What Reviews Say

225 reviews analyzed

Pet Paradise Richmond Airport is a visually impressive, modern facility praised for its luxury amenities like the bone-shaped pool and live webcams. While many customers report happy, tired dogs and friendly staff, there is a significant volume of serious complaints regarding operational negligence, including pets being left in soiled crates, missed feedings, and poor communication during medical or behavioral incidents. The facility struggles with front-desk bottlenecks and inconsistent grooming prices, making it a polarizing choice for pet owners.

Worth noting

Neglect/Hygiene: Multiple reports of dogs returned covered in urine/feces after long stays.

โ€œShe smelled like she had laid in her own urine for the entire 6 days as well as had dried up feces all over her bottom.โ€

Feeding Failures: Pets not being fed according to instructions or missed meals entirely.

โ€œexactly one third of the food remained... they failed to provide my cat with basic care.โ€

Safety/Injury: Dog bite incident with alleged staff negligence in assessment.

โ€œMy dog Draco got bit... I was told that it was a minor nick... His ear is all purple and the size of a golf ball.โ€

Pet Fatality: One report of a healthy dog passing away during boarding.

โ€œIn a weekโ€™s time, while I was away, I got a call that my dog had 'passed away'. Not one person can explain to me why.โ€

Long wait times/Understaffing(8 mentions)

โ€œI waited well over 15 mins in line, there is no one to answer the phone.โ€

Lack of playtime/Crating(12 mentions)

โ€œWe watched the video and she was not let out of her crate the entire day.โ€

Grooming quality and pricing inconsistencies(9 mentions)

โ€œI book a $65 grooming online to be charged $75 because it does not state depending on the groomer they can charge what they want.โ€

Vaccination/Paperwork hurdles at check-in(5 mentions)

โ€œThey let you walk in to drop your pets off and then turn you away without a care [for paperwork].โ€
