Pet boarding/training in Kansas City

“Our mini Bernedoodle got her first groom and haircut! She had a great experience and looks perfect!“

“Always very professional and nice staffing. My cat Wally, had an abcess that healed and then returned. They explained everything in detail and sent pain meds and the cone of shame, which he wore for a few weeks.
On another occasion I had to euthanize my dog, Pocahontas, and had a quiet room for us. We stayed for awhile and said goodbye and were never disturbed.“

“We've used CITYDOGS daycare for many months and loved it. But, last week we used boarding for the first time while we travelled far from town. It was a perfect storm, because on the first day we received a call from the staff saying that our pooch was very sick. Luckily, we use Fountain City Animal Hospital (literally right next door). CITYDOGS worked with Fountain City to organize emergency surgery and post-op care. After a night in the hospital, CITYDOGS took over and nursed our pooch back to health over the next several days. We really couldn't have been more grateful for them going way above and beyond! What a great place.“

“Very professional and organized.
Communication is incredible. Very polite staff. Most of all the whole facility was spotless!“

“Great staff. Easy to find. I already knew the the doctor….… She has treated my GoldenDoodle since I got her. I followed her to her new location!“

“Very kind staff in a difficult situation. Gave us all the time we needed and did not rush us.“

“Got me right in the same morning I called, which was really appreciated since my dog had been sick all weekend. By the time I got there, they had already contacted my previous vet and gotten shot records. They were very kind and gentle with my girl and followed up later. Definitely a keeper!“

“My son and I took my dog witha broken toe nail and the staff was very sympathetic and rushed to help our dog Widow throughout the visit. I will be taking my baby to see this clinic again for all future needs. Thank you!!“

“It is a GREAT place to take your “babies” whether they are well or feeling bad! Had a great experience with our “babies”! Vets are great and answer all our concerns. Thank you??? they remind me of our vet in Ga who we really liked! Also a plus our pets also love them & don’t mind going.“

“My fur baby loves playing with her friends a few times a week! Getting that enerfy out has been life changing for us!“

“The staff (techs & vets) are friendly, welcoming & caring. I rarely have to wait more than 5 mins to see a tech/Vet and they are good with our dog who hates the vet & wants nothing more than to leave.
Their pricing is very fair and they keep us on track for needed vaccinations.“

“I recently connected with this team for a consult. They were thorough and experienced. They made me feel like there's hope with integrating our new puppy! They answered all of our questions and took their time. I highly recommend them!“

“We absolutely love, Dr. Epstein, Damon and unfortunately, I don’t remember his name, but the kid with the glasses that works at the front desk as well. We started going to him back during the solar eclipse when we needed our dogs boarded and have been going to him ever since. I went to the vet school for a few years and had to drop out so I’m very picky and who I bring my animals too, but there’s not enough words in the dictionary to describe how much I love this vet! We have two dogs and three cats and Monday, December 15, 2025. We had to put down our 15-year-old ciao retriever mix who had a tumor and severe hip dysplasia and last year Dr. Epstein tried to remove the tumor, but my dog went into respiratory distress and it couldn’t be done. So for the past year, he kept him comfortable on medication, checking his blood work and stuff often and just maintaining the quality of life that he had left. Monday after hard consideration, we decided to bring him in and have him put down and Dr. Epstein and the kid with glasses pretty much waited until the clinic cleared out, and we were there by ourselves and not only did he give us one on one attention but they were so sweet and that’s what I like the most about him as he’s not gonna feed you a line of crap he’s realistic with expectations and what normal people can afford for their pets. once the clinic closed Monday, he let us lay with our dog for as long as we wanted and told us we could have as long as we wanted, and if Jeremy and I waited until midnight to leave our dog, I know that would’ve been OK like I said, he’s very compassionate. I appreciate him and everything he’s ever done everything he’s ever told us has been correct and I have the most respect for him. I will not bring any of my animals to anybody but him so I hope he’s around for a long time.
His prices are extremely reasonable as well I mean, unfortunately some places are all about profit, but you can really tell that this guy actually cares about your animal and he cares about what you think is pet parents. You definitely should go check him out. I guarantee you’ll fall in love with these guys like we did so thank you guys for helping with Kodiak on Monday because that was the hardest decision we ever had to make, but I know you made his passing so much more better than it would’ve been anywhere else. I thank you for that deeply!!!!!

“Eric and company are wonderful to work with. They care and you can tell. They put their heart into their work and the animals respond in kind. Would certainly recommend over any other care clinic. Not always a happy ending, but always handled with care, dignity and expertise. Wish I could give them more stars.“

“I've been using them as my vet for years. My senior dog Mac went through health issues and Dr Epstein and his staff took excellent care not only to Mac but providing me and taking the time to walk through next steps, costs and potential outcomes. When it was time to let Mac go, Dr. Epstein and his staff took amazing care to both Mac and I and allowed me to take as much time as I needed to mourn. I am forever grateful for their service.“

“Great puppy ( and owner) training using a gentle, positive approach. Barb & Lindsay understand puppies, their habits and motivations both early on and as they get through their “teenage” years.
We attribute our wonderful puppy behavior to Brookside, the weekly classes, and the constant reinforcement we received each week.
I strongly suggest you go weekly with consistency. Your puppy (and your future self) will thank you. Build the right foundation and it will pay dividends over the entirety of your dog’s time with you.“

“The entire staff was awesome, they made my puppy and I comfortable. I would recommend Dr. Sellers 100%.“

“Dr. Sambol & Dr. Gilbert are the best vets in KC. We drive 45min just to come & see them. They so clearly care for animals & love what they do. They listen intently & always do what’s best for our baby. I trust both of them with my dogs life. The techs & staff are also amazing, They remember my baby by name & are always excited to see him. It’s clear that everyone here has a passion for what they do. I’ve never met anyone who works here I wasn’t impressed by. Also Dr Gilbert calls dogs, kiddos & that’s just my kind of people. I will never take my babies anywhere else!“
