I'm looking for a boarding option where I can have my dog walked several times a day, an option to have one on one play with a human, and accommodation with room to walk around and have a bed in a small area with outside access to a protected grass area.

I'm not looking to put him in a situation where he learns to bark and beg for attention because he's left alone and ignored for hours while he's in a cage and is listening to other dogs bark for attention because they're stressed out too!
I have been in the same bucket.

We did use Village Pet Spa, however one of our dogs came home injured and "they have no idea, it couldn't have happened there, are we sure it's an injury" That plus the addition of several other changes - they are no longer on our list to use.

The Vets don't do it any more, and the reviews on some others aren't all that encouraging.

Much luck, it's not at all easy.
