First time lodging my cats and they all took great care of them both. My senior cat has been labeled by the vet as 'opinionated' and I'm not permitted to bring her in without 'dosing' her first. She also uses a transdermal pen twice a day. After thoroughly relaying this information to Fieldstone as well as telling them that 2 other facilities denied her entry - they assured me that her 'personality' wouldn't be a problem. They were true professionals. Quite pleased with their services and would highly recommend them.

I have been bringing my cat Blossom here for about two years for boarding and I am now moving states again, I hope the next place I go I can find somewhere as kind and caring as Fieldstone has been every time she's had to go there. We used them for holiday travels and emergency trips and every time they have been accommodating and able to help us have a safe place to put her! She even got a Christmas stocking when we came back from visiting family which was the CUTEST thing.
They always knew who she was when we called to board her and would always say how sweet she is when she comes and it would make my husband and I have some good laughs that she is so remembered. We hadn't boarded her in a year and called to do so recently and they STILL remembered her. Every interaction I've had there with staff was always so kind and warm (which can be hard to find in Maryland) and I was never worried dropping her off. I am a very anxious cat mamma and always want the best for her and I can't recommend Fieldstone enough.

Our dogs have stayed here for years but recently things have changed and we will never go back. Our last visit was a horrible experience. My elderly dog was not given her meds - they gave them to another dog with the same name! They figured it out when I picked her up and asked for her med case. They were understaffed which I understand can be a challenge but that didn't stop them from taking in a max number of dogs - the attendant told us they were booked full.
I guess money is more important to them than the welfare of the animals. The last few times we have boarded our dogs we have gone to pick them up and not all of the grooming services we ordered were completed - but that didn't stop them from trying to charge us for them. I'd be willing to bet the extra treats and walks we paid for were not given consistently either. I can't believe an owner or manager never reached out to us about the medicine mistake. I have emailed them and no one has bothered to respond. I have let our vet know as well as everyone I know with a dog about the low quality of care provided at Fieldstone.

Fieldstone is our Fonzie's favorite place to hang. He can't wait to get there and doesn't want to leave. He spends the entire next day resting due to his full day of fun the day before. The staff at Fieldstone love our dog like he is one of their own. We highly recommend them for all your animal needs: day school, bath, boarding and more!
