What Reviews Say
309 reviews analyzedFriendsville Animal Center is an exceptional luxury pet boarding and daycare facility with an almost perfect 5-star rating across 309 reviews. The facility is praised for its immaculate cleanliness, spacious 10-acre grounds with a bone-shaped pool, and highly attentive owners Shelly and Sergio Rios who live on-site. The standout feature is the daily report cards with video updates that give pet parents peace of mind. Dogs are described as genuinely excited to attend, with many owners noting their pets don't want to leave. While the pricing is higher than average, reviewers consistently say it's worth every penny. The rare negative reviews (3 total) focus on the $50 evaluation fee or vague complaints, and the owners respond professionally to each. This is clearly a premium, family-run facility that treats pets like their own.
