    TJ

    I boarded my beloved senior dog with dementia and anxiety with Furry Friends. He is on anti anxiety meds at home already which he needed as he gets confused. I was told one day into it that he was not responding to the additional Gabapantine they were giving him. And that he was crying and barking. I went to the webcam to check up on him and sadly, they had a panel in front of his suite. I could barely see him but he was pacing around his suite. O called to check up on my baby and was told that the panel was so that he will not be able to see outside and disturb the staff and other dogs as he was apparently needing attention. Three days into it, I was told that TJ is not responding to his meds and was too anxious and that it isn't healthy for him. I was asked to pick him up right then and there or we will have to end our vacation and fly back from Hawaii. That he was a distraction to the staff and other dogs. Apparently they had to medicate the dog next to his suite because he started to bark as well. Luckily, my son was home and able to pick TJ up. I am a mom of a senior dog and I felt that he was kicked out because he didn't fit their standard of a well behaved, cute, dog who doesn't bark. Very exclusive hotel. I continued with my vacation although I was so upset that a pet hotel whose staff are supposed to be dog lovers are not capable of taking care of a little challenged dog. If my dog is crying then he must sense a negative environment. I noticed that this hotel is too quick to give Gabapentin just to quiet the dogs. I wonder what they would have done if I couldn't get a flight home soon enough for them. Will they take him to a Shelter? My heart ached for my senior dog. I felt that they rejected my baby. Sure, if your dog is well behaved, quiet and obedient, go for it. Stephanie, I was disappointed that as the resort manager, you did not directly speak to me about kicking out TJ. How would you feel if TJ was your dog? I rarely give a review, but this is an important issue that dog owners need to be aware of. July 19,2025 Tried to email Furry Friends asking for a copy of TJ's medicine record but unable to send as they had blocked me from their box. They not only rejected my dog, they denied me from my rights to a review, good or bad. They didn't earn 5 stars from me. I wished that I had taken a photo of that panel. Pet parents, do surprise webcam views, Not scheduled. Unbelievable!

    I have been taking my dogs to the Cuyamaca Animal hospital their entire lives pretty much. It was only natural that I'd seek the same owners out to take care of my furry animals when I'm on vacation as well. It was piece of mind knowing if they had any health emergencies, the vet was in the same building to take care of the. Also since the staff worked for Cuyamaca Hospital, I knew they would properly take care of them and be knowledgeable. This kennel has always been the place where I leave my dogs when taking vacations abroad and I've yet to experience any issues. The Furry Friends resort has grown substantially since it's existence, they moved into a larger retail spot across the way and now have amazing updated facilities. Everytime I've visited I was impressed with the cleanliness and the way staff interacted with the animals. Their prices are a bit higher than many other places, but it's worth it in my opinion and I think others agree as well. The resort is constantly booked with animals and remember to schedule ahead as it's hard to reserve days around holidays and common vacation times. Furry Friends Resort has been the only placed I've recommended to people to leave their animals when away on vacation.

    Pretty sure this says it all

    Picked my dog up from her first time here and she was in an incredible mood. The staff said she did well, and they were able to get her to open up and come out of her shell! Everyone was incredibly nice and helpful at every step, from the initial request for information, to scheduling the tour, to getting them the paperwork, to the free half day.

    They should allow dogs who bark a lot. The staff were nice though so I'm happy about that.

The staff was nice and welcoming, and the lobby was clean and well kept. I brought my dog in for a nail trim, which they handled quickly and professionally. The only hiccup was with the walk-in policy. Online, nail trims are listed as a walk-in service, so I stopped by assuming it would be straightforward. When I arrived, they explained that walk-ins are only allowed during certain hours on certain days. To their credit, they made an exception since they weren't busy at that moment, which I appreciated. That said, it was a little frustrating because that information isn't listed on Yelp or their website -- it's only posted on a sign inside the shop. I'd still come back because the service itself was good, the staff was kind, and the prices are fair. I'd just recommend calling ahead to confirm hours if you're planning to use a walk-in service. Suggestion for the owners: it would really help customers if the website and Yelp page clearly listed the walk-in hours so people know what to expect before they arrive. TL;DR: Affordable, clean, and friendly dog grooming spot with convenient parking. Just call ahead if you're planning to walk in for services like nail trims, since the walk-in hours aren't currently listed online.

    "While looking for a dog groomer for my elderly neighbor's dog, I was turned down a few times…read morebecause they required appointments, and I didn't have time to schedule one this week. The dog really needed grooming. Finally, I came across this business on Google and saw their great reviews. I called and spoke with Monica, explained the situation, and she was able to get me in within two hours. I am so grateful for her. From the moment we spoke, she was kind, caring, and incredibly helpful. When I arrived, she examined the dog's coat and clearly explained the process and services included. The prices were great--especially considering all the services included with the full grooming (bath, haircut, nail trimming, and more). I was honestly surprised at how reasonable the price was. On top of that, due to the circumstances, they even gave me a discount to help my elderly neighbor. That truly says a lot about their character and their business. They are so sweet and caring with the dogs. I highly recommend them to anyone--you won't regret it!"

They had a process, from intaking me as a customer, to filling out the proper paperwork (as a first time customer for them). When I came in they did an analysis on my dog to determine what is needed, and asked me what I would like to have happen. They did a great job on grooming my pet and make sure he smelled good at the end. They provided me recommendations on how often to come in. They gave my dog praises and a treat once he was done. They provided pictures of how the results were prior to my picking him up. They provided in detail any items to pay attention to that they noticed. Great job on being thorough and taking care of the customer. Great job on treating other customers (not just myself, but I observed how they treated others as well). If there were any downsides to mention, it would be that their prices are a little more on the premium side than what I'm used to (as my previous groomer for my dog parted ways with her employer, so I had to find a new one). What to prep for before coming here: Know when the last rabies shot is Take a look at their website to manage expectations (on what services they provide)
