The Big Backyard - Denver, Colorado

I have used the doggie day care and boarding services at The Big Backyard since 2000 when I got my first Westie pup, Duffy. Over the last 24 years, I have had eight different dogs of 3 different breeds enrolled at The Big Backyard.

The founders and active hands-on owners, Micah and Tracey, are knowledgeable, well educated in canine behavior and health issues, and very caring.

The staff members at The Big Backyard are all well trained and obvious dog lovers. Everyone is vigilant to make sure that the dogs under their care are always under their personal observation and that the facilities are always clean. Several key members, including my favorite person, Tim, been there for years, which speaks highly of management.

The owners and their staff have celebrated my new puppies and mourned the passing of my senior dogs. This place feels like family. I would not trust any other place with my cherished dogs. 💕🐾🐾💕

This is by far the best dog daycare around Denver. You know this is the best Doggy Day Care around when my dog is wagging his tail from the moment, I drop him off, to seeing the video feed on the camera and is still wagging away. The staff are just simply, the best. They are easy to work with and understand my pet’s needs. We always take our dog here whenever we go on vacation, we feel at ease when he is here for multiple days. I highly recommend the Big Back yard for all your pets daycare needs.

I've been very impressed with the with of the facilities and service at The Big Backyard - it's the only place I trust with my pup's care. She returns from daycare consistently happy and tired! She especially likes playing in the little pool when it's hot out. The entire staff is friendly and helpful - I highly recommend them.

I cannot say enough good things about TBB!! I've been taking my dog here for a year now and have boarded him once so far. I did a lot of research and tours around Denver for the right place for my pup.. and BY FAR this was the best place, hands down. The energy, attention to detail, and genuine care the staff bring everyday is incredible. Tracy spent time out of her own day to get to know me and my dog when we first joined. They only accept on-going day care dogs for boarding and clearly show that safety is the number 1 priority. The facility is clean, temperature controlled, and all around the BEST place to send your pup!! Thank you for a year of great service TBB! Here's to many more

FIVE STARS - only because more are not available. I have a SDIT (service dog in training) and the Big Backyard has been an awesome ally in helping him to get good exercise - socialization and even a bath and nail trim. The staff at Big Backyard truly care about their work and the dogs. The facility is ALWAYS immaculent and last but certainly not least, Tracy and Tim are ACES - just to hear them talk about what they do and the care they take for each dog that comes to play, socialize or be groomed. Oh - and they are coneniently located and soooo economincal. So glad I do not have to imagine a world without the Big Backyard.

I've never met anyone more dedicated to dogs than Tracy and her staff here. The Big Backyard is a safe, respected and FUN place for you to take your dogs for daycare or overnight services.
Book overnights WELL in advance, as the place is small and committed to giving dogs individual attention. They fill up quickly for overnights, holidays and weekends especially.

Stop your search for a doggy daycare. The Big Backyard is the best you will find! I myself have sent two dogs here and been visiting Tracy and her friendly staff since I was kid with my parents dogs (who also send their dog here). The staff at TBB is friendly and always happy to answer any questions or concerns. After I pick Arrow up I know he had a good day cause he curls up on the seat and sleeps the entire way home (and the remainder of the night). I live in Parker and work in Commerce City but I would without a shadow of a doubt drop off Arrow regardless of where I worked. I trust Tracy and her staff to take of my dog and ensure his day is filled with fun and safety. I have never once had any problems with them or any of the other dogs at TBB. I have hired Tracy to help train myself and Arrow. I continually bombard her with questions when I pick up the dog, and she always comes through with training tips and suggestions. Arrow loves his Tuesdays and Thursdays cause he knows where he gets to go. For as long as my wife and I own a dog they will be attending The Big Backyard.

My dog has been going there for day care and for boarding and she loves it! This is a great, locally owned and operated business. Give them a try.
