    We have trusted Southern Grooming and Boarding with our dog for 9 years and wouldn’t go anywhere else. The communication during her stays is amazing-they send updates and photos that give us so much peace of mind. Our girl is now geriatric, and we truly appreciate how closely they monitor her and make sure she’s safe, comfortable, and not overexerting herself. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs like they’re their own.

    Our dog Baxter squeals with excitement as soon as we turn into the driveway of Southern Grooming and Boarding. He pulls us into the office because he cannot wait to play with all of his friends. He enjoys his stays there so much and it makes us happy knowing that he is under excellent care while we are away.

    It really feels like your dropping your pups off at a good friend's house. They get to go outside all the time, the staff sends you pictures everyday without charging you or even needing to ask. One of my dogs is a little high maintenance but he loves it there and they treat him so well. And they're very affordable. Highly recommend!

    You guys are awesome. You took great care of our Leah and Hershey. Even when Hershey lost her sister. We were so worried she wouldn't do well without her. You guys made her feel so loved and made her so happy we didn't think she wanted to come home. Sadly she has also passed away since then. You are the best boarding place around. ❤️❤️

    Love love love this place and the people who run it!! My fur kids are super excited every time I drop them off for a daycare day, and any guilty feelings I have whenever I need to board them are instantly banished when they run excitedly to the gate at drop-off!! :D

    My puppy loves Southern Grooming and Boarding! She is always excited when we get there and the staff obviously love her and take great care of all the dogs. They also do a wonderful job grooming! This is like my pups second home😊

    I love southern grooming and boarding. We take our dog here any time we are out of town. The people are great the facility is clean is well maintained and our dog always enjoys it. Prices are very good.

    Highest recommendation! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
    It’s such a breath of fresh air knowing our precious dogs are safe and in the best hands when we leave them here.

    We’ve been bringing our dogs to this boarding place for a while now, and it’s the only place I recommend to my family and friends.

    They are great with our anxious and shy dog and also our high-energy one.

    The staff listen, are very patient, professional, love dogs, and incredibly caring. They take time to find out about our dog’s personality, food needs, feeding schedule, meds, and even ask about our dogs character and more. Keep us informed. Send us updates and more.

    Boarding and property are very clean, AC Cool Climate Controlled, provide clean water, video surveillance inside, have plenty of staff during each shift to care for the needs of the dogs (many other shops only have 1-2 people).

    We’ve used both their grooming and boarding services. The grooming is excellent, they do well with our dog with sensitive skin, and they were careful about the shampoo they use and are good with our dog that does not like their nails cut.

    The outside dog yards have plenty of space to move around and shade and it’s open for everyone to see even when we pull up we can see all the dogs.

    Things that stand out to us is the communication from staff about our dogs, cleanliness of facility and excellent care for our dogs needs.l and my dogs love it there (they get get excited when we pull up to it and they love the staff). That alone says a lot to me. Both my dogs always come home clean, happy, and calm.

    Bottom line is I trust them completely with our dogs and know they are well cared for, treated kindly, keep us updated and they leave there in great shape.
    I highly recommend Southern Grooming and Boarding. It has been our #1 Choice for our precious dogs for us and our family and friends.

    Southern Grooming and Boarding is simply the very best. Lucy, our 2 year old staffy, is very friendly with people but does not get along with other dogs. Southern Grooming and Boarding love Lucy. They always send us a pic of Lucy smiling and give us updates. They bathe her and trim her nails. Their prices are very fair. I recommend them highly.
