We consider Pampered Pet Resort to be our pets’ 2nd home. We have been customers for longer than I can remember - at least 10 years. Our dog LOVES being boarded here - she is easily frightened by new people and places but never here! Our cat used to resist getting in his carrier but now walks right in, knowing where he is headed. The few times they have gotten sick, we have been reimbursed for vet costs - quickly and agreeably. We appreciate this small business and feel so fortunate that we found them!
Everyone at the Pampered Pet Resort is so kind! They treated my pup as if he was their own pet. Every morning when I would drop him off for daycare he would run towards the back tail wagging and ready for a fun day of play. The entire team is always so nice and makes sure to tell you how your pups day was at pick up. I recommend the Pampered Pet to anyone looking to board their fur baby or looking for a good, safe daycare option. They are careful to make sure and pair dogs together based on size and behavior. Thank you Stephanie and the team for taking such good care of my Graham! If I am ever living in the Birmingham area again we will for sure be back.
I have had very good experiences with Pampered Pets! I appreciate their good care.
Pampered Pet Resort is THE best place for the care of our dogs! No one has ever done it better! Our dogs actually get excited when we pull up in the parking lot! The staff is super friendly and really care for all the “guests” like they were their own! This is the best place I have ever found for boarding our dogs- both short and long time!
My doggo gets great care every time we go out of town. Make sure your pet's records are up to date! Prices are reasoable.
This place is absolutely amazing and I will never leave my sweet kitty anywhere else to board him! I am a nervous cat mom and was very unsure when I dropped him off for the first time earlier this week. They took such good care of my sweet boy! My husband even received pictures of him during his exercise time. The staff is super friendly and you can tell they are all animal lovers! The cost is very affordable as well. Highly recommend!!
What are you looking for in a pet sitter? Well, I am looking at my fur babies reaction when I check them in as well as after I've picked them up. I have 1 cat & 1 nervous nelly dog. So while together, they were separated and apart during their stay. When I dropped off, they were met with good, chill & loving vibes. It was like that 1st time at your child's DayCare when you realized the kid was happy and you need not worry anymore. This was that same vibe. And now I no longer worry when they need to be boarded. Thank You Ladies!
My dog Henry gets so excited when we’re pulling up in the parking lot and comes back so happy every time I board him here. That’s how you know the staff is the best! It’s such a relief knowing he has a place like Pampered Pet where he’s in the best hands and always has fun. The few times I’ve done daycare he’s come back happy and pretty exhausted as well. I can’t recommend highly enough - even if you live in Birmingham city limits it’s worth the ~20 minute drive to bring your pup here.
Stephanie and her staff are fantastic. She cares for every dog like they are her own. The facility is super clean and very well organized. They have both an indoor and outdoor play area so your dog doesn't have to just sit in a kennel all day. I have used this service several times and always very pleased. One of the best things is they will give you a tour of their facility ANYTIME. You don't have to schedule an appointment to see this wonderful place. I drive from across town to use PPR because when I drop my dog off then I don't have to stress about her being taken care of properly. Peace of mind is priceless.
I am surprised to see that some reviewers have said that the staff is rude, because I have always had good interactions with them! They are always courteous to my family. If I have to leave a message, they are very good about calling me back to schedule my appointment. My dog has been going here for YEARS while we are on vacation. Once my dog needed veterinary care, and the resort contacted the vet, took him, and gave him all the extra attention he needed while we were out of town. My dog always seems happy and well cared for, so we will continuing to use the Pampered Pet for life.
Robin has been taking care of mine and my family's animals for over 10+ years and will continue on for many many more! We could not ask for any better of a dog sitter! Not only does Robin take care of our animals, but she has also given my family a true friendship and a person we can always count on and trust no matter what with our four legged fur babies! Everyone wants to leave their companions with someone they can trust and Robin has never disappointed! We always leave knowing our animals are being WELL taken care of! Every time my family and I leave to go out of town our dogs start barking and getting excited because they already know they are about to go to Robin's and they absolutely love it! Not only has she taken care of our dogs, but she has also came over to our house multiple times and fed our cat while out of town, she has tended to my outside dogs, and she has even came over and helped us with stray animals! This woman is so selfless towards animals and everyone she knows. Always willing to be flexible and work with you no matter what. We will never take our dogs to another vet to stay over night while we are out of town! Robin will always be our go-to and you should too!!!!
We love Robin! My mom's dog Princeton has been staying with Robin for years, since we found Kritter Care he has never been left with anyone else. He loves Robin's and gets so excited when we pull in the driveway. There is nothing like knowing that your four legged baby is well loved while you are away. The home environment and care that Robin shows to each animal in her care is wonderful.
My dog loves coming to Kritters Home Pet Care and begins "singing" blocks away when he realizes where we are headed. He has the opportunity to play both inside and outside in safe, supervised areas. He enjoys interacting with other dogs, but he gets lots of personal attention too. I feel that my dog is loved and cared for with individual attention that isn't possible in larger group settings. So happy that a friend introduced me to Robbin and this great home based pet care. Whether he is there for daycare or boarding, I feel confident that he will well taken care of and that Robbin understands and appreciates his unique personality.
We absolutely love Miss Robbin!!! Anytime I say “Go to Miss Robbins?” to my Basset Hound Earl he tilts his head and gets so excited. He is always greeted by all his friends at the gate and is worn out when we get home. Robbin adores all the dogs that come to daycare or to board as if they were her own. She has truly made her home into a dog heaven. I wouldn’t take Earl anywhere else!
We have been loyal customers for almost nine years. This home based pet care service provides our dog with an open and comfortable atmosphere. Robin and her staff know his personality and needs and can interact with him in a more natural setting that is second only to our own home. When we drop him off he runs in willingly and when he leaves he is happy and calm. This was not the case the few times we used kennel based services. For a warm and personal place to entrust the care our beloved pet, there's nothing that compares
Robbin is wonderful! She really loves dogs and treats her daycare doggies and boarders as her own. I took my dog Simba to her 3 to 4 days a week for over two years, until sadly he passed away last month. He always was excited to get there and I felt good knowing he was getting to play outside with his buddies. Robbin spends a lot of time outside with them too and didn't have designated time of day for outside play. If the weather permitted the dogs are outside most of the day. She has a large fenced in property with a large dog house. She is very flexible on pick up and drop off times too, which is very convenient. I never worried about my dog when he was with Robbin. I got married out of town last summer and really wanted Simba to be in the wedding but I really didn't have anyone who would be able to be in charge of him, and Robbin offered to do it! I was boarding Simba with her for the wedding and honeymoon, and she graciously took time out of her weekend to drive to Gadsden with Simba so he could be there and part of my wedding! I don't think anyone else would have offered to do that! She is truly a sweet and caring person and she loves dogs.
Robbin has been sitting for my dogs and cats for 14 years and I have been extremely happy with her! I used to have to go out of town twice a month and she kept my dogs at her house and came to my house to check on my cats. Now it's not as often but I still use her when I'm out of town. She is always reliable and she truly loves the animals. She pets them and plays with them and gives them special treats. She is also much more flexible than a vet regarding drop off and pick up times which helps me a lot and saves me from paying for extra days. And at her house they have the run of the yard and house and are not in a cage the whole time like at the vet. And there is no extra charge for "play time"! I would highly recommend her.
I will only use this sitting service. I have known Robbin for years and completely trust her with my animals. She has done house sitting, boarding, mid-day walks and vacation sitting without any problems, as well as given meds without any extra charges. Robbin has never turned me down, even with I've called at the last minute; and she didn't charge me extra! I have referred at least four friends and all have reported that they have been happy. Highly recommended!
Kritters Home Pet Care is the second home for my labs. They get excited when they know they are going and immediately jump in the van. We have often received pictures of our babies playing with toys and having fun while there. I have boarded dogs in several places in the past, but will never take them anywhere else but here, they are treated like family <3
Robin is such a natural with dogs. She treats my dog like one of her own and he absolutely loves going to daycare. I am so thankful I found her!! Would absolutely recommend her to anyone.
Our pup, Scout, loves going to Humphrey’s! She runs to the door when we tell her she’s going to “school” that day. She always comes home tired & clean, which we really appreciate. We’ve used Humphrey’s for daycare, boarding, & grooming for several years and are always happy with the service. We said goodbye to our 13 year old Cockalier earlier this year, but truly can’t thank the staff at Humphrey’s enough for being so good to him. Thank you for loving our pups like your own!
Humphrey’s Dog Resort has been Fish’s second home for over two years and they’ve loved him like their own from day one. Whether it's accommodating him with boarding, splash pad parties, or posting memes of him on their instagram, they've always gone above and beyond making things fun. Their hours are perfect for nurses, and it's clear the staff genuinely love their jobs and the animals in their care. Honestly, I would die for Humphrey’s, and I’m pretty sure Fish would trade me for them any day!
They love your pets as much as you do and have a great sense of humor. I’ve been taking my dogs there since the day they opened and will never go anywhere else. All the activities, art, and pictures they do are so fun (and funny), and I love hanging them on my fridge. Humphrey’s is the best in town!
Humphrey's has been a life-saver for our sweet Winnie. We moved from a house with a big backyard to a smaller place downtown with no yard. Winnie did not adjust well. She became aggressive with other dogs and we couldn't take her out in public without worrying about her behavior. Since she has been going to Humphrey's her behavior has changed for the better! I can take her out to public places and she is well-behaved! The staff at Humphrey's is amazing! I can't single out just one staff member because every single one I have spoken with knows my dog and loves her. They truly know what they are doing and they treat each animal with love and positive reinforcement. I highly recommend Humphrey's Dog Resort!!
Our pups LOVE Humphrey's! We have one introvert and one extrovert pup and the Humphrey's team always find a way to meet both of their needs. We use them for daycare and boarding. The enhancement daycare has done wonders for our introvert and their boarding room service options are premium and make me feel confident they will get the love like they would at home :)
I’ve been bringing my big guy Bingley to Humphrey’s for more than 2 years. They take wonderful care of my guy, including adapting to his some of his idiosyncrasies. He comes home at night completely wiped out from a long day of playing. I never have to worry when I board him because everyone is responsive and adaptable. They also do a wonderful job when he gets bathed and groomed into his handsome self. I highly recommend Humphrey’s.
This is the BEST grooming and daycare service ever! My puppy is very shy but when we picked her up from daycare, she was playful and in a VERY good mood. It's like we have a completely different dog! And she looks GORGEOUS! Thank you Humphreys! This is her new grooming spot from NOW ON!
We absolutely love Humphrey’s for day care. The team is extremely friendly and the drop off/pick up is super easy. I appreciate that you can book individual days as needed an not need to commit to specific days. Buying packages is also very easy. Everything is super clean and we love checking social media for photos of our pup. Most importantly, he gets very excited as we pull up and can’t wait to go in. He’s tuckered out when we get him home and is ready for bed. It’s safe to say Humphrey’s is our pups happy place.
Our dog Emmy loves Humphrey’s! They take great care of her, the facilities are clean, and I can tell they truly love the dogs that visit. Would definitely recommend.
We love Humphrey’s. Our 2-year-old dog has been going since his puppy days for play days, and his takes his older sister (age 8) and brother (age 14) with him to spend the night(s) whenever their humans go out of town and the dogs can’t go too. All 3 of them love Humphrey’s, and the staff does a great job of taking care of them and meeting all of their needs, including medicine.
