It's hard to believe it's been six years since Teddy first started going to Lucky Buddies! We joke…read morethat we're one of the "OGs" because we've been with Yesi since the very beginning--back when she was caring for pups through Rover, long before Lucky Buddies grew into the incredible daycare it is today. Watching Lucky Buddies grow has been such a joy, but what amazes me most is that their heart has never changed. Even as they've expanded, every dog is still treated like family. Teddy has been loved, cared for, and celebrated every step of the way, and there isn't a single person on the Lucky Buddies team that I wouldn't trust with him. They've truly become part of our village. From daycare and baths to transportation, check-ins, and walks, they've made life so much easier over the years. But beyond the services, it's the peace of mind that means the most. I never have to wonder if Teddy is safe, loved, or happy--I know he is. As I prepare to move away, one of the hardest things to leave behind is Lucky Buddies. I honestly don't know how I'll ever find another place like them. They've set the standard for what exceptional dog care looks like, and I will forever be grateful for the love they've poured into Teddy over the past six years. Thank you, Yesi, and the entire Lucky Buddies team, for loving Teddy as if he were your own. It truly takes a village to raise a pup, and I don't know how I would've done these last six years without ours.

I would strongly caution anyone considering Lucky Buddies for cat boarding. We used this facility…read morefor years, but our last two experiences were bad enough that I would never leave my cat here again. The cat boarding area itself has deteriorated significantly. On our recent visits, the room was dirty, visibly soiled, and smelled very unpleasant. For a facility that is supposed to house cats for extended periods, I found the condition of the space unacceptable. More importantly, during my baby's most recent stay, he was severely distressed while being handled by staff. When they attempted to put him into his carrier/bag, he defecated on himself and was returned to us covered in feces and visibly shaking. This was incredibly upsetting to witness. Lucky Buddies later apologized and acknowledged that he had been mishandled by their staff. What followed was equally disappointing. Despite repeatedly following up, I did not receive the updates or communication I expected regarding what had happened. While they apologized, there was no meaningful rectification, no clear explanation of what would change, and nothing that gave me confidence that the same thing would not happen to another cat. Poofy is still recovering from what was clearly a very stressful experience. We have noticed behavioral changes since the incident, particularly increased fear around handling outside the home. And now, after acknowledging what happened and apologizing for it, Lucky Buddies has deactivated my account. I find that response extremely troubling. Rather than meaningfully addressing a longtime customer's concern after admitting that their staff mishandled an animal in their care, their apparent response has been to remove the customer. Cats are not small dogs. They require calm environments, clean spaces, patient handling, and staff who understand feline fear and stress. Based on the condition of the cat room during our last visits, the lack of communication despite follow-ups, the handling of Poofy, and the way the complaint was dealt with afterward, I would not recommend Lucky Buddies for cats. We trusted this facility for years. Unfortunately, the standard of care we experienced during our last two visits was completely different from what we had come to expect. I genuinely wish we had stopped using them sooner.

There aren't many trusted rabbit sitters in the area considering the area has far more dog and cat…read moreowners (I get it as we also have a dog and cat ourselves!) Our rabbit is very important to us so I set out to find the best possible pet sitter in the area for peace of mind, that was when I stumbled upon Furry Friends Pet sitting. We boarded our beloved senior rabbit (who is a very sassy bun) for 11 days as we had to leave for an overseas trip. Barbara is very great at communication from the first contact all throughout the duration of rabbit boarding. Questions are specific as in which veggies are most preferred, hay preference, vaccine and vet information. They also provided an enclosure with toys and hidey spots so all we had to do was drop our bun off in a carrier. She would send daily videos and photos along with detailed updates (like how she would lounge all day and snack on her hay and list the veggies she was fed). Barbara shows a lot of experience as she has a variety of veggies as well as regularly cleaning out the water bowl and tidying the enclosure. She would also spend time petting and changing up the toys and tunnels as well. Receiving texts on our bun was something I looked forward to during our trip as I would see how relaxed and comfortable she was! If you are looking for an experienced rabbit sitter in the area, I wouldn't hesitate to inquire here! Thank you so much for watching our bun! Photos below are from Barbara's daily updates.

TLDR: We wholeheartedly recommend working with Raschel to improve the mutual understanding,…read morebonding, and happiness between any dog owners and their beloved dogs. Context: We're introduced to Raschel by our friend who witnessed our struggles with the young energetic bernedoodle puppy. After the initial evaluation and call, we immediately built up trust and had good feelings with Raschel, and started private sessions from June 2022 to Jan 2023 with her. The outcome: Today my puppy is one the most praised dogs on the block. Everyone was impressed by how well-behaved, calm and non-reactive he is now, and one of our neighbors even followed our suit to work with Raschel after seeing our success. My Takeaway: there might be a lot of great canine trainers, but Raschel is at the top of her game. She impressed us by these rare characteristics: 1) Owns a great training system: my observation is that dog training for Raschel is beyond behaviors itself, but more of a philosophy of how humans connect and co-exist with their furry companions. Raschel pushes for the mindset changes for the owners which will inevitably translate to their dogs' continuous development on a daily basis. 2) Masters impeccable and personalized communication skills with owners. She was able to communicate in a way which is so easy to grasp for owners and at the same time to establish her credibility seamlessly. Very serious about what she does but also a super kind and lovely person to begin with. 3) Holds a upright value in career and life in general. All in all, I'd recommend Raschel in a heartbeat especially if you'd like to provide your dog a high-quality, joyful and full-filling life which every animal deserves.

If I could add a few more stars to this review, I would. I wish I would have met Raschel when I got…read moremy first Boxer back in 2001. He was a good dog, but oh-so-challenging to manage. I honestly thought Boxers were a stubborn, high energy breed that were hard to manage, and that was that. He was a love around the house but boy would he bark at other dogs. His negative traits didn't stop us from getting Boxer #2. Again, my best buddy at home, but super reactive with other dogs. I tried to train her and sought help from 3 different people. Nothing really worked, and she was impossible to take on walks. A couple years ago, a friend of mine began training g sessions with Little Wolf and I began seeing her and her dog on Facebook. I was in awe of the progress they were making! When I knew I was getting my third Boxer, I contacted Raschel and had a consultation before I brought my puppy home. I didn't waste a minute because I knew I needed all the help I could get. We began our first round of training sessions when Brandy was nine weeks old. My dream was to have a buddy I could take anywhere with me, and thanks to Littke Wolf Pet Care, Brandy goes camping with us, she loves Sam's Chowder House in Half Moon Bay (and any place that allows pets on the patio!), taking walks anywhere, and spending time at my mom's house. Brandy's life has been forever changed for the better because we had the RIGHT trainer. Additionally, I never thought I could have backyard chickens, but I now have 5 chickens and Brandy has yet to bark! Raschel helped me help Brandy be the best dog ever and perfect for me and my family.
