What Reviews Say
93 reviews analyzedVIP Boarding Kennel receives overwhelmingly positive reviews with 88% 5-star ratings. Customers consistently praise the friendly staff, large clean facility with extensive indoor play areas, and exceptional care for dogs with special needs including anxiety, aggression, and senior dogs. The standout feature is their outstanding emergency medical care - one review detailed how they expertly handled an emergency vet visit when the pet parent couldn't be reached.

Worth noting
Dog with known aggression placed in group play session despite paying for individual care
“They put our dog in a group play session and reported that it 'did not go well'. Putting our dog in that situation was unsafe for her and for every other dog and was completely careless.”
Dog left outside alone and crying during tour; facility smelled; dogs in crates barking constantly
“As soon as I got there, she took him and brought him outside to stay by himself the whole time, which I could hear him crying and barking to get out. The place smelled and the dogs are kept in a crate most of the day, which were all barking nonstop.”
Daycare service discontinuation
“Disappointed that daycare has now ended but they still provide boarding services.”
Communication misunderstandings about dog care
“The girl who told me that was confused due to signage that she misinterpreted outside of my dog's kennel.”
