        What Pet Parents Say About Us

        Our dog loves Pet Paradise!

        Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

        We love Pet Paradise and my dog does too, she doesn't get scared when we drop her off.  The employees are always friendly and I appreciate how they report on how my dog's day went.  They even remember her by name.

        Love Coconut Creek!

        Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

        I have boarded my dogs at Pet Paradise before, but this was the first time at the Coconut Creek location. I am a huge fan of Pet Paradise, and this location is no exception. The staff is very friendly and took wonderful care of my dogs. The facility is brand new and very clean. I really enjoyed tuning into the webcams and seeing my dogs have a great time in the pool and play areas. We will definitely be back!

        Kind & Loving Staff

        Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

        This place is amazing. They took very good care of my pups and especially kept a close eye out for my blind pup as she just kept running into everything and everyone. They were super kind and loving towards them during the day and even when my little 5 month old got scared of a stampede of big dogs coming at him for a ball they picked him up and comforted him until he settled. This place is honestly a dream to have around here.

        I have been bringing my pup Nate here for close to a year and a half for day camp and day boarding and I highly recommend Pet Paradise - Charlottesville! They are so friendly, professional and always know who we are when we walk in the door which always makes you feel at home.

        Early Drop Off Equals Lots of Playtime

        Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

        What a great place for pets to have a day of fun or for boarding. We tried out Pet Paradise for doggy daycare. The early drop off worked well for my work schedule. It also meant that my dog got a long 12 hour day of fun! I loved being able to check-in on her via the webcams. All the staff were very friendly and answered all my questions. We will definitely be returning.
