Julington Creek Animal Walk

We've been using the Animal hospital for quite some time and the availability of the "doggie hotel" as we like to call it is a convenient addition. The boarding with various options of play time - see dog bone shaped pool - and dog cams in certain kennels shows that this was well thought out. It's a money maker for sure and we've had no problems with the services offered. I believe there are even memberships for frequent users but we only use them when we really need to. Prices are moderate to high depending on your expectations. Staff is friendly and there is no shortage of resources.Definitely make reservations and appointments for smoother transactions and visits.

We have been going to Julington creek for.almost 20 years and they have always been.nice and professional however it was the last visit for my dog Chocolate that really set them apart. Chocolate at 15 had lost the use of her back legs and bodily functions. After 3 weeks of trying different medications we decided that it was time. The care and compassion that the staff have for us really went above what anyone could expect. I was almost non-functional and both the staff and the veterinarian staff could not have been more understanding. I say staff because multiple vets took a last look to make sure we had not over looked something. I can recommend this business like a old friend as they have been with our family from when our dog was able to be held in one hand all the way through her happy healthy life. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone there. Mark Peterson

Dr. Rod and his Dad have always been great Vets. But I took my Eastern European Shepherd to the animal walk so he could go to day care and spend time with other dogs. He loved it. Was so looking forward to it every day. One day, the lady running the day care said he had to be fixed or he could not come back as he was becoming interested in mating with other dogs and they did not want that. I understood and and thought about it for a bit and decided to get him fixed so he could play with his pals. He never got aggressive or bit another dog, ever. So once he healed, I brought him back and was told that he would not be allowed with other dogs because he likes to herd smaller dogs just like he likes to take your hand and other dog owners were concerned that something might happen. So you suggested to me to cut off my dogs balls knowing that the only reason we were doing it was so he could go to your day care and be with other dogs also knowing you would not let him play with others anyway. Nice Move. So informative. Obviously, I'm with another vet now and the first time I took him to them he said that its too bad he was fixed because he had perfect structure and had a lot to offer the breed. Thank you sooo much. Push your agenda on others by lying to them.

If money is no object, this is the place for you. Prepare to be charged extra for everything. You pay extra for outdoor play and it's only about 30 minutes. Wanna see your dog on the webcam, theres a charge for that. If you're gone 3 weeks these daily charges really add up. It seems almost predatory how they try to capitalize on the owners' emotions. Who doesn't want their dog to have playtime.

Our dog is human and dog aggressive and the Animal Walk is the only boarding place in Jacksonville that will take him! They have always treated us and our rescue with respect. We usually are sure to book far in advance for our stays because of our dog's special needs. We also go to the vet next door which makes things SO easy for us!

Friendly staff. Made my dog feel right at home. Would definitely recommend this place!

We had never left our dog alone before for longer then overnight. She is our baby and has anxiety issues. We had heard great things about Julington Creek and decided we would board our dog here while on vacation. We could not have been happier about our decision. They were beyond amazing. I can not say enough good things about Julington Creek. They put our minds at ease and we were able to enjoy our vacation to the fullest without excessive worrying. When we picked our dog up, she was clean and happy. We will definitely be back again and recommend this place to anyone looking for a great place to board your pets.

These fools close from noon until 2pm. NOBODY there to release a groomed dog. Instead my geriatric dog had to sit in a cage an additional 2 hours in addition to the 3 spent all morning. So they can all have 2 hour lunch hour. Animal cruelty in my opinion and after going there for over a decade, something changed with management and I'm gone.

Great place for grooming! It's the only place our dog will cooperate as she doesn't like being bathed! They always get us in at a timely manner. Prices are reasonable and staff are friendly and warm towards our pup!

Boarded my dog at Julington Creek Animal Walk for 4 days and even included their upgrade for doggie playtime outside (why is there a charge to allow your dog to run around outside a kennel?) Picked him up Sunday with my dog having an eye infection in both eyes and a piece of his skin missing from his neck. Doesn't appear they took care of my dog by the way he was returned to me
