Gene's communication was fantastic. Submitted an inquiry online and was able to book easily. Was on time, friendly and quickly bonded with our dog, Winston. Love that he traveled to our home (so convenient and comfortable for Winston). Brought his own mat and played relaxing music. Helped also with assessing Winston's skin/masses and gave great recommendations for providing more relief. Will book again and again! read more

We booked a massage for our dog, Honey, for her 11th birthday. As a heeler/corgi mix, she has a very serious personality and is constantly thinking. Gene was fantastic with her and I could see her fighting the urge to let go of control. By the end of the service, she was leaning into him and I could see her expression was as relaxed as she would let herself be. Gene was so professional and responsive! He brought an immediate calming energy into the room, and I know my girl enjoyed her service very much. Highly recommend Gene for your senior dogs and we have told neighbors and friends about this. read more

My dog has been struggling with Arthritis so i booked him a massage. Gene is wonderful! Left him feeling relaxed. Great customer service and responded the next morning after submitting a request. Definitely recommend him for your fur babies. read more

My boy jumped off the bed and tweaked his back. After we got a green light from our vet, I scheduled an appointment with Gene immediately. He response time is very quick and very polite. On the day of our appointment he arrived in time and listened to my concerns and did a thorough evaluation before he began his magic. My dog is a peoples person but cautious around new people, he took to Gene immediately and passed out while getting his shoulders worked on. After the session he ran around for 30 minutes to show me how nimble he was until he snored for the next 5 hours. Money well spent and definitely continuing sessions to further open the tightness in his back and hammies. read more

The best money I ever spent. My senior Bernese, Henry, loved Gene and the massage. Gene is an expert - it was so helpful to get his feedback on where Henry is experiencing stiffness or pain. Henry immediately relaxed into his session and looked like a whole new dog afterwards. I could see the difference in his energy levels and how he was carrying himself. Gene is a pleasure to interact with, brings an entire professional setup, and encourages owners to stick around and watch the massage. It was a treat for me, too! I even felt more relaxed after, ha. Will definitely be booking again. read more

We loved Gene! My dog needed a little TLC, he's your typical high strung terrier mix and has a hard time just relaxing. He took to Gene right away and although he never laid down, he clearly enjoyed his 40 minute massage and I could feel when petting him afterwards how loose his muscles felt... just like a spa day! We will be repeat customers as The Colonel is a senior and always in need of some extra body work. Highly recommend! read more

Our elder dogs Lily and Nibby(15 years old) are so relaxed with Gene, and the massage really seems to rejuvenate them and add a spring to their step. Gene is professional and the kind of person you immediately feel comfortable having in your home. Highly recommended! read more

What a great day for my baby, of course my pup, he had his first massage. I was a bit hesitant because I didn't think he would sit still. Rambo is now knocked out calm and relaxed. First off Gene was really helpful before meeting him. I found him through Yelp. I called at least 7 different masseuses. I choose Gene because of his professionalism and he was patient with all my many questions. I'm not going to let just anyone touch my dog or more importantly leave my dog with someone I don't know for 30mins. But Gene talked me through how it worked, and introduced himself, and wasn't pushy which I respect. This will definitely become a regular thing for my babies. Rambo really loved it. He is young and healthy I just wanted to give him a birthday gift and honestly was the best one in 6 years. Thank you Gene it was a pleasure meeting you and my babies can't wait to see you again. Oh! And he comes to you. Love!!!! read more

Gene has helped my family's dogs feel so much better! I have a shiba inu who can be shy and not sure picky about pets and cuddles. But with Gene, my shiba relaxes and he leans into the massage because it feels good! Gene is very intuitive on what spots need extra healing. He's very friendly and sweet with both dogs and humans! Highly recommend. read more

When they say "your dog will feel like a puppy again", they aren't kidding! I had the best experience with Dancing Dog Massage. I have two small dogs, a Maltipoo and a Terrier. They both love getting massaged by Gene! Right away I got that Gene is a very kind, soothing and gentle person who truly has a way with dogs. You feel that about him right away. I was also very impressed with his credentials and his vast knowledge of all things canine. He was able to get them to relax immediately and both of them just melted into his hands. The marked difference in both dogs after the massage was astounding - they literally had a spring in their step and were smiling! They are both very active dogs, but they were literally bouncing around the house afterwards. Canine massage is something I will continue to do for my pups; the results are truly amazing! This is definitely a great step in taking excellent care of your pups! read more

To tell the truth I had never even considered a massage for my dog. A friend told me about Gene so I thought I'd give it a whirl since my dog had some minor limping on and off during walks and I figured why not try? I have a Chi/Terrier mix and she is exuberant and hard to pin down to say the least. But after a few minutes Gene had her calm and settled on the mat and I couldn't believe it but she sat still and serene for the entire 30 min massage. She seemed very relaxed and subdued after the massage which never happens! If you're looking for holistic, natural treatments for your dog's comfort and health - I highly recommend giving this a try. My doggie seemed to truly enjoy it! read more

I didn't know that there were doggy masseuses out there! I'm so glad I decided to check Yelp to see if I could book my pup Mochi a birthday massage. Sooo glad I found Gene! Mochi usually barks at strangers when they walk through the door, but she didn't with Gene which is so rare! Gene brought doggy music with him for the session and was very calm and gentle with Mochi. He even got her to yawn a few times between giving him a quick nose kiss! Mochi was very excited after the session, lots of energy walking around wagging her tail. Everyone call Gene and give your pup the best gift ever! Pup heaven! read more

#Shaggy (my black Labrador) just had a massage from Dancing Dog Massage and it was fantastic! Gene (great dog masseuse) was professional, friendly and just an overall dog lover so of course Shaggy loved him. Gene set the mood and atmosphere for Shaggy to get comfortable. He used therapy oils to soothe Shaggys senses, calming music, comfy cushioned mat and a happy smile before getting started. Shaggy got a 50 min massage and every muscle in his body was worked on. Gene found several tension areas on Shaggy and worked them all out. Shaggy felt like a king for those 50 min and felt years younger after the massage! Gene also taught me which areas I can massage Shaggy on my own too! Both Shaggy and I had a great experience with Dancing Dog Massage and would most definitely recommend him to every dog lover that wants the best for their dog. This won't be the last time we have Gene over to massage Shaggy....I have found the perfect birthday present for Shaggy every year! read more

I was being told that my lil guy was heading into early onset arthritis by his vet. We'd limited his activities from playdates in the park and dog agility classes shortly after his 5th birthday. I opted not to go a heavy drug route and look to rest and alternative therapies to assist his recovery and overall comfort. Enter Gene, Dancing Dog Massage! Not only did he give B a pampering to remember, he, being a experienced in vet medicine, told me something different. While working and putting my lil friend into a relaxed euphoric, yet calm state, told me he'd been feeling for signs of arthritis and other "scary" possibilities that I was considering that also put me into a calm state. ;-) Don't get me wrong...WE definitely appreciate the pampering aspect of massage for dogs, but as a #furmama, I also appreciate the professional TLC that comes with spoiling my best friend. Many thanks Gene and we look forward to the next experience!! read more

Gene is probably a gene-ius! He really takes the time to understand and bond with your puppy. And now a word from our puppy: "As you can see from my profile photo, I couldn't be happier! Thank you, Gene--feel free to visit any time. Love, Osito"^_^ read more

Dancing Dog Massage - Osito with Gene after an awesome session. - Holistic Animal Care Near Me

Amazing! Gene is such a kind person and was so good with my senior dog that needed a massage so bad. He loosened her shoulders, got her blood flowing in her legs and had her yawning by the end of his strokes. Not to mention the multiple kisses she insisted on giving him throughout. He had his spa music and mat and was perfectly fine with you hanging around taking any photos etc. Due to my pups elder mobility issues, she can't do much, therefore I can't do much to make her happy besides come home. Gene made her super happy!!! An absolute must for anyone who wants to see their dog happy and I think an awesome gift to give dog lovers. read more

What a way to treat your puppy! Canine massage is completely new to me but you can see the bliss in their eyes as they are pampered. My dog Dude is a nine year old Jack Russell and Gene provided his first doggie massage. Gene was very gentle with Dude as he's got a few creaks in his old bones and provided excellent service. You can tell he has a connection with the dogs and is very knowledgeable. Dude is definitely a fan and I can't wait to get him massaged again. Thank you! read more

When I first heard about a doggie massage, I was not sure what to expect or if it would work. I could immediately tell that my dog Hans was feeling peppier after Gene worked his magic! My dog is a wiggly little guy and I was amazed to hear that he was so well behaved and relaxed for his puppy massage. I am absolutely thrilled with the results and I will be bringing Hans, as well as my other dog to Dancing Dog Massage to keep them nimble and feeling young. Thank you Gene!!!! read more

Mr. Finnegan was very scared when Gene first showed up for his massage today. After a while he became more comfortable and then he was in doggie heaven. I guess like us humans it appears that dogs benefit well from massage too. He is very relaxed and has been snoozing for about an hour now. Thank you so much Gene and Mr. Finnegan will be setting up his next appointment in the near future! read more

Gene was AMAZING! He massaged both of my dogs, Charlie and Gizmoe, and i was blown away! My dogs loved it. I have never seen them so calm and collected. Charlie didn't want his session to end, and Gizmoe was sad as Gene left haha. I will definitely will be requesting Gene's services again! My dogs look, and i am sure they feel brand new! read more

I own a beautiful (but sometimes challenging with strangers) pit bull mix breed. I was a bit apprehensive to let someone massage her as she's never had that done. I can tell you that within minutes of starting, Gene had my pooch very happy, relaxed and putty in his skilled hands. I would recommend Gene and DancingDogMassage.com to anyone and everyone!! Thanks again Gene, we'll see you again soon! read more

As a Master Massage Therapist of 20+ yrs the activity of pampering my pups with massage is a DAILY occurrence in my home. That being said I am NOT trained in canine massage so it was amazing to see how my three dogs responded to a PROFESSIONAL dog massage therapist. I was so excited and curious with this opportunity that I decided to capture the moments in video. As I asked Gene to explain various things about the process he was able to educate me as to all the benefits. I did little 30-60 second snippet videos and uploaded them to my YouTube Channel to be able to share Gene's gifts to all of MY massage clients who are dog owners and lovers. If you want to check them out yourself just copy & paste this link https://youtu.be/BRo_A5KzSxk into your wen browser and watch as many clips as you like! As for my own dogs' experiences... Percy looked like he was going into a comma within seconds of Gene beginning. Percy also came to Gene's side begging for seconds while my 3rd dog was getting her session! Fiona got the most out her session by positioning herself to guide Gene to the areas she wanted worked and she was expressing her joy by licking everything within her reach, lol! Molly who is my senior dog seemed the most grateful. She really enjoyed the mobility exercises of stretching. She completely surrendered to every movement that Gene employed restore her flexibility and vitality. This was such an amazing experience that I have agreed to partner on a new service with Gene called Pup-N-Parent Pampering. Hopefully, YOU love your massages as much as you love your dog getting massages and will experience our new service for yourself! Thanks Gene!

Gene from Dancing Dog Massage came to my house to give massages to my two rescue dogs, Lily and Daisy. I had no concerns regarding Lily, who is very sweet and loves everyone. However, I was concerned about Daisy since, although she is also very sweet, she is very shy around strangers. It usually takes her several meetings before she accepts a "stranger" as a friend and allows that person to approach her and pet her. I was not sure Gene would be able to give her a massage due to her shyness. It was very possible that Daisy would be too afraid to let Gene approach her, and consequently, she would not get her massage. As a result of my concerns about Daisy, I had several conversations with Gene prior to his coming to my house. . As we discussed, my dogs and I met Gene out in front of my house. He knew exactly how to meet a shy dog. He spent time on the ground with me meeting Lily and getting licked all over, while Daisy watched with great interest, actually making several attempts to approach Gene. This was exactly how to meet a people-shy dog. It is something that can't be forced and takes some time. I was very impressed with Gene's knowledge and patience. We went inside, and Gene set down a mat for the massages, and he even brought some soothing music that played during the massages. Lily's massage was first. About 10 to 15 minutes into the massage, Lily suddenly got up and ran around the room like a puppy, approaching Gene in multiple play bows, followed by lots of kisses. I couldn't believe it! It was really clear that Lily loved her massage! Daisy watched all of this and seemed to open up more to Gene. When it was Daisy's turn, Gene worked slowly, and soon Daisy was lying down, thoroughly enjoying her massage! I was struck by Gene's ability to approach and handle my shy dog. After Lily and Daisy ate dinner, they were so relaxed that they both had very long evening naps before bedtime, and both dogs slept well during the night! I wholeheartedly recommend Gene and Dancing Dog Massage. I am amazed at how much my dogs enjoyed their massages. I am especially impressed with Gene's knowledge, professionalism, gentleness, and patience, particularly in dealing with a people-shy dog like Daisy. Thank you, Gene, from me, and Lily and Daisy as well. read more

Gene is incredible! I have a very active husky and was hesitant with how she would respond to a massage, but Gene was professional, friendly, and my dog took to him right away. It wasn't long before my dog was rolling on her back, sitting in front of Gene, and was thoroughly enjoying her first massage. I was amazed and truly captivated by the whole experience. I will definitely be using Dancing Dog Massages again and HIGHLY recommend Gene to anyone who is interesting is treating their pups to a little pampering! read more

The whole experience was fantastic. My dog who is pretty timid and shy with strangers warmed right up to Gene. He was so relaxed, and we could tell he loved it. Gene was very professional, prompt, prepared, patient, and kind. Would def give my dog the experience again. read more

This is one of the best things you could do for your dog! My dog has seen Gene two times. Both times our dog looked and felt completely relaxed and even helped with her frontal leg shaking from the weight on her muscles. Dogs should be cared for the best they can and doing this for your dog at least 1-2 a month would definitely improve your doggies well being! Gene is great and is so kind to our dog! Our dog took a liking to him immediately! If your dog has separation problems he welcomes owners to be next your dog during the massage/treatment to help put dog at ease, especially the first session. Gene is very kind, professional and is very knowledgable in what he does! read more

Gene was fantastic! My dog felt comfortable with him right away and enjoyed a 50 minute massage. She has been suffering with arthritis and I am willing to try anything. I think I have found the solution. Thanks Gene for being so great for Garbo read more

Gene was great! He was very professional and polite. My dog loved the aroma therapy treatment he gave her and she was very calm throughout. He was very calming and worked on the areas that she carries most of her tension while being very clear and concise with me. I would definitely recommend to other pet owners. read more
