Huge shoutout and heartfelt thanks to Lavender Hill Farm Pet Resort for taking such incredible care…read moreof our sweet pup while we were on vacation! We loved getting the daily updates and adorable photos--it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was so heartwarming to see Honey making new friends, playing with other dogs, and just truly enjoying herself. Thank you for treating her like part of your family and creating such a fun, safe, and social environment. We're so grateful for the love and attention you gave her! If anyone is looking for a trustworthy and caring place for their pup, we can't recommend Lavender Hill Farms enough!

Our dog, Sheeba did wonderful while being boarded here. We loved that we got a daily report on how…read moreshe was doing, which eased our minds while we were gone. The facility is very clean and you can tell that the animals are well taken care of. We would definitely recommend Lavender Hill to others.

When I visited the first time, I asked to have a look at the kennel (or a comparable sized one) in…read morewhich Phoebe was going to be staying. For some reason (maybe she - the front desk receptionist - told me it was because they were being cleaned? I can't exactly remember.). I was not able to check them out. This second time, when picking up Phoebe, a new customer came in and someone - whom I supposed was the owner of BB&B - took her right back without question. It may not be their general operating procedure, as it is with many other boarding kennels; but, I was told that we would be sent a photo of her on her first five-day visit. In fact, they offered. That didn't happen. It's not something that I expect from a kennel; but, more and more kennels are sending daily updates via a photo or two showing pets playing or just having a good time. I think it's a great way to reassure pet owners that their pets are comfortable while owners are gone. On this second visit, I reminded them that they never provided me with a photo for the first visit; and, I was assured that it would happen this time. Again, it didn't happen. I left 12 Wuffes (hip/joint supplements) for six days with instructions that she was to receive two per day. (Even left two extra just in case we didn't get back as scheduled). Out of the twelve, 10 were returned. This means that they were given to Phoebe only one day. NOT ACCEPTABLE. I was trying to really like this place. With both a five-night and a six-night visit, boarding isn't cheap. And, I certainly don't mind paying for it, but, when it comes to my pets when I'm not able to be around them, it is comforting to know that they are in a safe, comfortable place where their health needs are being met by staff, especially when provided with meds and instructions. Just reviewed my online invoice to find that I WAS CHARGED $9.90 FOR PLAYTIME THAT I DID NOT REQUEST. I had earned free pool time. I figured, as did another reviewer of BB&B, that since most kennels allow dogs to be given socialization time, that this place would work that way as well, but, apparently that is NOT the policy here. I do a lot of traveling, but afraid I'll have to find a different kennel boarding option from here on out.

This was my first time having my dogs groomed with this place and I will not return…read more The absolute worst part is that they groomed my dog's fur so incredibly short under his tail that he has HORRIFIC razor burn, to the point of it being extremely SWOLLEN and INFLAMED. He has not eaten or drank in two days since his appointment, and has been throwing up. He is flinching each time we pet and check his body, which everytime we inspect his body we see MULTIPLE other areas where his skin was cut or fur so short all you see is his irritated skin. Ended up taking him to the vet and he has an infection, was out on antibiotics and steroids.

I'm much more comfortable with my fur babies being in their own home where they are comfortable when I leave. I feel it's much less stress for them. And they love Chris!

It's straight up hustle mode here…read more This place is solely about profit and on top of that they do not respect your time! They tried to hit us with an 800$+ bill for shots and an ear treatment for yeast. It's definitely a wallet hustle place.

My dog was severely injured at their day care. She broke her Femur. Emergency surgery was needed…read more I called and asked them to review video and see how this had happened. No video shows incident. They also claim no responsibility to injury and I'm left with a very hefty medical bill. Pet owners need to be aware that this place and possibly others will leave you with just a "Sorry that this happened"!response if your dog is injured. If I can give this place 5 negative stars I would. This is total negligence and irresponsibility on their part. I believe they care more about taking your Benjamin's than caring for your Bengie!

I picked a level 5 but the owner talked me into a level 4 since it'll be easier to manage the shedding with. When I called and made the appointment, I told the lady I did not want him shaved or cut too short. When I arrived I told the lady 4 times that: 1. I've never had a dog groomed before so a professional recommendation would be appreciated. 2. Do not shave MY DOG!!! I want to keep him longer just trim all the wispy hairs up and give him an GOLDEN CUT. I kid you not... I picked him up and he is SHAVED!!! All but his tail was touched. I was at a loss of words. We called after I got home and now the owner is arguing with us and refuses to believe he really is that short. She also told me it was MY fault because I "pointed" at the board when the cut lengths. As a professional... would you advise if cuts were against what the customer asked for? Wouldn't you guide them in something that's new to them but THEIR PROFESSION?!? I will never return and will forever warn people about the incompetence running wild through this facility. His undercoat has been damaged. His hair texture has completely changed. His coat doesn't grown back in curly anyone (my favorite part and the whole reason I don't want him shaved). Our vet advised us, it won't ever grow back the same and will take at least two years to fix the damage they caused. This is your warning- do yourself a favor and STAY FAR AWAY!!!
