My pit mix always has the best time at boarding/doggie daycare here. The staff greet her by name. I love checking in on the cameras to see her happy and having fun. She doesn't want to leave! Pretty affordable too. Love this place! read more

We've been there three times and got Bordetella twice which is kennel cough. When we left the kennel now they were very blasé about it For a big dog that's really dangerous because they can get Bloat after coughing and die Last time after a five day stay my dog lost 10 pounds. He looked emaciated The people there told me he loved biting the hose i but he's actually petrified of a hose and now even more so after that stay. He was dirty dirtier than he's ever been, and he had lacerations all over. I will never ever ever go there again. My dog is worth way more than that. read more

We "hired a babysitter" for our "sorta senior "pup and they were very accommodating to his bad hip and mellow personality during his stay. When the other bigger dogs got rough they moved him over with the smaller dogs. We got email updates while we were gone as we couldn't access cameras very often, so this gave us a piece of mind. The ladies we dealt with were very encouraging and understanding, answering questions in person or via email as needed. It was a nice chunk of change but the service and piece of mind was excellent. If we need a sitter again, which is likely next year, we will definitely be calling them. read more

WARNING TO ALL ANIMAL LOVERS If I could give a negative star count to this deplorable facility I would!! Due to their neglect my beautiful loving, healthy 5 year old best friend furbaby died of neglect at their hands! dropped a healthy happy furbaby off on saturday morning & was picking out a cremation Urn Monday morning! They did not even call me until 8am Monday telling me they were taking him to the emergency vet, even though Sunday he was not eating, drinking, wanting to play & was in distress, heavily panting still refusing to drink. the staff ignored all symptoms & sounds "DIAGNOSED" it as anxiety. found out he was whining & crying all night long & again was "DIAGNOSED" with anxiety. I called to see how much fun. he was having on sunday afternoon & was told he was doing great. no mention of the fact he was completely not himself, as this was not his first time being there! He was known to them and knew this behavior was very uncharacteristic for him! had they been honest with me, i would've been there to take him to the vet & get him the help he needed before my beautiful prince ramen was left to die alone in severe pain in a cage. When they finally called me he was possibly all ready dead, as the vet said he was DOA upon arrival. Had they been doing the job that I & other fur baby parents entrusted them to do, my beautiful prince could be snuggled up on the couch with me right now. This did not have to happen!!!!!!! read more

Booboo's Buddies - Pet Boarding Near Me - Carson City, Nevada

DO NOT TAKE ANY ANIMAL YOU CARE ABOUT HERE!!! I boarded my dog for a 5 day stay while my husband and I were on vacation. Upon picking Kobe up this morning I was told he had diarrhea at some point last night and his bed and toys need to be thrown away and that I could use their tub to clean his feet. I was able to get Kobe into an emergency grooming and now as I am going through his bag of treats that I specifically date and label he was never giving any of them and I know my dog doesn't eat his dry kibble he lives off eating his treats and dinner which is my other point he wasn't fed dinner one night!!! THE FUCK?! FUCK THIS PLACE! My dog also has a cut on his nose and they are trying to say it happened when I picked him up BULLSHIT! FUCK YOU YOU ANIMAL ABUSERS! read more

Booboo's Buddies - The dinner he wasn't fed one night - Pet Boarding Near Me - Carson City, Nevada

See all

they say first impressions are everything. I called because I had an appointment to get my cats nails trimmed but I couldn't remember when . I got an uppity entitled girl who couldn't even get me a referral after theirs quit. read more

I needed a place to put my pups for a few days..... and I found Boo Boos Buddies. This place is absolutely excellent! I've taken my two basset hounds there a couple of time now for a weekend or two. The staff there is amazing! So good with the dogs! They are WELL taken care of. And they are exhausted when they get home so I KNOW they've had fun AND when I say the words 'Want to go see Boo Boo?' They perk up and get excited! This place is the best! I'm so impressed every time I take my pups there. Clean clean clean!! They have cameras so you can watch your pups. Thank you Boo Boos Buddies!! You're top notch!! read more

Booboo's Buddies - Sophie and Mando - Pet Boarding Near Me - Carson City, Nevada

They are the BEST! Many of the staff members seem to have a training background with dogs. My husband is a firefighter who works a lot and he loves that he can watch our dogs on the webcam and see our dogs playing & socializing while he's stuck on duty. We have two dogs that go there and they love it...in particular our little dog...a sweet rescue that was abandoned whom we adopted and they are so patient and loving with him and we notice such an improvement in his behavior since he's been going to BooBoo's. He gets so excited to play with the other dogs and he loves the staff. We couldn't recommend them enough!! read more

This place is the best! I can name about 4 staff off of the top of my mind that treat our puppy (14 year old small Yorkie) with more care and love than I could ever hope for. We moved our dog here from the other places in town and say time and time again how happy we are that we did. A huge thank you to the amazing staff that honestly give our sweet girl a few more years of life by treating her with respect and care. *Book in advance as they get busy read more

Don't do it. We dropped off our 5 month and 10 month old Newfoundland and golden retriever for Labor Day weekend. The informed us that our "misbehaved dogs" had diarrhea in the kennel on the last night. We went to the vet after 7 days of coughing and diarrhea followed without improvement. Both our dogs had parasitic diarrhea (coccidia) and both had kennel cough. $500 in vet bills for the two of them. There were no signs of illness when dropped off Friday and they told us diarrhea developed on Sunday night. We came back to our 10-month old golden retriever was wearing a shock collar. We did give permission on a waiver because we thought, "no way he gets a collar" we were dumb. I saw him react to the collar twice on video while he was sniffing the ground near a handler. We were told he was mounting dogs. Not only can that not lead anywhere in a 10 month old retriever but I did not see that on video when I saw him react. I brought this up and they said, "we're just vibrating it, he's really afraid of it so I haven't needed to shock him" thanks. They lost out second dogs tags and vaccine tags. They "searched" for a week and found one tag and reluctantly agreed to replace the missing name tag. As if we needed anything else, Bodie had bloody nail and we gave no permission for grooming. So apparently his nails were trimmed, and not done right. Booboo has no buddies here. We had planned on twice weekly daycare, after one weekend we will never go back. read more

Worst place ever to take your dog. Our dog got bit by another dog and they won't even give us the owners info. I will never go back to that place!! read more

This was our first time doing doggie daycare and the entire staff were so kind and patient with all of us as we adjusted. We had scheduled a trip to nearby Virginia City and our petsitter cancelled so we had to arrange care for our pup who has separation anxiety. Booboo's Buddies came in so clutch. We were able to get our girl in for a quick observation and arrange a few days of daycare to allow us to do some not dog friendly activities. Our worries about leaving her were quickly allayed, as there is a camera you can use to watch the dogs. We could see that our girl quickly made a ton of friends and had a ball. The facilities are clean, colorful, spacious and bright. The staff were incredibly patient and professional and the whole experience was just so easy. We got a chance to meet Booboo once as well. What a sweet doggo! It was an incredible experience and honestly saved our trip which we may have had to cancel were it not for these folks. Our girl was always happy to see us and all tuckered out from running and playing. I could not recommend this business more highly. read more

Oh I love this place so much such a better experience than the previous place that I had been to and I've only been in town for four days. They make me feel so welcome and communicate with me and really try to help me better my dog. I feel like family with this place it feels homey and my dog never wants to leave I can truly feel in my heart that he is loved and cared for with the best intentions of this business. I would recommend this place to anyone with a fur baby. They make so many accommodations they have cameras and they give discounts for packages what more could you ask for. They are even taking precautions with the fires going on right now very impressed! read more

DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOGS HERE!!!! They allow aggressive dogs in their facility!! My two dogs have been going there for almost 2 years. Past couple months have gone WAY down hill. Found out the heartbreaking hard way after my dog was viciously attacked by another dog within 15 mins of being there and entering the yard. BY A ANOTHER DOG WHO WAS KNOWINGLY AGGRESSIVE BY STAFF!! Staff just watched as the other dog attacked and pinned and threw my dog against the gate. Ignoring the wounds and trauma of my dog to attend right away and sweetly to the aggressive dog and usher him so gently out of the yard, as my dog runs screaming in pain. This facility states they have a no tolerance aggressive behavior policy-which they did not adhere to and completely swept this under the rug and lied to us. When called about the incident they told me it was "just a nip and she is fine, they have seen this before." After watching the video provided two weeks after the incident, I had to harass to get, and a vet visit, it was FAR from a nip!! My dog was attacked and rag dolled!!! I'm sickened that I trusted this place. My dog will never be the same with other dogs. Owner and facility will be turned into the state. Please do NOT take your loved ones here any longer! This is your warning, I learned the hard way. read more

We got our pup earlier this month on a Sunday and he needed grooming. They were able to take him in without reservations on a Sunday! And that meant a lot because a lot of groomers are not open on Sunday. The took good care of him, cleaned his ears and clipped his nails perfectly. We were very happy at how clean the facility was and how well they interacted with us. Staff was very friendly and paid attention to detail with our pup and gave us detailed information over the phone and while we were there. We will happily go back and recommend BooBoos Buddies's read more

Very happy. My dog has been there about five times. Very nice employees. Clean facility. My dog loves it there. The prices are very very reasonable. And the attention and service they pay to the dogs is great. They've even given my dog medication before. read more

Made an appointment this morning and they were able to get our fur babies in today! It was our older dog Onyx's first time ever going to the groomer, and they did so well with him. Jasper has so much floof in his tail and they both look the whitest I've ever seen them. The pricing for this place is amazing compared to other places. I would highly recommend them, and will definitely be back again. Thank you! read more

if you love your animals don't board them at booboo's buddies if we had been a couple of days longer to pick him up he probably would have been dead he was so sick when got their and all they did was lock him in his tiny crate for two days before we got there they knew he was sick they didn't even take him to the vet and they won't even call us back THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR PET IF YOU LOVE YOUR PET DON'T BOARD THEM THERE we had to rush him to emergency tests said he got PNEUMONIA THANKS booboos buddies read more

This place use to be good. I use to take my boy dog when his sister passed away. In sept 2020 we adopted a girl dog. We took her in for a meet and great which went well. We made an appointment for day care. My girl plays kinda rough when excited and has anxiety so told them if there is anything wrong we will come get her. About 2 hours after my husband dropped them off im at work and looking at the web cam and cant see my dogs. 45 min later I get a frantic phone call that my dogs got out. They said my girl was playing too agressive and they put them on the side yard. Apparently they busted through the fence. A friend of ours found them so all was good but they could have died. I should have known at the meet and greet she told me how short staffed they are and nobody wants to work. They pay 10.00 an hour so no suprise. Be aware they take too many dogs in ratio to staff and cant watch them. My dogs had 45 min to themselves to break out. Its a shame. read more

(KENNEL COUGH ,KENNEL COUGH' KENNEL COUGH)We had a trip planned for a week so we decided to take our dogs for a play day to see how it would go. As i watched the monitor in there front room . They placed her to get introduced. She was immediately attacked by two dogs. They should have stayed by her side as she is greeted to make sure that would not have happened. The employee came out and apologized for what happened and for me having to watch it happen. She informed me that the aggressive dogs would be removed and insured me that this wouldn't happen. I decided to go ahead and board them, thinking dogs will be dogs. We liked the camaras in the yard so we could see them. We noticed that a dog was vomiting and watched as my puppy licked it up. I picked up my dogs and noticed they were a little lethargic, we got them home and Lily started heaving and coughing up mucous. All night long we were up. This morning we are trying to get her into a vet. We have an appointment today at 4. The vet will only see her in our car because of how highly contagious it is. I called booboos and she said that there was a sick dog there, but our dog was not vomiting. She lied.She also said that they have a sign in the front. After inspecting our 6 month old pup, we noticed bite marks on his ears and neck. I asked why my dogs were put in with the small dogs and she said that they were nervous. Lie again. If your dog is here, you should be aware that there is a kennel cough break out there. We should have been notified because my dog is hacking up every 15 minutes. VERY DISAPPOINTED read more

I would give zero stars but Yelp wouldn't allow that low of a rating. We had an emergency and we needed our two goldendoodles watched for a week while we traveled out of state. I called BooBoos Buddies. They seemed legit and when I registered I told them I wanted them brushed daily (which I was paying for) as they had long show coats. I told them they would be going to a show and I didn't want their coats matted. They assured me they would brush them daily. And when I went to pick them up, they were matted messes. They had shock collars on both of them. Our dogs are only 1 and 2yrs old. I was livid. I had to have our dogs completely shaved with their groomer the next day. While in their care, our dogs lost weight and came back very skittish and hand shy. Our dogs are not aggressive towards other dogs or people at all. I won't ever use or recommend that place. I have heard so many similar horror stories as well from a lot of people that have gone to BooBoos. Yes it is a very nice setup equipped with cameras and all. But....I'd rather have my dogs in a place not equipped as fancy-and know they are well taken care of. I definitely recommend Pawsitive Image Pet Grooming Salon on Saliman. They are both a pet grooming and a doggie daycare petting business. Our dogs love it there. read more

So wonderful! Everyone is so nice and helpful! The place is really clean. Zuri went for the first time and was introduced to the yard without all the other dogs at first, then when the other dogs joined in the yard, the staff was very aware of her comfort level and gave her confidence she needed to be more comfortable! read more

Booboo's Buddies - Pet Boarding Near Me - Carson City, Nevada

Beware of Booboo's Buddies pet facility in Carson City. I took my dog for a 4 hour visit, and he came home with Kennel Cough. I contacted the facility, and they were aware that there was an outbreak, and many dogs got sick. I took him to the vet, he was on antibiotics for 2 weeks. I took him back for another visit, and he got sick again, another round of antibiotics. I contacted them again to let them know, and they said no other dogs where reported sick. The manager informed me to not take my dog to the vet again for antibiotics, and to give him honey & chicken broth, guess they also think they are doctors. I sent them a letter asking them to pay for both vet visits, and have been completely ignored. When I originally went to check out the facilities they would not give me a tour of the back, which I found to be suspicious. I have recently been told by a business owner that they put shock collars on the dogs. DO NOT take your animals to Booboo's Buddies, they only care about the $, not about the pet. Myself and others who have had the same experience will not be taking our dogs there again. read more

You Guys keep the little dogs locked up in the tiny inside area all day!?? Don't they get to go outside to the fun area that has toys??

This place is GREAT! My dog played all day here and was worn out by the evening which is hard to do with a cattle dog, this place is clean and very organized, Phil and the employees are so nice and helpful as we were traveling threw, will use this place again when we come back to this area read more

Awesome place and well organized. I live in Reno and usually pass Carson on my way out for trips. It is very affordable! They let me see my boy's sleeping area and its very clean! Thank you Booboo Budddies for taking care of my Åhe' while on my camping trip. Seemed like he got along well with staff and other doggies. He will definitely be back! read more

I went to the ribbon cutting for this place and took a great tour of their facility. The owners are so nice and you can tell they put a lot of energy into making this a great place for your fur babies. We've been taking our sweet boy here twice a week for three weeks now and we are super pleased! They send adorable pics to us to let us know he's having fun and they call if they have any questions. His first day, he needed a bit of special attention (he's blind) but Susan made sure he was able to find his way around and get to water, etc. Now, our dog is so excited when he knows we are going and comes home exhausted from playing all day. Thanks for taking such good care of our family member! read more

I was visiting a friend and needed to board my dog Barney for a few days and I chose BooBoo's Buddies. They are a new company and they are fantastic!. They have a nice big place for all the dogs to roam around and play. Very clean kennels and the owners Phil and Susan and just great. It's always hard to leave you dog but Phil & Susan took such good care of Barney! I have never left Barney in the care of anyone and was a little apprehensive but they were so warm and welcoming that my anxiety about leaving Barney just melted away! They sent me a bunch of pictures of Barney interacting with the other dogs. He did fine! I will definitely bring Barney back again next time I visit my friend. It's nice to know that I have a place to leave him that will take good care of him. Thank you Phil and Susan for taking such good care of Barney. We look forward to seeing you again soon! read more

BooBoo's has been absolutely fantastic! C.T. loves it here and the staff does a great job making sure he is taken care of. We recently boarded him here for 6 nights while we were out of town. He has a claw foot (born without the center pad in his left foot) and they made sure he got a break to rest it when he got tired on it, which we really appreciated. The web cams are such a great feature so you can check in on your pet. I saw him playing with the other dogs and the staff interacting with him. It really gives you peace of mind knowing that your dog is in good hands. Their grooming services are also top notch. Thank you BooBoo's Buddies for taking such good care of our boy! read more

Awesome and caring staff. My dogs have fun because I watch them on the webcam having fun. They were tired and happy when they came home. The prices are very reasonable. The owner Susan is knowledgeable on dog behavior and the staff is friendly and great with the dogs. read more

I had really high hopes for this doggy day care but I'm extremely disappointed for many reasons. The last straw was my dog catching an illness from their facility! They KNEW there was a respiratory illness in the building and that multiple dogs at the day care had caught it, yet I was not notified when I took my dog! They put a note on the door AFTER I had dropped my dog off. Unfortunately by that time it was too late and my dog ended up very ill and having to be rushed to the vets over the weekend.  In addition they have a self-proclaimed trainer, who tried to tell me what to do with my dog even though my dog is extremely well behaved and got along great with the dogs there. I have been taking my dog to a trained and professional dog behaviorist and the daycare 'trainer' disagreed with the rehabilitation we have been doing.   I WILL NOT be bringing my dogs there anymore. read more

Boo Boo's is awesome! Our dog, Bear, loves to go and play with the other dogs. The facility is super clean and roomy. The owners are wonderful and you can tell they really enjoy the dogs. They keep in touch with me and send me pics of Bear throughout the day. He gets so excited when we pull into their parking lot and I can relax knowing he's in a safe and nurturing place. Bringing him here for a day or two each week is one of the best decisions we've made for him. read more

We needed a last minute grooming appointment for my little Terrier mix Scruffy and they were able to get us in and out within a very reasonable time! They staff is very friendly and they have a window looking into the groomers station which is great if you have a hard time leaving your furry companion, you can watch them as they're getting groomed! His groomer came out to introduce herself before his appointment and even came out after the appointment to assure we didn't have any questions or concerns! They have a nice selection of toys at a very reasonable price( we walked out with three new toys for the kids). Booboo even came out to great us and she was just a love! Definitely plan on coming back to visit you guys! read more

We had been looking all over the Reno/Sparks/Carson City area for a Doggie Daycare/Boarding place to take our dogs while we are away. Luckily we ran into a woman at the Fuji Park Dog Park who told us about this place which had just opened. We went by and realized we had found what we were looking for. Susan and Phil were/are so accommodating, We said we were going to get gas at Costco and then let the dogs play at Fuji, and Susan said "just leave them here to see if they like it". so we did and they did and just now we picked them up from a four day stay and we couldn't be happier! The whole time we were gone, we got to watch them playing, etc. on the Doggie Day Care Cam! Our Husky loves the bone shaped pool and wades in it constantly. They even have an area with Pooch friendly Artificial Turf! And it's economical also, we paid almost the same amount for a girl to come by our house twice a day previously.....We will be back for more fun at Booboo's Buddies. Ken and Julie M. read more
