Sterling Meadows is the perfect place for our pup, Mika. In the past, she didnt do well at other boarding facilities and refused to eat. When we took her to Sterling Meadows, the staff was professional, friendly, and listened as I explained that Mika has a very hard time adjusting when we leave her at boarding facilities. They explained that they'd keep me informed if any issues arose. After a few days, a staff member called me and said that Mika was adjusting well, however she wasn't eating all of her food. They asked if I'd be ok if they sat with her and hand fed her...which I really appreciated. After that, Mika grew very comfortable with the staff and had no issues eating. Everyday we received pictures of Mika playing, which definitely allowed us to relax more while on vacation. We asked to have Mika bathed prior to picking her up. When we picked her up, I had never seen her fur so white and clean, and nearly all of her shedding undercoat was gone! It was the best bath/grooming she'd ever had! I just can't say enough good things about the friendly, attentive staff and the quality of care they provide for our furry friends. We'll be taking Mika to Sterling Meadows from now on!

These folks are great. It was our first time boarding our two dogs. They made the experience easy and pleasurable.Everyone we interacted with was friendly and professional. We will definitely be bringing our dogs back. Highly recommend.

First experience with Sterling Meadows this year after living in the area all my life, I've used several other boarding facilities and this one by far exceeds my expectations and provides wonderful care without the additional charges if you want your dog to be played with or out of its kennel while being boarded. I have 3 dogs, 1 is difficult and they were able to handle him without any problems. I also had them bathed after boarding, again excellent job with the grooming. I will be taking my dogs here for boarding and grooming from here on out.

Sterling Meadows is the best kennel my dog has experienced. It has water pads and a big opening for the dogs to play. The staff is and always have been very nice. Picture was taken by one of the staff.

I don't know what they did but the cat came back to me calmer thanks before! I ? They're a lifesaver for cats too spastic to be left home alone.

Needed to board my 7 month old puppy and they were one of the few places able to take her in, not spayed. They kept me updated with texts and pics on how she was doing throughout her stay.

I picked up my 5 year old husky lab mix from being boarded for a few days on July 7 and she was sick with explosive diarrhea, not eating normally, and vomiting blood. We took her to an er vet who did a urine and fecal test and thought she was stressed from being boarded. She has been boarded in other states and has never been stressed from being boarded. He gave her amoxicillin and said when I boarded her again she should not play with the other dogs. The medicine seemed to help and she was perking up. I had a trip I could not cancel so I regrettably took her back with her medicine to be boarded again for a few days. I told them she was on a special wet diet, could not be around other dogs, and needed her medicine. When I picked her up on July 23 she was withdrawn and was very picky about eating her wet food so I was making her bland chicken and rice. August 19 she stopped eating all together and was soiling herself in her sleep. I took her to a different er vet where they did blood work and told me she had a bad infection and needed an ultrasound to determine what to do next. The tech there that came out to my car (where they have you wait) to do my dog's health history asked me when the symptoms started. I told her they started after she was boarded at Sterling Meadows for the 4th of July. She told me that they get a lot of dogs that have been boarded at Sterling meadows with problems and they end up dying. My children were also in my car with me and our dog and we were all shocked. She said to check their Facebook page to read some of the stories but said they were likely deleted. I asked the vet if what my dog had could be caused by something at the boarder and he said without a video showing someone feeding her something toxic like grapes there's no way to know for sure. He was concerned about her kidneys and sent us home with kidney food and medicine to try to get her to eat. She would not eat the wet kidney food. They called the next day to schedule an ultrasound but couldn't get us in until September 18. After that call I knew she wouldn't make it to September 18 and needed immediate care so I took her to a different er vet in Williamsburg to get more tests done. They gave us medicine to try but she refused because she was too far gone. The Williamsburg er vet said that her kidneys looked good and suggested we go to an internal medicine vet to determine what was going on. On August 23rd she was so atrophied, weak, in pain, and the 4th vet (our regular vet who was too booked to take us during this whole ordeal and kept saying to take her to the er vet) said she wasn't going to get better so we made the difficult decision to put her to sleep. We are all heartbroken! We are a military family and reviews matter since we don't know anyone to ask for recommendations. I read good and bad ones about this place but it seemed happier than others I had visited. I wish that the first vet did more tests so I didn't stupidly take her back and the vet tech from the second er vet would share what they are seeing in their office on here to warn pet parents but I know they can't post that publicly. Please do your research on this place. Ask your vet or a few different vets in the area who they suggest you board your dog with. Indeed.com had some interesting comments from past employees. Check google reviews as well. Rest in peace Bonnie. Gone far too soon.
