    I was looking for a new dog sitter for our two daschunds. Our previous sitter would have up to 20…read moredogs at a time and was unable to give our dogs much attention or interaction at all. When we found out that our blind one spent the whole time there hiding we knew it was time to find someone else. We boarded our two dachshunds at the Barksville Inn and were very happy with the loving care they received. My husband and I decided to give the Inn a trial run before our upcoming longer vacation. We were nervous about leaving them with someone new, especially Lucy, the blind one. Turns out we were the only nervous ones. Buddy and Lucy did just fine! Kevin and David are caring people who really love dogs. They had a huge fenced in yard, which was a plus. Unfortunately, it rained most of their stay there. Hopefully it will stop raining next week! We will be taking them back then for a longer stay. I feel confident that they will be well cared for. I recommend the Barksville Inn 100%!

    Although we have used this business in the past with satisfactory results, our dog recently…read moresuffered an injury while at Barksville Inn. We were not notified, nor was a vet consulted at the time of injury. By the time we fetched our pup 2-3 days later (Kevin could not say when it had happened) and discovered the half-dollar-sized wound, it was too late for our vet to apply stitches. We provided oral and topical antibiotics, performed ongoing, twice-daily soaking treatments, and revisited the vet, all of which led to eventual healing. Kevin did not call to check on the dog, did not offer reimbursement for vet or kennel fees, did not seem to feel any remorse for having inflicted damage to our dog (apparently due to "backing up the wheelchair"). Very worrisome and disappointing.

    After YEARS of grooming and boarding our dog, our groomer retired. Almost Home did NOT continue our…read moreregular appointments (how stupid is that?) and now they tell us there's NO ROOM on their schedule. That's outrageously bad customer service. If they don't care about our dog, they don't care about yours.

    I boarded my chihuahua at Almost Home for almost a week. The facility was nice with private kennels…read morethat would allow the dogs to access the outside. They require a meet and greet for new dogs, so we visited the kennel before her scheduled stay and got to view the facilities then . When we dropped off my dog, my mom wanted to take a quick look at the kennel because my mom has owned a cat kennel (out of state) for 30 years. The owner was reluctant, because they normally schedule these viewings, but let her see the back briefly. The concept of only allowing scheduled viewings bothers me a bit (because in my opinion, nothing should be happening at any point that you wouldn't want a dog owner to see), but I understand that some kennels operate that way . When we picked her up, my dog and her bedding were covered in urine (her coat was sticky from dried pee). The owner said that had some inappropriate elimination issues while she was there. This isn't unusual for animals in unfamiliar environments, so I would think a dog kennel would be prepared to deal with these situations and be able to keep the animals reasonably clean. Since her bedding was covered in urine (which the kennel owner seemed a little surprised about), along with her body, I can only assume she was sleeping in a urine coated bed and her bedding wasn't changed out when it became soiled. Overall, the people were friendly (they sent me a couple photos of my dog the day after we dropped her off) but I wouldn't board my dog here again. I really wanted to support/recommend Almost Home because my parents have owned and operated a cat boarding kennel for 30+ years, and I like to support mom-pop businesses, but I have to say I am pretty disappointed.
