Staff shoutouts
Worth noting
Security and containment concerns
“The large and small dog sections outside were separated by a short barrier my dog could’ve easily hopped over... one of the enclosure doors had already been left open by an exiting staff member.”
Sanitation and staff attentiveness during orientation
“The play areas were visibly unsanitary, and the staff appeared disengaged, inattentive, and ill-prepared to handle this appropriately.”
Facility appearance/Neighborhood
“In addition to everything looking dilapidated, it didn’t feel secure.”
Staff attitude/Professionalism
“the manager made a snarky comment when I walked back in... surprised by the attitude when I decided not to leave her there.”
