I had a sudden job position change, which has caused me to put my dog in boarding for the last 3 weekends in a row. Shagbark has been an absolute pleasure! My dog comes home happy and tired. They post daily photos on their Facebook page, so you can see your fur babies playing with their little fur friends on a daily basis. They even send you home with a little "report card" letting you know how pup was for their time at camp. There's really no other place I'd trust to bring my pup!

We have two dogs. This time and last time (maybe a year ago) our little one came home STARVING. This time they missed our big dogs lunch feeding and breakfast for both the day of pick-up. When theybrought the dogs out the little obes harness wasnt even on correctly. And they over charged me.if I hadn't asked for an itemized bill nothing would have been said. To top it all off, I was told that the feeding mishaps were an "oversite".

Your ONE job is to take care of live animals, people's pets. And feeding them, I would think, would be a top priority. Boarding my dogs is supposed to take the worry away - especially when this last stay was due to a family emergency. I should have known when I had to call twice just to get a response. This place used to be top notch. NEVER AGAIN.

Our pup always has a great time playing with her friends whenever she stays for boarding and day care. Their grooming and bail trimming services are nice as well. She always comes home happy and wore out from all the play time

Our family loves Shagbark Pet Kennels! We all love our furry friends as much as our family members.sometimes even more! I was very concerned about Skylar's demeanor when she was around other dogs as she can be very be very protective around me to the point that I can't take her to the dog park anymore. The first time I took her there I was a nervous wreck and I called and they reassured me that she was just fine!

She is a husky/ German Shepherd mix. Jamie is one of the best assets there! Skylar cries when she sees her and I feel like I am dropping Skylar off at my best friends house! All the people there are great! The staff always does their best to accommodate my dogs needs. Skylar is now 11 and I know I have used them for most of her life. :- Daycare is also THE BEST! Skylar comes home so exhausted that I love that she chills out for at least a day when she arrives home! When I say to my dog. Do you want to go to the SPA? She knows and goes crazy!
