Pet Boarding Training near Chesterfield

“Been using this Kennel for my dog for many years and they have never skipped a beat! He comes home healthy and happy every time and I absolutely do not hesitate to recommend this gem in the woods!“

“Great vet, Doctors are friendly never pushy..prices are reasonable, so far nothing but great experiences.“

“This place showered my dog with love. My puppy went from scared to enter to pulling me to the door within 1 week. They knew her by name by the second day she came to daycare. The rates are great too - lots of payment options to choose from.“

“The staff here are so kind and friendly. My dog, Cosette, begins smiling and wiggling as soon as we walk in the door. It is a 'no frills' place but my dog doesn't need a pool or gym equipment. She needs a loving staff and plenty of dogs to play with. It is affordable and they will even bath her and trim her nails for me. She goes to daycare 2 days a week. Because she has so many positive interactions there, she was comfortable being boarded for a few days.“

“My girl absolutely loves it here!! She’s still a puppy and has very bad anxiety, but is always so happy to come here! When we tell her it’s time to go to daycare or boarding, she gets her harness and runs to the front door with it and waits there until it’s time to go! When we drop her off, she gets so excited she can barely even contain herself and immediately runs over to the staff to give them hugs and kisses and everyone working is always so thrilled to see her. And since she has such bad anxiety, this is always really nice to see. I always feel comfortable leaving after drop off and always feel heart warmed by how happy she is to see all the staff and how happy they are to see her too! And on top of that, they have excellent prices!! I couldn’t recommend Dog’s Day Inn enough!!“

“One of my fur babies went to Boot Camp for several weeks and came back a different dog! Both of my puppies have been boarded there several times and they love going there. I know they love going there and spending time with their second family. I highly recommend them for boarding or training!“

“I typically use Google reviews to give good-work kudos for merchants and service providers, but not this time. On Friday I left my nine-year old cockapoo, Cooper, at Holiday Barn (Midlothian) for a three day weekend of boarding, with a bath to be given yesterday (Sunday.) When I went to pick him up shortly ago, it took much longer than usual for them to bring him out. When he appeared, his paws, face, and backside were wet. I asked the fellow that brought him out what happened. He said that during the morning kennel cleaning some water got into his space, and it took longer to bring him out as “ they were drying him off.” He was still very wet (enough to make my car seat wet,) so I can’t imagine how soaked he was *before* the tried to dry him off.) The customer service manager overheard the conversation and asked what the issue was. She told me that, since I had said I would be picking him up at 8:00 am, this was, I guess, somehow excused. I assured her I’d never said an 8:00 am pickup, but rather mid-morning (I arrived just before 11:00.) She then asked what they could do to resolve the situation. I didn’t ask for any refund, but made clear it was unacceptable and needs to never happen again, with anyone’s dog. I don’t know what cleaner, if any, they use to clean the kennel floors, but I can certainly assume that, even if none, the water of a kennel floor was hardly clean. And Cooper had been sitting in it, and putting his face in it. After taking him up to the bathtub to rinse off his face, paws, and haunches, he certainly doesn’t look like he just got groomed.

This is distressing, as we’ve used Holiday Barn for years and have always been satisfied. This experience, however, is making me reconsider. I’ll hope whatever water he may have drank will cause no problems. At any rate, they've definitely earned a one star rating today.

Edit 2-28-26
Despite the bad experience related above, we’ve had so many more good ones we’ve given them additional chances. I’ve boarded Cooper twice, and I’ve had him groomed twice. All were up the standards I expect. As a consequence, I’m increasing the stars to four and confidently recommend you give them a try.“

“My baby loves it there and they love my baby. They are friendly and loving. I will recommend them to anyone.“

“They took excellent care of our cat for a week. The cat area is very clean and quiet, away from the dogs. The area was indoor temperature controlled at a comfortable level.“

“Meeting Jen made an incredible difference in our lives. She was not our first attenpt at training for our dog. Incompleye course at pet store. We were turned down by a few trainers and then contacted Jen. Our dog is a rescue, and she was highly reactive to other dogs and loud noises. Jen's training sessions and knowledge were what we needed. Our pack is very happy. 100 out of 10.“

“My dog Nova sustained an injury while out and about and was in a lot of pain. Our regular vet did not have availability to see her, so I called here and they were able to get her seen within an hour and a half. The staff were helpful and showed Nova so much care and affection. Dr. Infantes was great about communicating his thoughts and desired approach, and they kept me informed throughout the whole process. They were upfront about costs, and I appreciated being able to have the required meds filled in-house instead of having to go to a pharmacy.“

“Swift Creek Kennels is nothing fancy. A secure, solid, well-established place that will shelter and feed your animals when you cannot do so.

“The entire staff at Pet Paradise are wonderful. They remember my dog’s name. The place is very clean. The groomer always provides an update on my dog’s condition.“
