Rhonda, the owner of Bonny Doone, is knowledgeable and extremely helpful. She took excellent care of my Cockapoo, and her expertise and attention to detail is exceptional. The facility is immaculately maintained, and even displays Disneyland-like bushes in the shape of adorable dogs! So, great, clean atmosphere, and caring, expert staff! A great value, and overall fun place for your pup!

Our Abby, a 22 month old doodle has been going to daycare at Bonny Boone for just over a year and we love the team there. The excitement Abby has when we pull in the driveway is a great feeling. The facility is clean, the team is professional and and if they ever notice something I may have missed with Abby. such as she's been licking her paw a lot, they let me know so I can keep an eye on it. Abby occasionally gets to spend the night and to be able to leave her and know that she's in good hands is such a great feeling and removes anxiety about leaving her behind. Thank you!

We used Bonny Doone one weekend when staying in the area. Our hotel was dog friendly, so we dropped them in the morning, went out for the day, and picked them up at the end of the day. Very friendly staff and our pups seemed to enjoy it.

What is not to like about Rhonda and her crew. They take excellent care of Hank & Isabell. They look forward to going for their stay with them. Clean environment, excellent and knowledgeable staff. Makes us feel at ease about leaving them.
