    Sitting pretty for his handler
    C R.

    I've boarded my dogs here twice. They have taken excellent care of them, sent pictures and updates on their status and kept track of all of their habits, behaviors and activities. The prices are very reasonable. Very clean & safe environment. My dog is happy to go right in and loves all the staff. Worth every penny- highly recommend.

    His report card! So cute

    I had the best boarding experience here with my rescue pup! The staff were knowledgeable and very responsive. They emailed multiple pictures to me throughout the week while I was away. This was my second boarding experience and after the first one, I went in very nervous after a horrific experience at another boarding center. But the staff here went above and beyond to make sure my dog and I were comfortable. They would provide detailed updates each time I called to check in just to make sure everything was okay. By the second day of his stay, I felt relieved that he was in good hands. Mickey looked like he was having a blast in the field! The smile from the pictures alone assured me he was happier than ever! They took extensive notes during drop off to ensure all instructions were correct. Everything was followed accordingly! He requires daily medication and the staff had no issues providing them. They even bathed him before I picked him up! I can't wait for our next boarding session in October! I'm sure Mickey can't wait as well!

    Went in for a tour as we have been looking for a facility to board our dogs once or twice a month when we travel for tournaments for our children. On the tour, Garrett, was so friendly and thorough in his explanations. The facility is really nice, clean, welcoming, and I love how it's tucked in away from town or lots of traffic. My dogs have not received very much socialization and the staff's patience and guidance was very reassuring. I love that, even if the dogs cannot handle being with the group while boarding, they still get outside time with a handler in a nice big and open space.

    We recently got setup here. So far we have done a few daycare days and two short boarding stays. The facilities are very nice and nestled along a lovely hillside. The convenience of daycare drop off with no reservation is so easy! Boarding has been very easy to pre-arrange. The staff is attentive, professional, and friendly. We are new dog owners so it's comforting to be setup here anytime we need it. My dog seems to like it and comes back tired from playing and socializing. I highly recommend anyone curious about this place to do the tour and day of play.

    Puppy's paw

    This review has been a long time coming due to a very unpleasant experience we had with Club K9 in December 2023. We needed to leave our Golden Retriever puppy there for a few nights because we were traveling. We dropped him off on Thursday, December 14th. By Friday night, Club K9 had left us a voicemail saying our dog was scratching and biting himself. On the morning of December 16th, I called and was told he was still itching. They suggested taking him to his vet, and I agreed for him to be taken at 8:00 AM. However, when I checked in the afternoon, they hadn't taken him yet, and he had been locked up all day. By then, my puppy's vet was closed, so they chose another vet to take him to. When I returned on Monday, December 18th, my puppy was in terrible shape. I had to take him straight from Club K9 to the vet. The whole ordeal ended up costing me over $1000. The worst part was that Club K9 showed no sympathy or offered any apology. They even suggested my puppy might have had these symptoms before I left him, which was not true. He was a perfectly happy and healthy puppy when I left him, and I returned to find him sick and unhappy.

    We recently went on an 8 day camping trip where there was extremely active bear in the campgrounds every day and night for the last 60 days, so, I decided to board our three dogs instead of taking them along. I have never boarded any of my dogs before, and did some research through Yelp and other sites. Club K-9 Fremont-Sunol came up with very high ratings, so we called to make an appointment to discuss possibly boarding our senior dog, and two puppies under a year old. We arrived for our appointment and were greeted outside where they took our dogs (to be evaluated for their temperament with staff as well as if they'd be a good fit for socializing with other dogs in the play areas). We took a tour of the facilities and everything looked really good. I liked how much supervision the dogs all seemed to have (especially the people to dog ratios in the group play areas) as well as the cleanliness, and full access we had to each area with our tour. There didn't seem to be any area that was "staff only" or places kept hidden from our prying eyes :-) After going over the boarding and daycare options, we left for a few hours so the dogs could play with the other dogs under supervision in order to evaluate whether group play was a good fit, or if separate daily play time would be more appropriate. It was great to know that all passed all evaluations with flying colors. This facility exceeded my expectations far more than I could have imagined! Since we were not camping in a location where we could be contacted in any way, they were perfectly fine with me giving emergency authorization to someone else, and they also volunteered to send updates and pictures to that contact as well as us to have when we returned back to cell phone signal. They kept her informed and when all of the dogs weren't eating very much (probably cause they were a bit stressed since it was a first experience for us all), the team spent extra time with them to encourage them to eat and ensure they were getting adequate food intake. When we arrived to pick them up, they'd been bathed, and all their bedding we provided had been laundered and put back together for us. That was an unexpected and wonderful surprise! I highly recommend this facility (I've never been to the other location that I believe is in San Ramon), but the Fremont-Sunol is absolutely wonderful from the staffing to the facilities themselves. The only thing that would make it better from a pet parent perspective is if there were cameras you could pull up to see your babies...however....I'm sure that would really up the pricing, and I feel comfortable enough with the quality of staffing and efficiency with cleanliness and protocols for the dogs utilizing their services, I'd rather see the prices stay as reasonable as they are! We paid a similar cost to keep my mother-in-law's one dog for only 3 days at a veterinary boarding facility (no medical conditions) as we did for all three dogs for 8 days!! Thank you so much Club K-9 Fremont-Sunol! We will be returning and recommending you to everyone we know who may need boarding and/or daycare services in the area!!! I'm also attaching some of the pictures from their email updates where you can see the large area that they have for supervised individual playtime the dogs get every day. It's amazing to see our senior dog playing and running around with someone other than us at a strange place since she tends to be a bit anxious in new experiences and locations.

    Happy dog

    The mountain of five star reviews is not an exaggeration. This is a long overdue review for Club k9 in Sunol - I have taken my senior shepherd Daisy here many times for daycare and overnight boarding. My dog loves people, so the 1:1 care model really suited her. Once I came back to pick her up earlier than expected and I saw a staff member sitting in the grass with her giving her pets and belly rubs. Daisy always walks in and walks out happy. Even with all the construction happening, customer service never skipped a beat. Lucas often came out to greet us as soon as we parked and he was always so helpful, professional, and friendly. Hannah was also incredibly sweet and it was easy to tell Daisy loved her. The initial tour was great, I would recommend asking to see the daycare kennels too because they are different from the overnight boarding kennels - they are outdoors so make sure to speak with the staff if your dog is sensitive to the elements. They are willing to make accommodations the best they can. Around the time I needed to board my dog, I read a lot of reviews saying "I had to board my dog for the longest time yet and I was nervous but it was GREAT" and it was true. I had to board her for five nights and it was the longest time I had spent away from my dog since I got her, and they sent me photo updates daily and answered my questions. I packed her bed for her and all her medications and they were really diligent with following instructions. We miss this place a lot - we have since moved so we aren't able to come back so much, but highly highly recommend this place, it gave me such peace of mind to know my dog is taken care of when everything else in life is so hectic. It's scary reading mixed reviews of other places and it was a major relief to find this place. Thank you for all your amazing service and we hope we can come back soon!

    Club K9 does a great job taking care of our boy, Ryder. Great facilities, staff, and always a pleasure to send him here. He wags his tail every time as he gets taken in. Staff picks him up from the car and makes the drop off/pick up super convenient. We had a scheduling mix-up earlier in the year and management was very helpful in fixing it. Love Club K9!

    We love club k9. They are so good our sweet puppy and a total life saver with our busy schedules. They always send us pictures when our boy is with them and are so easy to work with. Five stars all the way!

    Excellent staff, they really care . Pla e us beautiful, clean, spacious. Highly recommended. My dogs lives the play time. They are outside unlike other dogs place that are indoor and walled.​

    We took our 2 dogs here for some days when my daughter got married. New ownership but I could not be happier. They sent us pictures of them while we were away and that just gave me major peace and tranquillity knowing they looked happy. Lucky-my pit-bull and Honey a terrier mix were in great spirits and safe with no problems when we picked them up. I can seriously say I would take them back when needed. Its scary when you leave your babies but they eased my mind big time with the pictures.

I reached out to Hailey after a positive referral. During our initial visit, she was very professional and helpful, and the facility seemed well run.

In October 2025, I paid a $855 deposit via Zelle to reserve boarding and requested a refund after canceling. After multiple follow-ups, I was told the refund would be processed. I was later informed that the refund had been sent to the wrong person and would be corrected, with a commitment that it would be completed by February 18, 2026. Unfortunately, I never received it, and there has been no resolution since. I've attempted to follow up via phone (calls are no longer being accepted), WhatsApp (messages are read but not responded to), and email, but have not received any response. At this point, I am still waiting on the refund and have had to pursue formal channels to resolve this. I hope this can be resolved promptly.

Unfortunately, this ended up being one of the most upsetting experiences I've had with a veterinarian. My cat had gotten covered in car oil and likely ingested some of it because she was scared and I couldn't catch her right away. By the time I finally did, she had gone downhill. She had lost weight, was drooling, her tongue was sticking out, and her mouth looked burned and ulcerated. I was scared and brought her in because I needed help fast. When Dr. Saini looked at her, it felt like he wrote her off almost immediately. He looked in her mouth briefly and told me it was a tumor and that she would not have a good quality of life. I asked more than once if it could be an ulcer instead, especially because of the car oil exposure and the burns in her mouth, but he still said it was a tumor. There was very little explanation, very little compassion, and no real sense of urgency. What bothered me the most was that I had to point out that she was clearly having respiratory distress before that was even addressed. Only after I kept asking questions did labs and X-rays come up. By that point, I honestly had no confidence in the care being provided and chose not to move forward with testing there. The next day, I took her to another vet. They diagnosed an oral ulcer, not a tumor, and started treatment right away, including IV fluids and oxygen. That was heartbreaking because I feel like her care was delayed when she needed help the most. I know not every diagnosis is easy, and I don't expect any doctor to be perfect. But I do expect compassion, urgency, and a willingness to actually listen when an animal is clearly suffering. I left feeling like my cat was dismissed instead of helped, and I would not feel comfortable bringing another pet here.

We stopped daycare when I question whether he needed food and they brought back a bag that was never opened. I brought our updated vaccine list and they didn't even request it. Rules do not seem to followed. Excuses are made for concern we questioned. We stopped going. Again we were in a situation and had to leave him. Never again will we trust Pet Dynasty or anyone at this point. It's not worth the gamble. ****Having him dirty from playing is one thing. Having him smell of piss is another. And NO he does not pee where he sleeps. Again another issue put back on us and not taking responsibility from not taking care of our animal. And MY HUSBAND and myself know what he should look like. No he does not need a personal attendant, he just needs to be cared for. But he was one of TOO MANY allowed to be here safely. We WILL NOT come back.

    We have been taking our pups to Pet Dynasty for many years. We had two, once recently passed due…read moreto seizures, and little Lulu was heartbroken! She is 7 and has known Brisco her whole life, he was 11 1/2 when we had to put him to sleep. We brought her here for a 'sleepover' recently, a month since Brisco died, first time she came alone, and they took extra special care of her knowing what she was going through. She was groomed to perfection, and we could tell she really enjoyed her time there, playing with other pups and with the staff. Carlos is the best, and his team is exceptional. Will never take any pups of ours anywhere else.
