Our Irish Setter puppy stole our hearts from day one. We are experienced dog owners: beginning with…read morea pair of Irish setters in the 70's, Christopher and Robin, and then two golden retrievers, one at a time, Zaggy and Brady and a Charlie, a Springer Spaniel, the brains of the operation. When an ad for Setter pups appeared in the SR this past February, following our retirement, the opportunity to bring a pup back into our lives was purely irresistible. Fully aware of the exceptional needs of a rambunctious Setter and their adorably proclivity to their reciprocal owner devotion, we brought Snacks Mc Reilly home. Our daughter has relied upon Chris Gentner, the exceptionally experienced dog trainer and owner of Nine Mile Pet Lodge, and continues to trust her precious pets, Blue the St Bernard and then Rosie the white golden, for loving care. Chris has personally worked with us to train Snacks over the course of multiple visits, including pool safety training. While Snacks can be a handful, people constantly comment on how calm he is, sitting nobly to receive greetings and pats from new human friends along with encounters with other tail wagging furry critters. Chris most assuredly ensured Snacks's good manners. Our pup knows Chris cares about him. He is a trusted friend and respected guide, appreciated by us, our family, and our neighbors. For training and lodging, we recommend and commend Chris and Nine Mile Pet Lodge to you and your very own precious tail wagging furry buddy.

As all we pet owners know, it's hard to leave your pets and harder still (at least for me) to feel…read morecomfortable leaving them with someone - no matter who they are. I feel incredibly lucky to have found Amy. My two dogs are special and quirky - as in emotional and shy and don't take to strangers easily. Within ten minutes my Ranger was giving her kisses! I was sold. Amy has a very calm presence and that came through to me and obviously to the dogs. After providing her with a lengthy set of instructions for just visiting them mid-day for potty breaks, she didn't freak out or think I was weird. She was more than willing to do whatever I did so that the pups would keep their routine. In addition to sending me either a text or email after every visit, she also left me a "report card" with how the dogs did and reacted to her which was a nice treat. I like the attention to detail and extra information. It was just like I was there! As a bonus to the report card, Amy also left a couple of homemade treats for the dogs AND a dozen eggs from her own chickens! It's just so comforting to know I can trust and rely on someone to handle things in my absence. I didn't worry for one minute which is an amazing gift for me when I'm away from home. I've already schedule another week with her and have her booked for a long weekend with overnight stays - another nice bonus - no kennels! Amy's prices are reasonable, she is very professional and dependable - you can't go wrong!

We left our three large energetic dogs here for 11-days while we went back east two weeks ago. When we first got there, the dogs were all excited to go in and see their buddies. I think Ezra was disappointed because one of his dog friends was not there this time. The staff meets you at a specific time so that you can offload their bedding, toys and food or talk about any concerns and go over feeding schedules. We opted for a video cam as we'd never left them this long...it was only $5/day and fun to time into the pups and see them. We had them bathed this time and they did a great job and it was very reasonable. We have not used them for training yet. Highly recommend all the staff and the facility is state of art. The outside fences paddocks and security is excellent. Dogs are "interviewed" and are allowed to play together in safe groups without fear of attack. If you want piece of mind, Board here.

So, I had to leave town for the weekend and chose Oak because they board cats and dogs. I liked…read morethe location and the staff. My dog was well cared for and, though she is bossy, was no trouble for the staff. The cat facilities were very primitive, basically a store room, and reeked of untended cat box. An observation justified by the fact that, upon picking up my cat, I discovered she soaked the cat bed in her travel container with urine. The dog will be back but we'll make other arrangements for the cat in future.

I don't think the business is ready for prime time, -Services offered are not price-listed on the website; - 44lb poodle cost $140 to groom = excessive [2x Petco]; -assumed tip was included in that price; -a 4% service charge was added for a credit card without warning! -the groomer cut my dog's face under her eye and didn't fess up. - no follow-up apology has been received; This business won't last is my prediction; they are not customer friendly; but rather rip-off artists.

Debbie also has two dogs of her own who are great with Louie, so no matter what I know he'll have a blast.
