Testimonials
Word of mouth has always been our primary source of new referrals. Here’s what some of our customers have to say about their experiences with Calypso.
Maine to Miami: Calypso is the best
Dear Calypso Kennels,“Over the past 17 years, with each move back to the greater DC area, we have used Calypso kennel. We drove our first dog, Bandit, over 25 miles to place him with the warm hearted caretakers at Calypso Kennel whenever we had to go out of town. Over the years we always used Calypso as our “gold standard” by which we rated other kennels from Maine to Miami and we can easily state that we never found a better kennel to tend to our pets. Being dual active duty military, we have relied upon many kennels but none have served us more warmly or with more care. And, the best testament is from our dogs themselves. Bandit was always excited when we arrived at Calypso. When your dog is eager to visit his friends at the kennel, you know you found a good one! Now, our new family member Dino, reacts the same (maybe it those yogurt treats) and we truly believe it is from the caring and professional staff at Calypso!Thank you for everything you do for us, and our furry family friends.”—Lori, Jim, James II and Dino (Bandit too)
A Safe, Friendly and Clean Kennel
“I have been boarding my two boys, Harley and Magic at Calypso Kennels for about 5 years. I love all the attention they get and all the special treats (yogurt parfait, Ice Cream) that they offer. It means alot to me that the staff greets my boys when I drop them off. I know that my boys are being well cared for when I have to go away on a trip. I especially love the new Doggie Suites that Calypso has and I have been putting the boys in one together. My one boy, Magic, who is very timid and scared, has been so much happier in the Doggie Suite. The suites are quiet and the staff tell me that Magic does not act so frightened when they go into the suite to give him a treat or take him out for playtime. I know that Magic is alot less anxious when I pick him up. I would highly recommend Calypso Kennels for anyone who is looking for a safe, friendly, clean place to board their pets.”—Tabetha Long
A Personable and Helpful Staff
“Winston, our English Mastiff, is no lap dog. However, he is our big baby and we were selective about choosing a kennel to board him during a holiday weekend away. Calypso Kennels was referred to us by a neighbor and our concerns were alleviated when the CK staff gave us a personal tour of the facility, answered all of our questions and even showed us the back rooms where laundry and meals were prepared. When we returned to pick up Winston, they took us back to his kennel where he was boarded. The entire staff came out to greet “the big goober,” as they dubbed him, on our return visits. Thank you Calypso Kennels.”—Lacey Roderick
