What Reviews Say

108 reviews analyzed

Stone Dog Inn & Spaw is an exceptional dog boarding and daycare facility with nearly universal 5-star reviews praising the caring 'aunties' staff, clean facility, excellent communication through Instagram updates, and the obvious happiness of dogs who eagerly run into the facility. The facility goes above and beyond with holiday parties, birthday celebrations, and personalized care. Three isolated negative reviews cite breed restrictions (pitbulls), a dog being banned after years of visits, and concerns about grooming services - these appear to be uncommon exceptions to an otherwise outstanding reputation. The owner actively responds to nearly all reviews with warm, personalized messages.

Worth noting

Dog banned after years of successful visits due to play style concerns

They banned him because they did not like the way he played with other dogs. This was after passing their exhaustive multi visit screening policy.

Breed discrimination - pitbull mixes denied service

They discriminated based on dog breeds!! They denied service because our dogs are adopted from shelters and are pitbull mixes.

Grooming services not actually offered despite website advertising

Advertise on website that they do grooming. They don't.

Higher pricing than other facilities(3 mentions)

Are they more expensive then other places? Yes. Are they the same as other places? Definitively NO.

Limited breed acceptance due to insurance

Due to our liability coverage we simply cannot take certain breeds at this location.
