Great people, great facility and outstanding care. Our dogs don't get in as often as I know they…read morewould like, but when they do it's obvious they have had a great day. Whether it's workday daycare or a week of boarding, the dogs are always excited to get there and happily exhausted when their stay is done. Meeting the owner and the awesome staff, it's clear that this isn't your average board 'em and charge 'em affair. These folks care about the dogs, care about pet owners, care about their employees and take pride in their facility. Fortunate to live close to their facility and I need to do my dogs a solid and get them in for daycare more often than we have. As far as boarding them for a week+, we won't even consider an alternative facility. There's never any doubt that the dogs are being looked after, cared for, loved on, trained, groomed (if needed) and, just as importantly, having a heck of a good time. Thanks, Woofy!

Dogs Only Day Care went above and beyond for my dog Benji. My partner and I were getting married at…read morethe Common House down the street and Dogs Only walked our dog Benji to the venue so he could be part of our special day. They were so kind, responsive, and truly wanted to help us. I can't say enough good things about the people that work here. They are truly dog people that are trustworthy and want to help others. If I could give them 6 stars, I would! Thanks for helping us with our special day and making Benji a part of it. We couldn't have done it without your help!

Took my dog for a meet and greet and was told that he was too anxious around new dogs and being…read moreaway from me. They gave me the name of a trainer and recommended that I come back after he's had some exposure. Full disclosure, we're already working with a trainer on his anxiety around strangers and dogs (which I was upfront with) and I wanted to see if he had progressed enough to enjoy doggie daycare. Clearly not! While it may seem odd that I'm giving 5 stars to a place that we didn't get in, I want to say that I appreciate how willing they were to evaluate my dog, listen to my concerns, and give me honest feedback. We have had experiences with other places judging him by his breed and his past and not even giving him a shot. He's a young guy who had a traumatic past and has made SO MUCH progress. He loves other dogs and people, but he does need a firm handler that he knows for the first introductions to give him some confidence. It was totally appropriate for them to give me the feedback that they did. I appreciate that they considered if he would enjoy himself or be too stressed. I appreciate that they are attentive enough to their dogs to not need to discriminate against breeds. From what I say, the staff LOVES the dogs and the dogs are so happy to be there! We will definitely be trying again when we get a little more confident :)

DogServices (the Thalboro location) showed me a level of kindness I will never forget. When I was…read morediagnosed with breast cancer and going through treatment, I was worried about how I would manage everything since I live alone, including caring for my dog, Franklin. The team stepped in to help make sure he could still get to daycare by arranging pickups and drop-offs. But what meant even more was their compassion. They checked in on me and even offered help with things that had nothing to do with daycare -- simply because they cared. They even sent Franklin home with a complimentary bath and made sure he got plenty of love and snuggles while he was there. Franklin absolutely loves going to daycare there, and I am deeply grateful for the support they showed during one of the hardest times in my life. If you are looking for a place that truly loves animals *and* the people who love them, this is it.

I used to take my dog to the small dog location of Dog Services for grooming, but the last time I…read morehad her groomed there, but when I got her home I noticed that she was bleeding. I called immediately and spoke with the manager, and she acted like it was no big deal. The straw that broke the camel's back was that the manager actually blamed my dog for the "accident." I understand that accidents happen, but my main issue was that they knew what had happened and didn't even bother to tell me about it. Additionally, the place reeked of urine, which made me feel like the place was extremely unsanitary! If you are looking for a place to have your dog groomed, I recommend Holiday Barn. The staff there is extremely friendly, they do excellent work, and the place was spotless. I also boarded my dogs there, and if you pay a little extra your dog is kept in it's own room with a television turned to Animal Planet, which was important to me because I hated the idea of my dogs being kept in a cage.

We had a wonderful experience boarding our puppy for a last minute trip. The owners were fast to…read moreresponse and willing to do a meet and greet that same day even though it was last minute.

Our puppy was happy when we went to pick her up and they stated that she was playful and happy during the stay, which I fully believe. We will definitely be using them again!

River City Dog Excursions has been ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I have a 1 year old aussiedoodle puppy, and…read morehis dog walker Meghin is simply outstanding. It is evident that she really loves Finnigan and treats him like royalty. My favorite thing, I would have to say, is getting pictures of him enjoying his day on walks or play dates with his "dog friends" and on nature hikes. Not only do I love how she treats him, but when I get home, he's actually tired! This whole company has gone above and beyond in my opinion, they are always on time, always reliable, and are even so dedicated as to walk Finnigan in the snow (ps: he loves the snow!). April is the one that runs the company, and from the first moment I met her I knew I was going to be impressed with the company. She had me fill out some paperwork (dog food, allergies, vet, vaccination history, etc)... which is a true sign of excellence in my opinion. I also love how there are multiple people in the company... for example, although Meghin is his normal dog walker, one time April ended up walking Finnigan because Meghin had to go out of town. Another time, I had to go out of town for the weekend and Meghin wasn't available, so another person was able to stay with him for the night. Another amazing thing too is that they make sure you get to meet the pet-sitter or dog walker before they watch your animals. Every single time, they have allowed for a free consultation so that each person can get to know the dog. I love this company and will hopefully be using them for a very long time. They're professional, reliable, personable, trustworthy, flexible, dedicated, and they LOVE YOUR ANIMALS LIKE THEIR OWN! Can't get much better than that in my opinion. Also, you get what you pay for... so although you can ask your neighbor to maybe watch your dog for free, you won't get the same attention to detail, customer service, quality, and kindness like River City Dog Excursions.

He comes home full of smiles and immediately plops down to nap. She sends the best pictures and videos too. I was really nervous to let someone besides me have Norman off-leash with them but I can tell from the videos that he trusts Meghin and she knows how to control him! I really feel at ease that Norman gets to have so much fun during the day while I'm at work. Thanks River City Dog Excursions!

I LOVE bringing my dog here. They are great with her and her anxiety. The staff are super friendly!…read moreThey always do such a great job with her and her haircut always looks amazing after! They are the only people I trust with my dog. They make it super easy to make appointments and last minute accommodations. The only thing is that she is ALWAYS the last dog to get cut. It doesn't matter what time I drop her off at. If I drop her off right at 7 she is still there until 4:30. This makes her anxiety 10x worse because she is away from me ALL day. It is inconvenient for me because I can't just run some errands and pick her back up a few hours later. I live too far to just pick her up that late because it is a weird time frame. It is supposed to be a first come first serve basis but it doesn't seem like that to me. Overall I love Ridge Dog Shop and will continue to come here! Timing is just inconvenient.

Honestly, I feel like a failure…read more To my Yelp peeps who have supported me as an elite, I promise to make y'all proud. This groomer, Ridge Dog shop, is AMAZING. Here is why: Yes. With the right tenderness and attention to detail, any one can do a great job. Some can do a great job quickly without sacrificing quality. Ridge Dog Shop does all of dat. Without much effort. Both times I brought my dog there, I called last minute. Now, I have a pug, so he's more manageable but still. The only reason I am not a regular is because they are farther away from where I live. Yet, I'm certain I'll be back again. You should go too. Also, tell them Lil Wayne the Pug English sent you.
