THEY HAVE BEAUTIFUL GROUNDS WITH THE KENNELS UNDER SHADED TREES FOR HOT DAYS. THEIR STAFF IS FRIENDLY. OUR DOG IS EXTREMELY NERVOUS AND TIMID AND USUALLY TAKES A FEW DAYS TO RECOVER FROM THE STRESS OF A KENNEL STAY. HE RECOVERED IMMEDIATELY FROM HICKORY ACRES AND SEEMS VERY HAPPY AND WELL-MAINTAINED. THE GROOMERS DID A GREAT JOB CLEANING HIM UP. I WOULD DEFINITELY USE THEM AGAIN.

BOTH DOGS LOVED IT! I HAVE HAD VERY BAD EXPERIENCES WITH OTHER KENNELS IN THE PAST, AND AM EXTREMELY PICKY ABOUT WHO I CAN LEAVE MY DOGS WITH, BUT THIS TIME I FOUND A KEEPER! DOGS WERE FED THEIR SPECIAL FOOD AND THE STAFF EVEN GAVE ME DETAILED UPDATES WHEN I CALLED IN TO CHECK ON THEM. THEY EVEN GAVE THEM A BATH SO THE DOGS CAME HOME SMELLING GREAT! I WILL ABSOLUTELY USE THEM FROM NOW ON FOR ALL OUR DOG KENNELING.

I DRIVE FOR 45 MINUTES FROM FROM OUR HOME TO THE KENNEL AND PROBABLY PASS A GREAT NUMBER OF OTHER KENNELS EN ROUTE BUT IT''S WORTH THE DRIVE FOR THE CARE AND PROFESSIONALISM GIVEN AT HICKORY ACRES. WE HAVE USED OTHER KENNELS BEFORE FINDING HICKORY ACRES AND NONE COMPARE. WE LOVE THE COUNTRY SETTING AND THE FRIENDLY, ATTENTIVE STAFF.
Description of Work: HAVE USED HICKORY ACRES FOR BOARDING OUR VERY OVERWEIGHT BEAGLE FOR 5 YRS. USUALLY FOR 7-10 DAYS FOUR TIMES PER YEAR. SHE IS GROOMED WHEN WE PICK HER UP AND HAS HAD INDIVIDUALIZED ATTENTION FROM THE STAFF WHO ALWAYS GREET HER BY NAME.

BOARDED CATS & DOGS. BE SURE TO BOOK EARLY FOR THE BIG HOLIDAYS. ONE DOWNSIDE IS THAT YOU PAY THE SAME IF 2 DOGS STAY IN ONE CAGE OR TWO. ALSO, IT'S NOT OPEN ON SUNDAYS.
