Kept my dogs here for the weekend. Didn't take pictures but they are kept outside in covered fenced cages that are just connected to each other in huge groups that are built over a dirt field. Why isn't that on the lovely pictures that are posted for this place My dogs stunk and desperately needed a bath when we brought them home because of the environment they were kept in. My dogs are inside dogs so I felt bad for them.
I didn't drop them off so I didn't know until I picked them up. I've never used a pet boarding place before but I guess this is normal Here's a picture I found online that looks similar to what I saw. Just imagine isles and isles of these and they are all connected. Dog comfort was not intended when this place was built. My dogs were still alive so ill give 2 stars 6-17-22 Response to your response.
I know what I saw and smelled. Of course your not going to agree with what I posted and say I'm making it up basically. It's ok, it doesn't really matter to me what's thought of my review. I just wanted to share my personal experience on what I saw and smelled.

This place is terrible. The dogs are in outside cages with other dogs all around them they are able to bark and bite at each other between the chain length fencing that separate them. I saw two dogs going at each other between there kennels. I only kept my Boxer there one night and when I brought her home she slept for 12 straight hrs. I can only imagine the what she whent through during the night.
I normally board her at furs and feathers pet resort but they were booked. Never one time has my dog came back from furs and feathers in the condition she came back from Cowen's. I will never use them again.

I highly recommend this place if you need somewhere for your pet to be when they cant be home with you. Very clean, very friendly, very safe pet resort. Our dog is not friendly with other dogs, but friendly with people, and he had no issues any of the times we have dropped him off. They interacted with him and made him feel at home while staying there. All of the staff we have met has been great also. 10 out of 10.

This was our first time leaving our dogs anywhere. We gave Cowen's pet resort a try and I have to say we loved it! Our pets came back home happy! Both our dogs would cry when we would put them in the car to take them anywhere and bark at any dog and anyone passing by. Since we left them there the whole way back home they both layed down on the back without making any noise. We were so surprised! There is a difference in our dogs and its a good difference. Thats a definite that we will be using them in the future.

Great service. They took care of my two dogs; one who does not like strangers, so I was concerned as to how well the staff would be able to care for him. To my surprise, they were able make friends with him and he was well cared-for. The staff is very passionate about what they do and their actions show it. The kennels are clean, large and well-kept. I have no problem leaving my dogs with them again.
