Great place. I take my 100 pound Doberman there and he loves it! He always comes back in good shape and loves the play groups. The staff who take him in and out seem to know him and his goofy quirks. The reservation form is annoying but this place has openings and availability and friendly and competent staff. I am glad they are vigilant about vaccines and checking for fleas.

I just started taking my dog here when I can't get home on my lunch break. The front desk is always so kind. My dog had only been there one time before they already knew his name. When we walk in the door he gets very excited to see the staff and go play. He comes home exhausted which says a lot because he's a jack Russell terrier puppy. The fact that they keep them from 7 to 7 is amazing I haven't found any place else that has hours like this. I just wish the prices for grooming weren't so expensive. He's small and it would've cost me $40 just for a bath. I truly believe the dude ranch love animals.

We absolutely love this place - and so does our chocolate lab! He hops right out and cannot wait to go inside and play with his friends. It's great for us to be able to travel now knowing our four-legged loved ones are in Loving Hands. Thank you dude ranch!:-)

A great experience for our dog. He was there for a practice day and night then for 11 days. He had no issues- staff were loving to him.and reassured us that he would be fine since this was his first time being boarded other than staying with friends!

Fabulous furr fun! Our first visit was a success. Very impressed with the level of detail they asked about my dog - temperament, comfort level, play style. They even asked what my goal was. Also impressed with the large retail area with almost anything you could want or need. We were greeted and checked in quickly. Employees patiently answered my questions. Got a great report on his day when I came for pick up. My dog looked happy and well-exercised, so I was happy. Looking forward to a boarding stay soon!

Love this place, have been using it for several years now. It's run by true animal lovers and they treat my pets like their own. My dogs always go enthusiastically, and they seem happy and normal when I pick them up. Someone is always on site. I also appreciate the fact that they don't charge extra to give medications. Before I found Dude Ranch, another place was charging a dollar per pill, which really added up for my older dog.

They are wonderful to my dog Augustus and very accommodating. I always feel at ease knowing he is safe, happy, and well taken care of with them. I highly recommend them. Thank you!

Another job completed. Help assist a customer to order leaf springs for his RV. I did not have time myself to do the repair but I got him under way and helpers him to locate the parts with initial visit with my mobile service so hopefully he is on his way. I asked him to reach out if he needed anything else and he confirmed all was going well. I was able to help him and the tech with the slight size difference and understanding of the aftermarket parts so I’m assuming all went well. Very nice gentleman and the place overall seemed like a great place from what I could take from his description of what they do there. Dog racing and other events. Seems like fun. I wish him the best of luck and I am definitely interested in visiting myself now and maybe bringing my dog or calling for more information. Beautiful spot and over all sounds like a good time!! Here is a picture of what had happened. This had broke and I was able to quickly locate two of them so he could get back on the road. Feel free to visit my page as well if your in need of any vehicle repairs problem we do it all!! Best of luck to this gentleman and I am sorry I stay so busy but at least I could get him started and on his way on time!! Good to here!! He works at here he explained. No need to put all of his information out but spoke highly of Dude Ranch and was a very understanding and hard working gentleman. Regards.
