We we're trying to sell our house and wanted to find a doggie daycare close to the house where the pups could play and not be stuck in the car with me while the house was showing. We learned about Pet. Paradise and went for a tour. From the moment we walked in I was impressed. We brought both dogs over for a visit which was at no cost just to see if they liked it. My younger dog hasn't been very socialized with other dogs. Well they loved it! One even went swimming and was playing with the others by the 2nd visit! Love the ... read more

Boarded and paid extra for all day play for EVERY day, the only days he was let out for a couple hrs was when i called to find out why he wasn't out. They sent report card of a very sad dog, 1 picture. On pickup day i called at 11am and they lied to me and said he was brought in to go home at 3, pickup scheduled at 5. I complained and they let him outside for about an hr. He was wet and smelled of urine at pickup. And made sure to make his displeasure known. He seemed to love daycare, but I doubt he would like it after his ... read more

Brought my dog home today from a week here and saw that in her ziplock bag with her Zyrtec was also a bottle of Prozac prescribed to another dog or cat. When I called, I did receive a call back telling me that she wasn't given this med. However, can you be sure? No. I also think about the dog/ cat that needed that med but didn't get it (Harper Sipe). Poor thing. And was never told to bring the med back for the animal that needed it.I have taken my dog here faithfully for years putting her in the VIP suite. For this mix up to... read more

Absolutely not paradise - they count on you not checking on their cameras 1. Daycare - the dogs only play for maybe 2 hours in the morning then sit in their individual rooms the remainder of the day. And if there isn't a group for your dog that day, tough luck your dog sits alone in a cell all day for $35 2. Boarding - same as daycamp, except with the added bonus where we paid for "individual play time" every day, which we saw on camera was just 8 minutes of a girl texting on her phone while our dog sniffed around, then he ... read more

DO NOT BOARD YOUR DOG HERE! One of our Saint Bernards came home injured around her neck and very ill (see photos), requiring a $300+ emergency vet bill after pick up as well as multiple meds and follow ups to get her well. The other, a very social and playful boy who loves people and other dogs was never on the cameras that we checked regularly while away and learned later that he was marked as ALONE as he was "very active". Poor guy spent 5 days in a kennel and only outside for potty alone with an employee. More in a moment... read more

Dogs never go out anymore they sit in their kennel more than going outside. Management needs to figure it out!!!!! Or maybe a new manager? Sounds like manager only cares about money not your dog or employees! Former customers can back me up on this review. If you want your dog in a kennel all day especially boarding dogs, they will sit in kennel for over 3 hours a day then this is your place. They took away toys and put a bubble machine. Some dogs need toys to stay out of fights and distract them from getting in trouble!

The office manager is racist. She thinks she can be an entitled cunt that speaks to people anyway but when I checked her about her nice nasty tone and the b___ played in my face. Made me pay the subscription up, I went to pick up my dog meds and she got me discharged from the practice. So she basically just wanted my money. They don't care about your pets. In the paperwork she detailed our conversation but left out how she provoked me and started talking down to me which cause me to go off on her. She's RUDE. Even when I pul... read more

not all locations are run the same and I learned that the hard way This weekend had a wonderful experience and great care in Charlotte, booked Matthew's this weekend as they were the only area location with room. It is now apparent as to why. staff was nice, but my dog came home with a bleeding, swollen and injured paw, none of her extra food I packed, and extremely lethargic with no updated or filled out services card when i went to check and see what could have happened... since they did not care to let me know.... no pict... read more
