What Reviews Say

32 reviews analyzed

Bow Wow Care 101 enjoys overwhelmingly positive reviews (81% 5-star) with exceptional staff warmth and dog happiness being the primary strengths. However, two concerning reviews about kennel cough transmission and refund issues represent serious red flags that warrant attention. The facility excels at grooming and communication (daily photo updates), though some concerns exist about limited outdoor space compared to competitors. The owner responded defensively to a negative review, claiming the reviewer wasn't a client.
