What Reviews Say

79 reviews analyzed

Salty Paws Resort & Spa receives overwhelmingly positive reviews with 5-star ratings comprising the vast majority. Customers consistently praise the friendly staff, exceptional cleanliness, and the genuine love shown to dogs. Many highlight that their pets run excitedly into the facility and are always happy upon pickup. However, there are 3 serious red flags: one allegation of racial discrimination and disrespectful conduct, one report of pest issues, and one case of a dog becoming severely ill without owner notification. These isolated but serious incidents are offset by numerous repeat customers and strong word-of-mouth recommendations.

Worth noting

Racial discrimination allegation and extremely disrespectful owner behavior

Told me she she doesn't serve blacks and blocked me from leaving!!

Pest infestation (roaches and ants)

I saw roaches and ants in certain corners!

Dog became severely ill during boarding - dehydration, weight loss, diarrhea not disclosed to owner

She was found dehydrated, and lethargic. per the vet 'this did not happen overnight ,but she probably hasn't eaten /drank in days, she lost 10% of body weight'

Limited drop-off/pick-up hours(2 mentions)

The drop off/pick up times are 8:30-9:30am and 3:30-4pm. Tight but do able.

No weekend grooming available

My only complaints are that there is no dog groomer on the weekend
