Brinley stayed for 3 days @ Angelic Paws. She's a rescue....been with me for 4 yrs. She's still fearful of strangers . Kristin's gentle approach was what she needed to be comfortable there & they provided that. I wouldn't hesitate to take her there again.

Kristen has been an essential part of raising our young and spicy Pomeranian. She’s given us the resources to maintain the skills she trained during the board and train. We’ll be sending our dogs to her for refresher training anytime we’ll be out of town!

Super pleased with the love & care provided to Waylon during his two week stay at Angelic Paws Training & Boarding. We were able to enjoy our trip wholeheartedly knowing that Kristen and her crew were taking such exceptional care of him. Waylon was familiar with the facilities as he attends day care on Wednesdays. This was helpful to avoid any extra stress. Thankful to all of his furry friends - Peach, Peaches, Lucy, & Gigi for keeping him company. Thank you Angelic Paws for being a great part of the Galena community 🐾
My babies were so well taken care of here!!! It's the first time we've left them that my husband wasn't a nervous wreck. From the daily pictures to the report card at pick up, it was 100% stress free and Sadie and Sophie loved it there!!
SO happy we found this place to board our dogs! Kristin is incredibly kind and you can tell how much she cares for the dogs.
