Before Mike came along walks were a chore, now she stays right with us and can even be off leash. He has taught her to go to her bed and stay there, to stay back from the door and not charge out of it when it is opened, to walk calmly up and down the stairs, and so much more! Additionally he taught us the behaviors we need to have as owners in order to get the results we want out of training. Mike doesn't just teach your dog the basics, he really listens to what your needs and desires are and custom tailors the training to bring you the desired outcome. I tell everyone I know that Mike is the man to call when it comes to training your dog. As we start to look for another dog to join our family I know setting up training with Mike will be the first call we make!

I am heartbroken and furious. My 13-month-old golden retriever, Maple, was attacked during her…read morefirst overnight stay at Pocatello Pet Lodge on July 18-19, 2025. She came home with at least 13 puncture wounds across her back, ribs, and neck. No staff member informed me of the injuries, and no one even noticed they had occurred. Before this, Maple loved daycare here. But in April 2025, the facility was bought by Best Friends Pet Care, and the quality of care has drastically declined. When I dropped Maple off for her overnight stay, the staff was rude, disorganized, and admitted they didn't even have a kennel ("house") ready for her. Despite purchasing their highest-tier package and bringing her crate, they kept her in a temporary chain-link kennel the entire time. Additionally, I did not receive the 'bedtime photo' I paid for until after her stay was over. The photo, attached, shows she did not sleep in her crate, as they promised and claimed. When I discovered her wounds at home, I immediately called. The manager and staff were unaware Maple had been attacked. Based on her numerous injuries and her timid personality, this was not a single bite--it was a prolonged, unsupervised attack, possibly by multiple dogs. Staff later admitted they are severely understaffed and required by corporate policy to book at 110% capacity. Although they refunded her stay and offered to cover the vet bill, they claimed they could not identify which dog(s) harmed her. This means the aggressive dog(s) has not been banned or separated and may still be attending daycare and boarding. I will never take my dog back, and I strongly recommend you do not either. Maple survived only because of her size--if this had happened to a smaller dog, I believe it would have been fatal.

Did not consent to an exam when I took them in for vaccines. Was told "we always do that" Doctor combined an exam with the vaccine...200 bucks later. They fixed my two cats and told me they were "fully vaccinated" but were in fact not. The doctor sanctimoniously tells me it was "in the paperwork" but was NOT part of the verbal out-brief and was only one one of the cats paperwork. They want me to come in for a 3rd round of vaccines and said "it would be taken care of" but then find it will only be "discounted". They MIGHT be competent medical professionals but Alta as a business operation is far from professional and operates like a greasy used car lot. The hospital has a feel of bait and switch. My comment on how expensive it was, was responded to by the staff saying, "you can't put a price on love". What BS. Emotional blackmail apparently is the go-to here when you find out the prices. Go somewhere else people!

Very nice groomer, and a nice kennel for daytime doggy play.

She looks so much better after a bath and some areas trimmed, including her nails. When my dog is with someone who doesn't respect her she comes home and will not allow us to touch her until the next day. After she has been groomed at Animal Oasis she is loving, happy, and wanting to play with us. The good news is that I can take her and let her play until they are ready to begin the grooming and then pick her up at the end of the day. She is a extrovert and loves to play with other dogs. I have not used their overnight boarding facilities so I can't speak to that aspect of the business.

Every time we arrive at our boarding facility our dogs are so happy to be there they sometimes even forget to say bye to us. They take the dogs on walks to the park, down by the greenbelt, and have so many more service options and discounts for multiple pups staying together.

Some of the things that were wrong about this visit. 1. I sent along 5 t shirts, one to be given to them each day. Two shirts were given to them, the other three left folded in the bag. How hard is it to put a t shirt into a kennel each day? Especially when it comforts them? 2. I asked that they pay attention to my oldest girl as she doesn't eat when stressed. I gave them canned food to entice her. They only used 1 can and she came home visibly skinnier. 3. When I picked her up. she was also visibly stressed - wet face and hoarse from barking. Could they not call and ask how they could help her? I could have had some anti anxiety medication brought for her. 4. I called several times while away (gave up after I couldn't get through more than once), NO ANSWER AND NO RETURN MESSAGE. the one time they answered when I asked how they were, the worker didn't know what dogs I was talking about. She quickly tried to recover but it was obvious she had no clue. I am so disappointed in the care they DID NOT receive.
