I had boarded my dog at this place for a few days after picking up my dog she was vomiting non stop I had to rush her to the emergency room $1200 later! My dog was not treated nicely. Staff are very unprofessional and rude! Never was greeted when I walked in. Would never recommend this place. BTW to the owners I still had visits on my account I would of rather left them not used then ever to have to come back to this terrible place.

I have boarded my dogs there for about 9 years. I have no complaints. This time I had her groomed as well. They did a beautiful job.

I have been taking my dog here for the past year and Hannah's House never disappoints. They always provide top quality service with unique touches that make their grooming services special. They always find time for my pup even if I call last minute, which is not necessary but extremely appreciated. Even though I recently moved, I will absolutely continue to make the drive to Hannah's!

Hannah's was fantastic. My crazy, hyper, American Bulldog seemed to have a good time and didn't want to leave. They also gave her a bath; it was extra but she smelled amazing. Definitely sending her back.
