PNR Lemon has been a game changer for us! I recently relocated and my pup has some separation anxiety that made the move from a single family home to a condo a challenge (and not very pleasant for our neighbors.) They got us in quickly, and from day one, I’ve watched Lucy’s nerves essentially disappear and she is excited every day she goes! She seems to look forward to it. It’s only been a week and they already recognize her by name and have personalized her adventures. She is regularly featured on their social media which I love as we have never done daycare before and I was highly nervous and resistant to the idea for a while of trusting anyone with my baby. I give them my highest recommendation! Best I’ve ever experienced!

What started off as a good experience turned very bad very quickly and I hear it from many other dog owners that take their dog here. My dog gets no exercise when he's here. I just got off the phone and he's been sitting in a crate for 4+ hours since I dropped him off. This isn't a one time occurrence, he wears a Fi collar and gets relatively no steps at this location. There's many other MUCH BETTER options to take your dog that actually have cameras. Don't get me wrong, the people are very nice but for dogs, don't waste your money. Poor business by what should be a very good experience. If I could give zero stars I would.

I am giving 5 stars with a caveat. Currently, you can not your or enter the facility due to the pandemic. I understand this and will amend after I can tour ( I all positive I won't have too, though) …

If I could give this place zero stars I would. This place completely ruined a vacation of mine by refusing to take my dog without providing requirements to me in advance. Gave them all documentation days in advance, spoke to an associate as well. Totally ridiculous and a total waste of time. Go somewhere else.
