The Paw Mankato - Freya's 2022 Christmas Photo taken at The Paw

The Paw Mankato

(42 reviews)

My review is based on our experience with The Paw from several years back. I didn't use Yelp then…read morebut they ran through my mind earlier and I decided to leave a review =) We used The Paw's boarding facility two or three times when we were relocating from Texas to Minnesota. I hate leaving our Fred anywhere, and actually only boarded Fred one time after The Paw when we lived in Chicago and travelled home to Texas for Christmas a couple of years later. I felt VERY comfortable leaving our Fred with them The Paw. Their boarding facility was very nice and clean. The dogs were secured in large kennels, and I believe there were little dog cots in each kennel. I remember the employees being very patient with all of our tedious questions, instructions, and preferences. Fred doesn't (and didn't then) have any special issues - we're just neurotic, paranoid pet parents. We're THOSE people. While we were gone I know that I called at least once a day to check in on Fred, and I don't recall feeling like I was putting anyone out or inconveniencing anyone who happened to take my calls. In addition to boarding Fred with them, we also brought him to their groomer, Andrea. I don't know if Andrea is still there at this point, but she always did such a great job for a decent price. Fred never came back to us seeming out of character at all - always happy and pleased. My husband, Fred, and I all loved Andrea! The Paw is a beautiful facility. Very large and nice. Clean and modern. They had a little area in the lobby where they sold leashes, collars, toys, etc. On the opposite side of the lobby they had a nice coffee bar area with tables. They have a wonderful water therapy area and at least one huge indoor play area in addition to the boarding and grooming faculties. Outdoors is a huge outdoor play area that has a rolling garage type door that opens up to a huge interior play/training area. They have toys and play equipment, and even an adorable water facet low on one of the walls for dogs to get drinks from. We visited one Saturday or Sunday morning for a small dog play group. No fee, but it was cold and drizzly outside so we had the place to ourselves! We also attended a precious and fun Halloween party one year. There were plenty of cute pups dressed in their Halloween get ups! I genuinely wish that we had a Paw near us here in Texas. They were (and I would guess still are) a top-notch business. I would not hesitate to take Fred back to them, and I would recommend anyone to them even if they are a good ways out of the way.

Tried calling a few times, and every time it was picked up and immediately disconnected. Guess they…read moredon't want my business.

Dogz & Katz Luxury Pet Boarding

After touring a bunch of boarding facilities we chose to bring our dog to Dogz & Katz. Since our…read moredog is still young we are starting to bring her for a day here and there as a test run. The first stay was great. Carmen took great care of our dog and our dog was happy during her stay. Carmen (owner) keeps you up to date with posts on social media (if you allow the posts of course). The facilities are over the top! Super Clean! Your dog will get a room (yes an actual room) with a view a hammock bed, with bedding and the option to have a kennel/crate if needed. Your pups will not be in a cold chain link kennel like other boarding facilities. Our dog had a great time and received the loving care we were looking for when boarding our dog. Lots of love and room to roam indoors and outdoors. Which of course meant plenty of exercise for our dog. I would highly recommend Dogz & Katz for anyone looking to board their dog (or cat).

From the owner: Luxury dog and cat boarding. Dogs have rooms that are 8' x…read more8' with a window and ceiling fan. The doghouse is ventilated and has UV light irradiation for return air to assist with germicidal protection. Dogs are let out several times a day for 30 minutes of exercise and play. Cats have rooms that are 6' x 8' with a window and outside bird feeder, a cat tree for lounging, climbing and scratching and lots of individualized attention. There is an Executive Suite that is 11' x 12' too!

I am extremely saddened to tell you all that our 6 year old, healthy miniature Australian Shepherd…read moredied in the care of Countryside Animal Hospital and Kennels on Saturday, 8/19/18. She had been there less than 24 hours when they called to tell me they found her dead in an outside lot. The vet suggested that perhaps she had an undiagnosed condition, but if that were the case, he is the one who missed it because he was her vet from the time she was a puppy and she was seen by him regularly. She had never had any serious health concerns. Our dog was athletic and played in our yard every day. When I went to pick up my dog's belongings, I asked to see the place where she died and was shown a dirt lot about 10' x 10' with no shade. I was there at the same time of day when I was told my dog died. There was a large dog turned out in that lot when it was shown to me and he had no water. The bucket, which I presume had been filled with water for the dog, was fairly small for a large dog and probably too tall for a small dog to reach. It was narrow at the bottom and wide at the top and had been knocked over. I saw no evidence of a water stain on the dirt, so can only assume that poor dog had been without water on a hot summer day in full sun for quite a while. I asked the attendant repeatedly to please give the dog some water, but she did not do so while I was there. After seeing the conditions under which dogs are kept at this kennel, I can only conclude that my dog probably died of heatstroke from sun exposure and lack of water. I was also told no one attempted CPR on my dog. I used this kennel because it is run by an animal hospital whom I formerly used as my veterinarian, though I obviously will not be using them going forward. I trusted that they would take good care of my dog while I was away. I had never thought to ask to tour the facility because I assumed -- now I know wrongly -- that they would provide excellent, quality care. When you arrive at the kennel, you can see the nice, large fenced lots that have grass and trees off to the left and that is where I assumed my dog spent her time outside. What you don't see is the small, dirt un-shaded lots they have in the back. If I had known those existed, I never would have left my dog in their care. If you use this kennel, I recommend that you stop immediately. I met with the vet and the kennel manager to advocate for several changes including automatic dog watering dishes that are fixed in place and shade tarps for outside lots with no trees that get full sun. Whether they will implement the changes to avoid having this tragedy happen again, I don't know. Our family is devastated at the loss of our beloved dog. We don't want our precious girl to have died in vain, so I wanted to get the word out to the community in hopes that this does not happen again. I know now that I should tour a place before trusting that the facilities are safe and meet the minimum standard for access to shade and water and I recommend that you do the same.
