Our two doggos love this place! The first time they stayed we used a luxury suite. The second time they stayed in the indoor/outdoor run and appeared to enjoy it much more. In fact, our one dog didn't really seem like he wanted to come home! Drop off and pick up is easy. When we had an unexpected flight cancellation (twice) during our last trip, Petsafe village was very accommodating so we had one less thing to worry about. Also, anytime I have called on the phone, they have always been super friendly and helpful. Our dogs have an upcoming stay and are very excited!

Rudi had a great experience. The process was super simple. The information shared along the way was great and the live webcams were awesome.

Simply outstanding service. Takes pets in like their extended family members, and gives them the attention and care we all know they demand! True care and compassion for animals in general, with an excellent app/system/interface to keep tabs on the progress while you are away. Communication is top notch. Keep it up!

I never got to use them as our plans got cancelled due to a death in the family. My experience when we toured the facility was fabulous. I plan on my 4 fur babies going there in the future.

Our dog has stayed at PetSafe Village a few times. We feel like we were very fortunate to be able to board him with there. The staff seems attentive and caring. We've always had a great experience!

We have taken our dog to PetSafe Village a few times now. We have been very pleased with their service. They have the ability to view video of your pet in their sleeping area. They seem to be very caring for our pet. They are also flexible in pick up and drop off times.

Pet Safe Dog training has been amazing. They have so many different classes to chose from (from obedience to tricks to agility) to help you keep working with your dog. Taylor is so patient and knowledgeable. Absolutely amazing! So glad we found this place.

We have used PetSafe many times for boarding. Our dog loves it there and is very happy when we drop him off. There is no guilt associated with leaving him when he is so happy to get there. The staff is wonderful and the facility is spotless.

We heard so many recommendations for Petsafe Village, but were so disappointed. Our boy had a lot of fun, obviously, because when we picked him up he was filthy. Dried mud was caked on his legs & belly. There was no groomer in today, but they offered to allow us to rinse him off for $10. Ahhh, NO. He was obviously never wiped off after outside playtime, which meant mud was tracked on the floor of his "suite" and he then laid on the floor. He's never smelled so awful.

For all the times we've ever boarded any of our dogs, we've never had our furbaby returned to is in anywhere near this unacceptable condition. We cannot recommend Petsafe Village and will never leave our dog here again.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the entire atmosphere and staff! I feel safe and secure taking my furbabies to the "doggy hotel" whenever we have to go out of town and can't take them with us!

I was pressed into dog sitting for my daughter's pet and she asked me to take Coco to her last dog trick training class at Pet Safe. When we arrived coco couldn't get in fast enough. She loves Pet Safe and no wonder. The place is clean, roomy and filled with staff who obviously love dogs. CoCo successfully completed the course and I successfully succeeded pet sitting.

Rosalee is an EXCELLENT trainer. Our youngest dog has attended three full training classes with her and we definitely see the improvements! We also enrolled her in Petsafe's Day Camp once a week and she comes back happy and tired. When we walk up to Petsafe our pup is always excited and eager which shows it has been an all-around positive place for her. We can't wait to board our two dogs here in July since we know the staff will care for them as a boarding facility should.

My boy goes there for daycare. He is ecstatic for 2+ miles when he realizes where we are going and happily barks to get there quicker. His very favorite is Jessica and she loves my Beau almost as much as I do. What I appreciate most is that they are helpful to my dad when he drops him off, they are engaged with all the pets and I feel like my boy is safe.

There is a large enough staff, which isn't the case everywhere, and the facilities are great. I would recommend the daycare to anyone who wants a fun, active day for their four footers.

I'm honestly so impressed by this place! This is the first time I boarded my cat, and she can be a bit shy and timid but that was no issue for them. You can watch your kitty in the the playroom they have via webcam, and it's so great! I saw an employee come in and start petting my kitty, picking her up and giving her all sorts of love and attention!

Then she let her down, and my kitty just went on playing/exploring the room. They were also very understanding of when I called and asked how she was doing. They checked on my cat and gave me a whole report on her. The facilities are very clean and everyone is very nice. The cats are away from the dogs and are able to chill out. I think it's well worth the price and I will absolutely be using them again. Best pet paradise in town!

Day boarded my cats here and the staff have been pleasant and professional even though one of my cats is not well behaved. When the manager quoted me one price on the phone and staff told me a different higher price later, I questioned it and they worked with me to meet the quoted rate. The cat room has 3x3 "condos" on facing walls with an adjacent playroom where your cat can exercise daily. (There may be other options I'm not aware of as well). Cats are in a separate area from the dogs, which I appreciate. Drop off and pick up is quick and easy.

Looked at the reviews at finding a new place for our two Huskies and pomeranian and we chose to check this place out. I can tell ya.this place really is nice. Upon walking in I was really impressed with all the happy dogs in the lobby area. They looked well taken care of. The lady told us that she was full for the weekend.bummer. But we asked to take a tour anyway since we were already there and heard good things and we needed a great place.upon walking back to the back there were employees everywhere.

They had a doggie day camp area, which was big and clean. This place was like a resort for your furbabies.seriously. I really liked it. The staff had handheld radios so they could talk back and forth to each other. Really clean. Did not smell like dog pee at all. Will be booking here in the future. Highly recommended.

Pet Safe Village was a class act! I recently moved to Knoxville, and I previously preferred to board my dog at our vet. However, our vet here does not offer weekend pick-ups. We needed to drop off on a Friday and pick up on a Saturday. Not only do they offer weekend pick-ups, but you can basically pick up 24/7 (with additional cost). It is very convenient.

They also have great facilities, and the staff is very friendly and professional. For instance, we realized once we arrived home per our emailed receipt that we had been accidentally charged for an additional night. After notifying the staff, they immediately credited my account and were very apologetic. It was very refreshing. I definitely recommend this facility-they care about the dogs and want them to be comfortable and happy.

This is the BEST dog boarding / doggie camp facility! We've moved around a good bit and have never found one that comes close. The staff is professional, friendly, and experienced. They provide break away collars to keep your pet safe - so you don't have to worry about their collar getting caught. The facility is extremely clean, we saw them cleaning the floor when we picked up our dogs and during the day on the web cams.

They carefully check that your pet has all the applicable vaccinations prior to your visit. 24/7 supervision is also provided (which I've found is very rare). They also sent us a photo of our dog playing during the day via email and an evaluation of my dogs from the day when I pick them up. The prices are very reasonable too! Our dogs love coming here! I can't recommend pet safe village place enough!

We started taking our Lab Chloe to PetSafe Day Camp because of its location and a friend referred us. I had no idea the staff would be so professional, friendly, and passionate about the care and well-being of our dog. These folks go out of their way to ensure Chloe loves her time there, and can't wait to go back. Sometimes on weekends she gets depressed she misses her friends there.

I can tell they spoil her by the way she acts when she sees them. No apprehension at all! It's all tail-wagging, and going to them with everything she's got. Lol It's obvious the culture and training of the staff is to promote a safe, loving, caring, and pet friendly environment. Thank you! Lisa Green

I went to Pet Safe Village to use their Self-Wash service as both of the dogs needed a goood bath. I was pretty amazed when I drove into their complex. Huge buildings and wide grounds. I noticed they had a park and thought it was a good idea to let the dogs even get more stinky before their bath. The enclosed pet park was a good size. They had a trail where you could walk around with your dog and a grassy play area.

My favorite part is the gross body of water sitting in the middle of the park. It was green an disgusting but the dogs jumped right into it and had a blast swimming. We walked across the street and got into the tub. They provided towels, shampoo and a dryer. All for $10 a dog. Not a bad deal for getting to keep my tub clean at home. They also have what appears to be nice boarding and day care services. This place is a little drive from my house but I will proably be back, esp because the dog park is being expanded!

I have boarded my dogs at PetSafe Village a few times. In every instance, it seems, when I walk them before putting them in the car to go home after their stay there, they have to urgently urinate and it seems as if they have not been walked for a very long time due to the amount that they needed to "go". Even though I paid for "potty breaks", I do not believe that the staff actually walked them.

I also put their meals in portioned containers so that all the staff has to do is empty each day's meal into their bowls. In both boarding instances, the staff just throws away perfectly good, reusable containers. I even asked them NOT throw those away (and there were several for each meal, each day) and they tossed them anyway. I talked to the front desk about and they stated that they NEVER throw those away, but they did - both times.

They also gave me a bill that was not itemized, so I really do not know what I was paying for - it was just one lump sum. There are other kennels in Knox County - look for another one.

Obviously, few Knoxvillians have discovered Yelp. PetSafe Village is THE destination for pets that want to get away from their parents. We board our pup there when we leave town. She's also a regular in the doggy day care program. Staff is attentive and friendly. The dog seems to have a great time, comes home from camp tuckered out and sleepy. For your dog? Discover PetSafe Village.

If I the hotel I'm staying at doesn't let dogs stay. if my mother can't keep them for me. I leave them here. Its clean, the staff is friendly. And it is very helpful that you can pick up or drop off 24/7! They are really good about always checking to make sure my dogs are utd on all shots. The dog park available is really nice! Theres even a little pond like area if you have a water loving dog! The prices are reasonable.
