About Paws Pet Resort
Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
Sawyer loves paws so much. We have done daycare, boarding (10 days while we went to Spain) we get baths done for him. We have done so much at paws and everything we’ve done there has been top notch. We have so much trust is everything they do. We are protective dog paw-rents and it’s nice to feel safe once we drop him off. He comes home tired from running around all day. Every employee loves our boy and we couldn’t recommend paws pet resort more! Thank you paws for everything!
We absolutely love Paws Pet Resort! Honey is always excited when we pull up, and he comes home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. The staff is so friendly and attentive, and you can tell they genuinely love what they do. One of my favorite things is how thoughtful they are about Honey’s personalized activities—it’s not just generic playtime. They really pay attention to his personality and needs, which makes me feel so confident leaving him there. Paws Pet Resort is clean, professional, and full of people who truly treat your dog like family. Highly recommend!
I felt very fortunate to have found this kennel while visiting from out of town. The staff are fantastic and my dog was happy. Don’t not hesitate to come here, even if its a little further its worth the drive. Easy access to the highway too if you’re headed to the airport. PS loved the daily updates thank you so much!
We’ve been taking our dogs to Paws for about 15 years now and every single one of them has absolutely loved it. Even after all this time, the reaction is always the same: the moment we pull into the parking lot, they’re practically dragging us through the door they’re so excited to get inside. That alone says everything. The staff is incredible across the board, and Matt, the manager at the Lake Forest location, is truly fantastic. What really sets Paws apart is the rapport they build—not just with the dogs, but with us as owners too. When we pick up, they always share how the day went, what our dog did, who they played with—it actually feels like they know our dog, not just their name on a chart. The pool party days are amazing—the photos and videos they share are priceless, and our dogs always come home completely wiped out in the best possible way. Their grooming services are also consistently good and incredibly convenient, which makes everything easier. After we moved, we tried a different daycare closer to our house, and the difference was immediate—in a bad way. Instead of being excited, it became a struggle just to get our dog out of the car. That told us everything we needed to know. Now, we drive past two other doggy daycares just to keep coming to Paws. If you’re looking for a place that your dog will genuinely love and that you can trust long-term, this is it.
We love Paws! I drive 20 mins to lake forest just to have my dog stay here for boarding instead of other places (if they ever decide to add another location in Tustin/santa Ana I’d be thrilled!). Our dog prefers people time more than dog time so we get her the private room with personal play time. They send us pictures and an update every day and she has a cozy bed and plenty of snuggles, potty walks and treats to make her (and me) happy and comfy :) one of the biggest things for me is the friendly, caring staff. I have two little kids and they are consistently helpful and accommodating. And we’ve been there enough times now that they know me and my dog when I call. I highly recommend 💛 Oh also their groomer is amazing and has really good prices!! Again I just wish they were closer to me :)
