Pet Boarding Training near Derwood

“Stella had a great time during her stay. We received photos and videos while she was there. She came home happy and tired.“

“I used to take my dog here decades ago when I was a teenager. I’ve brought one of my dogs in for her vaccinations and bloodwork and everyone was so nice and friendly. Dr. Strome was really gentle with my Freya and took care of her like she was one of her own.

I’ve been to many vets but this one has been the best.“

“Absolutely recommend Healthy Hound Grooming. The staff are incredibly friendly and professional. They take very good care of my baby Maru, he always looks fresh and smells incredible after every session. He’s horribly anxious but the staff are so good with him. If you need a place to get high quality service for grooming, this place is it!“

“Thank you, Tom, for giving me and my family the tools to ensure our Cavapoo puppy grew up to be a wonderful dog. We get compliments all of the time on how well behaved and responsive she is. We have recommended you to many people in the community. Your training gave us peace of mind when we have her off leash (in safe places), and when she is in our home. I am so much more confident as a dog owner with your help and support!!“

“Brittany was absolutely wonderful! She was flexible with scheduling and worked around my work hours, which I really appreciated. She was incredibly kind and gentle with my 1-year-old Corgi, who has shown some aggressive behaviors.

Brittany equipped my husband and me with practical techniques and training skills that have made a noticeable difference. She emphasized the importance of consistency in parent training, and it's true—real progress comes with committed practice.

She also provided helpful follow-up notes and reference guides, which have been invaluable as we continue the training on our own. If you're looking to make meaningful changes in your dog’s behavior, I highly recommend working with Brittany!“

“Really appreciated the wonderful care Steven and Marley took of our two dogs. One spent the night and the other came during the days. Our dogs were content and happy, and when we returned home everything was in order. One of our dogs is much older and the other younger, and their specific needs were accommodated for. We also got tons of pictures and multiple updates daily which was fantastic! Could not ask for more!“

“I have been a client of Alpine for 35 years. The veterinarians are skilled, kind, and caring. The same goes for the techs. They are also consistently friendly and efficient. My dog can be a handful to treat, yet the staff seem quite fond of him.“

“The veterinarian was super nice and loved my ball pythons. The lobby is also really cool looking they have several fish tanks. They seem to really care a lot about the animals and live their work.

Edit: This is one of the closest places near Frederick that accepts treatment on snakes. Also this veterinary office tries to make sure your animal is living in the right environment and gets the correct and needed nutrients or equipment. I might switch all my animals here even though it’s a long drive.“

“Love the doctors and staff. Been going here for years and always feel comfortable, place is clean.“

“My puppy loves his daycare! He is an energetic and very social dog and I am so glad he has a safe, fun place to socialize. The owners really care for your pets! They are always flexible with my schedule as needed and are always happy to see my puppy. They have also been helpful with tips for myself as first time dog owner. So thankful to have found a great place for my dog!“

“Very happy with Ken Haven. Dr. Manzoor, the pet techs and front office. Staff are helpful, efficient kind, gentle. The only reason I'm not giving five stars is because I can't compare prices to other vets. I do know they helped us during Covid which sadly our historical vet was not able to. Highly recommend KenHaven animal hospital“

“Very friendly staff. Very clean and not smelly. They are thorough and gave me a report card for how my dog's day went. Recently switched to Houndstown from another facility and have been happy I did so far.“

“If I could 100 stars, I would. My poor pup was bitten by a copperhead, and Dr. Felrice was a lifesaver, literally. Despite having a very full hospital, they fit him in and worked tirelessly for 24 hours on him, working with other vets for the antivenin and to ensure the best treatment. The entire clinic was just amazing, for both our pup and with us, making sure we understood treatment and his condition. Love these guys, switching my care to them.“

“I have brought my dog to this vet for 6 years now for her annual checkups and also getting her spade. They provide great service and convenient location.“

“One of the best basic training that covers at least seven commands that are useful in many situations. Being in a class with a trainer and assistant trainers is fantastic. As a first time dog owner I learned a lot about communicating with my pup.“

“The vet was amazing as were the vet techs. My only minor complaint was the wait to check in but I totally understood why once I got up to check in and all my questions were answered thoughtfully and throughly.“

“All the staff are wonderful and take excellent care of my cats. They are also good with humans.“

“Update 8/29/25: I highly recommed their boarding services. Our Great Pyrnees stayed there happily for a week. Much appreciated.

Grooming Services: They are the best for Great Pyrnees“

“took our new daushound puppy to Dr.Brody and his staff. she had a tick bite and some other issues. He took care of them all. and we got her vacs taken care of. Great place and great staff. AA++“

“Been coming here for several years. Dr Adelman has always given such great attention and care to my dogs and cats. The technician's and reception have been exceptionally kind and efficient in their assistance with my babies (especially with my unruly German Shepard). Would give this more stars if I could ?✨“
