If Dogs Could Write Google Reviews… 🐾

We read a lot of reviews in the dog boarding world. Some are detailed, some are emotional, and some clearly came from very enthusiastic dog parents.

But it got us thinking…

What if dogs could write their own Google reviews?

Here’s what we imagine they might say about their stay at Ruby’s K9 Corral.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Would Stay Again. No Notes.”
— Buddy, 6-year-old Lab

“Smelled like other dogs. 10/10.
Lots of naps. Snacks arrived on time.
Humans understood my need to be told I’m a good boy.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“I Was Nervous at First, But…”
— Daisy, First-Time Boarder

“I pretended I wasn’t sure about this place.
Then I realized nobody rushed me.
They let me watch things before joining in.
Ate dinner on Day 2. Felt brave. Would recommend.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Very Structured. I Appreciate That.”
— Max, Senior Dog

“Consistent routine.
Quiet time respected.
Staff noticed when I needed a break.
Joints felt okay.
I slept very well.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“I Made Friends. Also Slept a Lot.”
— Luna, High-Energy Girl

“Ran. Sniffed. Played.
Humans knew when it was time to calm down.
Fell asleep before I could even miss my people.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Food Smelled Familiar. That Helped.”
— Cooper

“I didn’t eat right away.
Nobody panicked.
They knew I just needed time.
Finished my bowl later. Felt proud.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“My Human Was Nervous. I Was Fine.”
— Charlie

“Drop-off was dramatic.
Human cried a little.
I adjusted.
Came home tired and happy.
Human booked again.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Final Thoughts From the Dogs

“We like calm voices.”
“We like routine.”
“We like being treated like individuals.”
“We like going home happy.”

The Real Review

While dogs can’t leave Google reviews (yet), their behavior tells us everything we need to know. A relaxed posture. A wagging tail. A dog who settles in, eats, sleeps, and goes home content. Plus we always hear about dogs getting so excited when they come back to see us!

At Ruby’s K9 Corral, we believe great care doesn’t need to be loud or flashy — it just needs to be thoughtful, consistent, and kind.

And if dogs could write reviews?
We think they’d give us five stars 🐾
