Sage Valley Pet Center

I left my two dogs there in April when I went on vacation. They were clean and happy when I picked them up. The staff is friendly and the place is CLEAN. I would recommend Sage Valley to any responsible pet owner who needs to board their dogs.

I have a dog-​aggressive rescue mutt and it was nearly impossible to find a boarding option that doesn’t mix all of the dogs for playtime. I was so embarrassed calling places to find out if they offered individual playtime and would keep dogs separate (felt like a bad mother…). Thankfully Sage Valley is close to my house and when I called the first time a couple of years ago, the owner was very friendly and understanding when I explained the situation.
My husband and I have left our pup several times for up to 10 days and she’s always happy and healthy when we pick her up. No boarding experience will be 100% stress free for an animal, but we have no complaints after almost 3 years.
I grew up with dogs and my family was always bouncing among boarders (including well-​known commercial operations) because one dog would come home sick or obviously stressed or something else would clearly be wrong. So I feel I know what to look for. My dog does get nervous when we drop her off but, as soon as she sees Katie, she’s perks up and doesn’t resist at all.
Rates are very reasonable and I appreciate that each dog gets an indoor/​outdoor run and that you can purchase additional, individual play times (which we do). I can’t comment on grooming but I give them two thumbs up for boarding.

We had our dog Lucky there for 10 days in April. When we picked him up the back of his tail was wrapped in some form of tape because they said he had «happy tail» and he injured it on something. We were told the wrap would come off by itself so we waited a week or so for it to fall off. After trying to unsuccessfully remove the wrap we took him to the vet who told us it looked like his tail had been crushed by a door or something, and the wrap was put on so tight it cut off circulation to his tail and would have to be amputated. Now our dog «lucky» has a 2 inch tail and when we spoke with the owner we were told they would do nothing and then hung up on us. I would not recommend this facility to anyone.

Big turnover in groomers; not happy with the grooming and had to leave my dog for 9 hours; stressed in a cage for almost 9 hours when my appointment was 8:00am! Rude owner, I was rude back! Done with this company!

I have a Keeshond and his place is the first place I have found that does a great job grooming her. Kim is her name she only works weekend. Very reasonable rates for boarding. Brain and Kim were very professional and truly care for animals. Best place recommend to everyone that owns a dog.
