Kira as a Halloween pumpkin

I love taking Kira to PawLofts! They take great care of her and also have dog training options. Here's a picture they took of her for Halloween!

Celebrating summer!

I've been taking my dog Blue to Paw Lofts for about 8 months now, and they've been great! I drop him off for daycare every day when I head to work and all the employees know his name and are very sweet with him:) he is always very happy when I pick him up and I know he has a lot of fun with them during the day. The holiday pics are a nice bonus too LOL my roommate and I love to see him dressed up haha!! I've boarded him multiple times for vacations/work trips and paw lofts has been great at giving me updates and making sure he is well taken care of! I believe they even have a vet tech on site which makes me feel even better when I have to go out of town. My experience with them has been great and I trust them to look out for Blue whenever I'm away! I recommend them to any friends/colleagues looking for a boarding facility.

At the risk of exposing my favorite secret...There is no where else I would take my dog than Paw Lofts. My dog loves it so much she would willingly hurl herself out of my car window if it would get her there faster on days we take her in. I have no children by law but my Pepper is an adopted baby. When she was about 5-6 months old, we started taking her to Debbie (the amazing trainer who runs Paw Lofts) for dog manners training, doggy daycare and overnight boarding. Whenever I am parted from my dog, my boyfriend and I can't help but look at each other and ask "what do you think pepper is doing right now?" Answer: having enough fun she forgets about us. They will text or call you with pictures and updates, during the holidays they send you a cute picture of your dog so you don't feel like they're alone on Christmas...I just can't say enough good things. The staff and owner truly care about animals. However, they are popular and don't tell your friends because they already book up so quickly for holidays!

We often use the phrase "life saver" well when it comes to Paw Loft nothing could be truer. Max has boarded here several times and it's always been great, including a swim session over the summer. He refused to swim, just float and Debbie was so so sweet to him. This August I was hit by a car and rushed to the trauma center where I spent a week. Thanks to good friends someone picked him up and arranged his stay. Paw Loft could not have been kinder, they provided numbers to call in the event they needed to get on touch during non business hours. While trying to heal in the hospital I knew I did not have to worry about my sweet boy, that was truly a life saver. Sadly we said goodbye to my sweet boy this month, at the age of 17 (plus) but Paw Loft will always be in my heart and I cannot thank them enough.

I absolutely love this place and so does my pup! Not only do they offer daycare, they offer boarding, grooming, and training. The entire staff is very friendly and will remember your pups name as soon as you walk in. I feel very safe and relaxed letting my fur baby stay here.

My dog with the holiday themed photos. Love paw lofts! They do seasonal pictures and they always turn out so amazing!

Love paw lofts! My dog goes to day care weekly and they do all his grooming. They take such good care of my pup since he was old enough to go. Training for puppies highly recommend! They also do seasonal themed photo shoots.

I was searching for a new boarding places for my dog and came across Paw Lofts. Unfortunately our experience here was far from great. When I initially called, they had me fill out a lengthy survey for boarding which I completed as well as sent vaccination records via email. I called again to ask if I was able to tour the place, and they said they are currently under renovation and to ask in a week. I called a week later and they were still undergoing renovations which is completely understandable! However, I was asked if I could send in the vaccinations record. I responded I already did and they double checked (which shows lack of communication amongst staff). On the day we were going to drop him off, I had a couple questions regarding my dog's stay, so I phoned right before I was going in. A staff member named Michael said they did not have me down for any reservation despite me filling out a lengthy survey and calling multiple times in a couple of weeks. He found it and said to bring my dog in. When I brought him in, I gave them his food (all packaged with labels on them) as well as a cone. Our dog's paws were a little pink and we wanted him to wear a cone to prevent his hot spots from getting worse. When I went on vacation, I phoned Paw Lofts to get some updates. They said they were going to send me pictures and they didn't, so I was a little worried. Michael picked up and reassured me that my dog was anxious. I replied saying that he has separation anxiety and he responds with, "You have separation anxiety as well." I thought it was a rude response, but initially laughed it off. Again, I received no updates or pictures, so the following day, I called again and a girl picked up. She was great in giving me a report on our dog and said that a camera girl would be coming the next day and will provide me with some pictures. Needless to say, we didn't get any pictures and were in the dark during the whole trip. Before I arrived, I called Paw Lofts and let them know that we were on the way. Michael picked up and said he had no record of me picking up my dog - again despite me filling out a lengthy survey in the beginning which asks for dates and times. He said to swing on by afterwards. When we picked our dog up, he seemed anxious (which was fine since we knew he would be a little stressed). I asked one of the staff if they could return his food since I provided extra and they had no idea where his food was. They checked the back twice and came back empty-handed. In addition, our dog's paws were absolutely destroyed. His hot spots were substantially worse to the point where hair had fallen off and it was bleeding. When I voiced concern, Michael tried to mansplain me with a hot spot was and said that he was probably licking it. I said that that was the purpose of the cone. Regardless, we were not notified and they seemed to not even realize how bad his paws were which shows their lack of attention. In conclusion, our experience was extremely bad. I'm sure their grooming and training is a lot different, but if you don't want to be in the dark with how your dog is doing, I would suggest a different facility. Not only did they have no clue where his food was (lack of communication amongst staff), but they failed to even keep us updated - forcing us to constantly call on our vacation.

The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive to my puppy, who thoroughly enjoys her time with the staff and the other dogs! They even celebrate birthdays! I really appreciate that they have the dogs on a regimented schedule instead of confined to one playroom room all day. The dogs have personal time, indoor play, and outdoor play time (each with similar sized dogs). For personal time, each dog has a roomy open-air suite with food/water bowls, a bed, and toys (if you opt to pack them in their daycare bag). For flat-faced breeds like mine, they provide slanted bowls. Although there aren't livestream cameras, the team posts photo dumps to the Facebook group every afternoon (see examples)! Also worth noting, the team is quick to flag any upcoming vaccination needs or behavior changes. They keep a very close eye on the dogs. Lastly, the hours they offer are unmatched. Drop-off opens at 7:30am and pick-up closes at 7:45pm. In summary - The attention to detail that the staff has is exemplary, and their patience and love for dogs fosters a tail-wag inducing environment!

Turns out it was just a miscommunication & I had shown up to the CityVet clinic instead of the Ruffit location across the street. The Uptown location has the 2 entities attached within the same building & I had mistakenly assumed that it would be the same here. Mila is looking forward to her appointment on Monday! Special thanks to Steve & Nicole H. for getting in touch so quickly and ensuring we are taken care of! ** I brought my Frenchie here 2 months ago, and then again today both times for the Bath Works. Our Vet is at the Uptown location & we usually get her groomed over there as well, but they tend to be booked well in advance. This location fit us in same day the first visit, and next day the 2nd (today). I was advised that drop off for grooming is between 7-11am. We arrived at 10 and I called because I assumed they were going to come out and get her like they did last time (COVID measures), but the associate said "no, come on in just wear a mask." So we started walking in the front door and the receptionist turned us around and said to wait outside at the other end of the building...and said she'd check us in. Well, we were standing in the parking lot waiting for someone to get her for 45 minutes, meanwhile 3 other dogs arrived and each got to go right in! I've never had to wait longer than 3-5 minutes when dropping off before, and I HAD an appointment for myself elsewhere scheduled at 11, which I had to cancel at the last minute. At 10:50 I decided to take it as a sign, and we left. Which is unfortunate because now I'm not sure whether to try bringing her back to this Oaklawn location. It's just one of those experiences that puts a bad taste in your mouth

The nice employee let us know the special price $25 (Could be different for every dog since I had 2 little ones) to have a trial day care for the first visit which was cool! They have discounts for boarding & day care if you have multiple dogs too. The employee explained in detail how the entire day schedule would be for the pets that are boarded / day care and it was really cool and nice to hear of all the details and effort they put into each pet they board and day care. All the suites have noise canceling walls which is great so each pet can get some quite time to nap and sleep in case there are noisy neighbors. For my small two doggos I was told it would be around $40 per dog for daycare if I put them together after the first trial of $25 per dog which i think is pretty reasonable especially for the quality of care and nice facility. They have multiple areas of play indoors and outdoors and a sofa room for pets who are more nervous and need extra care. I highly recommend to do a tour of the place and check them out if you ever need any day care or boarding services!

She gets a super short cut, and not once has there ever been a nick, abrasion, illness, or grooming mistake.

I love the consistency in the friendly staff (no high turnover and the manager has been there since it opened over 10 yrs ago) and how they always know who Madeline is. There is also incredible communication with the clients, and the facility is always spotless and smells nice and clean (which is not an easy feat with a bunch of doggie butts running around!)

Their prices are a bit lower than others and I LOVE that they offer Dremel nail service, which is perfect for dogs with long quicks. That confirmed my decision to try this place. It has been a challenge finding anyone who can trim one of my pug's long quicks without hurting him, so I was excited. I dropped the pugs off at 1pm and they were ready around 4:45pm on a Friday (they recently changed grooming services to Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays). The pugs were happy upon pickup and continued throughout the evening as well as smelled pleasant. Their nails looked amazing, and no bleeding occurred. The groomer even showed me her Dremel tool and the safety feature on it to protect dogs' nails. It is always a concerning risk to try a new groomer for various reasons, and I'm so glad I chose Pierre's. I also like that I only needed to show updated rabies vaccinations and not additional shots like many places require simply for grooming. The owner Jobbi managed the phones from the first time I called about pricing and services to scheduling to picking up the pugs. He is extremely friendly and conversational; I never felt rushed. Pierre's is in a cute little house right on Lovers Lane with easy access. I highly recommend them for grooming!

By 5:45 PM, no one had arrived, and my text messages asking for an update went unanswered. Because I had spent my entire afternoon waiting at home, I ultimately had to cancel the appointment myself so I wouldn't miss a family event. Had I not canceled, I would have missed it. What disappointed me most wasn't the delay itself--things happen. It was the lack of clear communication and constantly changing expectations. Had I been told from the beginning that the groomer might not arrive until after 5:00 PM, I could have planned my day accordingly. Instead, I rearranged my entire schedule based on information that kept changing. When I expressed my concerns, the response focused on the fact that they waived a same-day cancellation fee and had already applied a new customer discount. While I appreciate not being charged for an appointment that never happened, I don't consider that a resolution to the inconvenience of spending nearly three hours waiting on multiple inaccurate arrival estimates.
