Testimonials

My dog Hans stayed there for a total of 5 nights while we went on vacation. When I went to pick him up he looked so happy. I paid extra for a bath and nail trim and he looked amazing at pick up. Will Definitely be using them for any future boarding needs!

I took my Rough Collie to Perfect Pet as a puppy for the Perfect Pooch program. Our trainer, Whitney, did an amazing job! I had him certified for his Canine Good Citizen, which they did right at the training facility. When I wanted another puppy, I knew immediately she had to go through the same program because of how well behaved my first dog is. I get compliments all the time about how well trained they are and I feel comfortable taking them out to dog friendly events any time I can. Whitney even came to my house when we moved to teach me tricks on getting my dogs acclimated to the new house. I couldn’t recommend them more.
