Cat Sitters in Downtown

My wife and I have been bringing our dog here for four years now and I couldn't ask for anything more in a dog daycare! We have used their training, daycare, and grooming services and I would recommend all of them. The owners and staff feel like family and genuinely care about our dog. If you're worried your dog won't like it, rest easy. Our dog runs to his leash in the morning to ask us to take him in!

I’m so grateful for Grateful Pets! Since 2019 my dog has loved coming here and I love knowing I can drop her off in a safe place for her to play with other dogs. The owners Richard and Rebecca are fantastic human beings as well their General Manager Bren who is always so genuinely friendly and attentive. Plus, they do nail trimmings for which I am extra grateful considering my dog has black nails which can make that challenging; they do such a great job! If you’re reading this because you’re trying to decide on a daycare for your beloved pet, then seriously come to Grateful Pets. Try them out. You won’t regret it!

My dogs love to go there. I have one in training right now and another who went through the training program. Richard is the best trainer you could ever ask for and all the staff is great, especially Bren!

Amazing place! My golden retriever has been going to daycare at Grateful Pets for a few years now and absolutely loves it! We also did some training with the owner Richard which helped immensely. Would recommend to anyone in the area. Thank you Bren and Richard and the rest of the staff for all of your hard work and care.

They do an excellent job trimming Roxy’s nails. Lovely staff and always a wonderful experience. They are very patient.

You always hope that your dog sitters, vets, groomers, etc. will treat your dog like they are their own. That's how my wife and I always feel leaving our dog with Rebecca and Richard at Grateful Pets. I never worry about leaving him because I know they take such good care of him. And when I pick him up he always looks great! In addition to being caring, they are incredibly knowledgeable. Rebecca is well trained as a groomer and it shows. Our old dog also has a heart condition and she always reassures me that she'll take extra good care of him. I know she means it. (she even knows doggy CPR!). I can't recommend this place enough.

Nothing but great things to say. The owner Richard and Bren working the front, and the rest of team at the facility has been nothing but professional and kind. I have a 4 year old rescue Amstaff Terrier that has been handful (as many rescues are with manners early on) but an amazing kind loving dog. He's come so far this past year (living on the streets and abused). I signed Falkor up for training for that extra nudge he needs to get him past some of those rescue hurdles. We are still early in training but the communication from everyone has been great, and they came highly recommended (I can see why). Falkor absolutely loves going here and I can tell he gets his exercise in. The staff tells me how much he loves coming here everytime I drop him off, and I can tell he gets a ton of the proper stimulation that he needs for his breed. If you're looking for doggy day care, or training I highly recommend Grateful Pets as a dog parent. I'll update how the training goes, but I'm positive Falkor is in great hands with the team at Grateful Pets on his training journey!

I bring my dog here for nail trims about once a month. Bren gives the fastest, least stressful, and best nail trims my dog has ever gotten. $20 for my dog to have his nails done perfectly in literally less than 5min every time (I've time it before lol) is a STEAL, especially considering he comes back happy and wiggly and unbothered.

I’m dog sitting for my daughter’s St. Bernard and she gets very excited and is trying to push open the door to get in when I drop her off. So 5 stars from the dogs point of view!

They do an excellent job training dogs and dog sitting. I am very glad we found them.

We have been using West County Walkers for our puppy for about 6 months and could not be happier! They are extremely reliable, flexible, and Pixel loves her mid-day walks with them!

I was extremely pleased with the service I received from West County Walkers. I needed someone to walk my dog very early in the morning while I was laid up after knee surgery. Rob and Jillian were terrific with my pup. They were always on time and very pleasant. My dog loved them! Their prices are reasonable, and they are fully insured. I highly recommend them and I will be using them again after my next knee surgery surgery.

West County Walkers has been caring for my pups for 8+ years. They are reliable, communicative, and I never have to worry if my pets are getting good treatment or if they will show on time. I cannot recommend Rob and his team enough!

We have used West County Walkers for six months and very very pleased with their service. Hannah loves all the walkers and they are all very professional and friendly. Would recommend WCW to friends and neighbors. Happy we found you.

The finest in home pet care our dogs have ever received! Pictures and updates on every single visit they made to our home! Reliable, responsible, and loving with our dogs! West County Walkers are Simply The Best!!!

I couldn't be happier to have our fur baby Lily cared for by West County Walkers. I found them about a year ago when we had a horrible experience at a Kennel where Lily came home not so happy and with Kennel Cough even though she was vaccinated. The Kennel had cameras and we could see that Lily wasn't happy. With West County Walkers they came to the house, walked Lily took pictures took care of our mail and just made us feel at ease. Lily got to stay in the house by herself and nap and bark at things as she pleased. I will definitely use them again and again.

Very dependable and the walkers are great. The dogs are well cared for and the walkers send reports so the owner knows how they are behaving. I have used the service multiple times when I have been out of town. I’d recommend West Co Walkers to anyone needing a reliable dig walking service!

West County Walkers did an AMAZING job of taking care of our four fur babies (2 cats and 2 dogs) plus watering flowers outside etc. I love the daily service reports with pictures and quick response for any communication needed while out of town. I would recommend them 110%! Thank you Rob and all the pet sitters! We truly appreciate all your hard work and how much you love our pets!!

We love our dog almost more than our child. Rob and his crew takes great care of our dog when we are away and is very reliable. Trustworthy and responsible. Highly recommend them. Have used a couple different services and no one is as good as West County Walkers.

WWC is a wonderful service. We started using them earlier this year when they were referred to us by a neighbor and have not been disappointed! The scheduling process is super easy. The communication from every one of the walkers, including what they did during their visit, how our animals were doing and pictures is wonderful! We have gone away a few times now and know that our home and animals are well taken care of and safe!

Brian has been nothing but flexible and understanding while walking my dog Hooch. Hooch's temperament is a bit on the anxious side, and having Brian walk him has made a big improvement in how relaxed he is in the evening. Brian has also been very accommodating with shifting his walk schedule from time to time due to my work schedule. Great communication, and has always let me know how my dog was for the day if I ask.

Brian has been amazing! Brian has been walking my Chocolate lab since I was relocated to St. Louis in January. He is great at communicating how your pet is doing and any changes he notices. He has been super reliable and adaptable to my work schedule. I would recommend STL Happy Dogs to anyone looking for someone who cares about the care of their pet.

Brian really helped me out during my travels through St. Louis. I had tried several larger dog sitters and all were either booked, didn’t return my calls or required a meet and greet prior to my dog spending the day. Upon meeting Brian, he was immediately aware of my dog’s anxiety due to traveling. She willingly went with him which made me feel at ease about leaving her. I am so glad Brian was able to keep my dog as active as I was while we visited St. Louis. His prices are reasonable and his service was greatly appreciated.

I agree, Brian was a lifesaver! He was able to watch my dog Riley when I had some last-minute plans. We did a meet a greet and my dog loved him, she was immediately at ease! Brian was super easy-going and nice to work with. He even took care of Riley's upset stomach after getting into the trash (sorry!). I felt horrible that she got sick at his place, especially bc I was running late picking her up the next day! But he was so nice to take care of her and was not upset that I was late or at the fact she got sick at his place! He even said she was welcome back :)

Brian with STL Happy Dogs watched our 3 cats when we went on vacation recently. He was responsive and made sure they received lots of pets, food and a clean litter box. Our travel plans were disrupted and we had to stay an extra day and Brian made time to stop by and check in on the cats that extra day. It's clear he really cares about the pets he is caring for. Would highly recommend!

I had a great experience with Brian when I was a student and needed someone to care for my new cat over school breaks. He was very professional and accommodating to the specifics of what I needed, including playing with and spending time with my cat. He took great care of my neighbor's dog, too. Would highly recommend Brian/STL Happy Dogs for any dog AND/or cat care.

Brian was a miracle worker from day one. His response time was impeccable. We struggled with getting control of our rescue dog for nearly three years before we reached out to Brian & STL Happy Dogs. His presence was immediately helpful with finally integrating our dog into the household as a real family member. We have also used his boarding services when we travel and I wouldn't trust my dog more with anyone else.

Brian did a nice job taking care of my 2 kitties over a weekend. He was calm and quiet so they took to him instantly! He has reasonable prices, sent pics of my cats at his visits and he kept their food and litter bucket areas immaculately clean. I really appreciated that. I would use his services again .

Brian was very responsive when I contacted him on-line for pet sitting on short notice. He came right out to our house to meet the animals. While we were away he kept in communication with us about how it was going, especially with our dog who can sometimes be reluctant. It so happened that our neighborhood lost power due to a storm while we were away, and Brian let us know and was making sure it didn’t get too warm in the house for the animals. He visited several times a day, and was very flexible when we let him know we would be returning later than originally planned. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Brian and STL Happy Dogs, LLC again, and actually plan to in the very near future! Thank you Brian!

Brian watched our cat for two trips and we’ve been very happy with the service. He came by ahead of our first trip and learned our cat’s needs and routine. He sends text updates with a photo with each visit, which we appreciated and keeps everything tidy.

Celsi is the BEST boarding host! She is absolutely caring about each and every one of the pets she watches and my dog loved her so much I wasn’t sure she’d want to come back home! Not only is Celsi an amazing host but the environment she provides for the dogs is such an essential primal canine experience because dogs are pack animals. I have not seen my dog thriving more than when she’s roaming as part of the pack! I highly recommend boarding at Celsi’s Dog Care. You can feel confident that your pet is getting the best attention and stimulating environment while you’re away.

I just had the best experience boarding my dog at Celsi’s! Celsi is super friendly and really cares about the animals. The facility is clean and spacious, with tons of space for exercise and play. I loved receiving daily updates and photos—they really put my mind at ease knowing my pup was having a great time. When I picked him up, he was so happy and clearly well taken care of. I can’t recommend Celsi’s enough for anyone looking for quality dog boarding. I’ll definitely be back!

Celsi is awesome! My family planned a road trip through St. Louis, and wanted to go up in the arch, but dogs aren’t allowed. I found Celsi through maps, and she was easy to get a hold of, and said that she could watch my Shepherd mix while my family went to the arch. I totally forgot to submit all of my paperwork and confirm my booking, but she made it work for me, even though it was my mistake. She was so accommodating, and took great care of my dog while I was gone. So glad I found her!

Celsi is the best! We’ve boarded twice with her. Our two pups get all the love and attention they need. They were spoiled and loved playing with the other dogs. Great socialization for your pups.

Celsi is amazing. Her love for the dogs is clear and I know our lil dog is in good hands when I drop her off for daycare. I love that they are active and get to play, but also have opportunities to snuggle up and relax. I also love that she takes pictures of the pups playing that I get to see while I’m away! We took a 10 day vacation this year and boarded with Celsi. We had no issues and Celsi makes the whole process easy. She was a happy loved dog when we brought her back home. I’m so grateful we found Celsi!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! I just recently moved back into the area and I have an 8 month old puppy named Bear. I work full time and had in home care for him regularly up until a month ago. I wanted to find somewhere that was warm and welcoming but also safe for my dog. Celsi is all of those things and more! Bear has been going for almost three weeks and I have already begun to see positive behavior changes. He is so tired when he comes home in the best way possible and just relaxes. He now knows when we are going and happily jumps in my car to go. I take Bear 2-3 days a week and the prices are extremely reasonable for the care and level of love your animal is getting. Celsi is professional with her business and processes as well as considerate of people like me who are new to this process. Her daughter makes and sometimes sells home made treats which are nutritious and yummy. Celsi posts on Facebook which I love because I can see how Bear is doing when I am not with him. I cannot say enough positive things about this little gem of a business in Affton!! Look no further If you are looking for a place for your dog to be loved, mentally stimulated and safe. I am so grateful we have found her space and can’t wait to watch Bear make new friends and grow there.. :)

We are so lucky we found Celsi’s Dog Care a little over 2 years ago! We have such peace of mind when we leave our dog for vacations knowing that Celsi treats them like her own! She’s very accommodating, keeps you in the loop with pictures and videos, and my dog loves her! I can’t recommend her enough!!

I have used Celsi multiple time to watch my pup on long trips and have never felt better about the care of my pup! He gets so excited to see her so I know how well she treats him! I get pictures and videos and when I reach out to check on him she responds quickly. Celsi is great to work with, professional and organized. Finally, her prices are the best I have found, which is great because I feel I get the family touch for a price much lower than the big kennels! I highly recommend and will continue to work with her!

Celsi is amazing. I take my 4-month-old puppy once or twice a week and he has the best time ever he comes home. He's happy. It's an amazing place. They have little dogs. They have larger dogs but she does a great job with all of them. I recommend it highly

Celsi is AMAZING! We boarded our three pups for the first time and had some hesitancy about doing so because they’re our babies. But Celsi made sure to update us when we requested and she always posted pics and videos of them so that we could see how much fun they were having! She definitely gave us a sense of comfort and trust when it came to caring for our pups. We would definitely use Celsi’s services again and definitely recommend her go all the dog moms and dads out there!

St. Louis Dog Butler is amazing. I travel a lot (sometimes last minute) for work, and they are always able to provide cat-sitting services. I couldn't recommend this company more. The pet-sitters are kind and communicative and the prices are reasonable as well. If you're looking for top care and affection, and true comfort that your pet will be well taken care of, you'll find it here.

St. Louis Dog Butlers are great! Very reliable and professional. I always get the cutest photos of my dogs on the walk. Our two dogs always have the best time, especially with Nathalie and Chelsea.

We've used St. Louis Dog Butler multiple times to watch both our dogs and cats. They have always been professional and kind. I feel like our pets are safe and cared for with them. We will absolutely be using them for all of our pet care needs in the future. Would highly recommend!

Saint Louis Dog Butler has been such a godsend for when I've been on call shifts and my boys have needed to be let out and walked! They have been reliable and the scheduling process is super easy. I love the pictures and updates I get about the boys from their walks.

We absolutely loved this service! Our dog was super nervous and Julia did a fantastic job of bonding with him! She took the time to coax him into trusting her and he got to the point where he was excited to go on an adventure with her! We mostly used the service for a midday walk while we were away at work, but it worked well on the days we happened to work from home as well! We never had to worry about our walker not being around, it gave us a lot of peace of mind that if Julia happened to be out of town, etc. there would be another well-qualified walker to fill in for her and our schedules wouldn't be impacted. Getting the photos and report card about the walk was really a bright spot in the middle of the day while we had to be away from our pup. So nice to know that he got out and explored every day!

Saint Louis Dog Butler has never disappointed. Very caring, safe, efficient and more than willing to cater their services to you and your loved pets. I’ve trusted them for many years and will do so always.

Honestly I can’t recommend St. Louis Dog Butler enough. They do so well with our German Shepherd and have been taking him on walks since he was 2 years old, and he’s 5 now. I love the updates and pictures we get of him while we’re at our work or out of town.

We have used St. Louis Dog Butler for over 8 years. Their attention to doggie details is very much appreciated. Highly recommend getting regular walks for your pups.

I've been working with this service for years: they also take care of cats, despite the name! My cat has always been well-cared for. I appreciate the daily text messages and pictures that keep me updated about her well-being.

Sherman loves his visits from Saint Louis Dog Butler staff members. They walk him for the agreed time and end each walk with lots of love and pets. Having Saint Louis Dog Butler on duty gives Sherman a break and prevents accidents.

We have been using love unleashed for about 2 years now, and they are the BEST! All of the workers are so nice and truly care for your dogs. They’ve been very accommodating when we need to board or bring our dog Liesl to daycare, and their prices are excellent for the value. I love seeing the pictures they lost of the dog, and I have no worries when drilling her off when going out of town on a trip. We routinely get the 20 day package and you can use the 20 days when you need them. It doesn’t have to be consecutive. They’re open a while too so you have plenty of time to get your dog after work. Our dog always comes home happy, and they’re very communicative if you have any questions. I have taken my dog to their South City and Crestwood location and they are both top notch. Thank you Love Unleashed for all you do! Everyone we’ve ever interacted with has always been so kind.

SMALL DOG OWNERS… PLEASE READ! I am upset. Let me start by saying, to the girl who answered the phone if I was short or rude, I apologize, I was panicking. I brought my 18 week, 10 pound puppy in for his second play day. I felt ok with this place, after they confirmed that small dogs had their own area. It is also super close to me, which was great. It was nice to have a puppy break. At pick up, I signed up for the 10 day package as it was a great deal. When I was handed my puppy, he did some weird wiggling in my arms. It was like he was uncomfortable, to the point that in the front room I put down my things and repositioned him. I got puppy home and we got situated. I went to pick him up and he started screaming/yelping/crying. I panicked. I tried again in another two or so minutes and he did it again. At that point I’m in full panic, changing back into clothes for emergency vet, racking my brain and then, duh, doggy day care. As I’m changing and getting his carrier, I call love unleashed and told them my dog is yelping / crying in pain. They said they didn’t know and he seemed fine but would review tapes (what can they say). I said refund my money, we have to go to emergency. I asked how big the dogs are in the small dog area, and then I remembered the pic of him being pinned down by an Aussie dog at least 45 pounds. Full on pin down, dog had all his weight on him. Mind you, this is ONE photo I saw. Unfortunately, he was there for 7-8 hours. My puppy is ok, just beat up from rough play and on bed rest. I have a 25 pound dog at home and I heavily monitor their play, almost limit it bc 25 adult pounds on a 10 pound puppy is still a lot. In no way is it reasonable to have dogs that are 40-50 pounds (and seemingly bigger) in a small dog/puppy area. These big dogs were NOT old and NOT small, you could tell in the photos they were young and active. Small dog owners, I got lucky with a puppy with no internal injuries/broken bones and only bed rest, you may not be as lucky. It’s not worth the risk. If you still insist, have a couple thousand for your emergency vet visit or get pet insurance.

I would give this place a million stars if I could. Everyone is so kind & cares for your pets. Whenever Maple gets an upset stomach and needs a hundred different medications and food changes throughout the day, Love Unleashed is always accommodating, and they always have a close eye on my pup/keep me updated! Maple has a blast & always comes home super tired from running around all day. She’s scared of most places but gets super excited when we walk through the door here. I wouldn’t trust my pup with anyone else but Love Unleashed ❤️

My dogs absolutely love it here. We do regular daycare and occasional boarding. My shy boi Finn is coming out of his shell, connecting with staff and even playing with other dogs! My extrovert Crowley gets all of his energy out and has a blast. Facilities are great and staff is the best. It’s like taking my fur babies to a human daycare. They really care. I also like that they are open so late.

I started taking my dog here because they have the best hours, both locations are good, and it financially was the best option. The staff greet my dog every morning by name and always recognize me as my dog's mom when I pick him up. They post photos of the dogs every day and even celebrate dogs' birthdays with a few of their furry friends. Becca has been working there since I started bringing my dog and she's extremely communicative and transparent if or when things happen. While they don't have an outside area, my dog still comes home exhausted and a daycare hangover the next day.

Great service. They are pretty flexible on what you may need for your furry friend. Love that they post photos every day on Facebook of what the dogs are doing there.

Friendly staff, our pup always has a great time here! Make sure to order ice cream for your doggo 😁 …

Today was my pups first day. We had a meet & greet earlier this week, which she loved, and when we pulled up today she was dragging me towards the door and could not wait to go in! Staff was great, and very friendly. The Facebook pictures from throughout the day were so fun to see. They even made a welcome post for her with lots of pictures. They provided an update of her day when I picked her up, and wiped her down before they brought her out to me. She's exhausted from her big day, and I feel so comfortable bringing her back here when I work long shifts 🙂

Brought my dog in for a meet and greet - as soon as she entered back room - I heard some crashing noises and dogs growling and barking to the point it made me feel uncomfortable - apparently my dog wasn't good enough after 6 minutes of a meet and greet even though she's been to 2 different day cares in New York and one in St. Louis without any issues. It's too bad as I just moved to the neighborhood but it looks like the staff is pretty unreliable based on my first impressions so I guess it's probably best off not to bring your dog to this establishment

I know quite a few people who work between the 2 locations. First and foremost, the owner keeps all the tips. If you have ever tipped at either location, just know...the owner took them. On top of not getting tips, they have no insurance, and are paid the bare minimum. Most of the people are really compassionate, but there are also people who hit the dogs. So between the dismissal of employees concerns by the owner and general manager (who are 100% having an affair with one another) this place is an absolute hazard for your pets. Do not and I repeat, do NOT use this business for your babies care! Heed my warning. Your dogs are not receiving the care you think they are. Those little report cards you receive are absolutely made up and definitely have nothing to do with the actions of your dogs throughout the day.

I’ve been using All Paws 🐾 to kennel my two dogs when I go on vacation, they’ve always come home happy and in good condition…I would not hesitate to recommend them …

Very friendly and caring. Understood our needs. Even updated and sent pics of his first day in daycare. We will be back.

Great place to take your dog, very good staff and when I’m on vacation I get daily photos of my pet 😊 …

Can thank the staff enough for the amazing treatment my dogs receive. Love the pictures they send! So many pups having a blast!

As I was leaving the facility, I heard a worker in the outside pen screaming at the dogs to "shut up". He did this several times. If I hadn't had a medical appointment, I would had taken my dog right then. My animal was there for a "daycare" interview. Needless to say, I will NOT go back to this facility again. Side note: the owner is breaking military regulations by advertising his rank and the USAF insignia in postings for hiring

Me and my pup both had an amazing experience with All Paws. Staff were so kind and I felt that she was in good hands plus she had a blast while she was there and they took the time to update me on her first day. The pics provided were sent by them!

Freya seemed to enjoy the visit. She came home tired and ready to nap...a sign that she plated hard. Staff was great. Obviously enjoy the job and the dogs in their care.

My doodle tillie loves to go to daycare at all paws! Staff is always friendly and helpful coming out to the car to get her. They all seem to truly love pets! They even made the cutest valentine card with her paw print and sent home a goodie bag for her! Thank you for making my dogs life better!

When looking for a new daycare, I was worried about finding a place that my puppy liked. I can safely say that I was not disappointed in choosing All Paws Inn! My 5 month old puppy loves going to daycare during the week, and the staff is amazing! They are very understanding of the fact that Ryder is very young and still learning! One of my favorite things about All Paws Inn is the fact that they even come and pick up dogs from your car, which is very convenient if you are in a rush or wanting to make a quick and easy drop off! Occasionally, they even send us pupdates throughout the day! We would recommend All Paws Inn to anyone looking for a new doggy daycare! Another plus, our pup plays so hard at daycare that he falls asleep in the car before we can even pull out of the parking lot!

I would recommend this place to anyone. I was very nervous to leave my cat for as many days as I did and they made me feel good about doing it. A plus, they sent me pictures every day that she was there which eased my anxiety.

Absolutely love Arch City! It is the only place that our boy feels comfortable at for boarding. Shelly really took the time to get to know us and our dog prior to our reservation, she even played with him before introducing him to his living arrangement. Very responsive and clear communication. I'd Absolutely recommend Arch City!!

Shelly is the best. We were able to board our fear reactive towards humans pup here with no worries. Shelly did a meet and greet before hand to learn the ins and outs of our pup’s behavior and to build positive associations with the place and herself before we ever did drop off. I had such confidence knowing our dog was in great hands. She truly understands and loves reactive pups so well. Highly recommend.

We have used Arch City Dog Boarding twice now its been a terrific experience. Drop off and pick up is seamless, and the pups are always in a good mood when we pick them up. They are quick to respond. We have done both a weekend board and a week long board with no issues. The facility is secure, clean and professional. They do it by the book. We will continue to use Arch City Dog Boarding.

Outstanding dog boarding option! My pup gets a little anxious in bigger group settings, so I was really excited to see Arch City Dog Boarding offered a smaller and more individualized setting. I also love knowing my dog is getting time to exercise and socialize. I could tell right away after our meet and greet that Shelly is kind, thoughtful, and caring with all dogs. My dog loved her stay! Will absolutely use Arch City Dog Boarding again

My boyfriend and I just took a trip to Puerto Rico. This was our first time leaving our 5 month old puppy. Shelly was extremely professional and helpful! I felt very safe leaving my dog in her care for the week. We added the option to receive pictures daily. Shelly sent pictures of Maggie playing, so I knew she was having fun and being well cared for! I cannot thank her enough!

I’ve had my pup for 10 years and I’ve never boarded him because I was afraid he’d be uncomfortable because he can be reactive at times.. Arch City Boarding is everything and more I wanted for him. It’s small groups and you can tell Shelly really cares. He was instantly comfy there. I’m so thankful to have somewhere to take him where I know he’s okay and taken very good care of when I’m gone. 100/10 recommended 😊

I cannot say enough good things about Shelly and her team. We have boarded our dogs a few times now. They always come home happy and healthy. I would recommend them to anyone!

Shelly and the staff at Arch City are lifesavers. My pup Colonel has anxiety issues, and we previously has issues with another boarder, so we weren’t sure what to do. Arch City came highly recommended from our trainer at Stray Rescue, and we will never go anywhere else. Shelly and her team specialize in dogs with anxiety and nervousness and are a godsend. Arch City worked one-on-one with Colonel to help him get settled in and worked with me to settle my own nervous dog parent woes. Shelly is easy to communicate with, super transparent, and I know that heaven forbid anything were to happen, she would give my pup the same level of care and attention I would. Colonel loves Arch City too! The moment he sees the building, he knows exactly where he is and could not care less about saying bye- he loves Shelly and his friends at Arch City. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

Cannot recommend Arch City and Shelly enough. Very easy to communicate with, very flexible with pick up times/short notice boarding, etc. We have a special needs dog and I'm always confident they are in great hands with Shelly and her team.

What a wonderful place to board our fur baby! It's a homelike setting and Shelly took so much time getting to know our pup before booking that put me at ease. Lots of personalized attention is a dream!

As we are moving and it's our pups last day, we have to give happy tails the raving review they truly deserve. This place is his home away from home. I always run into employees who are possibly more excited than I am to see my own dog. They take the best care of the pups here and have the best service in town. I would gladly recommend happy tails to anyone and everyone around St Louis for doggy daycare and boarding. Thank you so much to everyone at happy tails for all the love you've shown Balto over the years. We will miss this place more than you could possibly know.

Always take the girls here. The groomers do a good job and the people all genuinely care about your pets. Only complaint I can say about “grooming” categorically is that the costs are just getting way too high . It’s not a Happy tails specific problem, it’s a widespread problem. I hope that costs come back down soon. I recommend a hat you check this place out and see if you appreciate the people as much as I do.

Happy Tails lost my dog for almost 48 hours. I have been a loyal customer for four years and what happened to me this past weekend is ridiculous. I brought both of my dogs (yellow lab and black lab) to Happy Tails on Friday, June 28, 2024 at 5:45am for boarding. I was scheduled to pick them up on Sunday, June 30, 2024 before 1pm. On Sunday at approximately 12:45pm, I arrived at Happy Tails to pick up my dogs. I paid for the boarding and then they brought, what they believed to be, both of my dogs out. They successfully brought my yellow lab out, however, they brought me the wrong black lab... I informed Happy Tails of the mistake and was told that they would get my dog and that this happens sometimes with German Shepherds and Labradors. After waiting for about 15 minutes, a worker came up appearing to be flustered and nervous. The worker and a few other workers had a meeting behind the gated area and when she walked out to the waiting room, I was informed that my dog was no longer at Happy Tails. Long story short, I dropped my dog off on Friday, June 28, 2024 at 5:45am, Happy Tails gave my dog to someone else on Friday at 2:30pm, and the person that took my dog on Friday at 2:30pm didn’t return my dog until Sunday, June 30, 2024 at 2:15pm. In other words, Happy Tails gave my dog away for 47.5 hours. I was told Happy Tails would give me a refund, however, as of the time of this posting, that has not happened. Regardless of whether or not they give me a refund, they gave my dog away. It is important to note that the person Happy Tails gave my dog to assured Happy Tails it was his dog, and he initially refused to return him when they informed him of their mistake... I will not be bringing my dogs back.

I trust Happy Tails and my 2 large babies love going here. They are a 24/7 business not only looking out for your pets but also you. If they don't pick up on the first call, please wait and call back it due to all the amazing customers they are happy to serve that sometimes you have to call back or walk in. 5/5 recommend!

I have been using Happy Tails strictly for grooming for years. I cannot say enough about the stellar customer service. The people are what make Happy Tails so great. If you are considering using Happy Tails for any of their services, i highly recommend you do.

If only I could find a hair salon where I could be transformed like the Happy Tails groomers changed my Fergus! Perfect Welsh Terrier grooming every time. Kim is amazing! See our before and after pics.

I can’t say enough about how amazing this place is. My dog has gotten groomed here twice now and every single time I am beyond happy with how she comes out. CHLOE is such a sweetheart and so talented, she spoke with me about what we want and I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her. My dog is usually shy but she came back like a new woman.

We left our dog with them perfectly healthy, he came back with a terrible limp on his back legs. Found out today he developed intervertebral disc disease and will be paralyzed the rest of his life. This develops from being dropped, or falling. We called Happy tails and their response is we’re not responsible for any injuries that happen during our care. BEWARE ABOUT LEAVING YOUR ANIMALS HERE!!!

My 8 month old puppy absolutely loves this place! We take her here 1-2 days a week, and she gets the socialization she needs. It is really nice to have someone else tire her out because she has boundless energy. They have also handled COVID safety measures very well.

Love everyone there! They have been so attentive to my puppy even tho we are not there every week!! The orientation was wonderful and my puppy loves everyone she has come in contact with! One day I left her for a little bit, been house hunting in the area and they were more than accommodating to take her for a short time. Thank you so much for the love you have shown to my big baby Daisey!!!

We’ve been taking our dog to Love Unleashed for about a year now and love it! There are a lot of personal touches such as birthday parties and report cards. The staff is so genuine and kind. Our golden retriever always comes home tired which is hard to do! They also post pictures on Facebook which we really appreciate when we she is boarded and we don’t see her for a couple of days. I always feel confident dropping her off that she will be safe and have lots of fun with the other dogs. Would definitely recommend!

My dogs and I love Love unleashed! The workers seem to really care about your dog. Both of mine are rescues that are very timid with new people, but the staff at LU have taken the time to get to know them and really helped them come out of their shell when there. I love that I can go on Facebook and look and pictures of their day at LU bc the staff post hundreds of pics of the pups each day! Great place.

We had our dog's 2nd Birthday party in their event rental space. Love Unleashed went above and beyond to make sure our pups had an amazing day! The room was very spacious and had cute decorations. I would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to rent out a space for dogs to play. We will be back, thank you very much Love Unleashed!!!

It's hard to overstate the quality of care that my dog gets here, either weekly daycare or the occasional boarding stay. I wouldn't take him anywhere else.

I have a very well socialized dog. We are members of several dog parks, never have issues. I wanted to start her at doggy daycare so I scheduled a meet and greet with Love Unleashed. They took her back for a total of 10 minutes before deeming her “aggressive” and denying her admission. They said she was pretty nervous to start, but yet they just kept adding more dogs to the room despite knowing she was feeling apprehensive, and then she snarled. It was her first time away from me, they just tossed her straight into a roomful of dogs without proper introduction, and jumped to conclusions in determining her temperament within that short 10 min window. What a joke. (In comparison, their top competitor does a 4 hour temperament assessment to ease the dogs in properly.) Happy to take my business elsewhere!

My dog is always welcomed and she loves to go! Prices are best in town. I wish they offered full grooming services.

I'm pretty happy with this daycare overall. They seem to really care about my pup.

Let me start first with the positive. Some of the staff at both locations were extremely nice and the hours are great for healthcare workers! The price was more than reasonable. But what I will say is if your dog has any issues (overwhelmed at dog parks etc) this is not the place to go. Some of the staff does not know how to handle dog behaviors or give proper breaks to dogs becoming overwhelmed. My dog would do great if she got there earlier however they would have up to 100 dogs in a small space (800sqft?). You could always hear barking and chaos from the back. This was very stressful to my dog. My main issue was the way I was treated on my final interaction with staff. The lady that day took all of 5 minutes from me dropping my dog off for boarding as I was leaving town to call me and state my dog was no longer welcomed at their facility. But don't worry they offered to keep her crated for FOUR DAYS for the same price... nice try. We went to a much nicer facility where my dog had the treatment and playtime she deserved. She was no longer in a crowded gym with 100 dogs at a time ready to brawl it out. Based off this last interaction I would not recommend Love Unleashed. Unfortunately for traveling HCW they are the ONLY dog daycare in STL with hours outside of 7-7.

They take such good care of our dog Sophie, I will not take her any where else. I love the staff and how well they handle everything. Highly recommend. They also have packs you can buy that make boarding super affordable. :)

Love Unleashed is absolutely amazing! My pups now jump at the words "You wanna go to daycare?". Love Unleashed has a wonderful staff who goes above and beyond to ensure my dogs are getting the special attention they deserve! They put pictures up on Facebook of your dog while they are at daycare so you can see how they are doing while you are at work! They also host and are involved with multiple events which they always invite us to! I also just recently boarded my pup with them. Because of their such amazing daycare services, I trusted them with watching my dog for the weekend. They only give their attention to their boarding dogs during the weekend, and they post pictures of them having a great time throughout their stay! It was easy to see that my puppy was having so much fun. They are so personable, and always greet my pups and I by name. I have 110% trust that when I drop my dogs off for the day that they will not only be cared for, but will also have the times of their lives. I highly recommend any of their services to anyone!

I think my little tucker was more happy than I was after his grooming. When I first got my poodle miniature he was in bad shape. I bought some puppy grooming supplies to try to clean him up. But even with the aftermath Bar K did a good job. Dispute all the bad reviews I used to work here so I know how they handle and treat our puppy kiddos. Nothing can go wrong when it comes to Bar K. I would pick them over Pet Smart any Day.

Our dog was a pandemic pup, and a 5-year-old when we rescued her from a shelter, so she’s not very socialized. They warned us that she did not like going to the vet or the groomer. But from the first time we took her to get groomed at Kennelwood at Bar K, she was fine, apart from some very minor grumbling. They treat her well and I think she knows she’s being cared for. Big paws up from us!

We took our dog here to get trained, trying to understand the root cause of his jumping issues and Brittany was phenomenal! She was able to diagnose and give us tools in order to help train our dog. Definitely recommend.

**UPDATE: Manager called to discuss my concerns about this appointment and were very attentive to the concerns! - Customer Service is noted and we will be back to give them another grooming try in the future!* :-) Recently took our dog to get groomed, and the check in was smooth and we discussed preferences, I explained how he has knots on the fur under his belly and legs...upon getting my dog picked up, we were not impressed. The fur on his legs was barely clipped nor brushed, along with the knots were still under his belly. I had to cut them.out and brush him when getting home. The dog cut overall just looked incomplete and/or rushed.

We were in STL for the day and needed doggie day care. Bar K was close to our destination, looked good online and convenient, so we took our dog. It's GREAT! Quick to check in, great staff, Olive seemed very happy. And, they have a bar/restaurant attached with a bigger dog park, that we had a beer in after our day. Highly recommend

Bar K is FABULOUS!!! Great concept and fulfilled to the limit! Can’t think of anything they didn’t address! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, this place! Great for dogs and their people! My Dog belongs to the Country Club and I get to go too! Soooo much fun! 💥❤️👍🏻💥 …

I have brought my dog to play several times! Staff is always friendly and attentive. I brought her for her first professional grooming today and Ky’ara did a fantastic job. We will be back for maintenance brushes and future grooming. Thanks a million Ky’ara!

We needed a good place for a day camp to keep our boy while we did some exploring. Came across Stay! And gave them a call 15 mins out. They needed his vaccination records and kept him FOR FREE the first time to see if it was a good fit. When ever in the area we will definitely be back. They looked after him well! Thank you!

This review is of their obedience training. While on the surface it may appear our dog learned some skills. It became apparent in the last week or 2 of her training something happened. Stella Blue went from a happy go lucky pup to an anxious and scared pup. Which after hundreds of dollars spent with behavior specialists, we will spend hundred if not thousands more with a DVACB doctor. Likley will cost more than the almost $2k we spent on training and unintentionally breaking her. :(. So buyer be ware. Their training isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

I am very pleased with the service I was provided on my first visit. They let me tour the facility and showed me where my pup would be hanging out during the day while I toured the city when passing through. Highly recommend! We even got a little report card at the end describing my pups day!
