What Reviews Say

44 reviews analyzed

Cassio Pet Resort enjoys a strong reputation with the majority of reviewers praising its caring staff, reliable boarding services, and quality grooming. However, several serious incidents (dog injury, medication failure, grooming injury) and recurring complaints about receptionist rudeness and communication gaps prevent a higher rating. The owner responds professionally to all reviews, though some defensive responses to negative reviews may reflect areas for improvement in customer relations.
