Got an appointment here which we had to wait for as they are so popular but boy was it worth it. Our little dog is terrified of haircuts and can have fear aggression.

It's been nearly 2 years since I brought my dog to Spaw Fitness to be groomed and I have not…read moreforgotten how traumatized he was. He woke me up several times that night after I brought him home. He was agitated, seeking comfort. He'd been nicked and in some spots was shaved so close the skin was exposed. When we first arrived -- before I left him to be groomed -- he responded with panic. I have felt such regret for not listening to him and the plea in his gaze not to leave him. I wonder what he sensed. I will post a photo of how he looks after an excellent grooming elsewhere, and another of how he looked when I picked him up from Spaw. I didn't post a review at the time because I felt the owner was nice and meant well -- but I can't drive past the business without a shudder.

After a 6-hour appointment with Taj, my dog now looks like this. My husband and I are heartbroken…read morethat our dog came back stressed and anxious. We've recently moved to this area, and all our previous grooming experiences elsewhere have been positive. I had provided Taj with clear instructions for my dog's grooming: poodle paws, teddy-bear face, and a summer cut for his body. However, my dog came back with visible razor burns, uneven patches of fur, and nails that weren't trimmed. I was also in absolute disbelief that his face was completely shaved, contrary to our discussion. Along with the traumatic experience for our dog, Taj's interaction with my husband was less than professional. Instead of acknowledging the mistakes, Taj was defensive and lacked courtesy. Given our experience, I am genuinely surprised by the high reviews Taj has received.

Clean facility with spacious amenities, but major holiday staffing concerns forced us to leave…read more We truly wanted to love this facility. Over time, we appreciated how clean the environment was, the spacious accommodations for extended travel, and receiving regular photo updates of our cat while we were away. However, an experience this past holiday season revealed a fundamental issue with holiday staffing and animal care that we simply cannot overlook. After returning home early from vacation, we contacted the owner in the early afternoon to ask about picking up our cat. Following some back-and-forth, she begrudgingly agreed--only to reveal that no one was actually working. She had to call an off-duty employee to see if they could drive over and meet us at the building. This interaction made it alarmingly clear that no staff was scheduled for the second half of the day, and it left us with serious doubts as to whether anyone had been onsite at all that morning. While we understand it was a holiday, clients pay a full daily rate with the expectation of continuous monitoring, timely medication, and basic care. Knowing the building was left unstaffed on a holiday is deeply concerning from a safety and welfare standpoint. As much as we enjoyed the facility's space and cleanliness, we cannot justify paying boarding fees for an unstaffed facility. Because of this, we can no longer recommend them and will not be returning. We strongly advise other pet parents to ask explicit questions about holiday staffing before booking, especially if your cat has any special needs or is in need of daily visits and TLC and as our cat most certainly is while he's being boarded.

After doing a ton of research on cat boarding in the Bay Area, I found Mau, and I'm so grateful I did. After just two stays, they've managed to bring my shy girl out of her shell.

Just don't make them too popular that I can't get in because I'm never letting my cat stay anywhere else!

Well Loved Dogs is a neighborhood gem…read more After just one visit, our dog started pulling us down the driveway so she could spend time with Emma (the resident chocolate lab). There is a big yard and the dogs (usually between 2 and 5) have free access to indoor and outdoor space. We look forward to every day Dahlia spends at daycare. She comes home happy and tired!

It was my great fortune to have Katie answer my ad for a new dog walker at Born To Run SF…read more Clearly a dog lover, I hired her on the spot. She was smart, reliable, responsible and we all thoroughly enjoyed the years we worked together, certainly including the dogs and their people. Quick story: Katie was boarding one of our pack dogs, Ivy, a scrappy little terrier who woke her at 3am to go out. In seconds Ivy was in a full on fight with a racoon. Katie gets right down in the mix to get them separated, no doubt saving the racoon, that Ivy was relentless. Katie, while clearly warm and caring, is also fearless in the face of danger. Hire her to walk you dog.
