Doggie Do Good

Doggie Do Good is a cage-free dog boarding and daycare facility in Arroyo Grande, CA, that also trains dogs on site. The approach is training-first, and boarding is described as a home-style stay rather than a row of runs. Dogs who like company spend time in a large grassy play yard, and dogs who prefer their own space can have the yard to themselves or with a trainer.

Services and amenities

• Cage-free and in-home style boarding
• Dog daycare seven days a week
• On-site training, including a Doggie Camp Review option for returning dogs
• Baths with shampoo, conditioner, and nail clipping
• Pick-up and delivery

What sets it apart

The Doggie Camp Review is the unusual piece here: dogs that have already been through the camp program can pick their training back up while they board, instead of just waiting out the stay. Small, medium, large, and giant dogs are all accepted. Bedding, blankets, toys, bowls, and leashes are provided, so owners mainly need to bring food and current vaccination records.

Grooming and transport

Baths are available during a stay and include shampoo, conditioner, and nail clipping. For owners who cannot make the drive to Summit Station Road, Doggie Do Good offers pick-up and delivery, which helps when a flight time or work schedule does not line up with a drop-off.

The facility is at 335 Summit Station Rd., Arroyo Grande, CA 93420. Hours run 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM, every day of the week.
