- Dogs Perfect LifeMy bichon, Jake, has been going since he was 7 months -is now 3 years - and dearly loves it. He goes for day care once or twice a week for the play and stimulation of being with the other dogs. I investigated other places, but no where else comes close to the care and attention that he receives here.
I call it "sport camp" when he boards - he comes back strong and buffed from the constant pl...
Read More On Citysearch TreeWoman 8/4/2009 - Skeptics now BelieversWe left our precious Havanese with the Hound Lounge for overnight boarding for a week as we traveled East to visit our daughter in college and couldn't take her with. We called and were told she was doing fine but until we returned home and saw her; one never knows. Our dog was very relaxed and in great shape. We knew instantly that she was well taken care of. I would highly recommend the SF ...
Read More On Citysearch LevinsonSF 5/6/2008 - Perfect for our somewhat neurotic pooch!We've tried several doggie day cares, and Hound Lounge is the only doggie daycare that recieved the approval of our two dogs. They love it there! One of our pups is very gentle and sweet but has severe sound phobias and can't be left at home alone for extended periods. We've tried other daycares but had bad experiences with her crying the whole way to center, and she even tried to escape one f...

The staff treat her with great kindness, and she's always happily tired at the end of the day. I've also boarded her there over several weekends, then ultimate sign of trust. Bring your pooch to the Lounge!
Read More On Citysearch mlfsf 2/1/2007 - Best of Breed Doggie Day CareGreat owners and staff who know every dog individually. I feel completely secure leaving my 80 lb. baby with them every day, knowing that he'll play and be well taken care of, rather than sitting around all day waiting for a dog walker to show up. Availablility of nail clipping and baths is also great. Nice little perks like remembering my dog's birthday with treats. I couldn't be happier. R...
Read More On Citysearch popmusicguy 1/31/2007 - Terrific doggie day careThe Hound Lounge is terrific. Ashley and Doug run a great business and hire very caring and diligent staff. They pre-screen all new dogs to insure that they will fit at the Hound Lounge and then provide personal attention to insure that each dog's individual needs are met. I can drive up to the Hound Lounge any time of the day and it is quiet--no dogs barking or howling--just the sound of paws...

She likes it here as much as she can like any place and that's saying something for Ms. Timid. They have a separate small dog area, yay! Professional, clean, safe, fun environment and caring, responsive owners/staff. On-site grooming - it's the best Sadie's ever looked. Plus boarding services (with ...
Read More On Citysearch verveinite 1/25/2007 - Happy place for dogs!We've been sending our dogs to SF Hound Lounge for the last six months, and they really seem to love it there.
It's clear that all of the staff really love animals and really enjoy their work and my dogs seem really attached to at least 2-3 members of their staff.
Otherwise their facility is heated during winter and airy during summer. Finally their overnight boarding is excellent, one of...
Read More On Citysearch andrew_littlefield 1/24/2007 - A Home away from HomeWhen my dog Jagger first started going to 'The Lounge' he was 3 months old and got to hang out in the 'Small Dog Area'. Being a Swiss Mountain Dog the staff knew that it was only a matter of time before he was one of the bigger dogs in tha facility. They took the time to take Jagger out of the small area and into the big dog area so he could start to get use to hanging with the big guys. Not only...
Read More On Citysearch metthouse 1/20/2007 - Simply The Best!!!I recently relocated to the West Coast and was nervous about finding a safe and fun daycare for my dog. My nerves were quickly settled once I met Ashley & Doug, the great owners of this top-notch facility. I appreciated the fact that they wanted to meet my dog to make sure that SF Hound Lounge was the right place for him. The entire staff is friendly and more importantly LOVES dogs! They show...
Read More On Citysearch pprestin 8/24/2006 - Best Dog Daycare in the City - bar none !I interviewed several doggie daycare businesses in and around San Francisco before selecting SFHoundlounge. None of the others could compare to what these folks offer. On a daily basis they must have an average of 30-40 dogs in thier facility, and yet when you walk in the front door you can't smell dogs! The place is spotless, clean, and plenty of fresh air. They are constantly cleaning, picking ...
Read More On Citysearch bill94114 6/26/2006 - The Best in Doggy day care!My little dog Mochi has been going to SF Hound Lounge for almost a year, and we both love it! Everyone is so nice and treats her like thier own pet. I'm always informed on her behavior and who she played with each day, as well as anything new I should know about. She's never had any issues with the other dogs in day care, and SF Hound Lounge knows how every dog interacts with others. I even got...
Read More On Citysearch michellina27 5/31/2006 - DOGGY DAY CARE!This is one of the best places to get your dog to stay at a day care, they treat your dog extremely well and the workers there are extremely nice to the dogs. Not only do they babysit your dogs, they manage to even teach them some manners too! My dog became much more sociable with other dogs and it was great to see her getting along with some instead of barking at them like crazy.

They really show a sincere interest in him. Its not like he is just another dog. I appreciate their proffesionalism and screening process. Lets face it, dogs are a part of the family for many of us, and feeling like they are in a secure and safe environment is paramount.
The staff there is great a...

I called SFHL asking if I could view their facility at a convient time for them, to see if I was interested in taking my dog there. I was very rudely told that was not an option, but I could pay $20 for my dog interview (necessary if I want to enroll my dog in daycare there) and view the facility at that time. I explained I wasn't ready to enroll, just comparison shopping. They wouldn't let me...
Read More On Citysearch nic3309 2/7/2006 - Puppy HeavenSF Hound Lounge staff is AMAZING! My small dog Renzo leaps out of the car when we arrive. The seperation of the big and small dogs is great. The staff are very caring - and provide specia attention to the dogs needs. Also lots of reinforcng of good dog manners. I have to relocate to NY and the hound lounge will be the toughest thing to replicate.

Read More On Citysearch Citysearch User 11/11/2005 - Individualized Play TimeAfter his first day at the Hound Lounge, our puppy came home totally wiped out. The owner advised that if he had had to much playtime, that they could adjustment his schedule. We agreed that our puppy would probably benefit from a two hour nap in the afternoon. Now with his nap, he now gets just the right amount of playtime and arrives home tired but happy. Just what we wanted from day care. ...
Read More On Citysearch suzannehering 8/16/2005 - My dog would leave me and live here if she couldIn a nutshell, the Hound Lounge is clean, spacious, friendly, and convenient (in terms of hours open). On top of that, the staff really take the dog's welfare into consideration: dogs are kept in appropriate play groups, they get naps when appropriate, the dogs are fed/not fed according to the owner preference, they have toys to play with, and they are watched for any potential signs of illnes...
Read More On Citysearch lindertke 8/3/2005 - nutters for the loungeI know I love the hound lounge but my opinion does not matter nearly as much as my two beagles who are NUTTERS about the lounge. My dogs can be stoic but they wag their tails and act goofy to everyone there as well as all the other dogs. The best unexpected bonus is that they bump into doggy chums from the lounge at the parks on weekends and go beserk.
Read More On Citysearch hannebarnes 7/29/2005 - TLC for your dogThe staff is excellent - caring, friendly and accommodating - and cleanliness is a priority. They take a dog's special needs into account (ours is a greyhound). We are very lucky to have found this day care. We know our "baby" spends the day having fun and being loved (in between naps).
Read More On Citysearch kballoun 7/10/2005 - Great dog care and boardingGreat and friendly staff. Very concerned about dogs and making sure that the dogs are appropriately cared for.
I feel very safe leaving our dog with SF Hound Lounge and know that she's well taken care of.
No kennels or cages!
Also offer grooming which is a plus for anyone with a busy schedule.
Would recommend to anyone.

The staff there are awesome with dogs and Ruth Ann loves every one of them. Your dog will love you even more after a day at the Hound Lounge.
Read More On Citysearch stomsf 7/6/2005 - SF Hound LoungeTerrific place for our Shih Tzu, Peety, to play with his buddies and slumber party when Mom is on travel. Care is loving and tender and facility is immaculate. Big deal is that the dogs are not caged, but separated by size for play time. Peety loves going to the hound lounge- tail wagging all the way
Read More On Citysearch peety9 7/3/2005 - The best doggie daycare!"The Lounge is a wonderful place to take your loved pet. Dogs are 'interviewed' to make sure their behavior will fit into the group of well behaved, fun loving dogs. The staff cares for your baby as if he/she were their own. My Sophie runs to the front door to get in to play with her friends, and I know she has had a good day of fun when she zonks out early in the evening. Your dog will love it h...
