“We send both of our dogs here for daycare, training and boarding. Everyone is very accommodating, super responsive and friendly. I feel very comfortable leaving my dogs here, knowing that they are well cared for. Also, our dogs get so excited to be dropped off for daycare they don’t even give me a glance goodbye!”
–ERIN BAXTER
“This is such an awesome dog day care/ grooming place! Owner and all the staff are so friendly. They have quick response times on text, call or email (within the hour or less). They send me the cutest photos of my dog Maple throughout the day 🥰 Very affordable and reasonable pricing for both grooming and day care.”
–Kassie Pearson
“We started our journey with Lead the Way over a year ago when we moved to Delaware. We took our pup Bleu there for the board and train program which was excellent. Since then, we have used Lead the Way for all of our boarding and daycare needs. Fast forward to today, our boy had the BEST full grooming service to date! We won’t be going anywhere else! Thank you to Josh, Brittany and the entire team for always taking such good care of Bleu!”
