What Reviews Say

465 reviews analyzed

Philadelphia Pet Hotel & Villas receives overwhelmingly positive reviews with 90%+ 5-star ratings. The facility is praised for its caring staff, excellent communication, clean environment, and ability to handle anxious or reactive dogs. The owners (Jared and Daren) are described as hands-on and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. Minor complaints center on pricing (considered expensive by some) and occasional phone responsiveness issues. A small number of concerning incidents were reported (kennel cough, minor injuries), but the owners responded professionally to address them. The on-site vet hospital and 24/7 staffing provide peace of mind for pet parents. This appears to be a premium boarding option where quality of care justifies higher pricing for most customers.

Worth noting

Kennel cough contracted at facility

โ€œEverything else was great, but my dog came home with the nastiest kennel cough.โ€

Dog injured during stay (scratches/cuts)

โ€œOur dog came back with scraps and cuts all over her. Feet and elbows. Looked like she was dragged around.โ€

Dog injured/limping after stay

โ€œI returned from my trip and picked up my dog... my dog, who i sent down in perfect condition would no longer run or jump and after further personal examination was hurt in his lower back.โ€

Turf burn from group play area

โ€œWhen we picked him up after his 2 night stay his paws were very sore and itchy... he had a pretty harsh turf burn on his paws where the webbings of his toes are.โ€

Dog not fed during grooming visit

โ€œThey kept him all day, without feeding him... My dog was upset, starving, and thirsty.โ€

Pricing/extra fees(12 mentions)

โ€œIt is super over-priced... The base price for the dog kennel/room is already very high ($60), and then you have to add an additional activity fee.โ€

Phone responsiveness(8 mentions)

โ€œNo ones seems to answer the phone. Called three days in a row to secure a cat condo and never heard back from staff.โ€

Grooming quality issues(3 mentions)

โ€œBad haircut, great stay! Very choppy and poorly done, we ended up having to get another haircut to even out the face and body trim.โ€
