My sweet kitten…read moreswallowed a foam math cube I must have accidentally brought home from work (I'm a first grade teacher). So I took her to my vet, who confirmed there was an obstruction. My vet doesn't do those kids of surgeries so I was told to go to Jersey Shore (where the young man vet there was incredibly forthright and compassionate. I know they're an emergency room so I expected emergency room prices but they quoted me "best case $9-10k. It could be more" depending on the difficulty of extraction. I just spent $10,000 this past year on surgeries on my dog and I couldn't financially do another $10,000 in the same year. (Yes I have now learned my lesson and gotten pet insurance). Anyway, I left there in tears, called some vets and was told about Dr. Larosa. It was already late. I called True Care and told them what happened. They squeezed me in, were a fraction of the original quoted price and was treated like I was a personal friend. My cat Moonstar has never been better and I am not riddled with credit card debt! I cannot begin to explain the rollercoaster ride of emotions that day from confusion (wtf did she eat? Anything? Just a virus?) to sadness (she really did eat something), to hope (here we go to JS!), to devastation (10k+!), and to end the day with relief and faith restored. Thank you Dr. Larosa. Kind of not related, but thanks to him I also now have a tarantula!

At first when I started going here and taking my puppy here, I like the staff and I like the doctor…read morebecause I felt like they cared now she was supposed to get spayed before she turned a year old. The price was crazy so I chose to take her where I purchased her which was Florida, which cost me $300 to have her paid now I did have her x-rayed in Florida because she was limping and has been since I've gotten her with the x-rays and having her speed and having nine teeth extracted which they only charged me for four my total bill came out to $800 now I went in to drop off some stool to get tested for Giardia and heartworm thank God she came back negative. I also asked one of the workers there to talk to the doctor for a consultation so I can see if my dog really needs surgery because she has lactating patella on her two back legs now this was a month ago till today. I'm still waiting for that phone call. I feel like this practice doesn't care enough to follow up with their puppies.

The woman (Kaleena) who wrote the bad review isn't telling the whole story. Mike and Amy knocked on…read moreher door for 29 minutes. He went to his truck to get his phone and the step broke as he was getting in. That's why he was "tinkering" with his vehicle. How about opening the door and talking to him instead of watching from inside for 20 minutes. Mike and Amy just left my home where they helped turn my 100 lb American Bulldog's negative and seemingly aggressive behavior completely around. While we know we must continue to work with him, we now know what we need to do to help him become a better K-9 citizen. They will not only show you what to do, they will explain why you need to do it. They will also explain why your dog is behaving the way he/she is. Understanding why your dog is behaving badly is just as important as knowing how to correct it. This not only includes handling your dog with basic obedience but having more awareness in social situations and an understanding of your dog's body language which will help you to proactively correct your dog before a closed mouth becomes a bite. Anyway, they were great. Call them. You won't regret it.

Great, taught me how to control my little lady in a matter of one session. Aggression on leash is…read morealmost completely gone since we've been practicing and it's been a week. I went to trainers before him which were horrible experiences, was told to put down my older pitbull and that she was too old to train, that people wouldn't train her because she's a pitbull, and all Mike's recommendations & teaching helped us turn things around for her. She's now much happier and safer as am I. If you are worried about using a prong collar just test it out on yourself first it doesn't hurt, same with a shock collar, I mean that one stings but it's nothing unbearable which made me feel better about using them on my ladies. Gave great recommendations for the collars to buy. Easy to use.

Maybe you're more organized than we are but we were caught in an emergency soon after a move to a…read morenew neighborhood, without cat care when we needed to rush out of town. We spent a stressful afternoon searching and eventually took a chance on BKLYN Petsitter. If you're in the same boat, stop looking. Richard is great. Richard (the sole sitter, despite the corporate-sounding name) is easygoing but also professional. It's a comforting combination and one that we appreciated after a couple of earlier attempts with more well-meaning but gypsy-like sitters. We're cautious, maybe even a little paranoid, about who we give apartment keys to but within five minutes of meeting him, felt reassured. We've had no hesitations about leaving him alone in our home since our return that first week to an apartment that was exactly as we'd left it. In our opinion, he is incredibly trustworthy. It's been two years and Richard's sat for our cats almost a dozen times - often at the last minute because we're so bad at planning ahead. Sometimes it's been for one night, others a week or more. We have no complaints, so finally got off our asses to leave a review. Despite being skittish and a nervous wreck when we returned from trips using other sitters, our one persistently neurotic cat has thrived under his care. She's usually lounging on the ottoman when we return, instead of hiding behind the desk and needing to be coaxed out. The other cat was on a medical regimen for months with as many as 3 different meds taken various ways and at different times. No problem for Richard. On return, our cats have always been healthy, clean, sociable, and remarkably relaxed. Richard's laid-back persona reassured us when we first met him and carries over to his behavior with our beasts, who treat him like one of the family now. He's kind to them, competitively priced, always there when we need him, cleans the litterbox, and can be trusted with our keys. Seriously, stop looking.

Richard is great. I was very nervous about finding a cat sitter because my cat is very attached to…read moreme and needs lots of attention. I have never used a cat sitter and I have had my cat Felix for five years. I finally had to hire a cat sitter and I couldn't be happier with Richard. Before I went away, Richard came to my apartment to meet Felix and me and I was immediately put at ease by his gentle and caring nature. As for the visits (I do 2 a day), Richard does exactly what I ask, and the best part is that he texts at every visit to let me know how Felix is doing. I have used Richard twice so far and I will definitely be using him in the future. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

This is a business that is dealing with people who are grieving and many in the industry take advantage. Not this company.

In the midst of moving, we missed an appointment. A few months later, a chemo appointment went long, and we were late for another appointment. She then, in all her abrupt rudeness, told us she didn't want our business any more - after many years and thousands upon thousands of dollars. She lost a customer who never argued about price or tip. She didn't think, she just went with her mean knee-jerk reaction. She can be rude and impertinent. It's been a few years, but we'll never forget this scowling woman. With someone on the edge like she, I wouldn't leave a helpless animal with her. The only reason I'm posting this now is that I saw her in a store recently and it brought up the bad feelings.

My dog Sparkle, a Bichon, goes in looking like a tramp and comes out looking like a little princess. It's really tough to groom my little "Beagle wannabe" since she is often muddy and knotted from her playtime each day in the park. Appointments are important since In The Doghouse is a one woman operation. I would say to give Pam at least a week's lead time and at Holidays two to three weeks lead time will be necessary. Pam's worth it and there's no other groomer I would trust with my sweet little dog.
