I have been taking my dog Charley to 4Paws since we moved to RI. Charley absolutely loves all the staff and loves playing in the outdoor play area. They throw the ball for her all day long...and she comes home tired (usually) and very happy. We are very happy with the people at 4Paws and the facility. I know Charley is in good hands when I drop her off there!

The staff there are all very friendly and enjoyable to work with. They take great care of my Jake. He love going for daycare so much he pull the staff to the kennel he wants for the day. I think he has them all trained by now. ;) The doctors they are friendly and take great care of both my furkids. Very clean place as well.

I know that this is a for profit business, but they are just unethical. I brought my dog in for an ear infection, and was NEVER TOLD that her heartworm vaccination was due. When I called to get a prescription for heartworm medication for 1-800-pet meds, they stated I needed to bring her back in for her heartworm shot. So, that's an extra exam fee, an extra lab fee, and a medication fee, 2 DAYS after I last brought her in. Unacceptable to put my dog through another exam just two days later when they could have just done it all at the same time. They never even told me she was due for her shot, and I would have neglected this very important health issue had I not called.

I have taken my little (and precious) 11-month old Chihuahua, Tatonka, to Rhode Island Animal Medical Center for his shots and veterinary services since bringing him home, and to the on-site day care ever since he received his required immunizations, and it has been a wonderful experience from the beginning. He absolutely LOVES to go to the day care (he practically pushes me out of the car as soon as we park!) He has received nothing but the best of care and lots of love and attention from the entire staff, and they have always been warm and friendly to me. When I have requested last minute that he stay overnight, they have been more than accomodating and he has always come home just as clean (even more so!) than when he left. They also have a grooming facility and they do a great job too. I know that when I leave Tatonka there that he is in loving, capable hands - and to me - that peace of mind is priceless. I cannot imagine ever taking him anywhere else!

My girlfriend had been taking her dog here a few times for day care (we both work). The last time we took him (which is the last time ever, as you will soon see), we got him back covered in dirty sticky gunk and stinking of a mix between urine and chemicals. It was all over him and he began vomiting after we took him home (straight into a bath) and continued the next day. We took him to an animal hospital and they diagnosed him with pancreatitis. When we called to express our dismay they were not proactive about solving the problem, they could only claim about how clean their facility was. While most see pets as mere animals, you live with one enough and you kind of have to feel for the little guy. And when it comes to living things that are considered part of a family, there's not a whole lot of room for error. Nobody would take their baby back to a daycare that "shook a baby just one time". Anyway, I was angered enough to write this review. Unfortunately, as they say in the military, one "oh sh**" will wipe out 100 "atta boys". Our pet is currently convalescing with an IV attached.
