Riordan's kennel is absolutely the best. My baby is safe, well taken care of and happy to be there. The photos Riordan shares on Facebook proves it.

I had such a great experience here! Everyone was so sweet to my baby and he looks amazing after his visit to the groomer here. If we ever need to board, we will be coming here. 10/10 recommend!

Dixie and I absolutely love Riordan's. Shes a friendly but shy girl and I feel comfortable leaving her I'm their care for her grooming needs. She's gone 2 times now and both times have been nothing but wonderful. I haven't tried the boarding and doggie day care, but if they care enough to take good care of her in the grooming time frame, I'd certainly bet the other parts would also be nothing but the best!
