    Our puppy and her new best friend

    We decided last minute to look for a boarder for our 4 month old Golden Retriever puppy. We had friends who offered to watch her, but she was going through her crazy puppy teething phase... and we liked our friends too much to leave her with them for a week. Vicky was available when I called, which I didn't expect since it was almost 7pm. She was NOT intimidated by a teething puppy. I got the immediate feeling that she could handle whatever our puppy could dish out. We visited and picked up the paperwork. We left for a week a few days later. I had boarded a dog before, but my husband had never. And this was HIS pup. He was heartbroken to leave her with "a stranger". Vicky told us we could call every day, if we wanted, and she would send photos, too. On day 2 of our vacation, I requested a photo. She sent a fun video of our pup playing with her new bestie. My husband was fine after that. When we picked up our pup- she was wiped out. I had warned my husband that dogs are exhausted after being boarded. They play way more than usual. Sure enough, our poor girl couldn't lift her head or stand up straight. She could even wag her tail. After a long night's sleep, she was back to her old self. And Vicky called my husband to check on her the next day. Big points for Vicky for that extra caring gesture. My husband is sold. We would recommend Vicky to anyone. She cares about the doggies. She can handle it all.

    Very disappointed with the conditions of this location and decided I wouldn't feel the place was safe for a dog.

My grandmother had fallen very ill, very quickly and we needed to rehome her two sheep-doodles. Sadly (unbeknownst to us due to her illness) the pups were not being cared for properly... they were matted, dry skin, potty stuck to their fur... we needed same day help because these poor dogs couldn't live this way. The crew at Buster's DELIVERED!!!! By the time they were done my grandmothers dogs were unrecognizable in the best way. You can trust this company, they will do right by you! I cannot thank them enough... Bring your babies here!!! You won't regret it.

When I had difficulty getting him to my ca after the surgery she helped walk Rio to the car and got him in. Few times that we were not able to come to daycare for few weeks, upon return Silver would get on her knees to greet and hug Rio (her velcro dog). It is telling to see him love her so much and her so excited to see her too. Similarly Abby has been fantastic at the front desk, greeting dog parents as they come in, remembering dogs names. When there are additional charges for grooming she calls before processing payment. Their love for pets is clearly shown as Rio gets so excited few miles before we arrive and even though he is not supposed to pull he is very eager to get to see his friends and the staff.

    The Pet Nanny - Drew and Masudi

    Drew has been such an amazing cat caregiver for my crew of fuzzballs for the past several years…read morethat I've decided I can never move out of the area. If you're looking for someone with a genuine love of and connection to cats, who is very experienced with cat behavior and health issues, and who is supremely trustworthy and reliable - look no further than Drew. Before I met Drew I spent so much time on Yelp contacting other pet sitters in the area and they all seemed like they were mostly dog-oriented and just tolerated cats and would be only dropping by to make sure my cats were alive. Then I contacted Drew and I knew right away she was special - she actually adores cats and her primary concern is getting to know your cats' individual needs and quirks and providing the best comprehensive care possible while putting your mind at ease with daily checks-ins and photos. (She also owns a photography business and you can hire her for an epic pet photo session!) Drew regularly takes care of my guys, whether I'm busy for one day or away for a longer trip. Under anyone else's care, I'd worry about their individual dietary and behavioral needs - I have a picky older cat with anxiety and urinary issues, a goofy black cat with a sensitive tummy and a history of eating inedible objects and getting the occasional ear infection, and a young, spunky one-eyed cat who once had an injured leg. Not only has Drew gotten to know each of their personalities and connected with them like they're her own pets (they greet her at the door), she has expertly attended to their occasional extra needs and has on multiple occasions taken the time to talk me through my concerns about their issues. In addition to being a cat owner herself, Drew has experience working at clinics and rescues and volunteers her time at a cat sanctuary so I thoroughly trust her input and consider her a valued care companion and part of our pet family. My cats (and I) absolutely adore Drew and there's just no better feeling when you're away than total peace of mind that your fur family is receiving the best possible care. 5 stars, 10/10. Thank you, Drew!

    Drew is the best house/pet sitter ever. She has been watching our dogs and chickens for 10 years…read more She treats our animals like they are her own, they don't even act like they miss us when we get home. I highly recommend her.

Wonderful customer service and friendly staff from initial call/email and through interview process.

She had a fantastic time and can't wait to return, and I feel happy knowing she has a safe and fun place to be.

    I'm extremely disappointed with our most recent and last visit to this Camp Bow Wow…read more Our dog, Boba (2 y/o Bernedoodle) has been to Camp Bow Wow at least 3 times in the last year for longer stays, usually 1-2 weeks. He's the least aggressive dog you'll ever meet. He's never had any issues at any dog boarding location. On our last visit (August 8-18), when I picked up Boba, I overheard the groomer in the other room tell the front desk person that a dog had a mat and they should tell the owner. I didn't hear a name associated with the dog or owner, but I was the only one picking up at the time. The front desk person never told me anything, but since Bernedoodles are prone to mats, I checked Boba when I got home. I didn't find a mat. I found an extremely infected puncture wound on his neck. I immediately took him to the vet and they confirmed it's a puncture wound and she was 99% certain he was bitten about 3-5 days prior based on the advanced stages of the wound and infection. I had to leave him there to be sedated so they could clean the wound, suture him, and give him fluids, and left with a bill of over $1,000 including medication (one week of antibiotics and a full month of Ursodiol). I contacted Camp Bow Wow to let them know the issue and that I wanted a refund of his stay since they wouldn't refund his medical costs. I was put in touch with the regional manager, Kelli Flynn, who said that the contract states that owners who leave their pets there are fully responsible if anything like this happens, but that if they find evidence that another dog did bite my dog, they would request that the other dog's owner pay the costs. The last communication I received from her was on August 20: "Thank you so much for taking the time to chat with me today. I will be in touch next week after I complete my investigation and review the footage from when Boba was here. Wishing Boba a smooth and continued healing process, and I'll talk with you soon." I have followed up with her multiple times and never heard any response. Even if Camp Bow Wow or the other dog's owner refuse to pay the costs, the owner should know that their dog attacked another dog. I'll be posting this review on Google and Yelp.
