We also just had or first training session with AJ and I'm so excited to implement her training methods that don't require and e-collar. The e-collar is optional and can be used on certain situations, but I saw her techniques with him work without the ecollar.. I'm so glad I scheduled the training session and will continue to schedule training session with her! Her training techniques are soo effective.

During my dogs stay I received daily updates, pictures, and videos. What transpired during this time I can truly call miraculous. My overly playful, rambunctious dogs transformed. I was never able to walk them because of their pulling and my fear of tripping. I am now able to walk both dogs at once! Incredible... The sit, stay, and come when called. A.J and Hayden, the trainers, never raised their voices and focus on complementing good behavior. I never heard the word "no"! They were also very patient with me as I learned the new skills it would take to carry on this training at home. My dogs had a blast! Pack walks, hikes and pup cups. I can never fully express my amazement and gratitude for the transformation. The level of professionalism while still making this fun for the dogs was beyond anything that I could have imagined. My dogs are my world and the trainers understood that completely. I cannot recommend Bark Collective enough. It was the best thing for my dogs and for me!!!

They send photos and detailed updates after every visit, which we really appreciate. A few months ago, we rescued a puppy who was quite nervous around new people and other dogs. Mary and Myrlene have patiently worked with him during walks, and we've seen a remarkable improvement--he's now much more confident and relaxed. What stands out most is how genuinely they care for our dogs, treating them as if they were their own. That's very important to us. Our dogs get so excited when they arrive! We highly recommend OC Pup Pals!

She is reliable, caring and knowledgeable. She works to accommodate my schedule and shows up when she says she will. She gives me updates by text of how my pugs did on their walk and alerts me if she has any concerns about their health. She was also aware on our first meeting that pugs can overheat easily (due to their short noses) and made it a point to say that she would be careful with them on hot days. She came over before I ever used her services for a meet and greet to understand my needs and to meet my pugs. I believe she is expanding her services also to Huntington Beach soon. I definitely recommend her if you need pet care!

My husband and I are really busy with work and PBF always accommodates our schedule and do what they can to make sure our needs are addressed. We recently also had a baby in the last year and pbf has helped accommodate us as we move into our next chapter of having kids. Even when we had to go to the hospital when the baby came, the owner helped us schedule the pups walks and transportation to our pet boarding facility. They are simply great and amazing and I never worry about our pups and trust each and everyone of the walkers in my household. I highly recommend them.

In the past 7 yrs the only people I have ever left Popeye with is my dad, or Madison. He is small/fragile (he unfortunately has many health problems) and the last thing I want is to be worried about wether he is being cared for properly or not. When I leave Popeye with Madison I know he is in loving hands. Madison is very attentive, compassionate and truly loves your dog as much as she loves her own. She texts updates and pictures of your dog so you can see how happy they are with her. I feel for the amount of personal care she provides she is very well priced. I have friends who "board" their dogs and pay the same, or more, which is absurd in my opinion. I would never board my baby! When Popeye is in Madison's care I know he is happy and constantly being loved on. What more could you ask for?

I've been jumping around quite a bit with the people I pay to watch and walk my dogs on work days,…read moreand that's because I can't really seem to find anyone trust worthy enough. I've had some lie about the service they provide and not actually properly walk and care for my dogs, and others that aren't reliable in terms of schedule leaving me stranded with a job to attend and dogs to watch over all at the same time. Alexa was referred to me by a family member that uses her service and on a day that my usual dog caregiver couldn't make it because of another "family emergency", I decided to give her a call and try her out. To be honest I wasn't expecting much, I've been so disappointed with these services that I was made to think that they all just suck! But that feeling soon came to a definite change! Met with Alexa at my house in Newport (punctual: YES), I found her to be really sweet and genuine. Her energy levels were really high too and she reminded me of a track athlete with her fitness and physic. Her pricing is fair, around exactly what I've been paying so that was an easy transition, but what really stood out to me and really made me change my point of view of these services is the fact that Alexa provided me with LIVE UPDATES and the ROUTE taken along with VIDEOS and PICTURES!! Whattttt!!! Unreal bonus !! I was sold right away! Later on, came home and found everything to have been done perfectly with my dogs. Walked, fed and cared for. In conclusion, my experience was perfect. I'm so relieved to have found Alexa. Being honest, genuine and loving to my dogs goes along way with a customer like myself. Great work Alexa and keep it up! See ya soon!
