WOW WOW WOW!!! I’m obsessed - from the aesthetic of the place, the workers, the owner, the whole experience we have experienced this week. Completely stress free and confident when dropping my pup off here knowing she’s in great hands. You can tell everyone here has a passion for what they do. The prices are great, location perfect. We will definitely be a long term customer. Penny loves coming here and if worn out by the time we get home. Y’all are amazing!
I am extremely disappointed with the lack of communication during my dog's most recent 9 night stay. (First time boarding under new owner since it was bought out several months ago) When I picked up my dogs from boarding today, I noticed one of their toenails has been completely ripped off- a painful and serious injury. What's worse is that no one from the facility contacted me to let me know that this happened (on day one I later found out by the manager when I called) while he was in their care. Accidents do happen, yes, but failure to inform me all together is unacceptable. I didn't learn of his injury until I returned home and noticed it myself which then prompted me to call and gain clarity if they were aware of the incident which the manager/new owner, Tori, confirmed witnessing the incident the day we dropped him off. I expressed that I felt this deserved a phone call to let me know what happened. Upon speaking with the manager, Tori, I was told " I am sorry you feel that way" & "I have a veterinarian background", as opposed to the empathy I expect from the individuals with which I trust the care of my dogs. I am appreciative that they tended to his injury promptly and monitored it while he was boarded, however, I still would have expected to be notified. As pet owners, we trust boarding facilities with our dogs like they are our children (because they are) - we trust that facilities are being transparent and responsive when things go wrong (even if the facility feels as though they have treated it appropriately) In giving this google review, I hope that the communication improves between the facility and dog owners before I would feel comfortable boarding here again.
Our pups absolutely love daycare and boarding at The Doghouse! They came home tired and happy 😊 the staff did an excellent job of communicating with us & the facility is 10/10!! They can’t wait to go back!
They are truly amazing and care for all the pups like their own. I was super nervous trying out a daycare but it has now became my dogs favorite place. All the staff is super sweet and amazing with communication!
My pup loves this place so much! Great staff!! If I mention doggie day care she gets real excited! This is the third day care I’ve used in Lafayette and this will be my go to from now on. Five stars all the way!
