I am not one for writing reviews, however. the Atlantic City Pet Hotel took such amazing care of my dog I had to take the time to write one. It was a Holiday weekend and my family wanted to meet in Atlantic City for a Holiday dinner. With everyone spread out and my son unable to leave Princeton University for the weekend, it was the perfect solution for everyone to get together. My problem was that there was not anyone available to care for our 5th child. The Hotels don't allow dogs, and our dog has never been kenneled. I did call a pet sitter who comes 3 times a day to walk and feed, but I felt terrible leaving him home alone 24 hours a day. I made calls to friends who have dogs and they recommended that I take my dog to the Atlantic City Pet Hotel, so that we could travel both ways with him, place him where he would be pampered day and night, and we could see him during the day. It was a sold out weekend, yet the pet hotel still treated our little boy like royalty, and made him feel welcome. They gave him a nice sized individual room with a freshly cleaned bed and blanket, bottled water served in a dish fresh from the dishwasher. While we were there, we observed a few different people individually walking each dog. We asked for a complete inspection tour of the facility upon arrival, and they were more than happy to. I observed the grooming room, where there was someone giving each dog a daily brushing, cleaning each dogs eyes, and making sure each dog got a bow or bandana. I visited during the rain and they were walking each dog with a large golf umbrella, and someone was drying and cleaning their wet paws upon return. I was told that the dogs that refused to go out in the rain went to the Pet Hotel block long yard, that was covered to prevent the dogs from getting wet. I was told that each dog was escorted and stayed with until they finished their business. In the back area , I observed staff alternating large dogs for playtime. In the middle I saw staff playing with small dogs. In the front reception area was the owner holding a king Cavalier, and a kennel Assistant holding and playing with a small long haired dog. They told me that the parents of the two dogs they were playing with upfront, did not want them playing with other dogs, so the staff plays with them. My dog was happy when we visited, but did not want to leave. They really did treat him as if he was their own. I had a wonderful family weekend and my dog made new friends ,and found a home away from home. I am a Long Island CPA and have very limited travel time. I already made reservations at the AC Pet Hotel when we go on our Christmas/New Years Florida vacation and Caribbean Cruise. and for our 10 day Caribbean Vacation after tax season. I feel confident knowing the owners live on the premises, in a safe, area with cameras on the dogs 24 hrs a day. You have to visit to see what a happy loving facility the Atlantic City Pet Hotel offers. I hope they update their web sight to show what a wonderful facility they have and list all the special services your pet will receive during their stay. Please feel free to contact with any questions. As a CPA, I thrive on repeat and referred business and I am sure this facilty does as well.
Pros: My pet was treated royally and was provided with everything
Cons: I have to drive all the way to AC when I go on vacation.
