What Reviews Say
23 reviews analyzedCompanion Dogs receives overwhelmingly positive reviews with 21 of 23 reviews being 5-star ratings. The facility is praised for its compassionate staff (especially Cerri and Sam), excellent dog socialization and exercise opportunities, and high-quality wooded facility. Nearly all reviewers highlight their dogs' excitement to attend and the peace of mind they feel leaving their pets there. However, one detailed 1-star review raises serious concerns about a dog injury during boarding, lack of transparency, and communication issues. The owner responded defensively to this complaint, creating a notable contrast with the otherwise warm, positive sentiment across all other reviews.
