The flexibility of scheduling has helped us many times. They will make sure your pups food is refrigerated if needed and medication will be administered. We had a grooming scheduled during his most recent kennel stay and he looked better when we picked him up, than when we dropped him off. Their groomers are professionals. Our dog can be difficult during grooming, however, they know how to handle that situation.
The staff even goes out of their way to provide owners with personalized report cards via text. Takes the edge off when you’re so far away from your dog. If it wasn’t for them, I don’t know if we’d be able to travel without him.
