A WORD FROM OUR CLIENTS . . .
Big shout out to Dog Paws Boarding Resort LLC. on Edgewood Road. This is Lucky and Spooks second visit there. The first was just after the Derecho when we were juggling our move/closing on our home and without a place to live for a long weekend. Kelley graciously took them in until we were officially moved and I am certain she was struggling with her own storm challenges at the time. If you are needing to board your pets, Kelley has done a fantastic job of completely renovating an old corn crib with comfortable and suites. Thank you Dog Paws “Kelley”!!!

We just started sending our little puppy to PLAY with Kelley. Miss Ella loved all the praise, love and attention she got while we were at work. She came home tired and wanted to snuggle all night. I also feel like she learned some more manners even in one day with Kelley. Kelley is amazing with the animals and they all love her (she pays them in treats and attention so it’s kind of cheating - ha ha!)! Send your pup to PLAY or board while you are out of town. You won’t be disappointed!

Our tour of Dog Paws Boarding Resort was amazing, our dog Hank immediately felt at home & Kelley treats your pet like her own. The place is immaculate & beautifully remolded.

Kelley has been a life saver for us! we were displaced out of our house for awhile into a tiny hotel room on very short notice. Even though Dog Paws had also gotten damage and wasn't fully open, she welcomed our Great Dane with open arms and has loved on her like her own. She helps us out when our schedules get funky and she even taught Reece to open doors! (ha! jk) I would definitely recommend Dog Paws to anyone and everyone with a fur baby, even if its just for a few hours, your kid will sleep like a baby when they get home!!

This is a great place to have your pets treated with TLC. Kelley did an awesome job of caring for our two puppies. She helped maintain our training goals, bathed them and trimmed their nails. The building the pets stay in is VERY clean. We were quite happy with our experience.

This is an amazing Resort for your 4-legged children!! After the Derecho, I reached out on Facebook to get help boarding our 125 lb. Mastiff, Bubba. Kelley responded immediately and took him in right away, without hesitation. She kept him safe all week and treated him as her own, throughout, updating us daily with photos and stories about his stay. She was amazing and Dog Paws will be Bubba's new home away from home from now on!! Thank you so much, Kelley!!

If you are looking for someone who understands that your dog/cat is a member of your family and not just a pet, look no further than Kelley at Dog Paws Boarding! There are no cheap, chemical infused treats at Dog Paws. No, Kelley would never feed that to a family member. Instead she bakes homemade treats for your furry friends to enjoy. Is your four legged child a little unruly? Mine are NUTS! With her gentle approach, Kelley had my bonker babies calmed and eating out of her hand in minutes! Kelley loves your dogs as her own, and there is literally no one else I would trust to keep my babies safe when I can't be there with them. I can't possibly recommend Dog Paws enough!

I am so excited for Dog Paws to open! Kelley is an animal lover and advocate! I know she will take amazing care of my pets and they will love to stay with their "Aunt Kelley!"
- Ray (Dog mom of 1 and 2 cats), May 2020
Kelley is my 'go-to' dog mom for advice! I call her with any questions about my fur babies! She has been working with dogs and cats since she was 16! She knows her stuff!
- Sara (Dog Mom of 2), April 2020
Kelley and her Great Dane Lucy were students in my class last month and Kelley did a great job coaching Lucy. Lucy can be very shy at times but Kelley gently and patiently guided her through all her training. Kelley is a caring and dedicated dog owner. Lucy is fortunate to have Kelley in her life!
- Gary (Trainer), February 2020
Kelley is amazing with dogs and very knowledgeable! I would trust her with my fur babies any day!
- Shelby (Dog Mom of 3), February 2020
Kelley's passion & dedication for being a responsible dog owner is very evident in her conscientious care of her pack. Kelley has excellent leadership & communication skills which is important in maintaining a healthy environment which is consistent with someone who understands pack behavior. Her desire to understand dog behavior & her calm demeanor is beneficial. Her training background is evident when you visually get the opportunity to watch her skills at work.
