Our commitment
Everything your dog needs, nothing it doesn’t!
Dear Dog Owner,
We know you love your dog, we love ours too. It’s an undeniable, do-anything type of love. And that’s why we were born from the dust of the many businesses that continue to fail your pet.
The owner of Dogslanding Play & Train has worked at many canine facilities, from Southern California to the great state of Texas. Her experiences have been quite awful, despite the constant love she has received from the amazing dogs she has worked with. She started this venture with the mission to change pet care for the better & to provide a service she would trust her own dogs with. The Dogslanding Ranch has been carefully built to increase a dogs quality of life. We are licensed and bonded. So when your best friend comes to us, you can sleep at night knowing you are leaving them in the most excellent care – and we can sleep at night knowing we’re providing it!
Boarding & Daycare
Give your canine the most enriching experience possible while you’re away!
The Dogslanding team firmly believes that your pet needs more than just supervision. Whether old or young, every dog deserves to use its mind and body to its fullest potential. We aim to please every breed, from your hunting dog to your mini doodle. With leisurely trail hikes around our 2.5 acres, structured play time, and naptime with frozen enrichment toys, we have what your furry friend needs! Certified trainers on site at all times. You can rest easy knowing your dog will not come home with any unwanted behaviors! Our motto and ultimate goal for your dog is to provide safety, stimulation, and socialization.

Training
The Dogslanding methodology relies on balanced training techniques.
When it comes to dog training one size does not fit all. That’s why the balanced approach is so useful. Combining behavior modification and positive reinforcement, we customize your dog’s training package to achieve maximum results. This approach is fun, effective, and your relationship with your pet will flourish! We create tools that decrease bad behavior and reinforce good behavior. We enlist doggy psychology to provide a secure and stable environment where positive results can be achieved.
We take time to get to know your dog and pair the right tools and techniques to strengthen the bond between you and your canine. We offer Board & Train packages or private in-home sessions customizable to your family’s needs.

Testimonials
Our clients tell the difference
I was super nervous about sending Leo to board as I usually bring him with me while I travel but a friend of mine recommended Dogslanding and I couldn't be happier. I have nothing but positive things to say about Danielle and her team as they are genuine dog lovers, super communicative, and keep you informed on what's happening in your dog's world every single day with videos and pictures. Leo is very anxious and needs a lot of play and attention, and skipped right over crate training when he was a puppy so seeing Danielle work with him in a way that prioritized his learning style around crate training was mind-blowing. Leo had such a positive experience and made so many friends (four-legged and human) that not only will I be sending him back when I travel but during the week as well to simply play and train. Five stars for Dogslanding!
Jayel & Leo
Finding a talented trainer like Danielle has been an incredible experience! She has such skill with understanding and addressing various dog behaviors, and she helped us correct our dog's reactivity with structure and confidence building techniques. Our dog benefitted greatly from Danielle's board and train program, and even my family members commented on the improvement! My dogs have also spent time with Danielle and her team for fun daycare sessions and they come home tired and happy! I know they are safe in her care. Danielle is a talented, compassionate and dedicated professional and I highly recommend Dogslanding Co.!

My dog Max loves staying with Dogslanding when I go out of town! I love how Danielle sends lots of updates throughout the day, it definitely eases my anxiety being away from my dog. I would recommend dogslanding to anyone looking for trustworthy, experienced dog boarding!
Aleece & Max
I found Dogslanding Play & Train through a Facebook group where Danielle reached out directly to me after I posted a cry for help in finding a trustworthy and kind dogsitter to watch my fur baby while I was out of town for the first time since adopting her. We did a meet and greet and I immediately felt relieved and excited to have found someone who genuinely cares so much for our pets. My sweet girl can be a handful at times (she is very high energy rottie haha!) but Danielle does such a great job with her and AK just LOVES her. When I drop her off, she hops out of the car and it's like she completely forgets about me (which as a pet owner is totally heartbreaking but also soooooo reassuring!). Danielle also makes sure to send tons of updates and videos which I absolutely love 🙂 I would recommend Dogslanding Play and Train to anyone!
Celine & AK
Danielle and team give our pup the best time with the most thoughtful touches. She's so great at communicating and we always feel comfortable leaving our dog with her and her team!
Tara & Frankie
It is not an exaggeration when I say that Danielle and the Dogslanding Play and Train staff are literally the best trainers I’ve ever worked with. My pup has had anxiety and fear related aggression since he was a little over one year, and working with Danielle has allowed both me and my pup to feel more confident and at ease. I’m grateful for the help and support we’ve been blessed with 💖
Trisha & Gryffindor
We have a high energy working dog who is a bit wary of other dogs. Danielle and the Dogslanding family are extraordinary! They take such good care of our pup, and love him like one of their own. He has such a good time there, and has really improved in socialization. The property is great and the dogs get plenty of exercise and attention. After a few bad daycare experiences, it's so wonderful to see our pup happy to be dropped off to play at Dogslanding!
