Since the kennel is next to their house, someone is always available to take care of the pets. Plus, it's a pretty small place, which means each pet gets special attention. The prices are VERY reasonable as well. MUCH better experience then other kennels in the area (even the ones we like!). When we picked up the dogs, we forgot to grab their blanket, and Bill washed it and brought it to our house the next day! Now THAT is amazing service. We will definitely be back.

They must let the dogs run around quite a bit, which is great - because every time I pick up my pup from them she is worn out! they also play relaxing music in the little pup cottage and the lighting is very relaxing (not sure if the dogs care or not) and Bill actually gave me a tip for dogs that maybe don't eat their food when they're in a new place - he recommends putting a little chicken broth in their dry food and that always works for my dog who tends to not eat her food when she's in a new environment. Highly recommend - great folks who really care for the animals that are brought to them.

I have a 4 day work conference in October and needed to do a dry run with my 11 month old pittie. After ***passing*** his 30 minute temperament test (a requirement before they will board your baby), I left him for that weekend while I was home, our first time apart. I was neurotic, he was having a blast. The team sent me videos of him playing the next morning and my heart was warm again. A huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Most importantly, I trust these people. You can't put a price on that. All the staff there are exceptional and care about every one of their pups. Their facility is well laid out, organized and clean. The play yard is also conducive to safety and playtime for my pup. I'll be doing a day care package so he gets socialized. They do it all.

When I finally was back to my phone at 12:30, I text Danielle who is an employee and asked if we could reschedule for the evening drop off time which was indicated to be no issue when we toured the place. I never received a response. I did not text the Specialty Care number because the last time I did to cancel a reservation, they never saw it, and this prevented the spot from being filled. Also, they don't answer their phones, ever, so why would I? Around 5:30pm, I sent a final text as seen in this attachment and basically informed them that they had wasted my time and I had to make new arrangements. Once I received the inappropriate response from Danielle, I decided to send all the screenshots to the specialty care line in hopes Leslie would see them. She called me the next day and proceeded to gas light me into believing this was my fault somehow continuously asking me why did I not call her? Because no one ever answers the phone and it's not my job to chase around the staff when her employee is a representative of the business and should have been able to handle the request. And if she couldn't, then send me to who could. Leslie is not a nice person when you try to give constructive feedback as any normal, reasonable person would do. They wasted my time, caused me distress with having to rearrange boarding and I would urge folks to rethink using this place. I was polite and patient with Leslie but she became aggressive in her tone when I told her this place was not a good fit for us and there wasn't anything g left to discuss. That wasn't good enough. She continued to repeat herself as if I was a toddler she was trying to scold so I just hung up. Very bazaar behavior. I think she was recording the conversation because there have been previous reviews that she likes to threaten to sue you if you tell the truth about the business practices.
