Lisa is the best, works with you and your dog and delivers results. Her follow up visit is fabulous and helped us to understand the training and process to keep the training working.

Writing this review while a bit upset. We are from S. Carolina and decided to go to Lexington to…read moreattend Keeneland Racetrack. We own a 14.5 lb. Shih-Tzu, and we had to do something with her while we went to the track. I found Dogtopia on the internet and it sounded ideal for keeping her for the day. I set a time for a meet and greet which was scheduled the day of boarding. We arrived and filled out paperwork. We noticed a large room with maybe 30 dogs of all different breeds and sizes. We were told this was not normal as they usually separate large and small dogs. Anyway, they asked us to sit for a few minutes while they judged how our dog would fit in. We were informed our dog failed their test and they would not be able to keep her. We were told our dog actually bit (nipped) the employee and did not interact well with the other dogs. Our Shih-Tzu does suffer from anxiety, and she does get aggressive when frightened. In that environment, there is no doubt she would be scared. I don't doubt anything the employee said but we told him she was crate trained and I noticed two small dogs in crates. It blows my mind while they didn't keep her in the crate for the 6-7 hours they kept her. Needless to say, we did not get to Keeneland and headed back to South Carolina a day early. We did not get a chance to comment on the care at Dogtopia. Please be aware if you decide to use their services, there is a Pass/Fail test as part of the meet and greet. In addition, we used the services of a doggie daycare in Myrtle Beach, SC when our dog was several months old. What we observed at Dogtopia did not measure up to the standards of the Myrtle Beach facility.

My dog loves to go here. They treat her very well. She has fun playing with the other dogs.read more

I take my dog to Uptown for both grooming and boarding. It is on the pricier side, but that is…read moretotally worth it for the peace of mind I have while he is staying there. The staff are so kind and flexible with travel changes (if you need to pick up earlier or stay an extra night) which is really helpful when flying. They have a great pre-check feature where you can give a lot of detail on your dog's stay. I typically send toys that I don't mind losing just as a precaution, but they've never lost anything I've sent with my dog and everything comes back neatly packed in his bag. I don't worry about my baby at all while he is at Uptown.

Avoid this place! Disappointing to board your dog for several days, you communicated to them the…read moreinstructions for care, including 2 cups food a day that were measured out in separate ziplock bags for each day,along with a bone for each night for them to chew while away from home, only to find after pickup in the bag at home all of the bones- so they were not unwrapped at all and offered or given. I noticed my dog's food bags had maybe 10% gone. I know some dogs may be nervous and not eat, but that and the wrapped bones still in the bag?? Also my pooch came home with scrapes of some sort on her chin- they could have at least told us. They have a live camera where you can check in online, each time I did all the like-size dogs were inside together in a playroom. Note that playtime is paid for, separate from boarding fee. They didn't change it up for variety with good weather, low effort. I am left feeling sad for my dog and irritated at the incompetence and wish I had trusted a different boarding facility. As a loving pet owner do not trust this business!

Where do I begin? I cannot say enough good things about your business. You are so much more than…read morejust a boarding facility. Your caring and attentiveness to our animals was phenomenal (and we have some pretty needy pups lol). Your updates with photos and videos helped us to relax while we were on vacation, and by the looks of it they had their own puppy staycation. We were a bit concerned for a second, while they were having their pool time, play time and occasional strolls through the trees we weren't sure if they would ever want to leave the Bark of the town dog spa You have a true passion/love for animals, this is clear. For this we truly appreciate you, what you do and for loving our four legged fur babies. To sum up, I wanted to give a bad review because I feel like I found a gold mine and I don't want to share...but others need to know you're there so they can feel relief when they leave their animals. Thank you again. YOU ARE AMAZING!! P.S. After swimming in (what prob felt like an Olympic size pool to our Kimber) my husband said this is what she's been reduced to!! lol Time for us to upgrade lol

Christine Martin is an absolute gem, and has created such a safe, loving, and reassuring…read moreenvironment where we can leave our pup, who is basically our daughter since we do not have children. We have boarded Pokey at Pet Companions Country Inn many times now, for up to a full week at a time, and she has always come home happy, healthy, clean, and well nourished. I can see why she has so many loyal clients, many whom appear to have been bringing their animals to her for well over a decade. Our pup gets many hours of play time each day, as well as her own space and time to rest and retreat to regularly. Christine is such an intuitive person; she appears to own many different types of animals of her own and she can observe and sense which dogs will have good chemistry together in play groups, as well as individual dogs' needs and 'personalities'. The property where the kennel is located is serene and beautiful. I love that it is next to owners' residence, so that somebody is on premises around the clock. The kennels are spacious and safe, with indoor and outdoor runs that Christine and her staff thoughtfully manage. The pickup/dropoff hours are absolutely worth managing your own trip schedules around. Other pet boarding places might have superficial bells and whistles that take resources and focus away from what really matters: a safe second home for your pup. I would not think of boarding my dog anywhere else. Thank you to Christine and your wonderful staff for everything.

I rarely ever leave a review but I had to, to warn other customers of my recent experience…read more I have been boarding my dogs for a couple years now at Keshlyn Kennel and they have always been super amazing at taking care of my 2 small dogs until recently. I tried to board my dogs for 5 days in August 2025 and was told that they are no longer boarding dogs 12 years and older. This policy isn't located anywhere on their website. I honestly feel and believe that they are discriminating against myself and my dogs because they recently stayed for 2 weeks in July 2025 with no issues other than having to put padding on the walls due one of my dogs being blind. I have spent literally thousands of dollars here and have been a loyal respectful customer for years. BEWARE IF YOU ARE TRYING TO ESTABLISH CARE FOR YOUR DOGS WHILE OUT OF TOWN DO NOT USE THEM. THEY MAKE THEIR OWN RULES AND POLICIES AND THEY ARE DIFFERENT FOR EVERY CUSTOMER/DOG.

Oh wow! I am already excited about leaving my cat here. Look at the star review on this place!…read more So I am looking to move my crazy kitten, Wilde, soon to be a cat and he is still non neutered. There are limited amount of places who will take a non neutered male and I am so glad that this place is one of them. Their boarding process is easy as a new client. Fill out some forms and have your pet's medical records on your phone or documented. CON: THEY DO NOT ALLOW FOR EXTENDED STAYS. I want to leave my pile of fur and claws there for a month, visiting every two weeks and the representative stated that "The best you could do is leave him for two weeks and then take him for two days and then bring him back for another two weeks." Suggestion: I wish they would allow vets to fax over or email over pet medical records. I went to actually check this place out today in person and it seems like there is a lot going on. It definitely feels like it is in a rural part of Lexington, if that makes sense. I do not like the back roads I have to take to get here. Tates Creek also bisects the road to this location, but it is down like two lanes (one coming and one going).
