What Reviews Say

136 reviews analyzed

Mutty Paws is overwhelmingly beloved by customers with 89% of reviews being 5-star ratings. The facility excels in staff friendliness, dog happiness, and grooming quality, with many customers praising the camera app for peace of mind and the careful handling of anxious or senior dogs. However, a small but significant number of concerning reviews (about 8%) highlight serious issues: a severe incident where a senior dog became critically ill during boarding, problems with feeding protocols during overnight stays, and dogs being unexpectedly isolated during daycare. The owner responds professionally but infrequently (only 3 responses to 136 reviews). Most customers are loyal repeat visitors who highly recommend the facility.

Worth noting

Senior dog (14 years) became severely ill during boarding - bloody diarrhea, 18% weight loss, severe dehydration, skin damage from feces contact. Owner not notified until pickup day despite dog being sick overnight.

She had lost 4 pounds (18% of her total weight) and was extremely dehydrated.

Dogs allegedly not fed properly and came home thirsty/starving

This is not the first time my dogs have come back to us thirsty and starving.

Dog isolated from group for extended periods, accused of aggression

they had isolated him completely for several hours. Not even a staff member was there with him.

Dog returned with dried feces on coat

One of my dogs had dried poop on him.

Feeding during boarding - dogs not fed as directed or reduced appetite not communicated(2 mentions)

We could not have made feeding our three dogs any easier! We measured their food bag exactly as they would need for the days we were gone, the bag of food did not seem to be touched.

Dog isolation during daycare - dogs separated/isolated unexpectedly(2 mentions)

they chose to lock him in a room by himself isolated and without interaction.

Credit card processing fee (4%) not disclosed upfront

they charged me a fee to use my debit card/ credit card of 4%! I was not made aware that this is their policy at check in
