout the day. She loves it so much we have been even able to board her for the weekend, which I would have never even thought possible with my dog. Also, their prices cannot be beat. I cannot say enough good things about this place!

I'm so glad we found K9cation! I love all the drop-in courses, so Archie can try everything they offer. Barn hunt, agility, nose work, daycare with adventure run... you name it. And of course the pool in summer. Dogs (and their people) are having so much fun at K9cation!

K9cation is the best boarding facility I have ever used! It’s clear all staff members care so much about each dog. They offer so many enrichment activities and my pup always comes home tired and happy—ideal! During her latest stay, my pup got ecollar training from Brooklyn and I’ve been so impressed by what they were able to teach her in 1 short week. K9cation is the best!

I have two Labs who absolutely love K9cation. They have gone for doggy daycare and boarding and have done training sessions for leash walking and recall. The facility is clean, the yards are huge, the offerings expanisive, and the trainers/staff are knowledgeable and top-notch. They update so frequently that I literally have more photos of my dogs' vacation than my own. It really gives peace of mind when you see what your dogs are up to.I can't even begin to express my gratitude to K9cation for making me feel like I can go on vacation without worry. Knowing my babies are safe and cared for while I am away (and that they'll be knocked out for 3 days after I get home ?) makes it possible to truly relax.

We left our dog here for the 3 week puppy training while we were out of town and we were very happy with it. He learned leash control, eye contact, and many different obedience tricks. It was at a great price point too, would 100% recommend over just boarding a puppy.

We took our puppy, Milkshake, there for positive play. We wanted to check out k9cation before we boarded her there. Let's just say she had a blast! She played hard and even swam in their huge swimming pool. The room that they have for the dogs to play is huge and it's clean. The boarding facility is really cute and we felt relieved that she would be boarding there. The staff were awesome and Brooklynn answered all of our crazy questions. To be honest, we had fun also. Playing with the dogs was so enjoyable. I told Brooklynn she should have charged us for having so much fun. It is a 90 minute drive for us to get there but it was worth it. We will be back with Milkshake before she is boarded to have some more fun. Thanks again!

We’ve boarded and used the daycare services for our dog at a handful of facilities throughout Denver. K9cation is in an ENTIRELY DIFFERENT LEAGUE—we feel so fortunate to have found them.We've recently completed K9cation's board-and-train program, and we'll continue to be patrons for boarding, daycare, and training classes. We’re so happy with the progress our dog has made in training, and looking at the myriad of daily photos posted to Facebook while he’s in daycare and/or boarding provides us with peace-of-mind you can’t put a price on. I urge you to look at the K9cation Facebook Page to see daily updates of the dogs running, fetching, wrestling, and swimming. My wife and I honestly feel guilty bringing our dog home at the end of the day--he has such an incredible time at this facility.The amount of SPACE the dogs have at K9cation is unparalleled. At other facilities, dogs spend most of their day ‘on top’ of each other--and most of that time is spent in a large room on a concrete slab. At K9cation your dog has what seems like acres of outdoor space to roam, sprint, play with their friends and/or toys, or separate themselves if they prefer some alone-time.If your dog enjoys swimming, K9cation has an actual pool for them—not a wading pool, an actual 3-4 ft. deep pool. Our dog learned to swim and learned to LOVE swimming here. His favorite part of summer daycare is swimming with his friends and collecting tennis balls in the water.Kelly and her entire staff are true ‘dog-people’ and will treat your dog like it’s their own. They DO consistently supervise and curb unwanted behaviors, but they also ‘let dogs be dogs’, which we feel is important given the expectations we have of them at home.Sounds expensive, right? WRONG. Despite everything I just walked through, K9cation is more economical than any of the other facilities that we’ve used in Denver, and you’re getting SO MUCH MORE for your money.I you live in the Denver area, K9cation may SEEM a bit far away, but I promise its worth the drive. Once you're north of Commerce City, there's almost no traffic. It's just 20 minutes on wide open 'country roads'. I'll take that over gridlock any day.I'd give K9cation, Kelly, and her staff 6 stars if possible.

This training and care facility is top notch. I have been to a few and by far K9cation far exceeds the expereince I have had elsewhere. I will not take my pups anywhere else. I have a headstrong beagle and the team here was able to train him without issue and I consistenly get compliments about how well trained he is. If you believe in training that uses positive reinforcement this is your place! You will not be disappointed I can assure you! I have also been thrilled with their daycare and boarding as well.

Our dogs Frank and Nancy just finished their first stay at K9cation and we couldn’t be happier! My husband and I loved looking at the daily photos of the pups, we could just tell they were in great hands. I got a quick tour when I arrived; the grounds are well kept and it’s obvious this family really loves what they do! We will absolutely return whenever we can’t the nuggets with us.

K9cation is the best!!! So affordable and has so many amazing activities available for your pup. My high energy boy has the time of his life and it's clear the team really goes above and beyond. Now that I know K9cation exists, I can't imagine boarding anywhere else.

The best boarding location by far is K9cation! I can vacation myself with ease knowing that my four legged family member is being cared for by an establishment that truly has a passion for dogs. I love that K9cation post pictures! I can see that my dog loves it there. K9cation is the best!!

Our pup Bamba just got back from his first time boarding at K9cation and we couldn't be happier with the patience and support from the team of Kelly, Steve, and Jaimie. I had lots of questions and they made sure to provide me with all the answers and support I needed. The pictures were incredible and I was reassured that he was a safe and happy doggy all weekend.Bamba is especially afraid of swimming but likes to splash around occasionally. The photos of Bamba at the pool is truly the most adorable thing we have ever seen.So grateful to K9cation. The second photo is Bamba resting at home :) They get so much amazing playtime while they are there it is incredible.
