In our last blog we have highlighted two key reasons you should consider when choosing a quality dog boarding facility Safety Measures and Trained Staff. Today let’s continue to shed light to what else really distinguishes one dog boarding business from another. These last couple of items are also very important when finding the right place for your pooch.
4. Reviews and Recommendations
Don’t just take the facility’s word for it—do your research. Read online reviews, ask for recommendations from friends or veterinarians, get familiar with the facility to get a feel for the environment and meet the staff.
Daryana’s Backyard is grateful for all the reviews our clients have taken the time to leave on Google, Daryana’s Backyard Facebook page and group, Square, as well as shoutouts in local Facebook groups and Word of Mouth groups across social media. We are very proud of our exceptional 5 star ratings and excited to have been awarded “Pet Sitter of the Year” in both Highlands Ranch and Centennial. We were also recently featured in an interview conducted by Voyage Denver.
5. Communication
A good boarding facility will keep you updated on your dog’s well-being while you’re away. Inquire about communication methods, such as daily photo or video updates, and make sure the staff is responsive to any questions or concerns you may have.
From offering multiple booking options such as email, phone, text, to daily posts on multiple social platforms while your dog is enjoying their stay, Daryana’s Backyard gets frequent positive feedback on the flexibility, quality, and quantity of communication channels offered. Many first-time dog boarding owners are understandably concerned and anxious that their dog is settling in and seeing numerous photos of their pet playing and having fun soon puts their minds at ease. DM’s are also an option especially for owners who have traveled overseas. Daryana’s Backyard can use FB Messenger, Instagram, and What’s App to keep owners informed.
