Not a great place for animals We boarded our dogs here last Christmas and although it wasn't a terrible experience, I wouldn't recommend this place. They don't allow you to bring the dog's crate or any bedding and they strongly encourage you to allow them to use their own food. I strongly believe that all of this leads to a more stressful situation for the pet. I think it is clear that they are more concerned about making things easy for themselves than about the best situation for the animal. Our more sensitive dog took a c... read more

poor service I NEVER board my 3 Golden Retrievers, but needed to as we were having a large gathering at my house. Reserved two adjoining suites that would allow all 3 dogs to mingle with each other thru a door that connected the two suites. When I got there, I was told that was not available, but they did have two adjoining suites, but with no door! So great, 1 dog gets to see the other 2 dogs, but can't be with them. Nice!! It doesn't seem that hard to hold a reservation for what it was supposed to be, but apparently, here ... read more

In response to Scott P. below, we would like to add the following: It is truly a difficult and emotional time when a pet owner has to say that final goodbye to their loved one; however Karnik understands this heartache and often, as a family, we grieve the loss alongside the owner. While we came to love both **** and ***** in their short 9 day stay with us, our hearts broke for **** in his difficult and "special needs" condition. We truly empathize with the family having to make that ultimate final decision that no pet owner... read more

I want to thank Ray Bauman. owner of Karnik Pet Lodge who sat with me and explained how company policy and procedures trumps customer care and satisfaction. How records of staff are more important and informative than an owners’ recognition of their own pets condition. After our recent stay in which an elderly dog walked in and was carried out a week later and then euthanized with permanent nerve damage; their records show that the dog left in the same condition in which he arrived. By the owners own admission, it required t... read more

Do not go to karnik DO NOT, repeat, DO NOT take your pet to Karnik if you care for them at all. We dropped off our elderly dog that walked in with minor assistance to steady him and had to carry him out one week later. They “ran out” of his meds by dropping them in the bottom of his box and allowed him to lay on his back legs for so long that the nerve damage was permanent and he was unable to walk at all. We had to euthanize him the day after we got him home and listened to him cry in pain all night. The vet said he most li... read more
