They made special notes in his file, like how he gets anxious in thunderstorms, so they could take special care with his unique personality. When our trip was unexpectedly extended an extra day, they were more than accommodating. They truly went above and beyond to make sure he had everything he needed for the extra day. When our pup was too stubborn to get in the car, they gave me a hand and helped lift him safely into the back of my Jeep for the ride home. Couldn't speak more highly of this amazing place!!

Need to board your dog and forgot his vaccinations they will do it while he is in their care. Easy!!! Didn't groom your dog, nails tapping the floor, they got you. Your furry family member will come home smelling brand new and no more tapping on the floor. Maybe you don't need to board your child but want to pamper him/her they got that. They even offer to do it yourself. Wash and dry pet wash. Just like the car wash. Fun!!! It's hot outside enjoy a private day poolside with you and your friend. They can schedule that. So stop by tell them Zeus recommended this location because there is more than one. Got to go --Zeus is in for a surprise today because he is on his way.

Dr. loverett after two jabs into my dog was unable to give her a rabies shot. At which point I decided to go somewhere else. Also, I got medicine for a yeast infection in her ear that was mislabeled. It was labeled right ear and for a week that's what she got. At which time I went to my regular vet and her infection is in her left ear. The vet showed me it was in her left ear. I tried to get a hold of the office manager, and she declined to take my calls. Instead, they decided to fire me as a patient after going therefore 15 years. If I could give them a zero, I would.

I deeply regret bringing my dog to Holiday Barn Pet Resorts. During our stay, I noticed serious…read moreconcerns about the level of care and cleanliness. My dog became extremely ill after being boarded here, and sadly, we lost them shortly after. When I asked questions, I felt the staff was dismissive and not transparent about what happened. I also noticed several other dogs coughing during pickup, which raised serious concerns about possible illness spreading among pets. A close friend of mine used to work here and shared that some dogs were handled very rough but the owners son. Popping the dogs prong to rough, yanking them onto the grooming table, shoving them into the kennels, kicking them and more , which only makes me more concerned about what happened behind the scenes for my pup.

Additionally (more important to me) it was incredibly clean throughout the resort. The staff has a very organized way of ensuring your pet gets food they need that fits with their routine and also weighs your pet throughout the stay (BONUS: cat food is free). If I ever need to leave town again, I can rest assured that my cat would have a great place to stay here.

I used Happy Camper for several years and my pup always seemed very happy to go. One day last year…read morewhen I picked him up he was limping. I figured he'd just played too hard. That was a $700 sprain, after x rays and treatment. But recently I took him in for a few hours while I had some workmen at my house. When I picked him up he was wet. The owner was there and I mentioned how wet he was. He just blew me off and didn't give me much of a reason why the dog was so wet. Once I got him home I noticed that he had two spots on his head that were bleeding. This was on a Friday. I treated him and watched him over the weekend. He had a lot of mucus from his right eye. Got him into the vet on Monday. Treated with antibiotics. At this point I went to Happy Camper and asked what the hell happened. The owner told me that my dog was bleeding from his tongue! And the reason he was so wet was because they had to wash all the blood off. I was furious. Why hadn't they told me he was bleeding from his tongue? I got the run around from the owner and no real answers. He asked if "some free daycare would help". No. The truth would help. Telling me that my dog was bleeding at the time would have helped. My dog wasn't getting better and his nostril was full of dry boogers. Took him back to the Vet and he was diagnosed with neurogenic "dry eye", meaning that a superficial nerve above his eye was damaged and right eye and nostril won't produce lubrication EVER again. He will be on 2 kinds of eye drops daily for the rest of his life. Greatly increased risk of corneal abrasions. I suspect that my 25 pound dog was attacked by a bigger dog. I trusted Happy Camper to take care of my baby, but instead he was put in a situation where a bigger dog was able to attack him. I was not told about any of it, which means either no one was watching or they saw and didn't want to admit fault. I am furious. I do not recommend Happy Camper to anyone. They broke my trust and now my sweet little boy has a life long condition. The medications are $100 a month and he hates getting eye drops, which I have to give him twice a day. I will never take him back to Happy Camper.

They were so thorough and it made me feel comfortable about where I was leaving him. They also do an assessment of your dog in the form of a half day daycare visit to assess your dogs personality and ensure it's a good fit. While they don't do "report cards" here they post a massive amount of pics at the end of each day showing the dogs in action, which I look forward to! I am truly grateful for Gloria and her team and all that they do for our fur babies! Heads up..there's always a waitlist for new customers due to their growing popularity but it's so worth it!
