Allison is the best caregiver of animals I've ever encountered in the doggy daycare business. I've personally seen her advocate for the best care of dogs under her watch. If your pet has a need she is the first to communicate to you with good or bad news. She's highly dependable and professional. Allison is the best!

It's sad but this is ran by a lot of people who are not fans of blacks. The way they treat there black employees is so sad. I have never worked there nor let them watch my dogs. I came across them located in Walmart, and started chatting with one of the young ladies who is African America. I wouldn't let them touch my dog knowing they are like this. Its sad and there distract manager Raenee is the worse she clearly is intemadated by black girl magic. I will never recommend anyone to this company.

Two things really separate working at Best Friends Pet Hotel compared to other companies. The first is your clientele. How many people can say they snuggle with their customers?

All dogs, attending our daycare, need to be spayed and neutered.
Our screening process is done when you and your dog visit for the first time. We call it our initiation. We want to ensure that daycare will be a safe experience for your dog so we leave 10-15 minutes to observe his/her behavior and make sure it meshes well with our environment. While this initiation is occurring, we ask that you stay close until we give you the thumbs up that everything is ok. It is important for us and for our other daycare guests that each pup, coming into our daycare space, has a temperment that works with other dogs.
