What Reviews Say

194 reviews analyzed

K-9 Castle is highly regarded for its exceptionally friendly staff and transparent amenities like live webcams and digital report cards. Customers frequently praise the facility's affordability and the fact that dogs return home thoroughly exhausted from play. While sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, there are isolated but serious concerns regarding outdoor turf temperatures and the handling of minor injuries.

Worth noting

Physical injury due to facility conditions (Turf burns)

β€œThe Astro turf the dogs play on gets so hot that it burned and caused multiple blisters on my poor dog’s feet.”

Unreported injuries/Lack of supervision

β€œIt's not pleasant at all to pick up your dog and see that he has an injury very close to his eye... check that the dogs are okay.”

Inadequate space/Enclosure size(2 mentions)

β€œhe really was too big for their small cage. The big enclosures they have at the front are just for show I guess.”

Staffing/Training issues regarding reactive dogs(2 mentions)

β€œI am finding current staff to be significantly less knowledgeable on how to work with barrier and leash reactive dogs.”
