What Reviews Say

24 reviews analyzed

A small number of negative reviews raise concerns about staff friendliness, boarding routines, kennel anxiety, grooming delays and quality, pricing, and alleged sanitation or illness-control issues. Owner responses are generally warm and appreciative, but responses to critical reviews sometimes dispute the reviewer’s use of services or explain and defend operational practices.
