What Reviews Say

61 reviews analyzed

Dreamland Kennel receives overwhelmingly positive reviews (approximately 75% are 5-star) with customers praising the friendly staff, reasonable pricing, spacious facilities, and happy dogs. However, a small but significant number of concerning reviews highlight serious issues: communication breakdowns where owners weren't notified of injuries or fights, dogs returning injured or sick, and pricing disputes. The most troubling review describes a decade-long customer whose dogs suffered a broken toenail, weight loss, and mouth sores with minimal communication. While most dogs and owners have excellent experiences, these recurring complaints about transparency and follow-up suggest inconsistent care standards that warrant attention.

Worth noting

Dog injury - puppy lost entire toenail with exposed quick and bleeding, no notification given to owner

โ€œWhen I picked them up after that second stay, I was told my puppy had broken a toenail. In reality, she had lost the entire nail, the quick was exposed, and she was bleeding.โ€

Senior dog returned with mouth sores from kennel barking/pushing

โ€œmy senior dog came home with sores on his mouth. I was told, casually, that he had been barking and pushing against the kennelโ€

Dogs in fight - owner not notified until pickup

โ€œThey never called me to tell me that my dogs got in a fight. I had to find out when I came back to pick them up after my trip!โ€

Soiled bedding - urine soaked dog bed

โ€œI opened their bedding and it was.soaked in urine.โ€

Dog returned sick - diarrhea and lethargy

โ€œMy female came back with terrible diarrhea... And my 11 year old male is lethargic and can barely walk and won't eat.โ€

Significant weight loss in dogs during boarding

โ€œBoth dogs lost ~8% of their body weight over the course of these two stays.โ€

Communication breakdown - no notification of injuries/incidents(3 mentions)

โ€œNo message about this ever reached me despite being told one had been sent.โ€

Pricing disputes/discrepancies(2 mentions)

โ€œOn pick up day 'we normally just do a 10 percent discount'. So we ended up paying extra 100 dollars.โ€

Dogs returning sick or injured(2 mentions)

โ€œMy female came back with terrible diarrhea which is never a problem for her.โ€

Lack of follow-up on health issues(2 mentions)

โ€œIt took multiple vet visits for her to recover, and Dreamland never once followed up.โ€
