What Reviews Say

167 reviews analyzed

Fetching Ridge is a highly popular facility among local regulars who praise the attentive staff, detailed report cards, and the 'tired and happy' state of their dogs. However, the business has a polarizing reputation due to a tragic past safety incident involving a dog escape and a very rigid, sometimes confrontational approach to policies regarding new clients and vaccinations. While many pet owners trust them implicitly, the owner's responses to criticism are often lengthy and defensive, highlighting a strict adherence to internal protocols over customer service flexibility.

Worth noting

Fatal escape incident

Jesse panicked and escaped by jumping over a deck railing. He ran away and fell off of a nearby cliff, plunging over 100 feet to his death.

Medication/Feeding Neglect Allegations

Along with her belongings were several unused bags of her food which goes to show they don’t follow any personalized instructions.

Strict/Inflexible New Client Policies(4 mentions)

We’ve been going here 14 years, but when I called to book boarding they said I was a 'new' client because I hadn’t been there since they launched a new software system.

Grooming - Shaving Double Coats/Mats(5 mentions)

They practically skinned my dog after I specifically asked them to leave his fur 3/4 inch long.

Vaccination/Refund Disputes

They waited til the day before boarding to tell us our vaccination proof was not sufficient... then they took our money and refused to refund it.
