What Reviews Say
72 reviews analyzedAnimal House Doggie Bed & Breakfast is overwhelmingly beloved by customers, with 52 of 72 reviews giving 5 stars. The facility earns consistent praise for its large, clean play areas separated by dog size, genuinely caring staff who treat pets like family, excellent communication with photo updates, and owners who live on-site providing peace of mind. One isolated but serious incident involved a dog returning injured and sick, though the owner provided a detailed professional response. The single recurring complaint about lack of updates appears to be an exception rather than the norm, as most reviews praise their communication. This is clearly a trusted community staple with many multi-year repeat customers.

Worth noting
Dog returned injured (limping) and severely sick after boarding
“One of our dogs was limping and covered in diarrhea... Her back feet fur had to be shaved off because of the diarrhea stains. Her anus was swollen and skin burned from fecal matter.”
Senior dog contracted illness from other dogs and became critically ill
“Our senior dog caught what we the other three had and is now in critical care due to extreme dehydration from diarrhea.”
Lack of communication/updates during stay
“We would have loved to have received an update or photos but received nothing. We had to send a second message around 2:00pm and we heard how 'great' they were doing but still no photo update.”
