    The ONLY place I will ever take my pups Tucker & Hector. They love going to doggy daycare and playing with their friends. They pull me into the lobby, eager to get back and play. I recommend them 1000% for daycare or boarding. Ron the owner and his employees really care and love the animals. I know they are getting the very best care at Paws.

    This is place is fantastic, the girls that work here are super nice, I never had any issues boarding my dog here, she gets an indoor outdoor room with a camera . I highly recommend this place

    My view from the webcam checking in on my boy in the middle of his nap

    I have a 4 year old shih tzu that I've never boarded, so just recently when planning a short vacation I knew I had to find the right place for my boy. I solicited recommendations from my friends and visited each of the 4 places I was considering. Paws Inn was BY FAR the best facility based on first impressions. They have a variety of types of rooms (yes rooms - not cages like most places) including a concrete block room, with a window, wall mounted tv, & "nanny cam" - great for first timers that may get nervous with barking, etc. Their prices are right in line with everyone else in the area. They were the ONLY facility that gave me the option to pay an extra $10 for an evening walk. My dog is small, with a small bladder, & isn't accustomed to holding it from 7pm - 7am, so I gladly paid for the extra outing. From what I can tell, they took him out around 9:30pm. I love that they have webcams so you can watch your dog! Seriously, since I was so nervous leaving him with a stranger I needed the reassurance of being able to check in on him 24/7 to make sure he was alright. The first night he was there, I checked the camera shortly after midnight and could barely make out a blob that may have been my dog. I sent an email asking if something was wrong with the camera & I had a response before I woke up at 6am apologizing and stating the problem was fixed. Excellent response time and customer service!! My only negative feedback, not even worth docking a star, was that they didn't give him his daily greenie, even though I provided an outline of his normal routine and snack schedule. I have no hesitation whatsoever bringing him here again. I may even consider trying their daycare services.

    Photo taken of my camera view on Sat! No food and no a dry water. It was 89 degrees and at least 1 is panting HOT ASF!!!!

    The most awful experience I have had. NEGLECT! NEGLECT! NEGLECT!! Less than an hour after I dropped my dogs off I received a call that they were being aggressive and they'd be monitored. For the next 50 hours my dogs sat in their room without a single walk or bit of attention from any staff member! THEY WEREN'T WALKED ONCE! My dogs peed all over their blankets and floor and were forced to sleep in it! The staff had NO solution to clean it for them to have a clean area to sleep in. After day 1, the ONE water bowl they provided stayed dry! You can see on the video it was dry and when I went back to pick my dogs up I saw it was dry! We live in FLORIDA, it's 90+ degrees outside! How NEGLECTFUL! It's HARD TO BELIEVE that an accredited facility wouldn't have a solution for an aggressive dog outside of PURE NEGLECT! No water! No walks! What did I pay $250+ for???? The owner says their camera system records however he cannot provide me any footage of my dogs being cared for OR aggressive!! STAY AWAY! BOARD ELSEWHERE! They DO NOT care about your animals!!!!

    My pup loves this place and she always comes back home exhausted which is very helpful for me to get some rest. The staff has been very friendly and I like their Covid precautions with curbside pickup. Finally, it's great that they have cameras and you can always check up on your pups if you start missing them.

    Love this place and so does my Pup Zeus! We've been coming to PIP for about 4 months and it has really been a great experience for him And his social skills. Zeus is 11 month old rescue who had been attacked by a Bigger dog at 4 months, and coming to PIP has really helped him over come his fear and aggression of other dogs. The girls there are always smiling and friendly when we come in to drop Zeus off for Doggie Daycare, they always take time to talk. I also really like the video cameras in the Daycare rooms so I can see how things are going. Zeus loves going and so do I as it gives him a Energy outlet, he's always exhausted when he comes home!

    My puppy and I recently moved to St. Pete. As most dog owners can relate, finding a new day dare and home away from home can be stressful. From the moment my puppy and I walked in the door we both have had the best experience. Everyone is so friendly and they really invest in getting to know your furbaby! I travel a lot for work and they are beyond flexible if my schedule changes last minute. I can keep going on and on about how great Paws Inn Paradise is. I highly recommend them for you and your furry family!

    We have been using Paws Inn for 12 years and couldn't imagine using another pet sitter. I am a super crazy dog mom and trust all of the Paws Inn staff completely to care for my pets. We use Paws Inn multiple times a year and my dogs are always super loved on and cared for when they stay. I honestly can not say enough positive things and super highly recommend them!

    We will absolutely use this facility to board our girls again. We've used them a couple of times but the true testimony was when we left them for 2 weeks here. Our babies are home cooked for and we had all their food pre packaged, meds they may need and specific instructions (lots of them). We were so nervous to be away from them for that long but we should not have been. They did an excellent job caring for our babies! They were healthy and happy when we arrived. This is our place from now on! Thank you Paws Inn Paradise, and Bella & Gracie thank you too!!h

    I have been going to Paws Inn Paradise for almost a year. I bring my dog there at least 2 times a week for daycare and for about 5 months we would leave him there one night a week over night so he could play with dogs and to wear him out. (He is now a 1 year old pure bred German shepherd) I was referred to this place by my neighbor. His dog LOVED this place. He said it had webcams so you can watch your dog, it's all indoors and the staff is always there to watch and make sure everything is ok. I have NEVER had an issue with this place. When I arrive, everyone knows my dog and they greet him instantly. About a month ago I dropped him off on a Saturday morning so I could run some errands and so he could play. About an hour after I drop him off, I receive a call from the owner telling me that my dog was aggressive towards another dog and that they had to remove him from daycare. I was shocked. I take this dog to dog parks all the time and his best friend is a little English Bulldog. I have NEVER seen my dog aggressive. I tell the owner, Ron I will be there in ten mins to get him, and that I am extremely sorry that he was aggressive and I hope that he didn't injure anyone. On my way there I call my husband because I can't fathom that my dog could ever be like that. My husband agrees that Bishop isn't aggressive and he feels like it's a miscommunication. As soon as I arrive to Paws Inn Paradise, Ron greets me at the door and tells me that he is sorry but there was a mix up. It was not my dog that was aggressive; it was his doppelganger that got out of control. Which at the time I was extremely relived to hear that my dog was in fact not the aggressive dog. He apologized and said that he would not charge me for day care. Well, I was under the influence that there is a NO AGGRESSIVE tolerance at day care. Meaning if your dog gets kicked out for fighting, your dog shouldn't be able to come back. ESPECIALLY if he a repeat offender. I came back Saturday evening to get bishop and who do I see in the daycare room with all the dogs? Bishops doppelganger, the same dog that was kicked out hours before for being aggressive. Fast forward. This past weekend, I dropped my dog off Friday for his regular day of daycare. Saturday afternoon we took him back and left him there over night. Early Sunday morning we pick him up. My dog was absolutely exhausted and I didn't think anything of it. Monday my husband and I came home from work and notice a mark in between my dogs ribs. We immediately jump down to the ground to examine what it is. To our surprise, we find a hole in between his ribs. I don't know what caused it. It appears to look like a gun shot wound but I know it isn't. We panic and rush him to the vet. On the way to the vet I call Paws Inn Paradise to see if there was any record of anything. (They are suppose to record incidents and are suppose to inform you of anything that happens) The girl I spoke with put me on hold for about 5 mins to go check the log of the weekend and to ask someone who was there. She tells me "This weekend was actually a pretty calm weekend, we had no fights and everything went smooth" I asked her to have the owner call me as soon as possible because my dog was inured and I want to know how this happened. About ten mins later Ron calls me. I ask him what happened this weekend and he says "well your dog was aggressive all weekend; he was being a bully & picking fights with other dogs we had to take him out of daycare and put him in a private room" Well first of all, if he was in fact aggressive, why did the girl I speak with not have it in her record? Why was I not informed of his aggression and further more why was I charged for daycare if he was in fact not in daycare? Ron tells me that it is not their job to baby-sit these dogs every minuet of everyday. Is that not what dog daycare is? If I wanted to have my dog unattended all day I could just leave him at home. I pay for DAY CARE so you can keep an eye on him. At this point I am completely out raged by their negligence to my animal. I easily spend $400+ a month at this place only to find out that it is a dog free for all. Ron tells me that hes sorry that my dog is injured but it is not their fault. I hang up because I am extremely upset and disappointed. We finally arrive to my vet who thankfully rushed us through to be examined. They said that they can't tell what caused the hole but they said it happened probably Friday or Saturday by the amount of healing that has already taken place. They said it was infected but since it was already healing he didn't need stitches. They shaved the spot and cleaned it out, gave us some antibiotics and the cone of shame and we were on our way home. Thankfully he didn't need stitches but at the same time this establishment shouldn't have been so negligent toward my animal. My dog should not of had to of gone through this and I should not of been responsible for the bill.

    While staying at Paws of Paradise her tail was slammed by a door
    Robbie E.

    I took my dogs to Paws Of a Paradise. One golden retriever and a puppy chocolate lab. My puppy was injured while staying there by her tail being caught in the door. They had to take her to the ER when The doctor had to cut the remaining part of her tail off. Such a bad experience! Ron told me accidents happen then that's when I got upset telling him it could of been prevented. He told me that I was lucky he paid the vet bill because he's not respondsible for anything that happens while in his care. & that I could sue him if I liked with a smile on his face! Not once did anyone seem remorseful for their actions he just kept defending his actions saying it was an accident. I leaves dog in your care to take care of him, not to come back to find my 2 month old pup with a cone around her head and the remaining tail bandage up. Oh by the way Ron said he has 123 other dogs to worry about and hard to keep your eye on all of them that's the problem there too many dogs not enough help.

    Loved watching the pup on the Doggie Cam!

    See all

This was our first time ever leaving our 4 dogs so to say I was nervous was an understatement. The Pocono Pet Nanny's Bed and Biscuit is probably one of the nicest and cleanest places I have ever seen.There are several themed rooms along with beds, TVs and music playing. There is a fenced in area that the dogs can go out to run and do their "business" which worked out well for my dogs since they are used to a fenced backyard. The check in process was great. Jan is very organized and takes lots of notes on each dog. She allowed me to bring in our dogs' bedding, crates and bowls which was fantastic because our dogs were so used to their own things. I will admit I was crying when I left the dogs  but knew I made the BEST decision leaving them with her. Throughout my trip I received texts and pictures updating me on each of my dogs. Never once did I question if my dogs were okay: I knew they were in the best of hands!  Thanks to Jan and her staff, my family and I were able to enjoy our first trip ever. I had such peace of mind! Prior to booking our dogs' stay, Jan was great at communicating with us and never hesitated to answer my (many, many) questions. I was a bit nervous because our one dog is very food aggressive. Jan had no problem taking him in and even fed him in a separate area. She and her staff are "pet people" and truly have love and compassion for animals. Our family never traveled because we did not want to leave our dogs, but I have a feeling our visit with the Pocono Pet Nanny might change things for us. We highly recommend Jan (Pocono Pet Nanny) and will use her again in the future. Thank you Jan and your amazing staff for a job well done!! We can't thank you enough!! Thank you!
