What Reviews Say

239 reviews analyzed

Green Valley K9 is overwhelmingly beloved by customers, with 85%+ of reviews giving 5 stars. The facility is praised for its clean, modern design, excellent amenities (especially the indoor pool), and staff who genuinely love dogs. Many customers note their dogs get excited to arrive and experience significant behavioral improvements. However, there are recurring concerns about manager-level customer service (particularly one manager named Krista), communication gaps about dog incidents, and suggestions of quality decline under new management. A small number of reviews mention dogs getting sick after stays. The owner is highly responsive (78% response rate) and maintains a professional tone. Most negative reviews are offset by the sheer volume of enthusiastic positive experiences.

Worth noting

Dogs not being properly supervised resulting in staff injury

โ€œMy boyfriend told her NOT once but THREE times you do not want to take them back together it's too much. But she did not listen and took them both back by herself, she lost control of the dogs and got injured.โ€

Lack of communication about dog incidents/behavior problems

โ€œThey said this is time number 6. We have never heard of any of the other altercations like this.โ€

Dogs developing kennel cough after boarding

โ€œALL 3 of our dogs got sick with 24 to 48 hours of picking them up. Vet diagnosed as Kennel cough and now we have a $300 vet/medications bill to pay.โ€

Dogs returning home sick/dehydrated after boarding
