I was hesitant at first because of all the "professionals" out there, but it was totally worth it. Eric and Sam were so patient with me and took their time teaching me everything I needed to know so that my dog would continue to be successful. Secondly, I am a terrible procrastinator and things completely slip my mind. Multiple times they have worked with me last minute to get my pups in for boarding. Most importantly, my dogs love it there! I will forever recommend Katz. Even to my friends that live in Philadelphia!

Do not take your dogs to this kennel if you truly care about your dogs!!! The rescue I volunteer…read morewith learned the hard way. There is no way to know the level of care the dogs receive while here. Vicki is an older woman who has one staff member who helps in the mornings. This is the second kennel we have dealt with who have the funds and don't hire staff, which can only point to greed. That means Vicki herself is taking caring of her human partner in the home and their 8 animals, as well as the countless dogs being boarded there. Vicki is so up and down mood wise. She's terrible to "work with". She has been over 30 minutes late numerous times when dogs are being picked up or dropped off by rescue volunteers. She made everything difficult for the rescue I volunteer with, almost causing countless volunteers to quit. She makes up rules and regulations as she pleases. She has 3 dogs who were abandoned at the kennel who she won't even allow to find homes, instead they rot in those kennels. She has a Pitbull, shepherd, and senior Chihuahah who were dumped there and live there to this day. She had a rescue at her finger tips who has helped placed other abandoned dogs and yet she would rather these poor dogs suffer in a cage for the rest of their lives. This is not someone who cares about animals. This is someone who cares about money and that's it. The kennels are in bad shape and instead of repairing them, she doesn't. She has her own partner's dog and 2 cats inside the home. She has 2 of her own dogs in the home who live solely on the porch and 1 more who lives in the indoor kennels. These animals are not getting the attention and care when there are at least 20 kennels who often have animals in them. That is around 27 animals being fed by 1 person at night and 27 being fed in the morning by 2 people. Take your dogs to a kennel who truly cares about their dogs, who allow you to see the kennels with your own eyes and who have STAFF. This place needs to be shut down and it's only a matter of time until it happens.

Poor Customer Service and Poor Communication! I expressed my disappointment with how I was handled…read moreand now I MUST PAY CASH to get my Dog when previously I have swiped!!!!!!!!!!!! I dropped off my dog on the 25th of June 2024, Tuesday at 7 pm! Originally I asked if I could drop the dog off on Wednesday at 7 am due to my tight work schedule and the early flight. I was told no and was asked if could I come up with a better time. I asked if I could change it to Tuesday at 9 pm and was told that it was a better time! I did not stick to that time and was able to get my dog over earlier at 7 pm on Tuesday. I dropped off the dog with no problem, I was met outside and asked when I would be back. I said on Sunday I would be back to pick up Ivy. At that time I was not told that Sunday there are limited hours for pick up 5 pm to 7 pm. Fast forward to Sunday! I texted at 11 am in between connecting flights to inform Beech Hill I would be there at about 1 pm. When I landed at PHL I texted again I was on my way. I did not receive a response to either text. I figured maybe they were busy. I called when I arrived, there was no answer ....I texted that I was there and a woman came out walked passed me and asked if was I being helped. I explained I texted and called. I then received a long text about how the hours are 5 pm to 7 pm and have been for 40 years. I asked can you please make an exception because I was traveling for 12 hours. I was told no and was told how I have been giving exceptions in the past. I asked what acceptions. I was then told that I don't seem to accept that Beech flexibility has been done as a courtesy! My question is what exceptions have been made in the past? I was told the Kennel is full it is a Holiday weekend that the dogs are sleeping that Beech Hill will not stir that kennel up and that accepting it would be additional work. I was told that she was the only one there. This was not true there was another woman there that passed by me and asked was I being helped. I said this was the last time Beech Hill would receive my $$$$. I was then told that I must pay cash and they were not accepting cards, I never paid CASH and I asked if it was just me that you are not accepting cards or if is this for everyone. After that it was crickets! If you have limited hours why not tell the person as they drop their dog off (Sunday)? I feel disrespected and not valued as a customer. Why not let me know when I texted earlier on Sunday that I must come between the hours of 5pm to 7pm. Customer service is about the relationship between the customer and the business! The lack of communication disappointments me and how I am being handled! I have never paid cash and I do not walk around with hundreds of dollars! I have in the past swiped and my question is why now? I would love to post the text between us and I know that is not the proper way of handling this! I would love for the owner to reach out to me personally maybe should we like to read the texts!!!!!!!

Based upon the booking screening, it was clear that the company is professional, well-run, and focused. They provide transportation for your pet to and from their boarding stay and even provide daily pictures of your pet via text. We were very happy with the arrangements until, in the middle of our vacation, we were told that our dog had an episode of weakness and was rushed to our vet whose information we provided at booking. Andrew stayed with our pet and transported him to the overnight Emergency vet for observation. Everything turned out fine and Andrew picked up our pet to finish his stay. Andrew went out of his way and not only did everything for our pet that we could have done, but he also kept us informed and comforted. The integrity, compassion, and dedication that PetsAreInn demonstrated during our time of deep concern helped us greatly and made us happy we chose a stay with a family in their home versus in a traditional pet kennel. Andrew at PetsAreInn was our pet's guardian angel, and we will look forward to using his service without hesitation going forward.

I'm emotional writing this, as my sweet dog passed away unexpectedly in March, but this is a long…read moreoverdue review. To fellow dog parents, I cannot thank this place enough for the care they provided my Great Dane, Mattis, over the past 3 years. Their employees have always been kind and truly enjoy spending time with the dogs. There was always a warm welcome, "Mattis! Hey buddy" before we had even checked in -my dog LOVED going here. The general manager, Antoine, is seriously the nicest and most thoughtful person. Anytime a dog got sick, he'd let us know when and what symptoms to be on the lookout for in our own dog. Mattis would break a nail, Antoine would call me to let me know and what he was doing about it, and then I'd pick Matt up at the end of the day with a bandage carefully wrapped on his foot. He knows each and every dogs' personality, who to separate, who plays well together, when certain dogs need a break inside etc. Antoine, your care, hard work and attention to detail made us immensely comfortable leaving Mattis during the workday, I am so grateful! The owners are friendly and heavily involved, it's common to see them at pickup/throughout the week. My work schedule could be hectic, a few times Matt was the last to be picked up and they were always gracious about it. There's nanny cams of the dogs every day. And my most FAVORITE part, we would get multiple texts/photos of our guy every time he stayed with them. Mattis would get so excited at morning drop off and come home exhausted from a fun day playing with his doggy companions Living in a city apartment and having a fully in-person job can make dog ownership difficult at times, I'm thankful Mattis had a wonderful place to stay and play during working hours. Forever grateful for you all!

I am super grateful to the staff here for taking such good care of my sweet but somewhat anti social dog while I am away, and for always being so communicative about how she is doing and any small issues that arise during her stay. The space is clean, they are strict about capacity, and they do a thorough socialization check prior to allowing dogs to come for boarding or daycare. This past weekend, I had an issue arise where my sitter had to leave town unexpectedly. DoggieVIP absolutely saved the day by allowing my dog to come stay for the weekend on late notice. They answered my panicked texts and calls immediately and took such great care of Fred while I was away. This spot is great about sending photo updates and all reservations can be made via text message, which makes scheduling a breeze. I will continue to use this location and their Riverwalk location anytime I travel. So grateful and can't recommend them enough!

I highly recommend trying them and seeing how much your dog will love it.
