Astro Kennels

Dogs enjoyed their stay here. Playtime and pool time. Came home all nice and clean after a bath.
I will use them again if in need.

I used Astro Kennels to help me with my Great Dane behavioral issues. They were so awesome! First I went to them to have my dog evaluated, and the facility was clean well kept and the staff was super friendly. Within 10 minutes. Doug had my dog walking on a leash and following his lead without ever saying a word to him. While he was working with my dog he was giving me pointers on what I needed to be doing at home. A few weeks later they came to my home for a training session and it was fantastic! I learned so much and he gave me the tools to train my dog myself. Now my dog is much more well behaved and I have the knowledge to keep working with him. I am so happy I found them!

I had a HORRIBLE experience with these people. I live in Charleston and visit Greenville regularly so I thought I’d found somewhere I could bring Carly on trips. Wrong! After dropping Carly off, I asked what time I could pick her up the next day and only then was I told you must pick her up before noon or else I’d be charged for the next day. I told them that was a huge inconvenience and I’d have to cancel all of my plans and requested to pay a hourly rate seeing as I could pick her up at 2:00 rather than noon. They were so rude and refused to work with me despite risking losing my business. I told them I’d be more than happy to pay a hourly rate for the two extra hours but I felt $ 29 was ridiculous. Then next time I would be able to plan accordingly now aware of the policy. They told me they wouldn’t budge and would make no accommodations or exceptions even at the risk of losing my future business. So in the end I was forced to pay $ 52 for the 22 hours Carly was there. And when I picked her up and expressed my disappointment… the lady at the desk could not have been more rude and told me, «oh well». On top of that, They forgot my dog’s bed and when they brought it out… it was covered in hair that didn’t belong to my dog and They had allowed other dogs to sleep on it! Save yourself the headache and board somewhere else.

My dog seems to love it here. And I’m more than comfortable to leave him at astro. Friendly people and great with Koda.

We have been using this full service, well managed facility on a regular basis for the past 18+ months, and I will say that this review is past due.
We were 1^st time German Shepherd owners when Astro’s was recommended to us. We have learned so much about handling and managing our dogs, which have a different temperament and persona then the previous pound dogs we have owned.
I can’t praise Sandy enough, their lead trainer, for all her guidance and wisdom she has shared with us. She has 4 dogs, 3 being German Shepards, and she knows a lot about all dogs. She is honest with you about your pet. She trains with proud results. She loves her job and it shows.
The long standing staff at Astro’s is awesome and well trained. If your pet has any handy cap whatsoever, this staff can perform miracles, and help your animal overcome any shortcomings. They are a great team and work well together.
Astro’s works very hard accommodating their customers, both two and four legged. If you want a place to bring you pet (s) without worry, this is it. They will play, feed and love your pet better then anyone else.

I have to say that this place is the Bomb-​Diggity for my beloved dogs. I have tried other boarding and play facilities like PetSmart Daycare, but this place delivers the best service and better then anyone. Nothing else out there comes close.
This is a dog owners dream. Large playgrounds. Socialization training. Specialized training. Dog owner training. Heated indoor swimming pool. Reasonable rates. Excellent customer service. These guys are pros at understanding your dog and your needs. They are honestly candid and your dog will not be treated like any other dog. There is no cookie-​cutter service here, as they tailor to your needs. I believe it is also a K9 training facility for the local police force, and the owner is President of the Foothills Search and Rescue. The staff is extremely professional and reliable and very accommodating. If you have any concerns, this well trained staff will help you with unthinkable solutions. They offer options for happy pet owners, like me. :)
Sandy Bayne, one of their top trainers, is the best dog trainer i have ever met. She is honest and candid, direct, doesn’t sugar-​coat, and gets results. Your first meeting with her starts with an assessment of your dog. You will love and trust her immediately. She claims she is ‘still learning’, but I am extremely impressed with her knowledge. She sends us videos and pictures while we travel, keeping us in touch with our missed animals. She is truly a dog lover, and it shows. She is simply the best.
We have been using this facility since May and I have to say that I am extremely happy and my dogs are also happy. Their disposition has become more approachable to strangers, and just seem happier all together. With the world and life being so hectic and busy, I truly have peace of mind using this facility and working with this fine group of people. The entire staff deserves a standing ovation. Really.
