What Reviews Say

139 reviews analyzed

Preppy Pet presents a stark duality: the overwhelming majority (approximately 85%) of reviews praise the facility as exceptional, with staff (especially owners Jody and Dana) frequently described as loving, family-oriented caretakers. However, a troubling pattern emerges in negative reviews describing serious safety incidents including dog deaths from injuries sustained on-site, with multiple reviewers reporting their pets were attacked or injured without any notification from staff. The owner responds professionally to all reviews but often in a defensive manner that some customers found dismissive. While most dogs appear happy and well-cared for, the safety concerns around injury reporting and communication represent significant red flags that prospective customers should carefully consider.

Worth noting

Dog died due to injury/attack while in facility care with no owner notification

β€œWhen we arrived, our dog was handed back to us without any explanation... she had been injuredβ€”apparently attacked by another dog... She was placed on antibiotics, and the earliest surgery availability was Monday. Tragically, she didn't make it through the procedure.”

Severe injuries to dogs (bruising, gashes, cuts) during grooming/daycare

β€œHad our dog groomed and she had severe bruising and a large gash... Her entire chest is purple!!!”

Kennel cough outbreaks linked to facility

β€œmy dog is coughing so bad and not breathing well... she had kennel cough... my in-laws have 2 dogs that also now have kennel cough”

Dogs not properly supervised resulting in injuries

β€œHe was coated in pee and had a bleeding cut on the corner of his eye. Leads me to believe that maybe someone wasn't keeping an eye on him while other dogs got a little too rough with playing.”

No emergency contact when dog was injured

β€œDespite having our veterinarian's number and multiple emergency contacts on file, no one contacted us or sought medical help for her.”

Lack of communication about injuries/incidents(6 mentions)

β€œWhen we picked her up, they weren't even told anything had happened β€” they discovered it themselves.”

Kennel cough/illness contracted at facility(4 mentions)

β€œNow she is extremely sick... she had kennel cough. Do not bring your pets here.”

Price discrepancies/confusion(3 mentions)

β€œOnline it said it would be 235 for the week, as we're we're dropping them the state 550.”

Defensive/unsympathetic owner responses(4 mentions)

β€œHe told me that it happens and that sorry the dog is sick but most likely sick because MY DOGS immune system isn't good.”
