I was upset because I couldn't pick…read morethem up the night I came back for vacation which I can understand but I feel like this place should work like a hotel 24/7 and they were so dirty. The whole place smells bad like they don't clean enough. My little dog is white he was looking more like yellow/ brown. My older dog has so much Anxiety while there. I had used this place before with a different owner and my experience was excellent. Unfortunately not this time. It felt to me just like a business more than they actually care for the animals.

Worst experience we've had. Dropped off both of our dogs for 2 days. Separated our dogs without our…read moreknowledge and then charged us double for boarding the dogs separately(our dogs are always together and practically inseparable). Broke our dogs bowl and then put the bowl back in our bag without saying a word. When we finally pick up our dogs, both were soaking wet and smelled like urine. Not sure if our dogs were ever let outside. Very unprofessional and would not recommend anybody take their dogs here.

I was thrilled with the care my dogs received at Joyful Acres. They were attentive to their…read moreindividual needs, and maintained communication with me about anything they might need during their stay, like medication or food. They promptly returned my phone calls to check on their status. They paid attention to my concerns when dropping them off, and adjusted their care of my dogs accordingly. For instance, my younger dog actually put on some much needed weight while there, and my older dog's failing back legs were well cared for. They mentioned putting tiles down in the run for him on his next visit to make him more comfortable. They also did great with my behavior concerns with my dog. My younger dog, feral as a puppy, really benefited from the socialization he received there. The animal care staff really did a wonderful job. My dogs seemed happy and well-adjusted when I picked them up. In addition to all these positives, the property is very clean and well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to have my fur babies stay there again. The piece of mind Joyful Acres provided me was well worth the hour and a half drive to get to them. To the previous poster who gave them 1 star: living on the property doesn't mean that you are there 24/7, and since you mentioned a storm was coming, I'm sure you would understand their need to prepare as well. There's no reason that a state of emergency would have prevented you from driving there during their "open hours", as there is a fundamental difference between a state of emergency and weather related travel restrictions. You are free to move about during a state of emergency. Your review is based on a misunderstanding of basic emergency terms and an unreasonable demand for services outside their very well posted hours, and so I'm glad Yelp has deemed it "not recommended".

My dog Chewy loves this place! We've been bringing him here now for about a year.. we moved from…read moreHawaii so it took some time to find a place that fit our crazy hyper active dog's needs! What did we like? Facility - We were looking for a place with an area outside that has actual grass and the other kind they can still play on that doesn't get them all muddy. The other daycare and boarding places didn't have much room for pups to run around or it was just a warehouse and no grass. I swear my dog held his pee until we picked him up and walked him to the grass. This place has lots of room to run around and make them tired! They've got separate indoor areas for doggies that either need a break, a nap or just wants to sit up front with the staff. Staff - The staff is amazing!! They do get to know your dog because they are all animal lovers and they know their behaviors! It's so nice when we walk in and they're already greeting Chewy by name. He loves walking in here, he knows as soon as we turn into the parking lot and just pulls us right inside! It seems they always have fun working there and there's always a celebration, like a doggy birthday or pajama theme day or something. Fun staff for sure! Pricing - very affordable! They do half days and full days. The boarding at night is well priced as well.. and we know our Chewy will be able to run around and play during the day. Grooming - they do grooming, baths and nail trimming too! Cons Only thing i was concerned about in the beginning was not any staff present at night time when you board your dog overnight... but the staff reassured us there are alarms and systems in place where staff would be readily available if needed. They all live really close by. So it hasn't been a problem for us at all! I highly recommend this place for all you doggy needs! If they need exercise, socializing or just doggy friends instead of being home alone.. this is the place for them!

I had first come to this office after experiencing frustration and hopelessness with my cat. He was older at the time and we couldn't get a diagnosis.

But Melissa did absolutely everything in her power to make him as comfortable as he could be in the mean time. I had an apt. For euthanasia bc he stopped eating and it was time but we never made it. I had to take him somewhere in the middle of the night I adopt a cat shortly after who has a lot of allergies & some health issues. They have been with me every step of the way. DR.
