Lots of critters inside
Brian S.

Cats dogs and friends Nobody really knows the number of homeless cats and dogs in this country. I've seen estimates of up to 70 million homeless kitties alone. Only one in ten puppies born in this country ends up in a permanent home. These are horrible statistics and not much will be done until irresponsible people learn to take care of their animals and that starts with making sure they are spayed and neutered. Cats and dogs are not endangered species, they need to be controlled and not encourage to breed. Animal shelters like the one in Warwick are places where cats and dogs are offered for adoption. Frequently adult animals and not little kittens or puppies but wonderful creatures nevertheless. The amount and types of cats and dogs offered varies from time to time and it sometimes require patience to find the right animal for you but it is well worth the effort. If you are looking for a four legged creature to share you life with and that will give you unconditional love and affection, shelters like this should be the very first place you look. You just might find a best friend forever.

This is the cat they told me was adopted & they could not let me adopt. They gave or sold it to a rescue Passion 4 paws in CT

Terrible experience here, I was on petfinder when I saw a cat who was hit by a car & lost his leg, I felt so bad for him & thought he might have a hard time finding a home. I decided I would give him a home. I sent an email to see if he was still available, they said yes & sent me an application. I then made plans to meet him. I met & fell in love with him to then be told the next day he was already promised to a "rescue with an approved adopter". Not sure why they let me meet him & called my vet office, if he was already promised to a rescue with an adopter already approved. Or why a city kill shelter would choose to send a cat off to a rescue(out of state) causing the animal stress & lose the adoption fee money to the rescue, when they have an adopter with a loving home there. No one will tell me the name of the rescue after I asked several times. Very fishy. I wanted to donate to that rescue since this shelter turned down the brand new carriers,treats, beds, toys..etc I tried to give them.(which I donated to my local no kill). I wasn't going to leave a nasty review because I didn't want to deter people from adopting. I highly recommend The Pet Refuge, Care for animals, & The Humane society if you also had a bad experience here, I should add they felt the need to call me & tell me "They didn't need my donations & that they are not allowed to tell me the name of the "rescue". UPDATE!! I was told several times the reason they couldn't approve me is because the rescue already had an approved adopter, well that was clearly a lie because I found him on youtube, petfinder, & the rescue in CT called Passion 4 Paws! Up for adoption posted on the 22nd of November. They told me he was adopted the 19th of November. The photos are in the comments of this review until they delete them. They changed his name & story slightly but it's obviously the same cat. Same markings & same leg amputated. So not only did they lie to me, they denied this cat a loving home, & for no reason. I'm sure they warned the rescue not to adopt to me but I may still try. Also they contacted a coworker of mine(completely unprofessional) by phone & social media asking her if "she could talk to me & have me remove my review". If they had an issue with me they should have talked to me about it not lie & say he's adopted. I cannot stand liars.

Leading a comfy life, despite her arthritis and resulting limp, because of the dedicated staff and volunteers of Warwick Animal Shelter!

I have never felt more unwelcome while trying to adopt a kitty in need.

This is the third dog we have have been boarding at Warwick Pet Lodge over the past 30 years. All…read moreof them have always been ready to jump out of the car and run toward the "Puppy Hotel" as soon as we make the turn off Jefferson Boulevard! When we pull up into the parking lot our present dog, Honey, can hardly wait to run in to see Frank. I'm sure there are more extravagant places to board our dog; however, I'm also sure that none can beat the care and attention our dog gets while she's there! Cosmetics isn't everything. The kennel where our dog is kept is clean and is, I'm sure, washed down more than once a day. She is her own large cage and at the end of each cage is a door which Frank opens so the dogs can go out into the I own fenced- in run...I would say it is about 10 feet long and approximately 4 1/2 feet wide, so there is plenty of room for her to move around inside and plenty of room for her to play during her outside time. Not once, in all of the years we have been boarding our pets there have any of them ever come back with so much as a flee or any type of illness. As a matter of fact they seem to come home cleaner than when we dropped them off! Frank is usually always working around the back where the animals are boarded and always talks to the animals. This last time when we boarded Honey it had been over a year since she had been there, and Frank remembered her name and Honey ran toward him as though he were her long-lost friend! (So much for loyalty! LOL!) She went right in the back with him as if we had disappeared! !! Hmmm!!! I must say though that it always gives us a peace of mind knowing that she, (and our two other dogs that have now passed), actually love being boarded. Frank is very picky when it comes to which cats or dogs he will board. If your furry friend is over a certain age and has never been boarded, don't bother calling. I think that Frank may feel, and rightfully so, that if your dog is 5 years old and has never been out of your sight or boarded it is not fair to send him/her to a kennel for a week. I'm sure it could be a very traumatic experience. All animals have to be up-to-date with all of their immunizations and one must leave an emergency number or two and the animal's vet's name. We happen to take Honey to the vet that Frank's wife works with so that is a plus for Honey...she not only loves Frank but also his wife. Another great advantage is that Frank lives right upstairs so either he or the Mrs. are there 24/7. I find this to be very comforting. So if you are looking for a wonderful, caring place to board your pet, I feel that you can't go wrong with Warwick Pet Lodge! Oh just a little tip...when we first get our dog we get them used to being boarded by leaving them several times for a night or two on a weekend when we are home so they know we will be back for them. All of our dogs have been rescued from shelters and we don't want them to think they are being deserted again! That way when we leave them for longer periods of time they are all ready for their stay at their favorite home away from home!

I can't rave enough about Joyce from comforts of home. She is a true animal whisperer. I can truly…read morerest easy knowing My babies are in Joyce's hands. From day one you can tell Joyce is dedicated to her services and will give you nothing but the best. She takes care of my dog and cat when I go on vacations and walks my dog while I'm at work. She sends me pictures of my fur babies to let me know how they are doing... (which is so comforting when I am missing them). I truly know they are well taken care of and Joyce gives them the love they need without them even leaving home. My dog and my parents dog absolutely adore Joyce. They get so excited when they hear her voice. She is so sweet and patient with them. I am so happy that I found comforts of home. ! - she provides texts after every visit (and pictures) letting me know how they are - So easy to get in touch with. She will text or call. - She is extremely flexible and understands the importance of a routine for my pets. - she is very patient with a crazy client like myself who makes last minute plans and schedules pet sitting last minute - she also does home sitting... if you want your house checked on, or the mail taken in. - affordable pricing Comforts of home has made my life easier knowing my pets are being taken care of by someone who is passionate about animals.

Joyce and her staff are absolutely amazing! Whenever we are out of town, I know that I can depend…read moreon Joyce to take good care of our kittens while we are gone. They will come everyday and spend the time to give them the attention that the need. Joyce will always keep us informed and updated with texts / pictures. It is so nice to know that we have someone so reliable and trustworthy we can call on while we are away. I would highly recommend Joyce and her staff to anyone looking for a pet sitter!!!

Good if you're in a pinch but not great. When I picked up my dogs, one of them peed like he hadn't…read morein days and the other one peed in the car, which he has NEVER done. Both my dogs were very smelly and a little skinny after only 4 days. They don't really let you tour the place or send you pictures to let you know how they are doing. They were also very wired, which makes me think they were in the kennel for long periods of time, but not sure.

I strongly recommend boarding your pet elsewhere…read more I dropped my dog off at 8:30 am this past Saturday and picked him up 3:30 Sunday. 31 hours. I dropped him off with his bed and tupperware of food. When I picked him up, his food bin was at the same level (in other words, not touched) and they handed me his bed in a plastic bag. The bed was absolutely soaked in urine. That evening, my dog started to have diarrhea and needed to be fed brown rice for 2 days until it passed. I have worked in animal hospitals and boarding facilities since 2003. My dog is quite accustomed to hanging out in a boarding facility, as I have often brought him with me to work. He doesn't get stress colitis and only has diarrhea when he has a dietary indiscretion or his food has been changed. He has also had some long days waiting to be walked and has never ONCE urinated in his bed. Upset by how my dog was treated, I called the following day to speak to the manager, Karen. Karen looked into it and left me a voicemail stating they had a new kennel person "who didn't know he was supposed to clean the bedding". Did he know he was supposed to walk the dogs after giving them water? My dog basically held his urine until he couldn't take it any longer and then urinated all over his bed. And how long was it before they came to clean up his run, I wondered? I called back the next day and spoke with Christine, the very nice kennel manager. She had been absent that weekend and apologized for my experience. I asked that I have my money returned since they clearly didn't take care of my pet. She didn't have the authority and, after another call 2 days later, I was told she spoke with the owner of the practice who said, "the best we can do is give you a $20 credit." Not, "I'll give you a $20 refund" - they'll give me a credit. Boarding your pet here just because it's attached to a medical facility is not going to get you the care you would expect. My dog was neglected and I paid money for it. For the owner to decide to only give me a credit is to communicate he doesn't care my dog had a bad experience and that he'll take my money anyway. To give a credit tells me he wants me to spend more money with the arrogant assumption I would now, knowing he is this sort of person, ever bring my pet back for "care".
