Dog Sitters in Benicia, CA

Carol is just the best! She truly loves all pets and my dogs adore her. Carol is patient and easygoing even with my little nutty girl. I know when my babies are with her they are happy, loved and safe. Plus- she sends me awesome pix and updates at least once a day to put my mind further at ease. I have 4 dogs who are my life. (I am one of ‘those’ people - lol) I am so so thankful I have someone I can trust them with! Thanks Carol!!

My boy Brody loves going to see his Aunt Carol! Yes, that is how amazing she is, she will forever be one of his Aunties. I don’t trust just anyone with my baby but she made me feel comfortable at the meet and greet initially and the first day went well so we are a lifetime customer. I appreciate any necessary updates and picture messages of what he’s doing during his stay. Carol is so great she even takes him on walks to meet her friends. She always provides a synopsis of his day including anything that was concerning to her.

Carol is very loving of all the dogs she sits. She watches my dog while I'm out of town for 1 - 4 nights. She snuggles my dog, follows my directions for feeding her, and really tries to make my dog feel comfortable at her home. Carol has been very accommodating for me, especially when trips don't go as planned and I'm unable to get home on time to pick up my dog. She's responsive via text message for scheduling and general communication and she follows up to confirm our dates right before I'm planning to leave, to make sure she's home. I really enjoy working with Carol and my dog gets excited when she realizes she's going to Carol's.

Elizabeth Jones seems to have started an account just to give local pet sitters 1 star reviews, despite having never interacted with them. Do not pay any attention to her review! I run into Carol on my regular morning walks and she is definitely a true professional. I would be completely comfortable with my pet in her care.

If you're looking for a professional, safe and compassionate home for your dog while you are away, Waterfront Dog Boarding is an excellent choice! The owner, Carol, is a very kind and thoughtful lady whom excels with her doggie care home. She is a true dog lover! It's very nice to have peace of mind that my dog is happy abd safe while I'm away.

Fantastic experience! My dog means the world to me and it was so nice to have Carol watch her for me. I couldn’t recommend her more highly. Mike

Carol is great with dogs and I would refer anybody to her!

Carol is awesome!! My dog did not to leave!!

Great place for dogs

I would be more than happy to resolve any issues that you have. However, I don't recall having any interaction with you and I'm not sure why I was given a one star review.

Beware this facility has KENNEL COUGH. I understand it happens in kennels, but they refuse to take any responsibility for my dog (yorkie) being so sick. Farrington was the only place he had been to have caught this. I have called and spoke with Tonya, the manager or owner of the facility, her compassion was minimal considering i told her my concerns. My little dog was and is so sick over 2 weeks now. I thought he had pneumonia as he was whizzing so much but think goodness his lungs were clear to the tune of an $800 emergency vet bill. This is the first time I have had to "kennel" my dog and I assure you it will be the last. Now I know why their prices are so low. Furthermore, when I picked up my dog after his 4 days stay - he was full of urine. My dog ordinarily doesn't peed on himself. I have no idea what that was about. She gave me some lame excuse, but frankly I don't believe her. His bed was also being "washed". Too many red flags with this kennel. What in the heck is going on with our pets after we drop them off in their care...it's a mystery.

We’ve taken our dog here a few times to stay while we went out of town and she seems to like it here. The ladies are nice and very accommodating making the experience simple. A couple things to note they are not open for weekend drop off and pick up and they charge an extra 5$ each day to feed twice a day.

I've been taking my 2 dogs to them for years. They always deliver excellent customer service and my doggies always turn out so cute. I know my two are a handful, and Farrington's always rises to the occasion. Keep up the good work! Oh, I almost forgot. Love their doggie daycare!

Love this place! My dogs love staying there and they offer grooming after their stays. Only challenge is they don't take drop offs on Sat and Sunday so it's always a full weekend commitment even if you only need one night. Other than that, I would highly recommend it to any dog and cat lover🥰. …

This was my first time boarding my dog here. My dog came out wagging his tail so happy so it made me feel so good to see how happy he was. At home he seemed very calm I wonder if they gave him a little training as well? But overall he's been himself and I can see he sure missed us 😁. I will definitely use their services again. The staff is friendly and welcoming so that helps a lot too. Thank you so much for looking over my dog and taking good care of him.

We found Farrington Kennels via Google and saw that it had good reviews. There were more than a few negative reviews but we figured, we will form our own opinion and give them a try. We dropped off our dog on a Friday and had to leave town for a week. Check-in went fine, the staff at check in was nice and easy to talk to. When they brought our dog in, they just had me put a slip lead on my dog and hand him away. I thought I was going to be able to bring him to the place he was staying but did not. Ok that was fine. But when they were gone, behind one of the doors I heard dogs barking and you can hear a worker yell “shut up!”. Heard it but just let it go because I don’t know what’s happening behind the scenes. Afterwards I left. We dropped him off on Friday, the weekend passed and Monday was New Year’s Day. On Tuesday we called to check up on our dog and they said that he was doing fine. He’s keeping to himself in the corner with his toy. We asked if he has eaten since being there, they placed us on hold to ask the weekend crew if our dog has been eating/drinking. When she came back on the line she said “Yes, he’s eating and he’s doing great!” That put our minds at ease and felt that he’s doing good in there, eating and he will be fine. We were able to enjoy the time away. On January 9th, I picked up our dog to bring him home. When he came out, he seemed so anxious. We thought it was because he had been in there for a little over a week but when I called his name he looked over to me and he was happy to see me. As I was walking him to our car, I noticed how small he looked and how anxious he was to get out of there. I took him home and when my wife seen him, she noticed how skinny he was as well. We called Farrington and spoke to “N”, (I wont disclose her name). She stated that when dogs come in it takes a couple days for them to settle in and get into routine. Ok, makes sense. But when I asked if our dog has been eating, she said “she personally didn’t physically see him eating or drinking but when she would replace the water bowl, there would be slobber so she figures he would be. Well, the weekend crew said he was eating, drinking and doing great. Well, from the look of our dog, that’s not what it looked liked. He was 107lbs when we dropped him off on the Dec 29th. When we picked him up on Jan 9th, we weighed him and he weighed 98lbs. A loss of 9lbs!!!! What the heck!!! My wife called Farrington and spoke to “N” then was transferred to manager “T”. She was very rude and stated they took care of our dog and it’s not their fault that our dog was shaking and anxious. She said his weight loss was normal but 9lbs is a lot to lose in that amount of time if our dog was so called doing great and eating. She also mentioned they had @ 120 dogs that week and they did the best they can. If you can’t give equal care for each pet then you shouldn’t have that many in your facility. We never got a call stating our dog was anxious and shaking. We were only told he was doing great, eating and well behaved. We put our trust in this place but unfortunately our dog did not receive the care we expected; More like neglected. Per “T”; this place is not a good place for your dog, take your business elsewhere. Well, we formed our own opinion and will not be taking our dog here for any future stays. Was really hoping for a great experience but we got the complete opposite.

The best place to leave your precious animals! Amazing staff!

My dog stays here when I travel. She absolutely loves going. The staff are friendly and really do love their fur clients. They have a groomer on staff a few days a week and they do a good job on my girl when I add the service to her stay with them.

When I picked up my maltipoo Maya after a 10-day stay, she smelled good and her blankets & toys are newly washed. The staff is also very friendly & attentive. I am glad I found this place as my Maya’s second home.

We boarded our hyper heeler Rosin while we went on vacation and had a great experience. We were able to enjoy time away and not have to worry! Shoutout to Tonya for the great customer service. We will definitely be back.

This place is often noticeably and consistently clean and organized. It also appears they have recently made the place more secure. The staff is always nice and hospitable. I love that they offer grooming services and a host of other services and enrichment program for the dogs. They appear to offer great care to my mother's dog, Sheba. Grooming is much more reasonably priced than other places and they do a good quick job. While the location is a bit remote and not much foliage or infrastructure surrounding the area, the positives outweigh the negatives.

We love taking Ollie here. They are nice and friendly. Ollie is very social and loves to play with other dogs. Just recently we are taking Bella, another dog who is shy. Leslie was sitting with her and letting her come to her on her terms which helped her feel comfortable. The staff is very patient with her.

I have used them for boarding my dog Patrón. The staff has always been friendly and I can tell they care for the dogs. I always leave him knowing he is in good hands. Definitely recommend!

Our mini dachshunds Zuki and Coco love this day care. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating to our pups needs. We feel comfortable leaving our fur babies here.

Great place for my dogs and now they've added grooming services. Really happy with this center!!

My dog LOSES HER MIND in excitement when she realizes where we're going! The loving and attentive staff are by far her favorite people on the planet, I'm definitely second to them on her list of favorites 😂 We love to come for a play day or an overnight if I'm going out of town, and I never have to worry that my pups are bored, lonely, or not being loved!

I have a very well behaved service dog with all vaccinations who has been to many doggie daycares without any incident and she wouldn't even consider my dog. living next to a amusement park you think you'd be more open people from out of the area she was very rude on the phone And almost stated that she wasn't going to take the dog at that point but told me I could fill out the paperwork. I did as she asked I faxed over all the paperwork vaccines and registered service dog tags I knew even before I started filling the paperwork she wasn't even going to consider us these aren't people that are doing it for the dogs

Very friendly staff and my dogs love going to camp. They divide the dogs into groups based on size and the have their own play yard. I like the fact the dogs are free to sleep anywhere they like and not stuck in a kennel until play time. I feel safe leaving my fur babies and they enjoy the play time.

We've been talking our 80-pound German Shepherd/Greyhound mix here for about eight months now. She always comes home tired and happy, it's always clean, and the staff is friendly. We always feel really comfortable boarding her overnight.

We appreciate boarding our Tucker at Arrdvarks because we know he is safe and will be fine when we pick him up. It is the best scenario for our situation. We aren't confident with a live in dog sitter so we will be staying with Aardvarks for our fur baby.

My best friend, Rosie the labradoodle, is a high energy kind of girl, so I make sure she gets plenty of exercise and socialization. Recently I found the doggie daycare at North Main Pet Lodge, which also does boarding. The good news is that Rosie loves her stays there, and I have complete confidence in the owners and staff, who are both friendly and professional. The lodge is not fancy but both the kennels and the play areas are clean and perfect for an active girl like Rosie. Highly recommended.

I have taken my two dogs to the pet lodge for several years now. The staff is wonderful and professional . I have the highest level of trust in them .

What I love most about the pet lodge is how thoughtful Chris, Colleen, and all of their friendly staff are to help create a comfortable stay for all types of doggy personalities. Highly recommend for both boarding and daycare services. Thank you North Main Pet Lodge!

This business used to be the best for your pet services, but since it's changed ownership, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. We have a huskie, and before the change of ownership, our dog Dee loved loved loved this place, but since the change of ownership, the 1 time we took our dog, when we went to pick her up... she was crying and didn't even come up to us, and ran straight to our car 😞 this was heartbreaking for us. She was depressed for 3 days after we brought her home. Dee is usually a happy go lucky, fun loving dog, so this was disturbing for me. We miss the old owners....

I have been taking my dog Jasper to North Main Pet Lodge for 6 months and I’m extremely pleased with the quality of their services. Chris and Colleen have a lot of experience working with pets and it is evident by the care and attention they give each of their customers. I especially like that there are supervised play times to ensure everyone plays safely. I trust the care of my pet for both daycare and overnight boarding with North Main Pet Lodge!

We love North Main Pet Lodge and have used it for our cat for the last 8 years. The cat facilities are large and the enrichment provided by staff keeps our cat happy. We know he is safe and well looked after which gives us peace of mind. This is all besides the fact that the owners and staff are responsive, friendly and caring :)

Really pleased with North Main Pet Lodge, especially the good care and personal attention they gave our dog during his stay. This is a family owned operation, and they really know what they are doing. Will definitely be back -- this is now our preferred dog sitter! I especially like the upgrade options they offer for overnight stays, including 1 on 1 time with the dog, group play, various walks, and evening treats. We signed up for a couple of those extras, and they noticed which ones were effective for our dog and which ones weren't as effective. They proactively adjusted the play time so that our dog could do what he likes best (which also saved us some money). We also know exactly what to sign up for next time. The kennels are a very good size (4 ft wide by 15 ft deep indoor/outdoor area separate with a wall and doggy door).

We have been kenneling our dogs here for quite a few years. They have always been happy and healthy when we've picked them up. Owners are very nice and personable. They even managed to make my horribly unfriendly toy poodle like them. She hates everyone! They are a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. I highly recommend them. Of note, when one of our dogs passed away from lymphoma in March, they were nice enough to send a condonence card.

Love it! Well taken care of. Great experience. We’ve been using them for almost 4 years. We have a old rescue cat. She needs a lot of extra love. Comes back very happy and adjusted. Owners are very personable and respond quickly. Great prices for the area.

Our 9 year old German Shepherd was recently diagnosed with intestinal cancer and we were afraid to board her. We left her at North Main Pet Lodge for 5 nights and she did fantastic!!! Chris and Colleen make you feel so at ease! We love this place and so does our dog!

Nico and Twilight are crazy about going to Camp Bow Wow- for them it’s like going to Disneyland. The Staff are the best - they give care and fun to my Pups above and beyond, Thanks Camp Bow Wow !

I can tell my dog Willie likes going to Camp Bow Wow. He pulls me in the front door. All the staff members have been super friendly. You can see your dog play via their cameras and also see how much staff cares in giving dogs attention and keeping the facility clean for their canine guests. Georgia the manager took care of our boarding situation. She is a pro who cares about doing things right. I don't travel often, but when I do boarding at Camp Bow Wow will be my first choice. I often go to sporting events since my daughter coaches and I will be getting a play days package for play when I am gone all day. I am a retired person looking for p/t work so when I find a position and if gone all day will take Willie to play. Thank you to all the staff who work so hard. Michael H.

My dog loves his play dates at Camp Bow Wow! He cannot wait to go socialize with all the other dogs. I really like that I can watch him on the camara if I need to check on how he is doing.

Our golden retriever is feeling right at home here whenever he goes for daycare. When he knows we’re going to CBW he starts perking up and his windshield wiper tail starts going at max setting. Glad we found this place.

Your dog will love being here. The staff is very professional and know what they are doing. Your dog will go through an 'interview' so they know how your dog interacts with other dogs. When they let the dogs out for 'play', they bring them out one at a time, so it's not so suddenly overwhelming for them. They bring them in for afternoon nap time, and meal time. The multiple play areas are continuously on live feed, so you can check in with your dog anytime you want from anywhere. They do dog baths and nail trims and have package deals for your to purchase. I only wish they had another location closer to me.

My experiences with Camp Bow Wow have been great! I like the friendly atmosphere and the professionalism of the staff. I like having the opportunity to watch my dog interact with the others. I liked the way the staff handled the dogs (protocols, policies & procedures).

When we drop off our pup, she’s always wiggling with excitement! The staff are wonderful and caring. The prices are reasonable and we always know that our girl is safe and having fun.

Thank you to the Director, Georgia at Camp Bow Wow in Concord Ca. We appreciate you.

A great, safe place to leave your pooch for short or long term. You can watch your fur baby on the video feed to see that they are interacting and ok. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

I love camp bow wow!! The staff really cares about dogs and it really shows. The FOH are very nice and learn the dogs names so they always feel welcomed. The yards are connected to the outside synthetic grass and during hot days there is a pool for the bigger dogs. They always have water and always have a camp counselor in the yard to make sure there is no humping or scuffles. My three dogs go here and even though they aren't the best dogs they take care of them like their own. Try the place out. You won't regret it.

My job has me travel alot. I recently moved from AZ to NV and I didn't have a pet-sitter for my tortoises. I needed to go to Ca for training and Terrell was very respectful when I first messaged him asking if he would watch after my pets for the day until I got out of work since I couldn't check into my hotel until later in the day, and ai didn't want to leave them in the car while I was at work. They pet-sit for dogs, do require proof of vaccines, and would appreciate at least a couple of days notice so they can rearrange their room for the other pets being boarded. The business is run from their home, and they allow the other dogs being boarded to roam with each other, so they aren't caged up in a kennel all day. The day I stopped by they were watching over a newborn puppy along with about 5 other adult dogs. In the past they have watched after birds, but he mainly specializes in dog care. However he will watch over mostly all pets with enough notice. Keep in mind this is a personal, and private pet care service not your typical big franchise or well known business therefore, it is not going to involve any paperwork, and you do pay by cash. In order to know the cost all you do is contact him via his website by researching the name of the business and the option to message him comes up. When I asked for a quote he was pretty responsive, I messaged him around 6:00pm as I was leaving that next day, he got back to me around 8:00pm. If I remember correctly you could also pick up your pet at 11pm as that is the time they close their doors for the business, but you may notice that they do get antsy if you tell them a time, and aren't there minutes before, so you may hear from them via text when time gets closer to the expected pickup time. Otherwise, they seem to care after the pets kindly and are open to following instructions on feedings, pet care, or medications if needed. Best of all they surprised me with a couple of images of my pets while I was at work, as you can see my male tortoise dirtied up his water soon after they gave it to him.

We are really thankful for TJ service. After a last minute call he accepted both our dogs and was patient enough for both. He updates us everyday, highly recommended.

I took my two dogs to Tj's All Per Care for three weeks stay. Terrel went way beyond what he was asked for. He took a good care of my dogs, he kept me informed with daily messages of the dog's activities, he fed the dogs as he was asked. I'm very happy with Terrel's service and honesty. I would definitely trust my dogs to Terrel again

Great place! this was my dogs first time with a boarder and he definitely benefited from it. I was out of town on a work trip for 3 weeks and I didn’t want my dog to be in a kennel majority of the day so this was a perfect fit for us along with becoming more social with dogs. He went to the park everyday and TJ also sent me at least 2 pictures everyday and answered any question I asked on my pup. After I picked up my pup he has been sleeping wherever he can, definitely not the last time we’ll be using his services.

TJ runs his service like a business. We were especially impressed with his professionalism, foresight, and experience. While watching our dogs we encountered an unforeseen travel situation that he was able to accommodate with no issues. The entire time we felt completely comfortable and safe with him watching over our dogs. He provided daily photos and updates on how they were doing. We would definitely go back to TJ and recommend him to anyone looking for a competent, communicative, and professional sitter.

Terrell did an amazing job with my 7 month Doberman. We were in a last minute bind and Terrell was able to take him the day of AND keep my dog for 4 days. Terrell really does know how to handle all of the different personalities which is very important when you have a large dog with a lot of energy and separation anxiety. I noticed that when I picked my dog up that he was calm and leaning against Terrell as we were talking. We were very Appreciative of Terrell's flexibility and Happy with the state of our dog upon our return. We will be returning with no doubt!!!

TJ went above and beyond to accommodate us as we were moving from Japan to Fairfield. He has the most flexible hours for drop off and pick up and is reachable by phone at almost all hours. My dog has never been happier when boarded...probably because she is not locked in a concrete run/cage, instead, she is hanging out in a comfortable home! My dog was due her monthly preventative medication and TJ ensured she received. He takes all his boarding dogs to the local dog park and keeps them actively engaged with other dogs, toys, treats, and human interaction. TJ sent us daily photos/updates and it's clear he loves our dog almost as much as we do. I will be using his service again and again. In fact I'm hoping he will do some doggy daycare too!

TJ is Awesome! Knows how to handle and treat dogs, I have a old German Shepard and a old Jackussel mix. Both dogs came back happy and healthy. TJ takes them to the park, plays with them and let's the do what they want. He is very professional, polite, super responsive to calls and texts and sends pictures to you 2 time a day of your pet. I will recommend TJ to everyone!

It's a great place! It was my dogs first time with a boarder and he difinitely loves it. Tj takes him to the park everyday along with other dogs so this was perfect so he can be more social with other dogs. Tj also sent me 2 pictures everyday. If anyone looking for a sitter, I highly recommend " TJ's All Pet Care Service" Thanks Tj!!!

TJ did a wonderful job taking care of my older labrador! I was in need of last-minute pet care for a day trip for work, and was SO grateful that TJ was able to keep my sweet old dog entertained while I was away. (He even sent me a nice picture of all the fun they had at the dog park!) My dog is pretty energetic and extraverted for an old dog, and he came home super happy and exhausted -- I think dogs that like to run and play with other dogs will have a wonderful time with TJ.

We love DWP as does our 11#’er rescue dog, Orion. We come in the door with him, and he’s off to see his buds! The staff are so kind and caring of their charges. We take Orion here for doggy daycare and overnight boarding. Thank you Team DWP!!

I LOVE this place! Most importantly my dog loves this place! I was so impressed with how I can tell that the owners love what they do and pay such close attention to all dogs under their care. You can tell that they really care and get to know each dog. As an owner of a pure bred cane corso, I really appreciate their ability to lead the dogs, read dog body language, and manage all the dogs. The biggest thing that impressed me about them was when I came back to pick up my Corso, she was walked up to me off leash and behind the gentleman. I've only seen her do that we me as she pulls everyone else like a lead sled dog. I really appreciate all of the attention and care that they give and they both are genuinely excited to see my dog when I drop her off. I've recommended her to everyone who is looking for doggie day care or boarding. Thanks for everything!

I’ve been taking my dog here for about 5 months now since moving to Concord and I have to say this is the best doggy day care I’ve ever taken him to. Despite having 40-60 days a day (on weekdays), Melissa and her colleagues remembered my dog’s name after just one visit! When I pick him up, they usually provide me with an update on who he’s played with and how he did that day. Also, Melissa helped me today with removing a tick off my dog, which I was grateful for! These people know their stuff! Love this place!

Such a wonderful place, I can’t say enough nice things about Dogs Will Play. The staff are so friendly and happy. The facilities are clean and plenty of space for dogs to play. We have an energetic GSP and he LOVES going to dogs will play. When we drop him off he is so excited and runs right back to see his friends, and never looks back to say goodbye. He always comes home happy and tired.

Best place for my giant puppy! She loves going here and she really loves the people that work here. She practically drags me across the parking lot to get into this place. She's a regular for daycare, and we have used the hotel service several times. She's always been a happy camper here.

This is hands down the best daycare/place to board my dog I have found. I've been taking my dog here for more than a year now. They really care about the animals and it shows. My dog is always happy and worn out when I pick him up. I love the stories I get about what he did and who he played with. When I had surgery they were super accommodating and helpful. When I couldn't physically take care of my dog, they gave me a place I could take him, where I knew he was safe and taken care of, and I am extremely greatful. If anyone from Dog Will Play reads this, thank you. 😊

Our doggie used to play here and sometimes we would also board him when we were out of town but he was rejected recently because the new gal said that he was aggressive. Maybe he thought you were the vet or maybe he just didn’t like the way you looked in a hoodie but whatever the reason he was a regular until recently. It was very inconvenient because we were going on vacation and we’re forced to look for an alternative at the last minute! Thanks a lot Dogs Will Play. There are plenty of better options for our little one.

Our fur baby has been going here since she was a puppy (she's 5 yrs old now) and she's still excited every time we drop her off. She's here at least 3x a week and she loves all the staff. We're so happy to have Dogs Will Play as her home away from home. Very highly recommended 👌 …

My dog has been going here for a year now and I feel blessed to have found this place! She and I have been through the changes since it changed owners and I can say I am as happy now as I was since I first brought her here. The staff is amazing...They are friendly, kind, caring and love my dog as much as I do. They truly feel like family to me and to my dog. I could never say enough kind words about all of them. Their grooming is amazing as well. My dog frequently gets her teeth brushed and she also loves getting baths here! Its so nice to pick your dog up, have her tired from a day of playing and clean from a bath!

My "big guy" loves it here. He meets up with his pals for his own vacation while we go on ours. :) Adrienne

Mili and Lauren are great! I can be a helicopter mom when it comes to my frenchie, Bailey, but every time I leave him with Mili and Lauren I feel I’m leaving him in good hands. They do a great job of taking care of Bailey and I feel secure in knowing he’s being well taken care of. They are also my go to doggy sitters when I leave for week long vacation. 😀

Millie is an absolute gem! I'm a traveling nurse and she took in my dog Charlie at the last minute and watched him every weekday for 2 months. I've never needed to use doggie day care before. She put my mind at ease and often sent me photos and videos of Charlie having a great time with the other doggies. I loved that they were all about the same size! I know Charlie loved going there because when we'd pull into the driveway, he started happily barking and wagging his tail. Millie is very kind and flexible and her home is very safe and comfortable for the dogs. It has a large fenced yard and is located right behind a park which Millie takes the dogs for walks at. I can tell that Millie absolutely loves what she does. She is definitely a dog-whisperer. Thanks Millie!!!

WOW. I really feel so lucky for finding Mili to take care of my little Cosmo! I reached out to her the week before becoming a dog owner and wouldn't have been able to feel as good about having a dog as I have if it were not for Walk My Pup. Mili has become one of his absolute favorite people, and I feel so lucky to have a place where he is engaged and safe when I have long work days or am away overnight. She's also a spectacular groomer and makes him look so, so adorable. I recommend her to people all the time and am so grateful to have found her!!! :) Per Cosmo: Mili is my favorite! I love playing with her and the other dogs and cuddling when I need to rest. She's the best!

Mili is truly amazing with dogs. She treats every dog like her own family. She has such patience and can honestly be called a dog whisperer. My pup, Kora, is a forever anxious and shaky chihuahua. She has made her feel safe and now she’s always excited for visits.

Mili always treats her furry clients like they are her own. She is so good with my two pups and they always come out looking so handsome. She takes her time with them to make sure the dogs are comfortable. It’s also fun to see a puppy party every time I go pick them up. I trust her wholeheartedly with my babies. We ❤️ Mili!!!

Mili is the kindest, most genuine, and trustworthy person! She was so amazing with my sweet puppy, incredibly flexible about working with me despite my crazy early and long hours for work, and always understood if I was running late. I know she treated my puppy like he was her own and I felt reassured that he was getting all the love and attention he deserved all day. Mili would often send pictures or cute videos which was nice to brighten my day and so I could see how happy my pup was! Mili even does grooming which is super convenient! Highly recommend Walk My Pup for any boarding, doggy day care, dog walking, and/or grooming needs!!!

Mili was a life saver for me but little did I know, my pup also. We were in the process of moving out of state and needed to start socializing our Mini Schnauzer Macallan at the same time. I reached out to Mili and was fit right in the same evening for a meet and greet. I was nervous because Mac tends to bark and get scared around other dogs and people (for the first 5 seconds and then he's your best buddy but at first it can seem aggressive)...Mili and Lauren welcomed us right in, told me just set him down and he ran off to play immediately. I was so surprised and happy I was in tears. Before I knew it I was there for an hour just chatting with Lauren and Mili and having fun watching the dogs play and learning about their home away from home. Mili loves your pup and had a veye special gift with animals, she also offers grooming and nail clipping. I'm so sad that we are moving, I had finally found the best Doggie Daycare for Mac. We love you Mili and will always stay in touch!!

Milli takes such good care of our pup. I actually think he likes getting his haircut for once! She is super professional and loving. What more could you ask for!?

I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my baby. She is the most reliable and trustworthy person. And she genuinely cares for the animals in her care. My dog was diagnosed with congestive heart failure earlier this year and when Mili has him she makes sure he is calm and kept cool and always has his best interest at heart. I could go on on.

I could not have asked for a better day care than Walk My Pup! Mili is an amazing animal caregiver! She takes great care of my 9-month old pug and aside from that, she is a wonderful human being! Very responsive and flexible! She texts me photos and videos of my doggy at day care and was even able to administer first aid when my pup had an unexpected accident at day care. She is very knowledgeable about dog care and her home is clean and inviting! Definitely recommend her for your day care needs.

Our dog has been hiking with Diablo Dog since 2018, and these adventures are the highlight of his days! He enjoys ample exercise and socialization with other dogs, returning home thoroughly exhausted and happy. We’ve had different walkers over time, and they have all been great with the dogs and incredibly professional. Even after we transitioned to working from home, we maintained his hiking schedule because it keeps him so joyful. We highly recommend Matt and his team for their exceptional care and dedication!

Matt has been boarding and walking our big pitbull terrier for years! Our dog gets a fun energy outlet and much needed socialization. I'm often a little jealous of their hikes around the various parks. Pickup is smooth and fast with our smarthome door lock. The scheduling app works nicely and everyone is nice and communicative about schedule changes. The walkers also send photos of their walk!

We are so thrilled to have found Diablo Dog Walking! We love that our dog gets a full workout at the open space and off leash, her favorite spot. They are very responsive to all requests, prompt with pickups and very affordable. Their staff is absolutely amazing. It is very clear they all love what they do. I recommend Diablo Dog Walking to everyone!

We've been utilizing services for 2 years now: dog walking, grooming, and have had our dog Cooper boarded several times while away on vacation and have always had a great experience. The service is reliable, communication is good and there is consistency with walkers. The other dogs are managed well and are group compatible. Cooper is always very excited when his 'people' show up and the amount of exercise he receives is super helpful for us as a busy family. 5 ⭐for sure! Happy dog days for us!

Our pups have been hiking 3 days a week with Diablo Dog Walking & Training for 6 months now and we love them! All walkers and staff are friendly, even-tempered and knowledgeable. Stella and Dexter are happier and have made many pup friends.

Our dog started hiking with Diablo Dog a few months ago and we’ve had a great experience! She has so much fun and gets super excited every time her walker arrives. They always provide a nice report card with a lot of photos at the end of the hike. She’s also had baths with their groomers and they do an awesome job!

We love Diablo Dog so much! They are always great with our dog Noodle and the walkers are awesome. Noodle loves when they come to pick him up and is always so happy and tired when he gets home. Diablo is also always so accommodating of our requests and late minute scheduling which I really really appreciate as a mom of 2 young kids. Diablo has given our family a way to ensure our dog is getting the exercise and interaction he deserves even when we don't have the time to do it ourselves. A godsend!

I have used Diablo Dog Walking for many years! We love all of their services from dog walks, dog hikes, the Diablo Day Academy training to dog boarding!! Matt is the owner of Diablo Dog Walking. He is a very kind and compassionate man and an animal lover fin his heart! Your pets are his number one priority and he goes above and beyond making sure your loved ones are taken care of with all of his services. We have had interactions with his dog walkers and they have become like family. We recently adopted a puppy and Anthony, Matt’s dog trainer, has worked with her and with us to help the puppy training process go smoothly and easily and also be an enjoyable fun time !! DIABLO DOG WALKING is a Bay Area favorite. Please check out their website 😊

We have been with Diablo Dog for not quite 6 years. Our dog loves his walks and looks forward to them each week. Each week there are photos sent to me of him on his walk. The ability to board with Diablo Dogs when needed is huge as I don't worry about how he is doing. I know he loves his walkers.

Matt and his team at Diablo Dog Walking are the best! We use them for hiking, boarding and grooming and couldn’t be happier. We are so lucky to have such a great business in our community. Amazing with dogs, easy to work with and extremely reliable.

As life races past us, a business trip my wife and I had arrived on the calendar sooner than we anticipated. We called our usual kennel, but they were booked solid. I did some looking around for another kennel with high ratings, and came across Dog Over Breed. They were kind enough to return my call promptly, and said they would have to "vet" my older dog for temperament and ability to listen. This was for her and the other dogs safety. They quickly gave us the thumbs up, we booked the girls that day and left for our trip. Fast forward a few days; and my in-laws, who were set to pick them up, were unable to at the scheduled time. DOB were able to hold on to the girls until my in-laws were able to pick them up. Obviously for an upcharge, but at the standard daily rate. We had them groomed by DOB, and I'm very tempted to even change my groomer to Dog Over Breed. They both came back to us as beautiful as ever. Highly recommended, and will board/groom our dogs there again.

Dog Over Breed has been an amazing place for my dog Lázaro. They do an amazing job ensuring he is always well behaved, always training on how to walk with a pack on and off leash, and their grooming services are stellar. There have been several times when we needed to board Lázaro and Dog over Breed always comes through assisting us with our Furrson. I would give them 1,000 stars if possible! Mo and Vic love what they do and you can tell, my dog Lázaro is always super happy to see them! Best daycare on the east bay hands down!

So glad to have found this hidden gem in my community for my husky! I use their nail trim, bath and grooming services. They are always so accommodating with my schedule, they seem to be able to squeeze me in whenever I call for a last minute appt. I know they do a good job because my dog hates getting her nails trimmed but now she doesn't mind. Mo and staff handle the dogs in their care with lots of patience and love.

My husband and I adopted Maverick from the Contra Costa Animal Shelter in April 2024 and were struggling with training and socialization. I found Dog Over Breed driving by as my work is 2 blocks away. I met with the owners Mo & Vic and was immediately excited to enroll Maverick in their Doggy Day Care! With the constant care, training & guidance, Maverick has become a totally different dog.......... Thank you to everyone at Dog Over Breed! You are a true blessing! We will recommend you to all of our doggy friends!

My husband and I will be retiring in a few years and decided it was time to adopt a pup. We fell in love with a sweet 4 mos. old rescue that turned into the Tasmanian Devil when we brought him home. Roy was aggressive toward us resulting in a few bites and leaving me afraid of him. We had a trainer come in that yelled at the dog, yelled at me, and stressed us all out. Roy had started daycare at Dog Over Breed so we reached out to Mo and Vic for help. They spent a few hours with us on a Saturday morning and focused on puppy training and Puppy Parenting 101. The dog is doing well, I am still a work in progress (but trying). Roy has extreme separation anxiety-cries if I go to the mailbox. Yet he will jump over me, run to Chris and never look back when dropped off for daycare. He loves playing with the other dogs but needs to learn his manners. The training we received at home is reinforced in the daycare program so there is no confusion. We are looking forward to starting him in the group walks when he is ready and have already booked his first overnight boarding. When you read that Mo and Vic are dog whisperers, that is not an exaggeration. You must see them in action to believe it. And I cannot stress enough how peacefully they work. There is no yelling, no hitting, no meanness. The dogs understand what is acceptable behavior. A huge shoutout to Chris and the other staff members that happily greet our pup in the morning. Not sure how we were lucky enough to find this place, but so thankful we did.

I cannot recommend Dog Over Breed highly enough. Mo and Vic are a Godsend. By the time I reached out to them, I was convinced I would never be able to vacation or have strangers into my house. We rescued our Rookie when he was about 8 weeks old. We were given a lot of bad advice in the beginning. We were told to bring him to the vet and not introduce him to any other dogs until he was fully vaccinated. Due to COVID, when we went to the vet, we were not allowed to enter. When I took him back to the vet for his last round of shots, he started freaking out. He was terrified. He was so scared, they actually had me walk him in. When i took Rookie to his first puppy social, he was scared and acting in an aggressive manner. The trainer told me that he was suffering from fear aggression and due to his age, he missed his biologically opportunity to be socialized. She suggested finding a good trainer ASAP. I found a trainer and she helped me with socialization and basic obedience. This was helpful, but Rookie was often times taken away from the pack because they had too many dogs to work with mine. I also struggled having people in my home because Rookie wasn’t comfortable with this. By this point, Rookie was 80lbs. He is a Shepard/pit mix and can be very intimidating when he is barking. Due to some issues at the vet, I ended up switching vets. When I requested Rookie’s records, it appears there was an incident at the vet that triggered his fear and nervousness. After reading his vet report, along with all the negative reinforcement I had received from several trainers, I was afraid of what my dog would do. I was not afraid at home, when it was just us, but definitely did not want to bring him around people. I was not willing to give up on Rookie. If I had surrendered him, he would have been put down. I resided myself to the fact that for the next decade, I would be tied to my house with my sweet, scary looking dog. After a few months, I really needed a vacation. This is when I started to research trainers and boarding that work specifically with more challenging breeds. Dog Over Breed came up in my research. Based on the reviews, I decided to give them a call. Mo answered my call. He asked me what I was looking for. Instead of answering his question, I started to explain Rookie’s story and he immediately stopped me. He asked if he could meet Rookie and form his own opinion. He said he did not want to know anyone else’s opinion before he met Rookie. We made an appointment to meet up. We met in the parking lot of his place. When I got there, Rookie was going ballistic. There were all kinds of people walking by and Rookie was not comfortable. Mo stood back and just ignored Rookie. We chatted a bit as Mo stepped closer and closer to me. Rookie was calm as Mo never acknowledged him. Mo put his hand out for the leash and I freaked out a little, but I handed over the leash. Mo walked away with Rookie. He gave Rookie all the basic commands and Rookie listened. At this point Vic arrived. Rookie was a little bothered at first but quickly calmed down. Mo and Vic both said Rookie was a good, well-trained dog. They said he was not vicious, but he was nervous. They said my fear was a large part of the problem. I completely agreed with them. It was then that my training and Rookie’s socialization began. We have been going to Dog over Breed for about 10 months. We do daycare and overnight boarding. In that time, Rookie has become more comfortable around other dogs and people. We can now have company over and I have been to Hawaii twice. Mo and Vic have taught me so much. The most important lesson they have taught me is that Rookie will never be a mellow, easygoing dog. He is who he is and that is okay. It is okay to not bring him around everyone that comes into my house. It is okay if he is uncomfortable to put him in his crate. It is okay to trust myself with Rookie. Dog Over Breed gave me back my life. Mo and Vic and Chris are phenomenal with Rookie. They are good and what they do and I feel fortunate to have found them.

Dog Over Breed has been with us since we first got Brooklyn. It’s been almost 5 years and they treat her like she is their own. They’ve done an amazing job with her socializing and dog training, and we are lucky we found them when we did! Brooklyn gets happy every time she sees them. For anyone needing assistance with their dog, I highly recommend Dog Over Breed!

Our granddog needed to be de matted and she received the best care and came out looking fabulous. It was a huge job and the owners gave Dakota breaks throughout the process.

Great group of dog experts. These guys understand how the dogs think, what motivates them, and how to change their behavior. My cattle dog mix is very much a 1-person dog, but he loves his pals at Dog Over Breed and is better behaved with them. As is often the case, it’s been my inconsistencies as the pet owner that my dog was taking advantage of and getting confused by, so these guys also helped to “train” me on what my pup expects/needs to be his best self. They have supported us with walks, which are more than the typical walk around the block for 30 min you often get. They pick up and drop off the dogs and it turns out to be a few hour adventure for them. Doggie daycare is well managed at their facility as is grooming (bath, nails, defur, brushing, etc.). Communications and timeliness are spot on. Thanks guys!

Dog over breed has been an absolute blessing to us! When we first moved to the area I spent months looking for a reputable dog trainer and dog sitting service for our reactive pitbull. After our first meeting, we knew we finally found someone that we could trust to help us. Mohit and his team not only helped our dog live up to his potential but helped us become better dog owners! Our dog can now walk calmly on a leash without reacting to others, he is able to socialize with other dogs in a friendly way and we are no longer anxious taking him on walks. Dog over Breed is the only place we trust to board our dog. When I tell our dog we are going to Uncle Mohit’s he gets the zoomies and waits at the front door ready to go. Thank you guys for everything! I highly recommend them! You will not regret it!

I started using Vallejo Pet Services to exercise my Pyr pup so that I could have quality time with my senior hospice Great Pyrenees. All of us have benefitted beyond expectations! My senior Pyr has gotten stronger and gained weight living a quality life. My developing Pyr is having fun bonding with his special walkers. I had a special harness made for Kaipo who enjoys pulling/running Tye on skateboard. EVAN IF YOU WALK YOUR DOG, utilizing Vallejo Pet Services several times a week will increase your dogs development and self confidence. Tye takes great pains to choose walkers and pair them with the appropriate dogs. Vallejo Pet Services will continue to be an integral part of our lives evan as my senior dog transitions. Sarah continues to run a professional buisness on a heartfelt note. We love and appreciate what Vallejo Pet Services has brought to ALL of our lives.

Completely satisfied and happy with these folks! My dog and I have been using Vallejo Pet Services for about 2 months now for his daily weekday afternoon break. Having a big coonhound mix, generally we have been ambivalent about hiring a dog walker unless we really know them but Tye is knowledgeable and experienced with larger dogs. Scheduling is easy, as well as getting a hold of someone, even last minute. Recommended.

I lost my dog walker/pet sitter of 4 years recently and wanted to try someone new for my pet family of two dogs and two cats. Tye and his fellow workers are very dependable, on time, and my pets love the service. The application that VPS uses has been very helpful in scheduling and communication issues. Usually, I receive pics of walks and pet servicing that are of professional quality. I now have pictures of my semi-feral cats. Great company. Totally a company of pet lovers!!!

Vallejo Pet Services staff are attentive, caring, and give attention to details. My dog loves them! I feel safe with her in their care. As an added bonus, I get a text message about each walk! Professional, with a sense of humor! A great company.

I used Vallejo Pet Services a few times and they're wonderful! I have a senior dog who's blind with lots of meds and a nervous/scared dog who doesn't like too many people. Tye (owner) has done an amazing job with them. He also gives excellent communication and updates about the dogs each visit. Please use their services and support their business!

Vallejo Pet Services began walking my Elijah in early 2018. They provide great service and care. I wouldn't trust anyone with his care. Elijah begins waiting for his Walker at 8am. He gets depressed if I cancel his walks on my work from home days. My neighbors probably think I am lazy and crazy for having walks when I am home. Elijah goes on a new adventure every day. He has seen more of Vallejo than I have. I highly recommend Vallejo Oet Services.

They came through when my pet sitter canceled a day before I had to leave town for an emergency. They were so good with my animals. My dog really took to Ty and she doesn't like anyone. They sent pics of every visit and took in the mail. They really helped me out of a jam.

These guys always take great care of our tribe! Cat, dog, fish and chickens! They handle it all very professionally and even send pics do we don't miss our flock!

Found via generic online search. Impressive back-end CRM tool, fast, intelligent and dialed-in responses to my inquiries at all levels and at all times. Scheduling, adjusting, billing and receivables are streamlined and efficient . So far, walkers appear to be genuinely caring for the welfare of the pet. From my perspective, I feel I am getting a fair return on my money invested.

We believe this review was left in error. Laura was an applicant for our dog walking position. She did not join our team as a walker, and she did not use our services as a client.
