A 5 star sit in every sense and a real pleasure taking care of Loulou and Bailey all bit it a very short stay this time. Stephen and Bjorn as exceptional hospitable hosts who really go out of their way to make the sitters feel comfortable and valued in their lovely well located home. Their boys are just to die for and easy and it was wonderful chilling out with them and working from a very quiet location We recommend this sit very highly and thank you both again for continuing to invite us and we were so happy that in the end we were able to find dates that worked out for us both :-)
This sit was a really wonderful experience. Janice is a very friendly and adventurous woman - one I would like to get to know better. She has a large comfortable home only a block from the beach and the sitter(s) have bedrooms and bathroom downstairs separate from the main area which makes changeover days very easy (she graciously allowed us to stay an extra night to make our onward travel easier). However, the highlight of the stay was taking care Millie. She is just adorable and so much fun. When we first arrived Millie got a bit over-excited but once Janice left Millie quickly settled into her routine. She is a fit, strong, dog and needs a good walk and/or regular play time in the yard to keep her happy. Playing tug-of-war with her favorite toy in the house also kept us both amused! I would love to spend time with her again if the opportunity arises.
I loved my holiday stay here with Skye. The house was clean and easy to manage! Jeanette was lovely to chat with and promptly informed me of any need to know information over my two week stay. And wonderful neighbors, too! Skye is a very happy pup that loves attention, play, and cuddles! She was great company and we enjoyed many throw arounds in the backyard and at the park (although, the birds gave her the runaround I can't quite compete with). Commuting into downtown Bristol is very easy with accessible bus routes. And a small grocery is only around the corner from the home, so car access is not necessary to enjoy this sit! Thank you Jeanette and family for such a lovely home away from home.
Taking care of Jazzy and Brody was a wonderful experience! They are such well-behaved dogs with sweet personalities, both very easygoing and just love to hang out with you around the house or in the backyard. We loved taking them to the beach in the mornings in the dogmobile that Cindy kindly provided. Cindy is a wonderful host and was easy to communicate with during her travels. She even introduced us to her family who lives nearby in case we needed anything. The house is in a lovely and well located neighborhood, near Sullivans Island and all the Mount Pleasant conveniences. We loved this sit and would gladly look after Jazzy and Brody again anytime!
Jo has a beautiful home and Boots is the friendliest critter around. Would absolutely recommend them!

We love taking our Miley to Lucky Buddies Pet Sitting! Miley is a very shy dog and takes a little bit to open up. Initially, we were concerned about her adjustment, but after her first daycare visit, she loved it! It was such a relief to see our timid girl so eager and happy to go back. We feel completely comfortable knowing our pup is in the capable hands of the staff at Lucky Buddies. The atmosphere is so welcoming that it feels like we are dropping her off at a friend's or family member's house. We have complete trust in their care for our baby girl. The added convenience of their app, which provides regular updates, is a fantastic touch that keeps us informed and reassured while Miley is in their care. Communication at Lucky Buddies is top-notch. They are always prompt in responding to any inquiries and are more than willing to address any concerns we might have. We also utilize their boarding services in addition to daycare, and each time we leave Miley with them, we do so without any worry or anxiety. The confidence we have in Lucky Buddies Pet Sitting is immense, and they truly make your dog feel like part of their family. A special shoutout to Chelsea, whom our Miley absolutely adores! Chelsea has been so helpful in Miley's smooth transition and has formed a beautiful bond with her. Miley gets incredibly excited whenever she sees Chelsea, which speaks volumes about the care and affection she receives. In summary, we highly recommend Lucky Buddies Pet Sitting for both daycare and boarding. Their exceptional service, loving staff, and reliable communication make them stand out. They treat Miley like one of their own, and we couldn't be happier with our experience.
They have been absolutely amazing with our 1.5 year old cat where we had to leave the country for a month to visit our parents. Alex and the team really made her feel comfortable (she is a shy cat). So definitely recommend Lucky Buddies to whoever really wants to be stress free whenever you can’t be around your fur babies for long!
I will readily admit that I am one of those crazy dog moms - my pup is a full member of our family and I am very particular about her experiences. I checked out four different doggie daycares in the area before deciding to try out Lucky Buddies - and Lucky Buddies blew the competition out of the water. As other reviewers have mentioned, Lucky Buddies provides excellent care for pets - the staff are well trained, passionate, and friendly. They really get to know your pet and meet them where they're at. Neko started attending at 4 months old (she's now 13 months old), and the folks at Lucky Buddies have been so patient with her wild puppy and teenage months. They work with me on her training, and they clearly love her for who she is. And Neko loves going to both daycare and overnight boarding! The level of professionalism demonstrated at Lucky Buddies continually amazes me. The staff communicates frequently, and Yesica and Alex are always adding new improvements with the dogs' best interests in mind. I would not trust any other facility with Neko; Lucky Buddies is her home away from home, and I'm so glad we have them in our lives.
am so happy to have found Lucky Buddies! I've owned three dogs over the course of the past 20 years and have boarded them at 4 different locations. This is hands down, BY FAR the absolute best. I realize at first glance it seems expensive, HOWEVER, when you realize the overnight price is for 24 hours and includes the wonderful daycare program, it's very reasonable. The staff are just wonderful and clearly love animals--all are treated the way staff would treat their own pets. Among the many things I appreciate are the regular messages and photos they took during my pet's stay and posted on the portal as well as emailed or texted owners (depending on your preferred communication). The best proof, of course, is how happy my dog was during the stay and when I picked her up. Yes, she was glad to see me but clearly she was not anxious to leave (as has been the case in a different boarding place). Don't even hesitate; this is the place to go. Your pet will love it and love you for taking him/her there. For the first time in a very long time, I don't feel guilty about leaving a pet behind when I travel.
I had to go for an unexpected trip and was in a hurry to find a good overnight daycare for my cat. The staff was very patient with him, and he was even able to warm up to the staff in the short amount of time he stayed with the Lucky Buddy staff. Very grateful for the care and frequent updates the staff provided!
To say Yesica & Juan are doggy whispers is an understatement!! They seriously have been so flexible with my fur babies- Ollie & Sadie. having a place that can take in last minute requests is a plus! I cannot thank them enough for taking in my babies when need be. And of course keeping up with them via Instagram is also a relief! You get to see what the Buddies are all up to throughout the day! It’s always an adventure being posted on their. I cannot leave out all the doggy activities they do (you get to take home & let your doggy be creative) as well as all the themed festivities, a holiday? Believe Lucky Buddies will be celebrating it! Like Valentine’s day, St Patrick’s Day, Christmas, Halloween… etc., they do it all! These guys go above and beyond to ensure every dog gets enough exercise, play time, cuddles, food, treats… the whole nine yards! It’s the best.. i’m forever thankful for their service and love to my babies.
Awesome place with awesome staff! Highly recommend Lucky Buddies. My mind is at peace leaving my dog in their care whether for day care or boarding. The updates/report cards they send are also so nice and appreciated. Safe to say our dog loves this place! Thanks Lucky Buddies!
Roxie has been going to Lucky's Buddies for that past year. Yecenia and Juan are great with her. When I went on vacation to Egypt they even picked Roxie up at my house! I love all the extra touches Yecenia does--including holiday events, periodically sending photos and updates of Roxie during the day. I highly recommend taking your dog to Lucky's Buddies.

We began taking our puppy to Lucky Buddies a few months ago and have been so happy with their care! We've done daycare, boarding, grooming, and will soon start some in house visits as well. Our puppy loves playing with the other dogs, and always comes home happily tired and engaged. They are great at updating us, and we love catching glimpses of our pup's day on their social media accounts too! They use the timetopet app which has also been super easy to use and book services, they've also been very responsive to questions. We love Lucky Buddies so far!
Joji loves spending time at Lucky Buddies. I love seeing the videos of him playing and receiving daily reports cards with photos. He used to be a shy puppy, but he has become so social and playful after his stays with his buddies. He also enjoys the neighborhood walks and gets a bath before coming home! We really appreciate the love and attention that Joji receives from Lucky Buddies.
The best dog day care and boarding in San Jose! My husky Luna loves this place. It's definitely a second home to her. Everyone should bring their dogs here. She loves meeting new friends!
This place really cared about my little dog and I had a lot of confidence that they would understand her. She is 11, which is relatively old to start doggie daycare. But she seemed to have a great time and I'm delighted to have a place I can drop in when I need coverage for her.
We've been taking our now 4 year old Shih Tzu to We Dog Care for boarding since his former dog boarding closed. The staff is very attentive and ask a lot of questions when dropping him off. They have been great! We will continue to use their services as we have been very happy with them.
We have been using We Dog Care for day care and boarding for about 9 years. The staff members truly care about the dogs and are so kind and responsive. Highly recommend We Dog Care!!!
The staff at We Dog Care are very mindful of my dog’s needs and her care. I always get a full report at the end of the day. It is as though Artemis was the only dog they cared for.
I love that they evaluate your pet before they will have the pet in daycare or overnight. This not only is a safety for your dog but for all the dogs. I also love that I get a verbal report on how our dog has interacted and behaved during her stay. I highly recommend this place
Great place !!! My 14 year old Shepherd mix has gone to We Dog Care for a year. After trying other daycare options in the San Jose/Santa Clara area ....based on my experiences, without a doubt this is the absolute best ! The staff is friendly, very caring, knowledgeable and takes the time to get to know each dog, their behavior and needs. The safety of each dog is a top priority too. The lobby is large and always clean. After drop off, there is peace of mind knowing she's in good hands and well cared for. When picked up, I'm told how things went that day. With senior dog issues, they match her with other dogs that best fit her energy level and personality. The daycare dogs stay in the daycare area the entire time they are there (from drop off to pick up) unless feeding, grooming or different services are requested. Unlike other places that would put the dogs in individual kennels/crates/cages hours before closing and that's where they stayed until picked up. There is someone in with or around the dogs at all times, I've witnessed that not to be the case elsewhere. Also, no restrictions when daycare is available. I'm so glad to have found We Dog Care and feel grateful to everyone there for the loving care shown to my sweet, senior little girl.
We Dog Care knows about dogs; how to train them, how to handle them, and how to communicate with the owners. Our two Cairn terriers are excited to go, happy when we pick them up, and sleep well when they get home. On a recent vacation we were able to watch them on Youtube, and know they were having a great time. The manager of the Willow Glen location is outstanding at customer service, and we appreciate the little details she notices about each of our dogs. Highly recommend.
My grand-dog is in town and I had to find doggy daycare while I work on Sunday morning. Took him in today for an evaluation and it went great. They were so friendly so helpful and the prices are excellent.
We Dog Care is a professional company that always cares for my dog. When I pick her up at end of day, I get a report on her behavior ( once she got a time out because she wouldn’t stop barking when another female dog took away her male playmate). Don’t take away my man, Joline! I am always comfortable leaving her in their care for the day, or boarding.
I was looking for day care for my 1 year old pup and was able to find Jackie through google. She was able to take him 5 days a week, full time, which was what me and my boyfriend were looking for. The meet and greet was great. She really wanted to make my pup feel comfortable. As the days went by, my pup was super excited each morning to see Jackie. She keeps us posted with our pup throughout the day and is extremely reliable! Would recommend to anyone trying to board or day care.
We meet Jackie over a year ago at puppy training. We were looking for someone to board our golden retriever puppy for a weekend. Our Lola was well taken care of and had a blast socializing with other dogs. She now goes 3 days a week for doggie daycare. She looks forward to seeing Jackie and her pups. Jackie goes above and beyond to make sure every dog gets the attention they need through out the day 💛
Jackie is amazing. She is very responsive and flexible. I started going to her after looking for a dog sitter that was closer to my home. She is much more than a dog sitter. Her dog training experience and loving nature elevates her services. Recently, I went on a trip far away and Jackie was only able to watch my dog for a portion of the time I was gone. After I was not able to find other options, she offered to take care of him and drop him off at the second boarding place. She also fed him white rice and boiled chicken when his stool was too soft. Even though she does not take dogs with soft stool she cared for mine as if he were her own. Thank you Jackie. I'm only sad that I'm moving soon and won't be able to see you much longer.
Jackie (of Precious Paws) is amazing. We adopted a sweet but stubborn half-grown pup, and Jackie has worked hard to teach our dog some manners. Our dog loves going to see Jackie every day, because she’s given tasks to do, but also treated with love. Jackie has made a world of difference!
I boarded my 10 month old GSD puppy with Jackie for 5 days and I was extremely happy with how well she cared for my dog. I received daily updates and pictures of my pup and that really helped me since it was my first time away from him. Due to snow storms my flight was cancelled and I couldnt make it back in time for the pickup. Jackie went above and beyond to help board my dog for an extra night. I will highly recommend Precious Paws for your Precious Pups.
I just wanted to share how much I love Precious Paws. My original dog sitter canceled on me at the last minute when I was ALREADY out of town and I called Jackie from Precious Paws who came through for me in a big way. Not only did she come pick him up and watched him until I came back in town, but she sent me updates that included pictures and just text messages that just left me know that he is in great hands and from the looks of things he made himself really comfortable on the couch. This is the exact kind care I was looking for. I didn't want to put him in a place where he was going to be another dog in a cage. I wanted him to have fun minus me and my son and that is exactly what I got. I am so happy with the care and will be back there for services again.
Our experience with Precious Paws was amazing. Jackie took care of our dog while we were out of town. It was a peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. We’ll definitely use her services again.
My experience with Precious Paws was amazing!! When I came to pick up my 2 year old lab she was so happy that she didn't want to leave. I'm most definitely going to use jackie (precious paws) in future reference.
Great dog sitter/walker. Never a problem leaving my dog there. 👍👍👍 …
Gr8 place
My dog loves coming here! The staff is friendly and professional. I trust that my dog will be safe. We have used them for day care as well as boarding and couldn’t be happier.
I strongly advise against using this business. My dog was attacked while under their care, which was traumatizing for her. Despite this, they terminated their service on the same day, citing my complaints about their billing practices as the reason. What's even more concerning is that they terminated their service without any prior warning or attempt to work with me. I have reported this business to the BBB, but they have not responded to any of my emails and calls. I tried to work with my credit card company to dispute the charge, but the business has responded by claiming that I canceled the service, even though they sent me a termination letter clearly stating that they were forfeiting the unused passes. I did however request for the refund for the unused passes which they have not done. I've sent several emails asking for a copy of the receipts and contract that they claimed I signed to agree they can terminate their service and forfeit any unused passes with any reason. I highly recommend avoiding this business due to their poor handling of my dog's attack and their shady business practices. If you are already using their service, be cautious when you purchase their passes in advance. As of today, I have yet to receive my refund of $1428.3 for the unused passes.
Staff is very rude and doesn’t communicate well at all. When I went to pick up my dog, it was after 12 noon and they argued with me over paying a late pick up fee I told them just to use one of my prepaid days from my boarding package to cover it to which they insisted they can’t do it and I must give them more money at that moment Understand that the prepaid day that I was asking them to use is more than the value of the late pick up fee Having just got home from vacation and not having my wallet or money with me I had no way to pay this fee and instead of trying to make things easy they decided to fight with me. All I’m trying to do is get the dogs that were prepaid and get home. I had a huge positive balance on my account don’t fight me The manager then went as far as calling my emergency contact on file to tell them that I was angry at them in an attempt to get me in trouble with them🤣. My neighbor informed me that the person on the phone was petty and rude, and she asked him why he was calling if there wasn’t an emergency and if I had already picked up my dogs she answered emergency contact not my parents Parking lot is practically unusable small I had chosen this place because of the raving reviews and am so disappointed by my personal experience. I tried so hard yet each of the 4 times I went there they found reasons to cause drama accusing me of not paying for prepaid grooming in Oct 23 to not coming fast enough in August of 23 to pick my dog up from grooming (they called me at 1 while I was showering and then 3 more times in the next hour as I got dressed and made my way over to pick up my dog). BE PATIENT it takes time to get there, I can’t stop everything and teleport over. Do not recommend will not go back.
Great doggy daycare service! Super friendly staff. I feel confident my pup is well looked after and safe. Worth the price for peace of mind! Update: I had to board my dog shortly after he was diagnosed with an ear infection. I couldn’t change my trip as it had been planned years in advance. They didn’t charge me extra to give him two pills a day plus ear drops every night. They also cleaned his ears every other day with a medicated ear cleaner I provided. I took him to the vet the day I picked him up for a follow up, and the vet was shocked by how clean his ears were. There was no sign of infection or irritation. The swabs they took from his ears were perfectly clean. The vet said she rarely sees ears this clean. I was over the moon thrilled! Thank you Dr. Dave’s for taking the best care of my dog! I will NEVER go to another boarding facility again!
Have always had a good experience here. It does smell bad in the lobby more often than not and once my dog smelled AWFUL upon picking her up from boarding but....nothing that a bath couldn't fix. Recommend.
REST IN PEACE, JUSTICE FOR ALAN!!! Do not trust this place with your pet! Management will lie to the family about what goes on behind closed doors. SOMEONE NEEDS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE.
Safe place to bring your dog. It is a smaller place, but the dogs aren't in kennels for part of the day like Canine Corral. The walks are also in a small area. The main objective for me is to keep my pup safe and free of ouch reports and Dr Dave's does that. Other services are available too
My dog is always excited to go there and always happy when I pick him up. No matter if it's for a few hours, a long weekend, or grooming. Best of all is he is allowed to play with other dogs while there. Staff always accommodates any insane request, be it for diet, grooming nuances, or even to send picks of BM for tracking digestive issues. The only issue is they could be too popular on weekends and may not be able to board overnight, wish they were bigger.
I love the hair cut they gave my dog. They do a beautiful job here the only thing I wish they would have done was call me to let me know it was going to be more since my dog was being difficult. I understand charging more since they needed another stylist to help but just call to let me know what is going on as well as that it was going to take more then 4 hours. I am very understanding of these things but I like to know what is going on with my baby. Other then that the groomers are amazing.
We use them for grooming are older dogs. They do an excellent job and accommodate our special needs (we need to use scent free shampoo, which we provide). Our dogs are not particularly stressed to go to the groomers.
Stef is a dream come true. Pricing is very affordable. Our dogs absolutely love her. They are thrilled when she comes, and so excited to see her. I have a ring and can see them all. She's always on time and treats them like her own. She loves them too. We have 3 (wide variety of needs and abilities) 8 month old Frenchie, 2.5 yr old male blue nose and 6 year old female blue nose. She does whatever it takes to make sure they all get what they need. If we could afford it, we would absolutely have her 7 days a week. She's a great communicator and very flexible. We have changes to the schedule a lot and she is super flexible and understanding. We love her! Highly recommend!
Stef is fantastic ! She is reliable and trustworthy, she is able to accommodate us when needed, even with last minute changes to our schedule, and best of all she can handle my 90lb yellow lab (and he LOVES her!!). Your dog is in good hands with her.
Stef has been great! I hired her 10 months ago to walk my 80 lb Labrador, Casey. He's 11 years old but has the energy of a two year old. He's very strong but Stef has handled him nicely without problem. She communicates very well. I am thrilled to know that Casey gets exercise everyday and he's always happy to see her. I would highly recommend Stef to anyone who needs a reliable dog walker.
Stef is an amazing dog walker. She is thoughtful and sympathetic to my pup’s desires. She switches it up when my pup gets bored with the same ol’ walk all the time. Excellent with communication and she has been gracious when I needed to change the schedule. Would recommend!
Steph has been amazing with our two labs, one puppy that is a handful and another elderly lab. She's always on time and very trustworthy. The dogs are so excited to see her when she comes! She's very communicative and quite flexible when changes are needed to the schedule. Would highly recommend!
Stef is great! She is reliable, professional, and very flexible with my crazy work schedule. She has been walking my 11 month old border-terrier/doxie mix for almost six months now, and DJ absolutely loves her. She truly does treat your pet like it was her own. Would highly recommend her for your pet needs.
Stefanie is a great pet sitter. She loves dogs , handles our dogs with care, gets them tired everyday with exercise , and feeds them at the right times. We have also loaned her one of our cars to use with the dogs and have never had any problems. We also trust her with our house. Last year she took care of our dogs while we were in Hawaii for 10 days and she did a great job. 5 stars for stefspetservices —-
I'm so glad I found Stef. She's been walking my two golden retrievers, one is 11 and the other is now eight months old, for around three months now, 5 days a week. I have a camera up so I can watch the dogs and I can see that they're always excited whenever she comes to the door and it's great exercise and mental stimulation for them while I'm at work. I had called around to a couple of dog walking services before I found her and Stef was the first to respond, the other services didn't even bother calling back. She is very friendly and obviously loves dogs. Puppies can be a lot to deal with but she's very good with handling him. I don't know what I'd do without Stef!
Excellent dog walker. Our dogs completely adore her. She’s very flexible and responds immediately to any questions, requests, etc. Recommended completely!
Stef's always taken good care of my now elderly PippiCat - whenever I've needed it!1
Hands down the best place for my dog. The staff are so warm and caring, even staff members I haven't met before greet my dog by name and seem to know who he plays with and how his days go. I have a very intense, extremely high energy, easily bored, destructive puppy. In a previous daycare (equally warm staff, but less staff members present and no toys/equipment for playing), my dog would come home tired but his manners would deteriorate after his time there. Sometimes he'd play a little too rough with other dogs and often he would smell bad. I believe this was due to poor supervision (dogs urinating and it not being cleaned promptly, unsupervised play getting too wild and rough). My dog has as good (or better) manners after going to Downtown Dogs and this was evident after his first week there. I work a lot and really appreciate that there is a place to bring my puppy where he gets to play, interact with other dogs and humans, and just be himself and thrive. I also appreciate that all the work I put into his training doesn't go out the window when I leave him at DD. They also offer a lot of a la carte activities, treats, playtime, etc. and sign up for these and regular services is really easy (online, by phone or email, or sign up sheet in lobby). Can't express how grateful I am to have found DD and that they love my dog so much!
Super care givers and handlers. Our dog is happy to go and happy when we pick him up. We love the one on one activities and being able to look in on the streaming video. Go Amber and Jackie, Clipper loves ya, and so do we!
My pup absolutely loves it here! I don't have to worry about him when he's here; I know he's having a good time and, as a bonus, he comes home exhausted. Everyone on staff is super friendly and responsible. They provide honest feedback about your pup, both good and bad. Additionally, they meticulously keep track of everything your pup needs, including food, treats and enrichment activities. They also ensure that my dog doesn’t get overstimulated by giving him enough breaks during the day. Their evaluation process gives me confidence that my pup will get to play with dogs of similar temperament and won't get bullied.
10/10 would recommend this facility! I was incredibly nervous leaving my dog in the care of someone who wasn’t me, but the employees here made me feel comfortable doing so. They are all kind and clearly love dogs. I love that I am able to check in on her through their live webcams, as well as having the option of “pupdates”, where they text you pictures/videos throughout the day. They have so many enrichment options to choose from to add something a little special to your dog’s day, which I always choose! My dog has gone here a few times and each time she is excited to go in and greet the workers/other dogs. I still get nervous leaving her, but knowing that she is genuinely being looked after/cared for makes me feel a little bit better. Definitely check this facility out if you are considering doggie day care!!
Both San jose and Palo Alto locations are great. The staff is friendly and always doing special events for the dogs. I appreciate that your dog will also learn how to play well with other dogs and can practice other skills like obedience and agility.
Downtown Dogs offers great enrichment activities and weekly treats that pet parents can choose from. My boy is never bored when he’s there. The great staff really get to know the dogs and best of all they really like the dogs who are in their care.
we love the staff and facility at DD! Our dog loves it here soooo much. We are never concerned leaving him when we go on trips. We know he is safe and taken care of and the little add ons of activities, treats, play time, and photo shoots make the experience that much better and cuter. 10/10 we love our DD family
This is a gem of a dog care facility. The staff are truly amazing. Their understanding and patience with Bernard’s quirks, like his playful habit of going through legs or his less charming moments of mounting, have been great and they handle correcting behaviors well. Bernie has been a regular for a few years now and absolutely adores his daycare and overnight stays. Whether it’s for a day or a week, I recommend this place!
I’ve been bringing my dog to downtown dogs for 2 years now, and would absolutely recommend them to others! It’s always a good sign when my dog is eager to go through the day care door every day. I love they have an evaluation before allowing any dog into the daycare, they put a cap on the staff to dog ratio, they have a they have 2 hr lunch breaks during the day to feed them and let them relax/digest, they are so accommodating of my pup who has his unique personality quirks, and they are great about giving feedback on my pup’s day each time I ask. Also, the staff is always so friendly and provides great customer service!
We absolutely love this place. From the first time that we brought our 11 week old to a puppy social here, we knew we had found an awesome group of people that we could trust. They are usually booked for daycare 3 days out and extended overnight boarding needs a month or more notice. We've been coming here for a year and a half now and every Thursday Artemis gets super excited and bounces off the garage door hoping to get to go for the day. The webcams are clutch and let parents watch how much fun our furbabies are having without us! This week we went through another puppysitting agency and we thought we were going to be ok being out of town for a week. Boy were we wrong. Even though we had introduced Artemis to the sitter beforehand and they seemed to get along, the sitter just couldn't get Artemis to trust her. It took a neighbor and their pup coming over to get her to feel safe enough to be leashed. Fast forward to a repeat of the situation the next day at the sitter's place. We were out of town and there was absolutely nothing we could do. Artemis was stressed and didn't feel safe, so was the sitter! Downtown Dogs really came through for us. Even though they were already fully booked, they listened to our situation and agreed that they were the safest place for Artemis to be, so they took her in! I am soooo glad that we had been bringing her here for soo long! Artemis is in a happy place where she knows and loves everyone and she gets to play with her pupfriends.
Rebecca was responsive and provided a lot of very useful information to us even before we picked up our new pup out of state. We invited Rebecca for a consultation at our home in Campbell. Even with prior experience as a dog owner, her insights into our pup’s development were incredibly valuable. Rebecca provided personalized advice tailored to her needs. Her expertise, kindness, and guidance make her an excellent resource for dog training in the greater Campbell area. Thank you Rebecca!
Look no more - Rebecca is the dog whisperer you are looking for. She helped us with fundamentals with our 5 month old yellow lab. Invest in quality dog training to build the best relationship with your new family member. Rebecca helped us with crate, leash, down training and reducing jumping on people. When we were traveling we needed someone trusted to take care of our pup - Rebecca keeps a very low dog count to provide 1:1 attention. She sent us photos daily. It was clear our pup was in the right place. 🐶
We recently got a new puppy and had Rebecca over for a consultation. Although we've been dog owners before, it was really beneficial to have Rebecca make observations on our new pup's development and for her to give us advice specific to him. Rebecca is knowledgeable and kind and a terrific resource for dog training and socialization in the Willow Glen and greater San Jose area.
Rebecca worked with our rambunctious Golden Retriever puppy as part of her 6-week training course. The results were great and really laid the foundation for us to continue raising a calmer, more well-behaved pooch. We liked it so much that we've already taken advantage of her Train and Board services as a refresher when we went out of town for a few days. You will learn how to create the routines that create the structure for your dog. I highly recommended Willow Glen Paws!
Loved working with Rebecca! Her knowledge of positive reinforcement training has helped us tremendously. She was very easy to work with, gave us homework for the week, sent photos of our puppy playing. The puppy school is perfect if you are looking to socialize and train in a safe environment. I would definitely recommend her to any puppy parent.
We were becoming a little frustrated after we got our Lab puppy home. He ran wild in the house and bit anything he could reach. We were lucky to find Rebecca to rescue. Rebecca is passionate and experienced in puppy/dog training. Her systematic training course works like a wonder. After just first week of this four week training course, our puppy behaved much better. He not only commended basic cues but learned a good social skills when playing other pups. From Monday to Wednesday, our puppy was so excited when I dropped him off at Rebecca's house. I could see he was having such a good time while he was getting trained. I highly recommend Rebecca's dog day school.
Willow Glen Paws Puppy School was just the training we needed for our little boxer. Rebecca was amazing to work with. She really listened, was supportive, and made training fun. Our puppy loved going there and we loved getting the updates and photos. We’ve definitely seen the results and would highly recommend this school to others.
Rebecca of Willow Glen Paws is amazing! Our 6 month old lab was a big coutner surfer, shoe/sock/pillow grabber, leash puller, and didn't come when called. After the inital consultation and a follow up session, I can happily say that our puppy has made significant improvements on all of the above. Rebecca provided us great foundations and homework to work on with our pup which we still use to this day. Rebecca took the time to listen to us, our needs, and our expecations of our puppy. Thank you, Rebecca! I highly recommend Willow Glen Paws!
My 3 months golden doodle puppy had joined 4 weeks puppy school hold by Willow Glen Paws. The results were great. My puppy had learnt many skills from the school, most importantly he becomes more confident! Rebecca had also provided many useful information and homework for the dog owners to learn. I highly recommended Willow Glen Paws!
Rebecca is very experienced and Informed. We had a consult with her about some troubles we were having with our adolescent dog and she helped us understand things from our dog's perspective and suggested ways we can change the behaviour. I liked that she charges per session rather than pay up front for a bunch of sessions. That way we can work on things that she'd suggested and setup follow up consultations as necessary. i would definitely recommend Rebecca's services to anyone looking for some canine behavioural training
We've been taking our 50lb labradoodle to Furrtropolis daycare basically since the day they opened, and have loved it! Their early open and late close hours are amazingly helpful for drop off/pick up with work. Friendly staff who really care about each pet; when our dog wasn't feeling well one time, they reached out to me to let me know what was going on. It is a great big facility, so she comes home nice and tired from playing. We've used their boarding services too, which was a smooth process and gave some picture updates along the way. We are so happy Furrtropolis opened!
Very fun sport focused daycare that believe sin the health and wellness of your pups. I have my beauceron participate in almost every class they offer, and have made some wonderful friends there. The facility focuses on the safety of the animals as well, keeping a close eye on all of them and participating in alot of personal interaction with the dogs to ensure they comfortable, safe and happy.
We took our two Huskies to them today on July 17th. They got us an appointment quickly and the 11 year old was super dirty! They were WONDERFUL- our girls came out clean, happy and not traumatized at all! Apparently they did sing their Husky songs but they did a great job! This place is women owned! We will be back! I also saw they had a daycare and the dogs appeared happy!!
My dog Hattie has been attending day care at Furrtropolis for the last few months and she absolutely LOVES it! She is always so excited when we get there. It’s clear how much Mireille loves pets and is very knowledgeable about dogs. I also appreciated that Furrtropolis does an initial evaluation to get to know each dog and make sure it is the right environment. The dogs are well cared for and get plenty of attention from people who seem to really love dogs. The facility is brand new, clean and safe and the dogs have plenty of access to fresh water. They also do fun activities you can pay $20 extra and your dog can participate in for added mental stimulation and training. Hattie is a HUGE fan of rat Thursdays and it always makes me happy to see the videos they share and how much fun she is having. I’ve tried both Wag and Petsmart in the past and Furrtropolis is hands down the best day care. It’s nice to leave her somewhere where I know she is safe, well cared for and having a fun-filled day!
Mirielle and Rebecca are amazing here at Furrtropolis. Mirielle is the owner who goes above and beyond to make sure your dog is comfortable, well taken care of. Their number one priority is making sure your dog feels safe and comfortable here. Rebecca is the groomer, my dog loves spa time and can’t wait to return. She is very knowledgeable and really cares to check in to see what you would prefer and never assumes. Ares our French bulldog has never felt so comfortable in any environment but this place is home for him.
Great new dog care center for the area. Friendly staff that really care for the dogs. My chihuahua dog got to learn some rat sniffing training and my husky has had a couple great groomings. Highly recommend!
Clean new facility , they sent pictures and updates during boarding , they were attentive to special needs during fireworks season . They care about the welfare of the animals there.
Highly recommend. Our dog get's so excited every-time we bring him and always comes home exhausted from hours of play! This facility is rockin and the staff are very considerate. Plus, they have in-house grooming!
Check out day went well. Last minute request. Was able to take us instantly for next day play date. Clean & well organized layout for dog safety, boarding and play areas Both indoor and outdoor options. Full service options available. Check it out❣️
Newly remodel space, great staff, easy to work with and super friendly. Highly recommended this place.
Michelle and Bill are AMAZING! They took great care of the dogs; truly catering to their every need. Michelle even texted pictures during their stay, so I never had to worry! The dogs adore them and will be back to visit them in the future.
I have boarded my dog here a number of times over the years and I have always felt safe doing so. I always choose the kennels that have a video camera so I can see my dog any time of day or night. I have also booked nail trims here and have been satisfied. The staff have always been very friendly to me and my dog seems to like them all (she lets them carry her around with no trouble at all). Will continue to board here as long as I live in the area.
Our two cats spent 10 days in the care of Paws Crossing. They were relaxed when we picked them up, and adjusted well when we got them home. They were clearly well cared for. The people running reception and their care couldn't have been nicer. I highly recommend this "resort " for pets!
Love this place for our dog! They clearly take care and make you feel comfortable for leaving your loved pet while out of town. They welcome anything you want to provide for your dog beyond the necessaties (toys, blankets etc). Our 9 year old German Sheppard is on medication and they take care of it and we know she is well taken care of. We love the cottage so she has the space she needs and we are able to check on her via their webcam. Highly recommend them for your pet if you need to leave your pet at home.
My dog Denali LOVES going to Paws Crossing. We can't even say Paws Crossing because he thinks he going and gets crazy! It's been so good for him to have play time with other dogs.Grooming does a great job too. We board him when we're away and have peace of mind he's in good hands and having a great time! Thanks staff at Paws Crossing!
I bring Angie here every month! I have yet to have my pup board here, but the grooming is excellent! Maria does a great job with Angie! 🧡 …
So, we wanted to board our cat for a few days, and decided to try Paws Crossing Pet Resort & Spa. The website indicates several methods to make a reservation, which all ends up contacting them in various ways, and they'll call you back to make a reservation. Well, I tried leaving voicemails. I tried sending emails. I tried their online form. I never got any contact back. Luckily, we managed to find another boarding place which would let us make a reservation in time, but this was overall a stressful experience due to losing time in locating a boarding provider.
I’ve boarded my cat here a couple of times and I’ve always been really satisfied. I have a special needs cat and was rejected by a few places for boarding but people at Paws Crossing take great care of her and are very patient. Plus there’s an ER for pets right next door, so that gives a bit of peace of mind
The staff took very good care of our dogs. We will surely be back to board our dogs again. Thank you!
Had a walk through today to decide if I want to board my dog. It was very clean, organized and the staff seemed to truly care. Made a reservation. Hope it all works out in the end.
My dogs love going to Paws Crossing. I use their boarding and bathing services mainly. Great staff and a very clean environment.
