Dog Sitters in Casablanca, Riverside

The owner Lori is exceptionally caring with all of her fur babies! When we went on our 7 day vacation we received humorous and heartfelt video and photo updates every single day. In each photo our dachshund was smiling so big all of his teeth were showing! She is organized, professional and wonderful to work with. We are so relieved that there is a local boarder/day care program that only takes in dogs 20lbs and under! Thank you Lori for being a trustworthy person to leave our family members with! I would recommend to anyone!

Lori is AMAZING! She takes care of all dogs like if they were hers, thats how much she cares and loves them. I'm so happy we found Bonzais Bark because my Lucas loves to go on play date and boarding.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Bonzai's doggy daycare!!! Rosie has found lifelong friends and learned how to get along with all kinds of dogs. Lori is amazing and has set up such a well organized place for fun. Rosie has also stayed with her long term and thoroughly enjoyed herself. So glad I found her when we moved to town.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST DOG SITTING EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD! Seriously... I can't give one complaint. Laurie would message me pictures throughout the day- not a bunch but enough. My dog seemed happy and clean. When I picked him up he was not overheating or thirsty. He didn't rush to me like he needed to he saved. Laurie was responsive to messages, she seems to love dogs and happy with taking them! Her house was clean and smelled great. I mean it's like everything I looked for was done exceptionally well. I will for sure be taking Indy back there!

Lori was absolutely the best person we could have dreamed of to leave our 16 year old miniature Labradoodle Dee Dee with!!! We were in Palm Desert for 12 days and knew we were going to be playing many rounds of golf along with a day trip to Disneyland. We really didn't want to leave Dee Dee in the house we were staying at all alone for 8+ hours a day so my husband did some research ahead of time and found Bonzai's Bark. After reviewing Lori's website, everything LOOKED great, so we arranged for a meet and greet the day before we actually wanted to start leaving Dee Dee with Lori. LOVED her, her backyard and indoors for the pups and her "dog sense" ... she has a total understanding of what they really did need while they were away from their owners ... we felt very comfortable leaving Dee Dee the next day while we played golf. Lori texted us several times, throughout the day, to say Dee Dee was doing fine and even sent pictures! The rest of the trip we continued to use Lori and even had Dee Dee spend the night on the day we drove to Disneyland and back. She was at Lori's a total of 6 times over 12 days ... She did great! Lori is awesome ... we wish we could find someone like her back home here in Federal Way, WA .... thanks again, Lori, for being our dog's best friend!

Lori does an amazing job when watching our furry children. On extended stays, my wife and I can enjoy our time together without having to worry about our boy’s safety or well being. I highly recommend using BonZai’s Bark for a day stay or longer.

Thank you so much Lori, for caring for my precious fur baby. Lori is very professional, kind, loving and my dog was well cared for. She even sent pictures throughout the week letting me know how much fun they were having. BonZai’s Bark should be everyone’s go to place for dog boarding, and or doggy daycare. Thanks again.

I have been bringing my dog to Lori for over a year and can’t say enough great things about her! I travel often and leave my little love with her for quick weekend trips or weeklong stays. He loves it there! Lori is so loving and fun with my dog, and is great at communicating. I get updates on his day and awesome pictures that let me know he is safe and happy. She is so kind, easy going and very flexible. I am always at ease when I leave my boy with her, and I know he loves going to see her. She’s the best! I highly recommend her services.

Lori is amazing! I have been utilizing her service for almost a year and have been super pleased!! I always have peace of mind knowing that my pup is receiving the best care and having fun too! Lori is very good at sending pics which I always look forward to! I highly recommend using her service. You won’t be disappointed!!

Lori is amazing!! I had serious anxiety about leaving my 8 month old puppy, but she took all that away. Tbone spent a week with her while we vacationed. Thanks to Lori's loving care we all had a great time, especially Tbone. He came home one happy healthy pup! She taught him how to interact with other dogs, an invaluable lesson. He will be spending time at Miss Lori's on a regular basis! I dropped him off today for the afternoon and he ran right to her, he couldn't wait to give her kisses!

Debra, of Loving Touch Pet sitting watched by cat while I was out of the country for about a week. She did a good job in keeping me up to date on any issues that arose, and took good care of my pet. She followed my instructions well and I would use her in the future. Debra’s a nice person and easy to work with. You can relax when she cares for your pet.

Loving touch has been taking care of our furry family for over ten years, during countless road trips and family vacations, etc… It is so comforting to know that when we are away, our pets are safe at home and being well cared for. Thank you Debey and crew, we love you for loving our pets!

We have used Debra several times and we couldn’t be happier. Debra goes above and beyond with updates and photos while we’re away. We highly recommend her service . Amy Q

Can't speak highly enough about Debra and her service. I have 2 cats and she and the kitties have become great friends over the last 4 years. Debra has always given me peace of mind when having to leave them for a trip.

I have used Loving Touch Pet Sitting since I relocated to LaQuinta 3 years ago. Debra has been a lifesaver and is pivotal in helping us care for our elderly pup. Her prices are fair, her flexibility is beyond amazing and the love she gives out little one is precious. Literally we would be lost without her!

We love Debi and her team and so do our two kitties. She has great credentials and has never disappointed us in any way. We unconditionally recommend her. We trust her!

Hands down the best doggy daycare in the valley. I love this place. The staff are always so professional and super friendly. You can tell everyone who works there truly enjoys it. They take such great care of all the dogs. I love the structure and giving the dogs a safe place to play and socialize. It’s also fun to be able to check them out on the pupcams. I always have a piece of mind knowing that I have a safe place to bring my dog whether it’s for daycare or boarding. I highly recommend them. They also have great training programs that will teach you to better understand your dogs needs and give you the confidence to be a pack leader.

Village pup has been a savior of a place for our sweet Archie. They show so much love and concern for their animals and are a very efficient and well run organization. Few places in the desert do this so well. Staff has all been very friendly and create a very familial atmosphere. We take our dog here for both grooming and daycare, he absolutely loves it here and so do we.

It makes me very disappointed to even write this review, But we made Village Pup in LA Quinta our main spot for any dog grooming needs until this last visit we will never visit again and heres the major reason why. First off I originally scheduled a full grooming and when I got there they said I was scheduled for a best bath which I didn't do. Me not wanting to reschedule another three weeks ahead I asked if they can still do the full grooming I originally asked for. To me, they seemed bothered that I even asked that and were trying to talk me out of it. My dog grows a lot of hair so I wanted to do a trim and a deshed of his first layer of his coat. The groomer who also has her own Pyrenees seemed very bothered and annoyed that I wanted to do the full grooming because it would interfere with her break. She comes out and is also trying to talk me out of the grooming and just to do the best bath, I stayed persistent and insisted that they do the full grooming my dog needed it. After some time they agreed but were really annoyed. The groomer noticed we had tried to give him a trim ourselves and said she would try to even it out to which I agreed and said that that would be great. A couple hours later I pick him up and was completely utterly shocked, instead of trimming him they completely shaved him and charged me almost $200 for it. I shouldn't of payed for it but I did and I even TIPPED THE GROOMER WHO RUINED MY DOGS BEAUTIFUL COAT. I will never use this establishment again for the way they treated me and my dog. My dog will never have the same coat again because of the groomer who took her bad day/frustrations out on my dog. Ever since ive brought him home from his "grooming" he hasnt been playful he just sleeps and looks sad like something valuable has been taken from him. If you take your dog here be cautious because they might do it to you too and double charge you both the best bath and the full groom. IF I COULD GIVE ZERO STARS I WOULD 100 PERCENT!!!!!! Here are some before and afters of my dog. Go at your own risk.

Barklee has been going since he was able to have his supervised play time- he asks me to go - barking and getting his leash until I take him. He sits upright and knows the route he starts crying as we turn the corner as he know he is going and just gets soo excited. I only wish my kids would have acted this way. Would of made life easier for a working mom🤪🤪🙃 u won’t regret it! And know some dogs r just not up for daycare and that’s ok too😘

I've been taking my dogs here for years and love it! Dog safety 5 🌟 Friendly environment 5 🌟 Grooming 5 🌟 Training 5 🌟 Honestly, I've not seen any other dog daycare/boarding place that offers as much as the pup. The staff are so kind and love each pup that walks through the doors as their own. They do their best to work as a team to make a fun-filled day for the pack.

2 Very Happy pups. This was our first time here for grooming. The staff treated it just like I was leaving my child for daycare. Very thorough with consents and questionnaires. The staff is so friendly and you can tell they all genuinely love the pups and their job. My babies were nervous it being their first time here but when I picked them up I could tell they were treated well and they left very happy 🤍. I would give more than 5 stars if it were an option. I highly recommend Village Pup!!!

Since they don’t make it public knowledge on the website, they don’t board dogs who aren’t already part of their day care crew. If you’re from out of town or you don’t want to spend extra cash on day care, don’t bother. Doesn’t affect me, but they also turn away any pit/mastiff breeds or mixes regardless of temperament.

I LOVE this place because my fur son does. I know he loves it because I get to check in on him on the cameras throughout the day and can see him having a great time. The staff is super friendly and it's always a pleasure interacting with them. Excellent customer service and a safe, fun environment for my pup to socialize. What more could you want?!

Having people you don't know care for your animal is always a nerve wracking experience. This is not the case with everyone at Village Pup. They take the absolute best care of your dog(s). I recently had him bathed and my gosh, did he come back looking as handsome as ever! I love dropping him off there for a day away (he loves it too! I can't keep him out of the pool!)

I'm so anxious to get our pup in there. These people are just wonderful. They gave our girl a chance without us to interact with other pups and she wasn't happy. She just had too much separation anxiety. I really appreciate the fact that they want to make sure our baby girl is comfortable more than getting money. We will be continuing her socialization and we will take her back. I think this facility is absolutely fantastic! It was so welcoming and incredibly CLEAN. Great facility that I am sure I will be part of for years to come.

Mini had her 1st boarding experience in her 13 years. She was treated like the princess she is with her own room, plenty of other small dogs to visit with the windowed roo off the lobby. She was groomed ($60) and a very happy girl when

Biggie loves The Grand Paw. He comes weekly for daycare and most recently was boarded for over 2 weeks. The staff know him by name and always greet him with excitement. He comes home exhausted from playing with his friends and always looks forward to returning. Thank you to all the staff for all you do.

Our Sasha loves it here and I feel comfortable sending her. They make sure every dog’s vaccines are up to date, even if coming in for grooming only. They also do a temperament test with the new dogs to test how they behave with others. We have been so happy with the level of detail and care.

Pandemic Up Date-The Grand Paw is doing a pretty good job as they work through the issues associated with the COVID Pandemic. They now pick up you dog from the car, you do not go inside at all. They bring your pet out to you in the evening, so it is more-or-less touchless. They also have both masks and sanitizer out in the parking area so that you can sanitize if you like. Good job. But I miss the little shop and talking to the folks while waiting for our dog, Bailey to drag out the poor lad that has to tear him away from his play date. This is the doggy daycare and boarding place in the East Coachella Valley. It has nice facilities and reasonably good hours. They are not real flexible on times and policies. Not a deal as far as pricing goes but seem to take reasonable care of the pets. They have a little pet gift shop, mostly dog oriented full of overpriced things you can’t live without. The grooming function is not the best or least expensive. Ask about purchasing multiple use packages. Tuesday and Thursday they have pool time for Fido if your dog is so inclined. Separate small and large dog areas. They charge $25 bucks to qualify your dog’s behavior before you can bring him. Have all your shot information ready.

What a wonderful staff. I feel so comfortable and trust them to babysit my four legged family member. When leaving pets behind when circumstances require a helping hand - This is the place!

Our dog spent 5 days a this facility and he was bitten, wounds open when we picked him up. We were not told, until we contacted the facility, and replied with a typical template to respond to a complaint. Until today not a curtesy response. Disappointed, and furious, above all the rate charged, you will think your pet will be taken care of.

Brian, Ricky, and the rest of the staff are amazing. My wife and I have a 20 year relationship with this business and Brian and Ricky. We can’t say enough good things about the customer service and how they treat our pups. I wish I could give them 10 stars

Great Facility! We went in a week prior to our pup staying there for a tour and a temperament test, the staff was very friendly and welcoming. When we dropped our pup off for her stay she was excited to be there again. She was happy when we picked her up and quickly fell asleep when we got home. The grand paw is reasonably priced and I highly recommend! Thank you Grand paw for taking care of Cocoa!

I was so happy with The Grand Paw and so were my two kittys. They had a comfy room with plenty of time to play and lounge in. Also they posted pictures of my babies for me to see so I could know 5hey were doing well as I missed them. I will definitely board with them again when I need to in the future.

If you have large dogs this is THE place. Our dogs are bigger and they absolutely love it here. There is plenty of space for them to run around. Any staff we’ve ever encountered is always so friendly and seems to truly love being around dogs! It definitely seems like our dogs’ happy place. Our dogs have never been sick after a boarding and they always come home clean and EXHAUSTED! It is worth every penny. We also love just dropping them off for a play day. Swim days are also awesome. They have an in the ground pool and one of our dogs absolutely loves it!

Lauren is awesome, we are lucky we found her for our two dogs. She has been fantastic with both dogs especially our highly anxious one. She has watched them for the day and boarded them over night. They cant wait to get out of the car when we drop them off.

Lauren watched my dog (Bruno) for several weeks. She kept me updated with pictures and text messages on Bruno’s daily activities and overall wellbeing. Bruno looked fantastic when I picked him up, and I will not hesitate to have Lauren watch him again. She is very knowledgeable and genuinely cares about the animals she takes care of.

I have been using Lauren for about 5 years and she is the BEST!! I just love her enthusiasm and joy that she gives to all her dogs. With two previous dogs they would spend the night and also just go to day care. With Peaches - our current Cavapoo - she can't wait to get out of the car and go into Laurens house. We've boarded her but also use the daycare for a day of golf! Wouldn't go anywhere else!!!!

We have used Lauren multiple times to pet sit, This time we were gone quite a bit longer than the previous times and she made sure to give our dogs extra love an extra attention to fill the void of us being gone. We appreciate Lauren’s love for animals and The attention to detail she gives while caring for our fur babies. Thank you Lauren!

Lauren is fantastic, she goes the extra mile with your special one. Scruffy has emotion needs and has meds and she knows how to make him feel happy. She lets him snuggle on the bed with her which he loves. She understands his needs and I know he is in loving care. She keeps me posted on how he is doing. Which is great. I also know she makes sure everyone has their shots up to date. You will be very happy and so will your pet. 👍🏻👍🏻Mirelle and Scruffy

Lauren has taken care of our two rescued mixes for several years ( plus an extended family member’s pup. ). Sometimes it’s just an overnight or a long weekend, but we’ve used her up to a few weeks at times. We feel so comfortable knowing that she is extremely experienced and she is even helpful with solicited advice when they aren’t there and we have a training issue. She has had to give our pups medication and has no problems contacting vets if needed. Our pups might be a little spoiled by the attention they receive when they are in her care. If you were to ask our pups about their experiences, we think they would both give her two paws up!

Lauren is beyond the best! We rescued our dog, Max, as a puppy after spending over a month in a shelter. Lauren not only has given Max a safe and fun place to stay, but also has given us great advice on training him. We know Max loves Lauren as much as we do….he races to her door as soon as we pull up!

We have 2 dogs, both 8 year old Akita mixes. Lauren has been a part of their lives in one way or another since we adopted them when they were puppies. Lauren is extremely reliable, consistent and always goes above & beyond. She’s easy to communicate with and very attentive. She has tons of safety measures, plans and precautions in place to ensure any animal on her care is safe, well cared for and (most importantly) comfortable and loved. Her home and yard is always clean. She’s helped care for our dogs on many occasions, boarding them in her home or doing drop-ins at our home. Even providing behavioral help. And, we’ve witnessed her board and work with many different types of animals over the years. At some point, one of our dogs developed severe allergies. Lauren was instrumental in helping us work with a vet to diagnose the problem, better understand our dog’s illness and even create a long term treatment plan for him. She’s still attentive to his allergies and sensitivities when she cares for him. It’s not just about pet sitting. She’s extremely gifted and truly has such a passion for animals and their overall well-being. We jokingly call her Dr. Doolittle, but she really is so in tune with animals’ needs. Her knowledge and expertise cannot be matched.

Lauren has been taking care of my eighteen month old Boston Terrier twice a seek, since he was 7 months old and she has been wonderful, helping me with training and giving him plenty of play time and exercise. She is always more than happy for a drop in visit, for cats or dogs, and her boarding service is wonderful, as I never have to worry about his care. As I work fulltime, I don't know what I would do without her help and loving care of my active little dog.

We HIGHLY recommend! Lauren is incredibly knowledgeable, caring, and attentive to all of the animals in her care. The boarding facilities are clean, spacious and comfortable, providing a home-like environment with an incredible grass yard that the pups love! We also appreciate receiving updates and photos which bring smiles and peace of mind knowing all is well. The dog walking and pet drop in services are also top-notch, and Lauren always goes above and beyond to ensure our animals receive the attention they need while we are away. We trust Lauren completely with the care of the rescue animals in our care as well as our personal pets and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe environment AND a knowledgeable and loving pet sitter.

Great place to have to drop off your dog for the day. You have to drop off by 11 am or you cannot which it sometimes cumbersome. Half day is $28 for under 6 hours. My dog is not the happiest here due to the room is full of dogs and she is not comfortable like that. My dog just walks around with the staff. They have an awesome set up of a Pup can that you can open the app and see your pup. What a blessing;) to see your dog even if you know she’s a little stressed but safe. But sometimes I need to do things like doctors appointments and need a place for her to be safe. The staff are great and seem to love the doggies.

WOW! I have nothing but positive things to say about this company. Staff, so nice friendly and informative. Pricing is very affordable. They provide the perfect solution for my puppy when I need to take my special needs kids on trips. AND most important my dog loves it there!

A friend of mine suggested I bring my rescue here to help socialize him. He was scared or wary of everyone. It took time and while there is no official training they took special care to help meet his needs. The staff are all wonderful with the animals. Going in to see my boy love on Mandy and the other staff members makes me so happy that he can socialize now with both animals and humans. The staff are so great and so caring your dog is in the best hands possible. Tammy runs a wonderful business and I feel that their attention to me is as wonderful as their caring for the animals. I honestly could not say enough about everyone. I should also mention that the environment is impeccably clean. They have an indoor and outdoor area but are weather conscious so when temps are to high they shut that part down and bring them all into the air conditioning. They do not cage the dogs who are boarding but let them sleep where they want to in their sleep room and staff is there with them all night. Even the grooming is good and they pay special attention to the dog and owners needs. I forgot to mention that they plan fun seasonal events for the dogs and you can peak in on them during the day online with their pup cams. Now my boy has a girlfriend and best play pal. Never thought I would ever see that happen but because of village pup my boy is a happy normal pup.

Best doggy daycare/boarding facility ever!! This is my first time away from my puppy for a long period of time and I just received a check in text with pictures about how my dog is doing! Brought me tears of joy to know that he is being loved and taken care of! Best place ever!! Highly recommend! Thank you Auntie Ashley for taking care of my baby!

Excellent Daycare and boarding for dogs. Great owners. Terrific caring staff. Reliable every time.

My two girls, Bella and Annie love daycare and boarding at the Village Pup in Palm Desert. Great caring staff and lots of furry friends.

Our dog loves it there. It's one of the few places she's been and didn't try to follow us out of the door when we leave. It's nice to look at the pup cam and see her playing with other dogs and people. I highly recommend The Village Pup.

My dog loves going to Village Pup. It is clean, the staff is caring and my dog is safe. In summer they have cooling areas. Been taking my dog there for 2 years

Wouldn’t trust anyone else with my fur babies! Great staff that obviously adore our pups!! It’s hard enough to leave them but I get a lot of comfort that they are with “family”.

Great in every aspect from accommodations to the people who all love dogs. Our golden retriever is very social and absolutely enjoys her stays here. I can’t say enough about the entire staff as they have been so helpful, provide fantastic communication, and genuinely take an interest in your pup to get to know all about them and what they enjoy.

Barkingham Pet Hotel is the best place for grooming my Yorkie Terrier Charlie Terrones loves it here, Jacqueline Fields is a top notch groomer Charlie and I highly recommend. All the employees are cheerful and gentle with my little dog he fills safe and treated with care when here. I drive 15 miles and worth every mile. Thank you, for so kind to my pet.

I boarded my German Shepherd for 2 nights. I checked on him several times via phone during his stay. They said he was fine just being a little picky about eating. When I picked him up he was so sick I had to take him to the vet that day. Vomiting continuously, diarrhea, very low energy. I will NEVER take or recommend Barkingham "luxury" pet hotel nor use their services again. It took him over 2 weeks to recover.

Our Min Pin/Chihuahua mix loves Barkingham Pet Hotel! And we love it too. Our Autumn gets the best care and lots of time to run around and play time with other dogs her size. I also am very impressed with the security of facility. I don't have to worry about Autumn getting loose and running away.

I was so nervous about leaving my little boy for boarding. Being that he’s never stayed overnight anywhere because he suffers form separation anxiety. But I have to say he had a wonderful time, he played and got lots of love and cuddles. Sabrina sent me updates with cute photos of how he was doing. I so appreciate that she did that, it made me feel so much better about leaving him in their care. I would 100% recommend them for boarding. Thank you everyone for taking such excellent care of Hershey and a special thanks to Sabrina who has always been so kind and sending updates.

Brian and Bella have always done very well boarding with Barkingham Palace… Brian’s tenure started when he was rescued by a local organization and was being socialized in preparation for being adopted. Kudos to Barkingham for the service they provide to numerous animals here in the Coachella Valley! 💖🐩🐕 …

We used to love this place, but had a bad experience where a groomer actually clipped the end of our Yorkie’s ear off then tried to arrange the fur so it wouldn’t show. She said she “nicked” it. This was 2 years ago and we’ve never been back. Had another bad experience where their groomer was late for work and they rescheduled us, then when we showed up at the new time they tried to say we were late. Sorry. Bad consumer service and care.

I can’t say enough about Barkingham. I’ve been using them for about 10 years. And always have had a great experience. My dogs can’t wait to get to go inside. And they are always greeted with kisses. And all the incredible people that work there.

My two dogs loved this place. It was so beautiful and clean. The background of the mountains behind them. It’s like dogs playing in paradise! My dogs were running in and When I pick them up they were very happy. The staff was so nice there, i highly recommended Barkingham pet hotel in Palm Springs! When we go back we will definitely bring them every day there. A plus!

I don’t live in the area but I will make the drive to drop off my precious Nyla cause she can’t just go anywhere and she has to feel comfortable with the place. I love that her room had a camera so I can watch her.

We boarded our Maltese here in the past and no issues. He is 12 years old now and they informed us that they will not board him any longer as he is a "senior dog"'. This is an amazingly myopic and mean spirited policy that does not take into account the varying aging process for different breeds, not to mention large versus small breeds and the health of the dog itself. Given what they charge, this is kind of obnoxious and arrogant.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Fetch!!!!!! LOVE Kathleen!!!! we travel between San Diego and Palm Springs a couple times a month. We have a terrier mix and a (freak) labordoodle. Very demanding dog to care for. If you own one then you know what I mean. Put it this way......If the color of the dog food is off...the dog will loose all its hair from stress! haha maybe not that bad but both my dogs love Kathleen. I have found Fetch has gone above and beyond in every way possible. No reason to look elsewhere. Thank You and keep up the good work.

Fetch! is ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! I have loved working with Kathleen and her team (and felt this way since the very first email response I received, just minutes after sending an intro message) for the past few months. 100% professional, and a truly dedicated and caring experience from start to finish of each visit. Not only do I trust the Fetch! team with caring for my fur babies like they're their own, I have the added bonus of feeling like my home is well-cared for. Bringing in the mail, watering plants, making sure all doors and windows are locked; this is just the tip of the iceberg of what this team does in their commitment to excellent client service. I receive consistent texts confirming visits, and the photos and personalized videos of my pets are not only adorable, but totally put my mind at ease when I'm far away from them. It's as though Kathleen and her team can read my mind, and know just how to calm my fears about leaving my pets at home. I tried other pet-care services in the Coachella Valley, and simply wasn't satisfied with the quality of the care my animals and my home received. With Fetch!, my expectations are exceeded every single time I hire them. I gladly and wholeheartedly recommend Fetch!

Fetch! Pet Care of Palm Desert is perfect in every way. If you want the best for your pet and your peace of mind, please contact Kathleen, owner of Fetch! in Palm Desert. Her professionalism is awesome; her knowledge of pets is complete; her outlook is compassionate; she is well-organized and perfectly reliable. She will have your pet's best interests to heart and will provide outstanding care. Your pet will love the time with Fetch! and will come back to you balanced and attentive. You will be comfortable knowing your pet is receiving quality care in every way. Our family and puppy Sophia love Kathleen, Hanna and Ziggy! They are simply the best!!! Highly recommended.

I recently moved to Palm Desert and travel quite a bit for work. When I reached out to Kathleen I immediately knew from our phone call that my two cats would be in good hands! Kathleen and Kyla are professional, thorough, flexible, compassionate and really focus on the details to make sure my cats and I are comfortable while traveling. Their communication before, during and after is wonderful. Text messages and pictures are sent, which really helps make my travel less stressful knowing my cats are being well taken care of. Thank you Fetch! Pet Care team for being so good to my girls!

I was very nervous to use a pet sitting company that I've never used before but Fetch was a wonderful surprise!!! Spoke w/Kathleen on the phone...very professional, made an appointment to come to my home & meet the dogs. Casey came with her who actually did the pet sitting. My dogs instantly loved Casey! Fetch not only took great care of my dogs...I now have peace of mind knowing that I can travel out of town and my dogs are happy & safe. Highly recommend 🐾

I love Fetch and it allows me to really enjoy my visits with family & know my pet is in GREAT care. I love the communication, the visit photos & journal, the quality of care and the app! I love Fetch and would recommend the company and employees to all my friends, family & neighbors. Your pets are in great care with Mandy, Kathleen & the Fetch staff!

I am so impressed by this service and level of detail, care, ease of scheduling!! Most importantly its so personalized and I felt completely at ease leaving my puppy in the care of Kathleen and he LOVES her! I'm admittedly a crazy dog mom and I felt completely comfortable from Kathleen's initial visit to meet Jake at my house. This company stands out beyond any other I've used/interviewed. She sends you notes about their walk, pictures, and a map of where they walked. Thank you Kathleen!!

I have used Fetch for about three years now to walk my dog when I go on vacation. Kathleen and her staff are the best. Very reliable! They now have a pet portal so I receive updates when I am on vacation as to how Lea is doing along with a picture! Thank you Kathleen for taking care of our girl!!

Our cat caregiver is Kathleen and she is great. She sends pictures of our boys from every visit so we know she is taking good care of them. They’re quite shy so initially she had to look for them. Eventually they got to know her and now sometimes even come out to say hi on their own. Scheduling is quick and easy. Fetch was recommend to me by a neighbor and I couldn’t be happier with the service.

What an amazing group of animal lovers. Kathleen the owner is uber accommodating and always so nice and professional. My dog walker, Auntie Jane, she’s a member of the family and I would trust nobody more than Jane. Ethel loves Jane as her own buddy. Not to bad to leave your loved pooch with someone you trust so much. I give a 20+ star rating. Above and beyond.

Valerie is hands down the best trainer I have ever worked with, and I’ve worked with four or five over the years. She literally saved our rescue dog’s life, who came to us as a two year old mostly untrained afraid, and smart enough to get into trouble. We couldn’t leave her alone or take her most places when Valerie met her. Fast forward four months, and she is running off leash at the beach, happily greeting strangers and playing with other dogs. Valerie understands dogs, including fear aggressive dogs like ours, and calmly teaches the techniques that allow you to understand and train your dog. She never judges and has an answer for everything. We are eternally grateful, and recommend her to everyone we know with dogs. Thank you, Valerie!

We had the pleasure of working with Valerie at our home for one session to get help with our dogs pulling. She spent a great amount of time getting to know our Biggie and showing us how to walk him. We now enjoy our walks and hikes. We then signed him up for her 6 week group training and they were so educational. Our dog had previously failed group classes somewhere else because of his high energy so we were nervous but she accepts all dogs and he ended up doing great this time around thanks to her. Highly recommend.

Valerie’s dog training is wonderful. She pays such attention to each dog in the class, and has lots of fun (even with difficult dogs). I commend her for her patience, and support of helping train my English Springer Spaniel…..highly recommend Val and Best Paw Forward!!! Sally and Abby 🐾🐾 …

We rescued a dog that had been raised for meat overseas. She had obviously been abused and had some serious and concerning “triggers”. She stayed with Valerie for a couple of weeks and Valerie was able to work miracles. Leah is now a happy, smart, funny and confident member of the family. Valerie’s calm, loving, positive and professional training style is amazing!

We adopted two rescue dogs who were badly in need of some training (or was it us :) Valerie helped us with private training which was a great success, some noticeable changes even after the first lesson. We continued with a course of group training which was also beneficial and fun. Result we have two well trained young dogs.

Valerie came to our house to help us with a few issues we were having with our new dog. She showed us several techniques that we will continue to practice on our own. The dog made amazing progress in an hour. Valerie uses positive reinforcement techniques.

AAAAA++++++ Valerie took an out of control 80-pound "puppy" and an overwhelmed owner and created a loving, easy-going home. She did it by reminding me to be firm first and show appreciation next. Where other dog trainers had relied on me giving the puppy treats (the equivalent of giving my children candy right before bed), Valerie taught me that my affection was my dog's greatest treat. We have developed into a calm home and have now added another large puppy to the pack using Valerie's methods and some additional private training. IF YOU'VE TRIED EVERYTHING, CALL BEST PAW

I found a rescue Chihuahua who turned out to be a stubborn little guy when it came to utilizing the doggie door. I called Best Paw Forward and spoke to Valerie. Rather then just trying to get money from me, she initially tried to give me training tips over the phone which I tried with no luck. Eventually Valerie came over and within an hour she had him going through the doggie door, sue made my life easier. I highly recommend Best Paw Forward for all your dog training needs.

Valerie is a true professional with a great depth of knowledge that only comes from experience. Before she even came to our home she spent a lot of time on the phone with me to better understand our dogs personalities, quirks and temperaments as well as what we were hoping to accomplish with our 8-1/2 yr. old boxer and 5 yr. old boxer/pit mix. We had tried many other training methods in the past but still were unable to walk our dogs calmly on leashes in a social setting. After our four private lessons we came to a much better understanding of how and why our dogs react the way they do and she helped us to modify their behavior so that they now walk nicely. Valerie also has a great personality and made it very fun. We highly recommend Best Paw Forward. Worth every penny.

Valerie is amazing! Not only did she teach me how to train my strong willed pekingese, she immediately reached out to a friend who was having an aggression issue with his doberman pinscher. I am so grateful for her knowledge, patience and love of pets! Thank you Valerie!!!
