AWITP is much more than just a boarding kennel. Dirk also offers day care, grooming, obedience…read moretraining, and a couple times per week, he and his staff will take the dogs for an actual walk in one of the actually metro parks. The facility was built with dogs in mind...before it was A Walk In The Park, the building was the home of the Toledo Area Humane Society. The building is more than large enough, and the yard is even bigger. The staff is awesome...just plain awesome. You can tell that every single person working here really loves dogs, and the dogs, at least my dog, seems to love all of them. We recently left our puppy here when we weren't able to take him with us on vacation. My wife, who still does Facebook (LOL), logged in daily to see videos and pix of the pack including our boy, so she and the kids (and me too, I guess) felt connected. When we got home and went to pick him up, he was happy to see all four of us, but he didn't want to leave...I guess dogs really are pack animals. We also utilize doggie daycare a couple time per week. As far as pet safety goes, and I might not have this exactly right, but I think the dogs are grouped by age and size. That is, the large breed puppies are kept together, and the small breed puppies are keep together. The large breed adults are kept together...etc. In other words, you don't have to worry about your chihuahua pup getting eaten by a Doberman. Great business, and great location. Five stars.

Dirk is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about dogs. The dogs are engaged physically, mentally and socially while in their care. They are never stuck in a kennel for the day. At night the dogs sleep in bedrooms together with a staff member present at all times. His staff is top notch - friendly, reliable, and well educated on dog handling. AWITP is the only place for my dog care needs - my pup loves her time on the "ranch". I highly recommend!

Our faith in this facility has been rewarded tenfold. Whether in day care or boarding we can leave our dog and have full confidence that he will receive top quality care. His excitement on the route to day care is palpable--he can't wait to arrive and play with his friends. More importantly, the staff is nearly as excited to see him. We were apprehensive about his placement there since we had problems at his other center but those apprehensions are long gone. We heartily recommend Pet Lodge for all your day care/boarding needs.

I know Bodie is in great care with them. He has stayed over the weekends when I am out of town, and goes during the day when I work! He comes home exhausted in the best way! Additionally, Hannah, the newest addition to the team, is an amazing groomer. She takes such care with all she does, and even sent me pictures of Bodie's first day getting pampered! I could not love this business and staff more! They're amazing!

I had positive experiences the first few times I used Nicole and Vroom Grooms, but the last two…read moreappointments were very disappointing. It seems she prefers shaving dogs rather than properly grooming them, and she doesn't appear skilled with curly coats. When discussing my dog's coat, she was condescending, repeatedly calling me "honey" and saying she was trying to "educate me" about how curly-haired dogs should be groomed. Scheduling has also been frustrating. Nicole is very rigid when setting appointments, yet each time I've booked her, she has reached out asking to come earlier. I've always accommodated her requests, but that flexibility isn't reciprocated. After multiple poor experiences, I can no longer recommend Vroom Grooms.

Mia spends the next 30 minutes rolling all over the floor and beds so she can get her doggie stank back on. I have recommended Nicole so many times when someone is looking for a mobile groomer. It must of worked cause she is not taking new clients at this time.
