They deeply care about both the dogs they watch and the owners. I have never felt more secure leaving our pup than when he is happily romping into their arms. In addition to the best prices anywhere in Marin, they have a pick up and drop off service during the week that makes life so much easier.

Buyer Beware! A mutual dog lover referred us to them and…read moreeven contacted them after we received NO response from emails, phone calls and texts trying to set up a meet and greet. We finally toured the facility and were told we had a 'handshake deal' to board our critter and the contract would be sent 'next week'. No contract ever arrived and we were left to find an alternative facility less than a week from leaving town! How can you trust these people with your loved pet if they cannot even live up to their basic promise to communicate with a new customer? If there was a negative rating it would be well deserved.

We've been using Dessie for grooming for several years. Previously in Novato, recently moved her…read morebusiness to Santa Rosa. We will continue to drive up to Santa Rosa to use Dessie because of the care and attention she gives our 3 cockers. They love her and aren't afraid when they see her. She does a fantastic job grooming our furry kids. She's reasonably priced for the amount of time and care she puts into each grooming. Worth every dollar we pay her. So happy we found Dessie for all our grooming and bathing needs.

Pupwalks is the absolute best dog walking business. All of the dog walkers who have walked my dog…read moreAnnie are very kind, caring, loving, attentive, and experienced. Rob, the owner, is also all of these things. My dog comes home very happy after each and every walk. My dog just loves Dan who is her primary walker and waits by the door on the days he comes anxiously waiting for him. When he arrives for the walk Annie jumps for joy at his arrival. Communication is great as there is a portal where one can message the dog walkers. Each walk I receive a picture of my dog on the walk with the route outlined and a communication from the dog walker. I consider myself very fortunate to have found this great organization. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

Love the digital report cards, which include a GPS map of their route and precise time tracking--it's comforting to know exactly when my pup was walked and where they explored. This service is very reasonably priced for the Marin area, offering top-tier care without the crazy cost. Highly recommend!

Kirk gives that and more! There are lots of people who will walk your dog when you cannot but VERY few people who will be interested in your favorite creature's well being and genuine fun!

I can confidently say that Paws & Go exponentially exceeds other walkers. Sarah is loving, kind, trust worthy and Willie (our 8 year old golden retriever) adores her. We receive pictures while she is with him. He loves the company that Obi brings to the outings and is learning how to break some of his old bad habits. Paws & Go is amazing, neither you or your pet will regret it.

Bianca cares so much for the dogs, is reasonably priced, flexible and worth every penny to keep my pup exercised and stimulated. Going on daily walks for her is much healthier than a doggy daycare because she gets to be out in nature learning new and reinforcing skills like recall and basic commands. My dog has the BEST life and it's mostly because of Bianca.

However placing her in a boarding facility would devastate and probably traumatize her all over again. When we took our recent trip, Carolyn of Little Wags came in twice a day to feed and take care of our very shy, timid kitty. And kitty even came out of hiding to hang out with Carolyn! That speaks volumes about Carolyn and her pet whisperer ways! It was a perfect solution to our situation. Carolyn is calm, reliable, responsible and I will absolutely have Little Wags take care of my pets any time we take a trip.
