    My experience with Valley Boarding has always been positive. A 10/10. I have been boarding my fur babies for more than 24 years. They have always been treated with love and kindness. I would highly recommend.

    Annie absolutely loves going to daycare! She cannot get inside fast enough and comes home physically exercised and mentally satisfied. They have a relatively small number of dogs in their care as opposed to the "industrial" doggie day care facilities. I feel the dogs are safe and well supervised. She adores Barb!

    We have boarded our little furry friend Simba twice at Valley Boarding. He did very well both times. The staff was great when I called to check on Simba. He was back to his normal routine when we picked him up. We will definitely board Simba at Valley Boarding again.
