Sadly, I would not recommend this kennel. Not for boarding a puppy at least. I was excited at first meeting nice owner, seeing kennels getting cleaned and happy they took my pup on somewhat short notice but that changed after drop off. I was rushed dropping off, zero conversations about care , rushed picking up and not good communication during stay. After getting home, my dog’s behavior was off, had accidents at night, anxious, lost weight, and got a respiratory sickness from there. Very sorry to leave this but it was not a good experience and wouldn’t not recommend for anyone who wants great care & communication. :(

We have boarded our dogs with Playmate Kennels for over ten years and highly recommend this place! Our pup is so excited to visit which gives me peace of mind and I can enjoy my vacation.
My daughter also boards here with a special needs dog. I am thrilled to report that there has never been a problem and she can confidently enjoy our family vacations. 🐾🐕🦺🐾

The care for my frenchie is undeniable. He enters the building and doesn’t even look back at me. Will always bring Mr Moo here for boarding.
