Smart Paws Resort and Training 4735 Avenue A, St. Augustine, FL 32095

"As someone who has never had to board our dog, we were concerned about where to board our sheltie when we decided to take a family cruise as our dog is very skittish. After trying a couple days of daycare at another place further away, we got concerned that he wouldn't do well. After finding out about Smart Paws through a local advertising magazine, we decided to give them a call. After talking to one of the owners on the phone, she eased our fears and recommended bringing our dog by to check it out. We toured the facility and we were impressed by how clean the kennel area was. After the tour, we decided to use them to board our sheltie. During our cruise we didn't have an internet package so I can't comment on daily updates but when we went to pick up our dog, we were truly impressed how clean and groomed he looked. He was happy to see us and looked like he had been well cared for. I'd definitely use Smart Paws again and recommend them for any of your boarding needs and also their grooming services. Thank you for caring for our sheltie!"

"We got our handsome boy from these lovely people. We love him to bits. Thank you for Tyson."

"So glad we decided to board here! After 5 days boarding our boy usually comes home stressed, sick and weight loss. Not this time! He was groomed before pick up and he hasn’t ever been groomed so well, was his usual self and looks like he never missed a meal! We will definitely come back and won’t worry when we drop him off!"

"We are extremely happy we chose Smart Paws for our Biscuits training! In a matter of minutes Biscuit and I learned to behave and react appropriately! The trainers are very knowledgeable! The facility is very clean!!! A big shout out to Samantha and Meagan! Thank you!"

"Meagan & Samantha we’re wonderful! I brought my reactive dog in and within 40 minutes he was walking past and laying next to other dogs without any issues. I thought they would train him and then show me what to do, but they had me leading him the whole time and coached me through each situation which was great! So I know exactly what I need to do and when to help him reduce his anxiety and be a calm boy around other dogs. Highly recommend! No dog is beyond help, it’s the people who need to learn the most to help their dogs behave well."
