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!
We have had a great experience at this new location! The facility is great and the trainers offer amazing feedback on our pup. They were even able to accommodate a last minute boarding request when our daughter was hospitalized and sent her a ‘get well soon’ card - it was so thoughtful!
Abby groomed my 12 year old Border Collie Timbre and I couldn't be more pleased with how he came out! She was sensitive to the fact he is older and has hip/joint issues and took her time to ensure his comfort was at the forefront of the whole process. The finished product is absolutely the best and exactly what I asked for. I could not more highly recommend someone to take care of your pup.
For anyone looking for a doggy daycare and/or boarding facility, I highly recommend Camp bow wow in Crestwood! I am impressed with how thorough they are with orientation, dog introductions, tours and how clean they keep their space. I know it’s only a month old, but I can tell they stay on top of cleanliness. More than anything I love that we have access to live video of our pups to see how they are doing throughout the day! I’ve been hesitant for years to take my dogs to a daycare because so many of them feel too crowded in a small space, but this facility has a good amount of space for a crowd of bigs dogs! They offer enrichment, training, baths, and grooming as well! I can tell the staff love spending time with the dogs. I’ll definitely continue taking my two fur babies there 🐾🐾 Tomorrow is their open house and pictures with santa! I highly recommend neighbors to check it out!
Love this place. My two younger dogs enjoy daycamp here multiple times a week. They always come home with the energy burned off and ready for dinner and cuddles. I also have used Abigail the groomer for my older border collie. She was so patient and kind and gentle with him. I can't imagine taking him anywhere else. The haircut also turned out exactly as requested!
My dog attends Camp Bow Wow Crestwood regularly and loves it. The staff are amazing and very knowledgeable. She comes home excited and exhausted. I can no longer say the word “camp” without her getting excited and looking for her lead.
I recently had a chance to check out the new Camp Bow Wow in Crestwood. It looked amazing and smelled better than other boarding places I have been to. I love the fact that my kids will spend most of the day not in kennels. I am always looking for something better for my kids. This will be my new go to when I need to board.
Have used Camp Bow Wow in several locations where we have lived. This new location is among the best we have experienced. Other dog daycare facilities simply don’t compare to Camp Bow Wow and this one is best in class! Thank you for taking such good care on our pups!
My dog drags me to the door, she loves CAMP BOW WOW In Crestwood so clean staff is always friendly. When we walk into the door she forgets I exist. Cameras are great to see her during the day. Just a great place.
The only place I will ever bring my dog for day care and boarding. Extremely trustworthy staff and immaculate facility! So happy this place came to town!!!
Lobby was clean, staff was nice, they really love dogs and I felt comfortable leaving my dogs there after the evaluation process
Beth is an awesome trainer. So much so, she trained my twins over 14 years ago and, sadly, I lost one of them 14 months ago. I decided it was time to add to our family when a little bitty wild doxie needed a home about 6 weeks ago. In came Beth and first off, Jak immediately recognized her after all these years!! Jina loves Beth and has learned so much from her in such a short amount of time! Of course, she needs reminders but she has only been at this for 5 weeks. My neighbors are so impressed that my 7 pound wiener dog walks so nicely and rarely steps out of line, she doesn't bark at people or other dogs (even if they bark at her) and very rarely even glances over at them! I am a relaxed, proud dog mom and have Linda come walk her while I'm at work because Linda is "trained" by Beth on what Jina has been taught so Linda can reinforce those commands! Jina looks forward to both of their visits and that is so comforting! Do yourself and your pet a huge favor and hire Critter Sitters!
My husband and I have been using Critter Sitters for years, and have used the same sitter; Fran. In a nutshell, she is amazing! Fran always goes above and beyond her duties to take great care of our animals, and the house. Our oldest dog has arthritis, and every time we come home, he feels better than before we left! Fran takes the time to massage his legs, which works miracles! I highly recommend using Critter Sitters service, and Fran as a pet sitter! :)
We are new to St. Louis and recently went away for three days. This was the first time that we have used an in-home pet sitter, but with one of our dogs being senior with bad hips we decided it was a better alternative to a kennel. The service exceeded our expectations. Our sitter, Fran, was terrific, took care of both dogs wonderfully, and even sent text-message updates--including some great photos of the dogs at play! I would and will recommend Critter Sitters to anyone in St. Louis looking for a less-stress mode of pet sitting.
I have been using Critter Sitters for close to 20 years, I can't say enough good things about them, reliable, trust worthy, etc.
