We love Lynaires and would not take our two "babies" Maxx and Jaxx anywhere else. We always get the luxury suites. The owner and staff at Lynaires always go the extra mile to ensure the finest quality care and compassion for all the cats and dogs there. Her entire staff have worked for the owner Linda for over 8/10 years from what she told us. Now that speaks volumes! They have completely re built and updated their prior building into an even more beautiful facility with state of the art quality construction, way above what's required of state safety code. Your pets are safer there than in your home! They know us by name and often send us pics and updates on our dogs while we are on the road. They even put our Maxx and Jaxx on the front of their new brochure! Linda the owner gave us one of the very first personal tours of her beautiful facility and at the time we had never met her, she just saw us in the waiting room and asked us if she could show us around. The staff even lie down in the floor with our babies and nap with them with occassionally when they get a little anxious there. (Unheard of anywhere else) They make it an easy decision for us to hit the road, be it business or pleasure trip! We would probably stay home more often if not for the confidence we have in Lynaires. Our military friends on Cherry Point Marine station recommended them to us. Call Linda or any staff member for a private tour today for your "babies" (By the way) Our profile photo on here is Maxx and Jaxx relaxing outside Lynaires in the beautiful courtyard with two of their awesome caretakers!

From the moment Missy and I walked into the building, til I picked her up 3 days later, I was met with professional caring employees. Missy gets so nervous when she's dropped off - she was not nervous when I picked her up. Lynaire followed actually followed our feeding schedule, did not lose her toy, and smelled great with nails trimmed. The price was reasonable. I will use Lynaire's again whenever our whole household travels at the same time. Thank you, Lynaire.

About six months ago my wife and I adopted a beautiful Labradoodle. His name is Teddy and at the…read moretime we picked him up he was 4.5 years old. He came with some bad habits especially while on the leash. Our Veterinarian recommended Bill Mattis at River Ridge Kennels. After we talked to Bill on the phone we enrolled Teddy in the six week obedience training course. And what a blessing! We found their prices very reasonable and the training was excellent. There were six dogs in our class and each dog had their own set of issues and personalities. The love, respect and compassion Bill showed our pets was nothing short of amazing. Well, Teddy passed with flying colors and my wife and I did as well. Bill and staff come with many years of experience and I can't give enough praise to Bill as he is the consummate professional when it comes to training dogs AND their owners. We highly recommend River Ridge Kennels and Bill Mattis.

You could really tell that Elsie genuinely cared about her and wasn't just trying to rush through the appointment. Elsie was incredibly patient and got rid of all of Kitty's fleas and flea eggs, gave her treats along the way, and even sent her home with the sweetest little goody bag with flea spray! My cat was treated with so much kindness and care, and I truly appreciated the extra effort Elsie put into making the experience as stress free as possible. I highly recommend Elsie to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like their own. We will definitely be back!
