The owner was very comfortable with my dogs, one of which is a 110 lb German Shepard. Both dogs warmed up to him immediately. The dogs had large runs with outdoor access and a large outdoor area to play in. The kennel itself is exceptionally clean. They were very well taken care of and I feel comfortable leaving them as I know they are in good hands.

Myself and my year old boxer, Junior, were staying in the State College area for a month while visiting from CA. In a pinch, I needed a place to board him while I flew to Canada. I checked out several other places and Golden Wood seemed the only safe place to board him. It was only 20 minutes from the airport as well. Overall, I was very pleased with the experience. They posted photos of Junior everyday while I was gone along with a status report. When I picked him up, he was well groomed and very happy. I would have given them a 5 star review had I had more experience with them. Additionally, for those of us that live outside of the area, the value for money was very good.

The next morning I called, talked with a wonderful lady and arranged for our vet to fax all of our pup's records. I was sooo thankful that they had room for him to stay the weekend! He loved it, I enjoyed seeing his pics on FB AND when we picked him up he had a 'report card' and received an A+ and was welcome back anytime. We LOVED that he was exhausted for our 1.75 hr ride home too I only wish they would branch out because we live too far away to bring him by regularly. You would do a great business in Conneaut Lake, Pa! Thank you! Cooper and his family loved it!

I was so happy to find a groomer locally that was top notch from the first phone call through pick…read moreup! My puppy Honey is 6 1/2 months old and I needed to find somewhere close to get her groomed. After having other groomers in town not return my texts and phone calls I decided to call Sandy Hill. Not only was the gentleman on the phone pleasant. But he was able to get me an appointment for the very next day. I also like the fact that Sandy Hill requires proof of vaccines, rabies shots, kennel cough, etc. prior to taking on a new puppy. When I got there for her appointment at 1 o'clock they were already waiting for me. They took a picture of her for her file, petted her up a little bit so she would be comfortable and asked specifically what I wanted done during the grooming appointment. I was told that it would be about an hour and a half and that I would get a phone call when she was done about an hour and 15 minutes later, I received a call from her groomer, letting me know that she was all done and adding that she did exceptionally well considering that she's just a puppy. When I got there, the groomer brought her out showed me what she did and handed me a report card that also outlined her appointment, she also proactively made an appointment eight weeks out for me so that I didn't have to worry. The location is about 13 minutes from the center of Saxonburg, and is located off of Sandy Hill Road. The kennel and grooming complex itself was spotless, it was immediately evident that it was a classy, well taken care of business. I will for sure be taking honey back and having Christine groom her again!

When inquiring about the charge, i was told that grooming is a separate service and we should have known to inquire what the fee would be. The front desk has no accountability or responsibility for grooming pricing. I find that as a full service business, that is not a very customer friendly response and quite frankly, in other kennels i have used, the bathing was always included in the overall kennel stay. I will be taking my business elsewhere.

Lifeless, beat up,and It breaks our heart that our loving pup wasnt very happy to see us. Her paws are cut, blistered and bleeding. The black part of her nose is scratched and she has a big swollen scratched mark on her snout. The kennel owners excuse for the cut nose was that she stuck into a rough part of the fence repeatedly. We called and the owner said she was fine.. Calm and eatting... We are very upset with how poorly our dog was taken care of. We will NEVER take her back there!!!!!

Upon returning home he has had multiple accidents in the house as well as vomiting . The diagnosis is giardia. Fortunately it will go away without treatment but the stress on our pup is heartbreaking. Not to mention, I've now had to disinfect our whole home bc this parasite can be spread to humans. I've never seen a dog projectile vomit until now. This is a very bad intestinal parasite and could have been avoided. Is this coincidental, maybe? According to the vet if proper precautions and care are practiced, this is avoidable.

Frankly I've had a couple of sitters ramp up Cleo's separation anxiety. The first time I contacted Lisa, I knew she actually cared for animals. It's not just a job to her. Lisa came over to introduce herself to me AND Cleo. I was delighted to find out Lisa and her pet sitters would actually visit with Cleo - take the time to care for her in ways beyond pouring food in the bowl or walking. It has been immensely reassuring to receive text updates and pictures each time a visit occurs. When I get back, Cleo is calm and happy to see me - not trembling like the time I picked her up from the vet's. The fee is so very reasonable allowing me to ask that Cleo have 3 visits a day while I'm gone. I feel so fortunate to have found this service.
