What Reviews Say

90 reviews analyzed

Gîte 4 Pattes is highly regarded for its exceptional cleanliness, modern facilities, and the visible happiness of the pets, who often return home 'happily exhausted.' While the staff is universally praised for their care, some friction exists regarding the owner's strict adherence to appointment slots and vaccination protocols. Overall, it is a top-tier facility for owners who value structure, safety, and a transparent environment.

Worth noting

Allegations of owner belittling staff in front of clients

“the owner speaks harshly and visibly belittles some employees in front of clients. It's not only awkward to witness, but it creates a tense atmosphere”

Inflexibility with scheduling/appointments(2 mentions)

“Appointments are scheduled for the dog's arrival and departure, and there's no way to change them if the slot is full.”

Strict vaccination/breed policies(2 mentions)

“The owner is inflexible on several points. I have valid vaccination records from Mexico, but apparently that is not enough.”
