What Reviews Say
137 reviews analyzedAnimal Care Centre-Lobo is a dual-purpose facility highly regarded for its grooming services (specifically Melissa) and its compassionate rescue/adoption work. While boarding clients generally report happy, tired dogs and reasonable pricing, there are significant concerns regarding unsupervised play and occasional staff rudeness. The adoption process is described as strict, which polarizes reviewers between those who appreciate the thoroughness and those who find it exclusionary.
