Everyone got along fine and we were all set to board our pups when my wife took ill and couldn't make the trip. I went without her and she was home with our dogs. Flash forward to December. We went to Las Vegas for 3 nights and left Tango and Jack with Mike and Beth. Communication was good and Mike sent us emails with photos and even a short video. The dogs are our "babies" and although we missed them very much, it did a lot to ease our minds about the care they were receiving while we were gone. I can highly recommend Mike and Beth of Howling Good Dog Boarding to anyone who needs to board a fuzzy family member. Now that we've found them, we will always leave the care of our dogs to them when we go out of town. Thank you Mike and Beth for taking such good care of our "boys."

Highly recommend 'Howling Good Dog Boarding'. The process was easy, individualized & professional…read more Michael requires a meet & greet ahead of time (which is a great time to ask tons of questions, see how your dog and his cute Basset Hound interact, and how Mike interacts with your dog). Mike was great about sending me video & picture updates while we were on our trip. He's very knowledgeable about dogs, answered all my questions and my dog, Ozzie left happy and worn out! I felt MUCH better about leaving my best buddy in Mike's hands than at a big boarding facility where there's SO many dogs, so much potential for accidents, and not personalized to your dog. Mike is also insured (for peace of mind) and understands that dogs have quirks (mine has food allergies & separation anxiety). I'd give him 10 stars, if I could! We will be back!

So I just want to say she is the most compassionate and caring person. If you're concerned about who's going to take care of your pet while you're out of town look no further. Always very professional, and courteous. Plus my animals just love her! It gives me such peace of mind when I go out of town, to know that my animals are going to be well taken care of and loved while I am away. She takes pictures of them every day at the conclusion of her walks or feedings.. and sends them to me b/c she knows that I am very anxious about being away from them. I just can't speak highly enough about her..anyway thanks so Daryn. You're like a part of our little family now.

Pros: she showed up everyday, cost was reasonable. Cons:…read morewater was not refilled for two weeks, it seems that no / minimal attempt was made to find or play with the pet. I traveled internationally for two weeks and needed a pet sitter to care for my cat. I decided on Hailee because the cost was reasonable. Throughout the duration of my vacation I was routinely told that my cat could not be found. It seemed like little to no effort was made to find or play with my cat, luckily my family was able to visit and play with my cat using minimal effort. She filled up food but did not fill up the water in the two weeks leading me to believe that she was unreliable, however she did show up everyday and was able to bring in packages. I will not be using her services again in the future, I do not feel that I can trust her with my pet.

I'm writing this as a third-party experience since my sister regularly brings my fur-niece here,…read moreI've had a chance to visit myself with her for a pickup--and I was really impressed. First off, the environment is clean, welcoming, and very well maintained. One thing that immediately stood out to me was that it didn't have that typical "doggy daycare" smell, which says a lot about how well they care for the space. Everything felt fresh, organized, and comfortable. From what I observed, the staff are attentive and genuinely caring with the dogs. You can tell they're experienced and truly enjoy what they do. My sister has always spoken highly of my fur-nieces visits and after seeing it firsthand, I completely understand why. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience, and I'd feel confident recommending this daycare to anyone looking for a clean, well-run, and trustworthy place for their pet. ***Did I mention they are open 24hrs/day

I never have to worry about whether or not someone will show up, I just work and wait for my photos and story of the days events to show up on my phone. The best part, I know they love on my fur babies just like I would if I was home. Hiring an independent contractor, you are not going to get this kind of customer service or consistency. They go above and beyond every time. I can update my schedule very easily, add a walk in case of an emergency and they send out holiday reminders if you need to cancel your walk!

His normal place sent him a last minute email that they had accidentally overbooked and he would be waitlisted. By last minute, I mean 30 mins before we were going to leave and drop him off. In a panic, we found Country Acres, who was able to take him last minute. They are incredible kind and patient, despite us getting every piece of information wrong. We knew his pup was in good hands, because all of the handlers we met were so nice and understanding, and at pick up explained he had actually ran out of food in the morning and they supplemented. The facility is extremely well maintained, offers additional services to really make your furry family member feel at home or pampered.

Creve Coeur Animal Hospital was with us for his entire life. He struggled with so many different allergies. We were there for monthly injections, prescription food, and medicated shampoo. I joined another veterinary clinic in an effort to get a better price for a dental cleaning. On my baby's last day of life, I called both veterinarian clinics and described his symptoms. The other veterinarian clinic offered for me to drop him off and leave him there while they tried to figure out what was wrong with him. If I had gone that route, I would've missed my last day with my dog. Creve Coeur Animal Hospital took his symptoms seriously and got us right in. They were sympathetic, informative and unbelievably patient. They walked us through the most difficult decision with grace. Since our last visit we have received paw prints and a certificate acknowledging a donation made in my good boys honor at the university of Missouri school of veterinary medicine. Creve Coeur Animal Hospital isn't just my vet. They were friends and family for my sweet Hobbes. You helped me give Hobbes 9.5 years of comfort and health. Thank you Creve Coeur animal hospital for all the years of love and care. It'll be a while before I'm ready to open my heart again but I have no doubt that my first new puppy visit will be with you.
