Pleasant Valley Kennels Inc

My husband and I recently moved to St. Louis from the northeast. We have never had to board our 11 year old terrier before, and we were nervous about how he would fare at a kennel. After touring a couple of other facilities, I felt confident that Pleasant Valley would be a good fit.
They did not disappoint. The staff was friendly. My impression is that it is a family establishment (the owners’ home is on the property) and therefore offers all of the benefits of a family business. We took comfort in the fact that they encouraged us to bring Bailey’s own bed, blankets, toys, and food (he is on a prescription diet). He had his own caged area with a «doggie door» to an individual outdoor run. While many kennels are boasting group playtime and even large group sleeping arrangements, we actually preferred for Bailey to have his own space as we were not sure how he would react in a social setting. They offer group or individual playtime based on your pet’s needs/​personality.
When we picked him up we were pleasantly surprised that he was freshly bathed and his blankets were freshly washed. He was in good spirits. We will use this business again.
