Where City Dogs Come to Play, Stay, and Shine
At Paws Play Downtown Cleveland, we know life in the city can be fast-paced—and that’s exactly why your Paws deserves a place that’s safe, structured, and fun, fun, fun. Whether you’re headed to work, traveling for the weekend, or simply need a little help keeping your dog active and engaged, we’re here to provide reliable, quality care that goes beyond the basics.
Our facility is located in the heart of downtown Cleveland, making it a convenient destination for residents and commuters alike. Founded by Air Force veteran Teressa Doaty-Johnson, our values-driven business was built on service, consistency, and joy. And it shows—in every tail wag, every private suite, and every happy reunion at pickup time.
