What a fantastic experience. We went on a 2 week trip, so were away from our girls for along time. From the first initial meeting to picking the girls up. It was nothing short of great. You can tell they really care about your pets. Will definitely go back again in the future.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful they took care of my dog. My dog has epilepsy and needs her medicine 3 times a day and requires a little more attention. My dog actually slept in their house and they kept her calm and she was so well treated. I will be using them whenever I have to go anywhere. Wonderful place. Donna burke

Great for boarding highly aggressive dogs or dogs with anxiety. It is so difficult to find good kennels that specialize in aggressive breeds. We needed to find a kennel last minute for our family trip and the owners helped take care of our dog who does not do well outside of family members. They have excellent facilities and took excellent care of her. Some people might be offended by the owners' strong and frank personality but I was honestly looking for a trainer that knows what they are doing and is confident beccause you need a personality like that to take good care of aggressive dogs. This is our go to boarding spot now!

Very impressed by Hidden Valley Kennels. I have a 3 year old pit bull mix. My dog does not like anyone. I was nervous about leaving her alone. The woman who owns this kennel really knows dogs and has a love for animals in general. Highly recommend this kennel.

I spoke to Don (one of the owners) a couple times when I was looking for a good kennel. His condescending, harsh attitude, rude tone and arrogance made me quickly mark this place off the list. There are other clean, safe kennels around that actually have friendly, caring people working there. I can't recommend doing business with a person like that.

I highly recommend hidden valley kennels. I have been boarding my 2 labs here for 3 years now and Don and Mary are amazing with them. They treat me and my dogs like family. It’s great knowing my dogs are in good hands when I need to board them.

I called about price and left a message. Got a call back a few hours later and got lectured on my message. Guy was extremely rude and unprofessional. I was unable to go for a meet and greet during normal hours and asked about weekends because I work full time. He got rude gave me his life history and then told me my dog would never be allowed to stay the re. Showed a very bad attitude and acted like I was a bad person for not wanting to miss work and blames all his reasons on COVID. I would never allow my dog to stay at a place where injuries are being reported and other reviews mentioning the same experience with a bad attitude. If I could give this place a negative star I would.

Nice place with friendly people. Lovely, wooded setting. Don't rely on your GPS to find it. It is on a dead end road and our GPS tried to bring us in the back way. ?

Don & Mary Elaine are nothing short of miracle workers! After some research I reached out to them to inquire about the training program. After speaking with Don I brought my very, very stubborn 4 y/o French Bulldog for an overnight evaluation. When I picked him up, both Don & Mary Elaine spent a tremendous amount of time with me listening to my areas of concern. Together they have a plethora of experience in both behavioral training and vet tech knowledge. They developed a plan for Ramsay to correct some problematic behaviors of immediate concern such as jumping on others, selective hearing of commands, and pulling on the leash. It must be said that I wasn't successful on my own and Ramsay was essentially untrained and wild. I cannot say enough complimentary things about them! Ramsay has many health problems and allergies. Mary Elaine took amazing care of him during his stay. When I returned to retrieve my guy I could not believe I was seeing the same dog in action! Don was able to train Rams to walk without pulling, listen to commands, and minimize jumping on others. My dog was transformed! Don spent time with me practicing how to continue working with Rams at home to continue to strengthen and reinforce the foundation that had been established. They both made themselves available for follow up questions and concerns I may need advice on. They have gone above and beyond providing exceptional service to both my dog and myself. I highly and strongly recommend Hidden Valley Kennels to anyone looking into training programs. I am looking forward to boarding both of my furbabies this week. I trust them implicitly with my dogs. Again, I cannot say enough laudable things about Don, Mary Elaine and Hidden Valley Kennels!

Just picked up my chocolate lab from a training session with Don. Could not be happier with the progress. He is like a new dog much easier to handle and actually listening . Thank you

Owner did not seem friendly or even wanting the business over the phone. Won’t be considering this place for ANYTHING just based off his terrible attitude. Very unprofessional.
