    He will not hold pressure on his front left leg. Picture proof.

    DO NOT TAKE YOUR FUR ANIMALS HERE. I took both of my dogs here from Friday- Monday to stay in a suite. Monday comes and they both seemed to be fine but I couldn't tell much because I was distracted by talking with the people there. As soon as my GS got in the car I could immediately tell something was off with him. He wasn't acting crazy and he was just laying down. When we got home he jumped out of the car and whined, then started limping. I knew immediately something was not right. So I called dog resort - no answer - so I left them a voicemail to call back. I have called 5 times and my MIL called twice. NO ANSWER. so at this point I'm frustrated, and went by the facility. The lady at the front seemed concerned for him and told me she would talk to the people who were around him AND call me back, even wrote it on a sticky note. I HAVE YET, to hear anything back from them regarding my dog. I understand that things happen. He could've just played too hard. Who knows. But I do NOT appreciate the lack of communication. I just wanted to know if they saw anything happen. By them not answering and not contacting me, I'm sure something happened in THEIR facility that they don't want to tell me. I am so upset/angry over this situation. Just spent $150 at the Vet and will eventually spend more because I'm sure he will need X-rays. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT BOOK WITH THESE PEOPLE. I will do all of these dogs justice by telling every person in Florida about this facility. HORRIBLE business. It seems to me they just pack as many dogs as possible to get more money, yet don't have enough people watching.

    The Dog Resort-Butchered my dog!!! (Pics tell the story) My normal dog groomer was unavailable and I took a chance with one of the new groomers at The Dog Resort on March 2nd. We had guests visiting and I wanted a fresh groom for my beautiful dog, a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. My current groomer (Shannon) left The Dog Resort (now I know why) in October 2020. I followed her to her new place, Paradise Grooming in Cape Coral.  See "Before" pics of groomer Shannon's work, immediately following a groom and even weeks after grooming. One "Before" picture even shows my dog the day before she went to Dog Resort and was scalped. Note her beautiful coat, which as one would imagine, requires a trained professional, versus chopping and clippers.  The Dog Resort groomer on March 2nd said my dog was tangled. She's been tangled...but professionally groomed (every 6 weeks) for 9 years. The Dog Resort shaved her, including her breed trademark beard and whimsical legs, to almost skin, something I have never seen in her 9 years. Grooming is grooming, which means you have to groom or or maybe even comb out some areas. Her last groom was only 6 weeks ago and we know there has not been serious weather in Ft. Myers or anything that would impact my dog's normal care and grooming routine. Not that it matters, we brush her every day. Here we live in a small gated community with well-maintained grass and a lanai. She has romped around on acres of land in Pennsylvania, snow, rain, tangled, even matted a bit between groomings, but never ever had someone shaved her. She was no more tangled than she has ever been, as a matter fact even less as a result of friendly Florida weather, paved neighborhood and extra grooming care by my family in our current stay at home mode. This is pure abuse; neglect and laziness. No one has EVER taken clippers and shaved my dog's "Clydesdale" legs. I specifically told the groomer that she has moles and warts, so be careful, thinking she would use scissors and trim her down some as has been done for 9 years. They shaved her entire body bald and exposed moles (no fur/coat protection) and my vet was immediately concerned about these exposed and shaved moles bursting from impact or rubbing on an object. There is also a health concern for skin cancer as a result of shaving her nearly to her bones and direct sun exposure to moles and skin tags. We were told it could take up to 6 months for her leg coat to grow back. The owner, of course, offered a refund. I told her I would pay 10 times the fee to put my dog back together. She said she would follow up with the groomer, I popped in there a couple days later and the owner said the cashier heard groomer say she was going to have to cut her down some. Cut her down? She has been cut down, trimmed, groomed all her life, but never carelessly and recklessly shaved nearly to her bones. She looks like a miniature pony, llama or camel - not a beautiful Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. I have not heard from the owner since. So, add this to all your other bad reviews on YELP. Check out one of the "After" pictures (circled) where one of the moles has burst now and we are concerned about infection. I believe groomers should have to have to be licensed, which they don't, pass some proficiency test, AND have a heart. The Dog Resort is the reason why!!! Butchers! Butchers! Butchers!

    Highly recommend. All of the staff are attentive and accommodating. My puppy has found friends and a home-away-from home, when needed.

    Our two Dachshunds love The Dog Resort. We take them a couple times a month for fun with others doggies. They come home tired.

    How many dogs are in daycare at a time?

    It varies greatly. There could be as few as 6-10. On a very busy day we could have 40-50. We have dogs separated mostly by size, but we do have a few sweet older dogs who mostly just nap that are in with the littles. And on the other hand we have… Read more

    Took a long time to find such a perfect sitter for my precious dogs. I boarded a dog once many,…read moremany years ago and swore I'd never do it again, not a good experience. I needed someone who'd live in my home with them while I was away. I finally found SJS and she's not only a super human, but an exceptional dog sitter! She goes above and beyond, takes amazing photos, let's them sleep in bed with her (as I do) among so many other positive things. Cant even think of one negative. I just pray that Harley, Wags and I never lose her! She's worth every cent and more! We all love her dearly!

    From the owner: Hi there! I’m Sabrina — your trusted pet sitter and future favorite backup sitter! I’ve been raised…read morearound dogs my whole life, from tiny lap pups to big gentle giants, so I’m comfortable with all breeds and personalities. Since I was little, I’ve taken responsibility for feeding, walking, bathing, and grooming my pets — including my family’s shih-tzu, who I absolutely adore. I currently live at home with my parents, which gives me a great support system and plenty of flexibility to focus on your pet’s needs. We also have an older family dog, but my parents care for him while I’m with clients… though he definitely gives me a full sniff-down when I get home to see which furry friend I was “cheating” on him with. Alongside pet sitting, I’m also a Realtor. I’m newer in the field, but I’m supported by an amazing team at my brokerage, and my flexible schedule allows me to dedicate the time and attention your pet deserves. What sets me apart is my patience, affection, and genuine love for animals. I always work to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for. I treat every animal like my own and pride myself on being reliable, trustworthy, and respectful of your home — leaving it exactly as I found it or even a little better. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your pet is doing. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and spoil them with love and attention!
