Only the very best for Dixie, the maltipoo extraordinaire, and she has gone to Upscale Puppy for 5 years. She loves Lupita, Ken and Sandra.

Upscale puppy is a wonderful "Doggy daycare" and we can't recommend it highly enough. Our two year old Sussex spaniel Stanley has been attending since 5 months of age and it is the highlight of his week!



Lupita is a soft spoken and gentle woman who has a real knack with dogs (she's pretty good with the doggy parents also) Stanley begins to get excited as soon as we near the Birch Bay turnoff on the I5 and by the time we pull into her driveway he's raring to go. After a full day of fun and activity at Lupitas's we pick up a very tired dog who is ready to nap.

from Stanley - "Upscale Puppy rocks!"

I cannot believe anyone would say anything bad about Upscale Puppy. It's the only place we take our spoiled pooch. Milo, my daughters Jack Russell, absolutely LOVES to go to Upscale Puppy! All we have to say in the morning is, "wanna go play with the doggies?" and he bolts to the car. When I pick him up, he's exhausted...if you know jack russell's, you know that is hard to achieve! Upscale Puppy is a very safe, clean, and wonderful place to take your small dog. No cages either...that is another request for Milo...he does not like to be confined. Lupita and Ken are passionate and caring people that share their lives with our doggies. Why would they dedicate most of their home to dogs if they didn't love them so much?

My 3 cairns have been going to Lupita for 6 years! I own a dog store and have always recommended lupita's. Her staff member "Sandra" is the most caring doggie person around!

Upscale Puppy is a safe, rewarding & loving environment that current customers have nothing but confidence in & where potential customers should look no further. I cannot recommend Upscale Puppy enough for anyone who has a small dog and needs for them to stay during the day, overnight or for an extended period of time.

WHAT????? We are the Yorkies ...

WHAT????? We are the Yorkies in charge when we visit Upscale Puppy! Our names are Augustus(Gus) & Dolce. We used to be 3 yorkies when our Boss Caesar was still alive & Lupita & Ken are our "mommy & daddy" when we're away from home. WE HAVE NEVER BEEN ABUSED THERE! We are luved a bunch & along with others are "high priority" with great care& Mommy Lupita doesn't miss a thing!

I'll add a footnote here to our pups testament. When we had to put Caesar down (almost 16 yrs old) we were devasted that our condo developer would not allow us to bury him there. I was so distraught I was at a loss since we've only been here 4 yrs & are still learning the "ins & outs" of this area. I called Lupita because I knew she & Ken would have a suggestion. They sure did... Ken went right out & made the first area of a CEMETERY at Upscale Puppy!!! These individuals that some disparage, are sent from above for us! Our Caesar resides peacefully there so we all can visit. I can't imagine leaving our little boys anywhere else when we have to leave without them. God bless them & their business!

I have never heard an unkind word about ANY other business from them, my boys love them both as is obvious when they run up on the porch from the car, & we will be forever grateful for their care & kindness!

Well rumor has it that someone was trying to spread bad reviews about Stingers favorite place other then her own house. So instead of letting the bad reviews spread I thought I would start to spread the good things about Upscale Puppy. This place is more then just a place to drop your dog for the day of socializing. It is a place where the animals are treated like they are the ruler of the house. The area for the dogs to run in outside is safe & clean. Also the overnight boarding option is also a bonus. What better then to know that if you have to leave your dog that it's getting the same treatment and care while you are away. Without a doubt no one should be worried about the care or attention that the animals receive at Lupita's Upscale Puppy.

My name is Dakota and I am a VERY high maintenance pug and so is my sister Sicily. We both need special medication every day and special food too. Lupita is the ONLY place my mom will leave us because my mom loves and spoils us SO much she doesn't trust anyone else to take care of us except Lupita. In fact, she would probably never go anywhere if it weren't for Lupita's daycare. Also, we don't like most people but we walk right in the door when we get to daycare in the mornings and trust me, if we didn't like it there we would let our mom know!! We can be very loud and barky when we aren't happy! My mom told us she thanks God everyday that she found such a loving safe place to leave us where she never has to worry ever! Thanks Lupita!

The person who wrote such a hateful review obviously doesn't know Lupita and her husband Ken. They run a very competent, loving, personal business. My dogs love going to their house and I have seen first hand how caring and loving they are towards all the dogs at their Day Care. I have known Lupita for about 10 years and my dogs have spent many many hours with her. She doesn't own big dogs and would never, never kick a dog. She goes out of her way to help out her clients when they are in need, even going and helping a person find her dog when it ran away from a veterinarian's office. it is too bad that this person feels the need to run down someone business with such untrue statements. Upscale Puppy's is an outstanding place to take your dog. They will thank you!!!!

Mama Luptia takes wonderful care of us. She grooms us, gives us our meds and takes extra special care with Brother Brandy who is 17 years old. She love to play with all the other puppies, especially when Lupita has a birthday party for our doggie friends. We get to run and play in the big fenced in secure yard and pop our heads out the windows of the doggie cowboy town that Ken built us. We love our Lupita and always look forward to our visits. xxoo Brandy, Morgan & Tisha

My Max has stayed with Lupita at Upscale Puppy several times when my husband and I go away on vacation. In fact, if it was not for Lupita I would never have found and rescued my dog Max! I will be forever grateful to Lupita and her love of all dogs for helping me to adopt Max as he has been the biggest blessing to our lives! Max LOVES going to Upscale Puppy and is always so exhausted when he comes home because he spends his time playing and running around the huge outdoor area having so much fun! Max loves going to see Aunty Lupita and he even stayed there for a week when we first adopted Max as a 6 month old puppy while my husband and I prepared our home for him. I know I can trust Lupita and Ken with Max and never have a doubt that they treat all the dogs with so much love and respect! I only wish ALL doggie daycares were as wonderful as Upscale Puppy! It's unfortunate that people use the internet to spread such awful rumours for their own personal gain. Shame on you for abusing the use of reviews, I only wonder what kind of human being you are and how YOU treat your dogs and other human beings!!

My cocker Molly has stayed with Lupita at Upscale Puppy for several years while we are away on vacation. My dog has always received good care, including special treatment for any medical concern. I am confident in leaving my dog with Lupita and applaud her, her husband, and staff for being so devoted to the dogs they care for. My dog goes into her home happy, with a wagging tail, and leaves the same way.

WOW!! Amazed that someone would be so small as to write untrue stories about someone and their business when clearly they don't know what they are talking about. CamilleSte and Leah certainly can't have been to this daycare as there are no large dogs allowed. Maybe they have confused this with another Doggie Day Care that is in the area? I have been taking my SMALL DOG Sami to Lupita at Upscale Puppies for over 6 years and have the utmost respect for Lupita and Ken. My dog Sami is very happy to go there and has been one of the many spoiled pooches. She is taken care of and when I pick her up after work is in no way displaying any negative behavior.

Who ever you are you obliviously don't know what your talking about and are a mean and vengeful person making untrue statements. We have taken 4 of our dogs to Lupita over the last 9+ years. She does not own any large dogs, never has. She would never kick or harm any dog I will put my life on the line with that statement. In fact she has always gone above and beyond to take care of our boys as she does with everyone's dogs. She kept our little Derby alive until we could get home to put him to rest. She and Ken are compassionate, loving, trustworthy, respectful and outstanding human beings. We'd all be so lucky to live up to their standards. Stop your ugly rumors and do something positive with your time.

I have been taking my dogs to upscale puppy everyday for two years and would recommend Upscale Puppy to anybody with small dogs. There are no kennels, no leashes, and they are treated as if it was their own home. It seems obvious to me that Camille Ste is a competitor or has upscale puppy confused with another doggy daycare. Anyone that knows Lupida knows that her dogs are rescued King Charles Cavaliers.

I've already told my best friend about this place, about Lupita kicking other people small dogs whenever they get into a tiff with her four large dogs. Greedy woman who is bad mouthing her competition on her web site. Unprofessional.
