My Dog can be difficult because he is very timid. His first day was tough but the Animal Den gave him the benefit of the doubt and by the end of his stay I was told he was a different dog. I appreciate the Animal Den for taking their time with him and making sure he was safe. It is always difficult leaving our pets for a length of time especially when they are used to being around certain people. I will always use the Animal Den when they have availability.

We have begun brining our pup to Animal Den for daycare. I have been very impressed and comforted with the thoroughness of the vetting. All dogs are carefully screened for health and behavioral checks. This provides reassurance that my dog will be in a safe environment while we are at work. Additionally, we received a very comprehensive assessment of our dog's first day. While the day went well, the assessment offered some suggestions for things to work on at home to help with our dog's obedience, which is great. Highly recommended!

Report
Condescending desk clerk who has an overwhelmingly fake customer service voice, it was obvious she could care less about my situation. It seems she didn't want to help me and was unwilling but I insisted she ask her manager to get approval for me. I needed an emergency for my Chihuahua and couldn't find a sitter, was willing to pay anything for her to have a stay. Apparently they don't accept handwritten vaccines from other countries, I had gone to a very reputable and licensed veterinarian in Sinaloa and she told me they wouldn't accept her vaccine records because of that, her tone made it seem as if I was trying to pass forged documents. Oddly enough she had a visit at VCA Carmichael before that and they accepted her vaccines just fine, the girl who answered the phone there immediately understood me and was willing to speak the veterinarian to vouch for my dogs vaccines.
