Review content:
I live in the Atlantic City area, and I vacation all the time to visit my children.I have two dogs and a cat...A bully breed, a shih-tzu, and a cat.My cat only gets alone with the shih-tzu, and my bigger dog does not get along with animals in GENERAL.When i called, I spoke to a woman named Stephanie, who told me that anytime from 10 am to 4 i could come check out the place.I was hesitant because of the reviews, but indeed i checked it out.Heads up to anybody reading this...I'm going to be realistic.When i went to inspect the place,yes, there was a VERY SLIGHT odor, and when i walked in there was a young woman on her hands and knees scrubbing down the floor, the playpen that the smaller dogs can stay in, and the side of the counter.ANY kennel you go to, there's going to be an odor.Dogs pee,they make bowel movements.They're DOGS.I showed up unexpectantly and when i saw this girl on the floor cleaning,the place just showed to me that its the opposite of what everyone claims.When i was taken in the back,the grooming area seemed a little cramped, but i was worried about my animals being boarded in cages, and together.Scott informed me that upstairs is where my cat would stay, and my two dogs could be separated in to different areas.i was completely SHOCKED to look through the window to the cage room.there WAS no cages! not to mention there was yet ANOTHER staff member sitting on the floor playing with a couple of dogs!yes, i will repeat, the place had a slight odor, but if you walk into a kennel that smells like roses EVERY SINGLE TIME...theres something fishy going on.the pricing was VERY reasonable.i knew that my pitbull would be played with one on one and my shih-tzu would play with the owners malteses during the day.There is always somebody upstairs to snuggle with my baby kitty and let him know he's loved.and the greatest thing was, all of my pets BEDS were washed! that shocked me!There was also a backyard with a roof that i saw through the security cameras at the check in desk...my bigger dog was able to do her business out there since shes a runner when it comes to being handled on the leash.\r

If you want to board your dog at a place where yes, the place smells like perfection everytime you step in, only to have your dog stuffed into a cage, have no play time (or pay extra), and hardly go out...then go to the kennel twenty minutes from Atlantic City.They wanted to charge me extra money to play with my cat...RIDICULOUS!\r
Atlantic City Pet Hotel and grooming had people that were very sincere, truthful, honest, and were very down to earth.I now bring them every couple of months just for day care! its amazing...\r
