We have bern staying in Fort Walton Beach for several weeks with our Australian Shepherds. In our…read more"neighborhood" we noticed Mercy's Stay + Play dog boarding, daycare, and grooming. While our pups are not the doggie daycare type, they were stinky. I stopped in and spoke with the owner, Josh. I was impressed with his passion for his business and his knowledge of the Fort Walton Beach area. After talking with him, I completed an information sheet on the dogs. It was great to see the vaccine records checked before the dogs could be groomed. Kaylee, the groomer, called me and we scheduled the appointments. Over the phone, Kaylee was so personable. In person she was so professional and positive about our dogs. When we picked them up, the dogs both smell good and are SOOOO SOFT. If we lived here, Kaylee would be our groomer! Thank you Josh and Kaylee. We are happy that we found Mercy's Stay+Play!

Vacationing in Destin for a week, I wanted a place there to board my dog…read more I loved Four Paws! Much less expensive than in Atlanta, PLUS much better, as far as my 13-year-old Australian Shepherd is concerned. First, the owners, Jeff and Billie, were great taking time to talk with me the month before we came. They are very serious about their business... and about their clients. Then, they treated my old fella great. When I picked him up, he was actually doing better than when I left him! He didn't over-play like he'll do in Atlanta, and hurt himself. They obviously gave him his medicines regularly. He got to run free and interact with other dogs. BEST, he was kept inside, which is good in that baking Florida heat... he's not cut out for it. They'll also let you "check your dog out" if you want to get him for the day and take him to the beach or something. Ideally, the house we vacation in would allow pets. But, the next best thing, I am convinced, is Four Paws for boarding.

We boarded our dog here during a short business trip and had an absolutely heartbreaking…read moreexperience. Our dog is a sensitive, anxious boy -- this was his first time away from home. We provided everything: his crate, toys, custom-cooked meals (beef, carrots, rice), dry food, water and food bowls, even a special chew stick. All they had to do was keep him safe, fed, and take him out. When we picked him up, they casually said he was "fine" -- just "a bit aggressive during the storm." That's a lie. They wouldn't even bring him out to us. We had to open the kennel ourselves, and he came out *terrified,* shaking, and trying to escape like his life depended on it. Once in the car, he shed an abnormal amount from stress. When we got home, the horror became clear: - His bowls and food containers were returned empty, but our dog was starving. - The chew stick was missing. - He drank and ate frantically as soon as he got home. - He struggled to urinate, and when he did, it was dark brown, thick, and painful. - He could barely poop -- then suddenly had 5 massive bowel movements and 11 urinations within few hours. His stomach was rock-hard and painful to touch. This poor dog clearly wasn't let outside, wasn't fed properly (if at all), and was likely locked in a small room for two days like in jail. This is not just unprofessional -- it's neglectful and cruel. I regret ever trusting them with my dog. If you care about your pet's health and emotional well-being, please go somewhere else. P.S. A year and a half ago he was a small puppy and this place under previous owner. This time dog was never been outside for 2 days. Never fed. He was very scared. The quality of this dog's "hotel" scared even German Shepherd! If I can put -10 stars, I would. There is no qualified stuff there and overall all conditions for the dogs are terrible. Super small place, packed with scared dogs all types and they are barking so loud all the time, so you can't talk to the stuff at all. So the stuff didn't even have a chance to hear any instructions of your dog. This place is not for a dog you love, definitely!

I took my dog in last Thursday and I was supposed to get the results of the test on Friday. I waited for a call on Friday, but never received a call. I later found out that the results did come out on Friday, but they didn't notify me. I talked with some customer service representative type of lady (not front desk) on Tuesday and she said they couldn't give me the results and medicine on Friday since the doctor was out at the other branch. If that was the case, they shouldn't have told me I would get the results the next day. Also, they should've communicated that information with me. Instead I waited Friday and the weekend (since they are closed) and then called on Monday, only to be told the doctor would call me. Today? Tomorrow? When? Meanwhile, my dog is supposed to suffer because of the doctor's rotation schedule? After i called back again on Tuesday, they claimed they were going to call me and instructed me to come pick up the meds. We ended up waiting 5 days for only 3 days worth of meds. Had they notified me when they said they would, my dog would be fine by now. I used to like this place because the doctors and receptionists were friendly and nice to my dog. But the "system" and the poor customer service over the last 5 days have made me very unhappy with this business.

I can't say enough good things about how much help she has been, how good her training has been and how much we absolutely love her services. And her price point is on par with her competitors and speaking to the training we received it is very well priced! You won't be disappointed.
