Worth noting
No cameras to monitor dogs during stays
“My only reason for not giving 5 stars is because they don't have cameras to watch the dogs play. On long visits, we would sure love to see her in some way.”
Grooming quality inconsistency(3 mentions)
“After FIVE HOURS of being at the groomer my dog was only washed and dried. Absolutely ridiculous.”
Dog returned thirsty/possibly not enough exercise
“My dog comes home, and is both full of energy, and devours water like there's no tomorrow. There's no way they are getting enough water, and likely not enough exercise.”
