The owner was quickly responsive to our messages and updated us with pictures of the kids while we were away. she is not only just the business owner but she genuinely cares about the pets she boards.

this wasn't the first time she saw this but that it was the worst…read more The owner said she hasn't been eating for days but didn't let me know that till she was in the emergency. I found that they didn't communicate with me appropriately or as often as I would have liked. They didn't allow dogs to play or interact with each other especially if they were large dogs, so they were crated the whole time. They allowed my dog to sit in her urine, so when I visited she smelled of urine. In the end, she starved to death. She also took no accountability, the first thing she said was "I hope you're not mad at me, this wasn't my fault" but she was under their care. Animal control was called on her, and because they had 1 video of them feeding her, and because of Zoe's history with anxiety they aren't going to charge her. So, if you have a pet with issues, find another location.

This is the best pet boarding facility in Alaska. Our twins have stayed here multiple times and…read moreit's well worth the drive from Anchorage. We have total peace of mind while our boys are here. We love that the staff sends us photo updates and that they get to spend a lot of time outside playing. On their most recent stay, we also booked some newly offered spa services. The boys got baths and nail trims. They smell so fresh and have the cutest little bandanas on, and remarkably, their nail trims were successful. I don't know how the staff did it, but Amos has never successfully had his nails trimmed anywhere else. He is a shy dog and he gets grumpy about his nails, so I think it speaks volumes to the level of trust the staff built with him in just a week. Pretty amazing! If you need to board a pet, Lakeside Pet Retreat is a must.

I researched all of the dog boarding facilities in the area and found Doggie Dog World had the best reviews, I now understand why. They really do care for your dog as if they were their own. Initially, I couldn't get ahold of anyone for my inquiry which made me uneasy but after connecting with the owner Julie all those fears went away. You can tell she loves all the pups and is willing to go out of her way to care for them. I thought after a few nights of boarding my shy little lady Journey wouldn't want to go back for daycare but she was so excited to go and play. This speaks volumes as she must have received love and care for her to be willing to be excited to leave us again! Thank you to all the staff who played with my pup even when she was nervous to be there! I appreciate you and the experience you provided for my fur-baby!!

He had never gone before, and I wondered how he would be socializing with other dogs and being away from me. I have had the absolute best experience with Happy Dog Day Camp! My pup is waiting at the door at 6am to go play with his friends! He is tired when he gets home, and I feel very safe leaving him there overnight. (Sometimes, I think that he'd rather be there then at home. lol) The prices are the best in town, and you can drop-off / pick-up any time. You don't have to have a set schedule, which makes a world of difference as far as my own schedule. The owner, John, is always welcoming, excited, and knowledgeable! The girls who work there are also so kind and ready to greet Romer, even at 6:30am in the morning. I highly recommend this place and tell everyone I know about how great it is. If you have a pup/dog and want him to have a fun day, this is the place for you!

My puppy died at this facility! Terrible and heart breaking…read more The second day my puppy was at this facility (Happy Dog Day Camp) on Tudor, she was brought to the local emergency vet dead. Equally appalling and unacceptable is that it took the owner approximately two days to get back to me in regards to what happened. It took 15 days to finally find out what happened to my dog and APD had to get involved. My 5 month old puppy was attacked by another dog, and according to the autopsy, died a traumatic death. There are no cameras at this facility that could have put an end to this tragedy. There are no words that can describe the pain my family and I have gone through. If you love your pets, do not board them here.

I do not recommend Atlas Working K9's! She sent me 2 cease & desist letters & lied about a…read moresettlement when it came to this review. Yelp has now placed a consumer alert on Atlas Working K9 for misusing the legal system. I have video, screenshots, audio recording, & multiple witnesses to validate my review. She also keeps flagging my pictures in hopes to remove my review. Then you have her ex fiancé Mike Milsap & business partners Courtney Odem's husband (who lives in Texas) commenting on here to give her a higher star rating. She also reviewed herself for a higher star rating which was removed. Annabelle is a huge bully & has threatened me 4 times now, made false statements about me, highly unprofessional, & in my opinion not a good dog trainer or person. First, She told me my dog could not be a service dog because of his high drive when she hadn't even worked with him yet. After I already paid $2,875 for board & train! His main goal was to be a service dog not a pet since I don't have a lifestyle that supports a pet dog. Second, I only went to her because it looked like online she did positive reinforcement & she was recommended by the breeder. However, she put a prong collar on my 3 month puppy when I said I wasn't comfortable using a prong since he was so young. A prong collar isn't used in positive reinforcement & shouldn't be used on a puppy under 6 months. She does put prong collars on every dog she works with from what I've seen. I did see an improvement in my puppy with this other trainer after she quit working for Annabelle & no longer had to follow Annabelle's methods. The biggest improvement started when we stopped using the prong collar. Third, no refunds offered at the time she told me my puppy had potential genetic hip dysplasia. She told me if I returned him to the breeder she would just use what was left of my training to train a different dog, not issue a refund. Forth, highly unprofessional & threatened legal action against me 3 times in an attempt to scare me into removing my honest reviews. First threat came when she posted a cryptic post that talked about "stop blaming the dog & the breeder for being at fault & the reason for rehoming a dog". It seemed it was aimed towards me & my dog so I commented & she claimed it wasn't about him (but she had him in her possession at the time of the post). Then she threatened me in private message saying I'd hear from her attorney if I talked bad about her. Second threat was when she SENT ME A CEASE & DESIST LETTER THE DAY SHE POSTED SHE NOW OWNED MY PUPPY & RENAMED HIM! Then in a second social media post over exaggerated everything I said about the puppy as the reasons why I sold him back to the breeder to discredit me & my experience with him!!! Third threat was a 2nd cease & desist letter threatening criminal charges due to my reviews & said I could no longer talk or post about my former puppy Zenyokai (now Apollo)! Not only that but threatening criminal charges against reviews is a very unethical scare tactic to silence me & get me to remove my honest reviews! As well as now owning my puppy & renaming him which seems to be out of spite! Update: She now posted on Facebook & on this review response claiming Zenyokai (apollo) was malnutritioned. (He was not) Then after creating her response on google & slanderous Facebook post, in one of her 20 harassing text messages to me she said I was a great dog mom & cared deeply for zenyokai now apollo. She's using zenyokai (apollo) as a pawn to bash me & the trainer who formerly worked for her. Unfortunately she has google & Yelp flag all my screenshots of proof. So no I do not recommend Atlas Working K9!

Her valuable knowledge and experience create an opportunity for each and every dog to succeed that comes her way. We value her opinion and highly recommend her.
