Our pup (who was a Velcro dog with me at first) loves going to daycare and has become a much happier, confident, and sociable dog since he's started. Even his nap habits improved! The drop off and pick up at the front are so convenient, the hours are great, and our pup is well taken care of. You can tell he gets lots of love there! I'm so grateful for A Joyful Dog. I don't think we could manage our pup without them. Thank you

We were so anxious to board our special needs dog who prior to us adopting her, was at the city of…read morebuffalo animal shelter for a month. We worried the situation would be too similar and make her panic, triggering her medical issues. The staff at Joyful Dog was patient, kind, and empathetic. It was clear from our thorough conversation before booking that our pup would be in great care. They were understanding of our anxiousness at drop off, and gave us so much info at pickup regarding how she did during her stay (including a very cute report card!) We were so happy with our test boarding at Joyful Dog and feel assured and far less stressed about her next boarding, which will be for a longer stay. They are clearly genuine dog lovers, and great at dealing with us anxious dog parents as well!

I started taking my two dogs, Louie & Winnie, to daycare at Creature Comforts Pet Resort two years…read moreand ever since their first day we can't get enough. I feel that good customer service is hard to find in 2020 and the front desk staff couldn't be nicer when you drop or pick up your dogs. I love how there is 24 hour on site staff as well. I would never leave my dogs home alone overnight in case of house emergencies so why would I leave my dog overnight at daycare alone? I wouldn't and taking them to creature comforts I don't have to. I also love how if there is an issue with my dog whether they are at daycare or boarding I am notified right away and also when I pick them up there are notes down to the time of when this issue occurred. For example, my lab Louie got sick at daycare from something he ate at home the night before (he got into the garbage so I was expecting he might not feel good). And when I arrived to pick him up the front staff went above and beyond to reassure me that he was well taken care of and even feeling better. And he was! It was just another example of the staff going above and beyond for our family. We have tried many local daycares and honestly they do not compare to the care they receive at Creature Comforts. Their grooming appointments are always on time, they come home exhausted and happy from playing with their friends (this is especially nice in spring when running outside isn't an option with the mud). And in the summer they love playing outside in the splash park and not being stuck in the house all day. It's a small price to pay for not feeling guilty and making them be stuck in the house all day while I am at work- we love it! They get to be dogs for the day running wild and free in a save environment and I get to focus on work and not needing to leave early because I feel bad they are at home. It is an experience you don't want your dog to miss.

HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE place to bring your fur baby!! They lie, they tell you that your dogs get five…read morewalks a day while boarding, but fail to tell you they actually DO NOT! Think about it. If they have fifty dogs there like I was told they did, it would take more than five hours to walk all those dogs. I watched on the cameras as one of the staff put what looked like a lasso around my puppies neck as he hid in the corner apparently afraid of her, and she dragged him across the suite to the door where along with my other puppy not so scared, went for a supposed walk which lasted literally TWO/THREE minutes! Yes MINUTES!! I was shocked, I called three times to just get the voice mail after I witnessed this. Then I left a message for return call extremely upset. I did speak to the employee that apologized for her actions, and gave an excuse that was a lie, because I know my puppies. How do dogs pee and poop if it takes longer than three minutes to walk to the back of the building to the outside? Then they want to charge you EXTRA, for accidents in their suite. Well no wonder they're having bowel movements and peeing all over, they're NOT getting enough time , if ANY at all to do their duty. I then spoke with the owner who had the nerve to tell me that maybe I got the time wrong that maybe it was actually longer, and totally disregarded the lasso, and dragging my puppy when I said " YOUR employee admitted it to me and identified herself, and also tried to justify why she did that. Another employee also witnessed it , and said it was NOT okay, that you do not pull a puppy/dog if they refuse. You attempt to show them it's okay, and help them feel comfortable with you it was also very nice outside, and that she offered to take all four of my puppies outside, but was told only two could go with her. Emily (the owner) said she would speak to Hannah (the staff member that told me her name and apologized for her actions) then get back to me. Well, that didn't happen! NOT surprised! I then asked Emily to review her cameras, I gave her the time frame when when it happened within minutes on the hour, when Emily said " iIt's LIVE footage, I can't review the past! " WHAT?" I thought? What if she had to go to court and show proof on the cameras that we pay extra for, she can't produce evidence... ?? BULLSHIT!! Emily also likes to try and charge for the accidents the puppies/dogs have in their suite/pen, which is a result of them not getting walked long enough, or AT ALL.. and make it like it's the dog that's the problem, not her POORLY run business. The communication is also extremely poor. You tell one employee something, and the next minute another employee is doing the complete opposite. I never said to separate my dogs during feedings yet they take my smallest girl dog and put her away( I don't know where) from my other dogs to feed her. Now my smallest dog is NOT afraid of my three other small dogs, if anything they're afraid of her! She's a tough little 5lb Yorkie! I questioned why she was gone for over an hour when they said she was eating separately from the others. I asked why? I was told it was as per my request. NOT!! I never told them that. They still after I said " no longer" separated her and fed her elsewhere. Also they took a water bowl out of the suite at approx 5:40 pm and never gave my four small dogs water until 8:05pm. That was after they ate dry food for dinner and supposedly went for a 15 minute walk that I can't prove. Now everyone knows that dogs go right for their water dish after a walk and also while eating dry food, yet NO WATER! I made three phone calls, and just got the voice mail. Then I called my daughter and told her I was calling the police, that my dogs don't have ANY water, and it's been two and a half hours. I also called the Angola number unaware it was another boarding place that Emily ran. Emily called me from that place earlier in the morning when I had concerns that needed addressing ASAP thinking it was her cell, that I could hopefully get ahold of her to get her staff to give my puppies some WATER! I then noticed on the camera that a lady was bringing in water, at 8:05 pm! They were all trying to get their little heads in that bowl as if they hadn't had water all day. We had to ask for a second bowl as there are four small dogs in there. Too many things went wrong without ANY accountability! The owner "EMILY " had excuses for EVERYTHING! I now understand why! why this place has OY 2 1/2 stars...

His fur was uneven, his face was stinky, and he was absolutely terrified in the car. I knew it was too good to be true when Buffalo Barks called me half an hour later telling me he was ready to be picked up after I dropped him off. I've been to multiple grooming salons where it takes at least 90+ minutes. That was my first bad experience. Second bad experience: I had made a grooming appointment on Friday March 6th. I show up and the guy tells me that he "called me and left a voicemail" stating that the groomer was out sick. I didn't receive a voicemail and rescheduled for Sunday March 15th. I showed up at 3:30pm which was our scheduled appointment and the place was closed. I called them the next day on Monday March 16th and the guy told me, "Yeah, we closed at 3pm yesterday because no one else was coming in." I literally saw this guy write my name down in his calendar. They obviously didn't thoroughly check their calendar. I rescheduled for that Thursday March 18th only for him to call me back and cancel my appointment TWICE. I eventually just let them pick a time for Thursday because I needed my pup cut ASAP. Mind you, he was supposed to get his hair cut on 3/6 and he was scheduled to go on 3/19- almost 2 whole weeks later. My dog is a shih tzu and his fur grows fast! I have no clue what happened to this place. I had a great experience the first few times I took my pup there. I ended up scheduling a grooming appointment at Dog Days of Buffalo where they took my pup the next day. I called Buffalo Barks to cancel my appointment and they had the audacity to ask me if I wanted to reschedule. I told them no thank you! I rather learn how to cut my dog's hair than go back to that place again.
