I received photos and a video While I was away and I was shocked at how He interacted with the ladies that cared for him. He was so affectionate with them, I almost couldn't believe he was my cat. He received very good care. The atmosphere on the property is very calm and the cat rooms have windows overlooking gardens With chickens wandering around. Its a lovely spot. My cat was very relaxed when I picked him up. I will be coming back next time I go away. Thank you Creekside.

I am not happy with the care my 2 dogs received at this establishment. For starters it feels like…read morean animal shelter, all the dogs are going crazy and it's built with chain link and concrete. The sleeping area is quite small, it barely fits a large bed from Costco and the run is also quite short. They do take them out supposedly 2-3 times a day and let them run around in an enclosed yard. But I have a feeling that besides feedings, the walk out to the yard is the only time they are interacting with the staff although I can't say that for sure. I left things for my dogs to chew on to lessen the stress a little but they were never given to them. I sent extra wet food along with their dry food to ensure they would eat but since they hadn't eaten what was put into their bowls previously the staff decided not to keep adding food into the bowls. One of my dogs was starving when he got home and ate double what he normally does. I feel because this is a place to board your dogs that they should be given extra attention in order to make sure they are fed, exercised and comfortable, this clearly did not happen at this kennel. My dogs are very quiet and rarely bark. When I picked them up they were very anxious and stressed. The owner did call me back even though I left a message saying I was very unhappy. He apologized saying that giving the dogs the chew toys had slipped his mind. I don' t feel that this is a good excuse given that this is their job. If you want to save a few dollars and don't care how your dogs are doing while you are away then take them to this kennel, if you do then stay away and pay a little more for your peace of mind and your dogs well being.

We would definitely take our dog here again.

"Please feel free to share" hope to reach the abbotsford community…read more.. We feel strongly that our family pet Tori was let down, neglected and we want people to be aware. NOTE: pics could be disturbing to some. On February 27, 2023 our 13 year old yorkie terrier was attached by another dog or as we were informed "possibly caught on a piece of wire". This occurred while in the "trusted" care of Just About Pets in Abbotsford. She was dropped off around 8am and picked up just after 4:45pm the same day. Signed her out and waited for her to run around the corner. She did not; they were carrying her in a blanket, and I was told she was tired. When I went to put her in her travel kennel, I noticed she is shaking, and I saw the injury. My husband asked what happened and no one seemed to know. He told them he is taking her directly to the Vet. He arrived at the Vet hospital and they were able to see her right away. They said there was a hole in her belly and that she needed surgery right away and had to leave her over night. My husband went home and received a call early the same evening. The vet said that she will have to have surgery the next day as she was too inflamed and infected and they needed to get that under control. The vet expressed they were very upset as she must have been sitting in that state for many hours and they took pictures of the injury. She had surgery the next day with a drain tube. To make this story shorter, she ended needing a 2nd surgery and part of it was due to the infection. It was a difficult recovery and she is still not quite the same. On March 22, 2023 we went to see the CEO for some answers. We asked if there were any cameras and how this could have happened. There must have been blood. We left there feeling nothing was answered, if anything we felt worse. No there is not cameras in the back where they keep the dogs, someone did see a few drops of blood but were not sure where they came from. It could have been a dog bite or maybe from a wire, sticking out, that can harm dogs. He also mentioned that on many occasions they could have up to 60 dogs per day. That is the information we received, so disturbing, brought tears to my eyes. How could there only be a few drops of blood, and even if it were in fact a few drops of blood, do you not investigate to see where it came from? This is how infections started and to leave a pet that has obviously been injured without looking into it for hours is extremely unacceptable no? On March 6, 2023, I went to the back of this facility to where they let the dogs outside, which is a small caged in area. I did see a small to medium sized dog with a larger one. I am not sure how exactly they keep the dogs separated and how it is determined. I have spent endless hours searching for regulations and trying to get information from lawyers. I was unable to find much as far as regulations go. We want to share this hoping this business will change their practices and care for the pets. It is understandable that accidents like this does happen BUT being negligent is being negligent. Pets are our family and this should not be happening. Thank you...

Dog trainer here…read more After a couple of chances I've decided to leave a review and disclose some of the troubling things we've witnessed at this day care. Against my spidey senses and better judgement we gave Just about pets a few tries. Unfortunately there isn't a ton of choice for doggy daycare in Abby. However, after a few days at Just about pets we've decided to make other arrangements for our dog due to safety concerns. Please note that we approached the staff several times about our concerns and some of the troubling reviews, but we were told all the negative reviews were the result of a disgruntled staff. Easy to say. However, we saw with our own eyes that the concerns are very valid. Here are some thing to pay attention to: 1. The smell The place will burn your nose hairs. This says that the dogs are forced to pee/poo inside the faculty. This is a simple health hazard. 2. They do not ask for proof of health. Although everyone has a different view of vaccines, it is concerning that anyone can bring a dog in with a variety of health issues. Our dog got kennel cough very quickly after 1 or 2 visits. We were told that its just a cold. Vet has now said otherwise. 3. The noise There is very little control over the non-stop barking. This speaks of low staff ratio and lack of engagement as well as anxiety in the dogs. If your dog is already anxious, they may come home looking tired but it may be anxiety over the non-stop barking. 4. The lack of control in the front/dog education I was standing at the cashier when a big dog came bounding out unleashed. When you get your dog, they are called into the front room via intercom, The dog is released from the back room unsupervised and allowed to come into the front room. You need to catch your dog before they bound around the store. Today, they let a huge, young dog come running out into the main area and the dog went for me, unprovoked while I was standing in line. Let me be very clear. i did not reach for the dog, make eye contact or engage with the dog at all. The owner was able to pull the dog back but it was a near miss. I'm very lucky that my training ensured that I did not react and she was able to move the dog to her car. The front desk witnessed this and told me it was because the dog is fearful. What are they doing letting a reactive fearful dog off leash into a main area with others dogs, unfamiliar people, children and several disabled staff's dogs???!!!!! This is a tragedy waiting to happen. And it won't be with our dog. Please think twice and look for the signs before you think about sending your dog here.
