What Reviews Say
96 reviews analyzedRoaring Brook Kennels presents a stark contrast between high-energy daycare services and problematic boarding/grooming management. While many regular daycare clients report ecstatic dogs and a compassionate staff, several boarding reviews highlight severe safety lapses, including dog fights due to ignored instructions and poor sanitation leading to illness. The facility benefits from its attachment to a veterinary hospital, though administrative communication and grooming reliability are frequent points of frustration for dissatisfied customers.
