Testimonials

On 4/30/2025 Monica White had this to say:
Their daycare/boarding is amazing. My golden retriever always has a blast when he goes. Their groomer is also EXCELLENT! My bullmastiff just went tonight and he absolutely loved her! He’s a very timid and scared baby but she was able to handle him gently and patiently. Nobody has ever groomed him as well as she did. We will definitely be back!

On 4/26/2025 morgan kupec had this to say:
I boarded my dog, Ivy with Tammie’s for 5 days/4 nights. I was nervous because I had never boarded/been away from Ivy. That said, we had a great experience. Tammie’s was patient with Ivy while she adjusted and communicative about her progress. Ivy had a room plenty big with a cozy chair and a window to look outside. We were able to bring her own bed, blankets, toys, food, treats, etc. Ivy is my actual child❤️- that said I would definitely board her with Tammie’s again. I’m considering doggy daycare now, too.

On 4/12/2025 Suzi Noble had this to say:
We took a tour, the staff is really compassionate & the facility is Very nice clean. Dogs have room to roam & you can also have them groomed here as well.

On 4/10/2025 Chris Dornsife had this to say:
I cannot express enough gratitude for Tammie's Dog Services. The owner, Tammie, and her staff are exceptionally friendly, helpful, and truly embody what it means to be animal lovers. From the moment we walked in, we felt assured that our sons dog, Sam, was in caring hands. The facility itself is immaculate and thoughtfully designed, having previously served as an Emergency Care center. This background gives the rooms a perfect setup for housing dogs, ensuring both safety and comfort. Our situation was quite stressful, as my son was experiencing a medical issue, and both my wife and I had to travel for work. With an impending trip and no one to care for Sam, we turned to Tammie's Dog Services. Tammie listened to our story with empathy and went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. Knowing Sam was well cared for during this time was a huge relief. We are incredibly appreciative of Tammie and her staff's kindness and professionalism. I wholeheartedly recommend Tammie's Dog Services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring boarding facility for their furry friends.
