I first met them at an adoption event where they partnered with the Martinez animal shelter. They gave complimentary baths to all the shelter pups at the event. Even my foster pup- Susannah.

As soon as he was able we dropped him off for his free training consult, that's right, I said FREE. Who does that? Well, Karin does. I cannot express how much Goose has learned while attending day training with Karin, not to mention the fact that she has been amazing at helping me and my partner navigate through some rough patches in his normal behavioral development from puppy to adolescent. I love that I get updates throughout the day with pictures and the activities/training that are being done and to see Goose enjoying his time with dog friends too! Every time we go to drop off Goose is beside himself with excitement to see Karin, which is a clear indicator to me that he too approves and enjoys his time spent there. The long and short of it is, I would recommend Karin, and do, to anyone who is looking for an amazing dog trainer who has compassion, patience, and an amazing understanding of dog behavior!!

His approach is positive and supportive, and he is great at encouraging and keeping us on track when we encounter hiccups or new challenges. Beyond obedience and day-to-day behavior coaching, he's training us in scent work, which has been an excellent activity to funnel Sydney's boundless energy and drive. He's done such a good job that we passed all three scents in our very first ORT! All this combined has allowed Sydney and I to bond and have more fun together.

There is no one better than Scott when it comes to taking care of our beloved Boston Terrier Wally…read more We absolutely trust him and know he is in loving hands when Scott is at our house. Wally has glioma (incurable brain cancer) and is susceptible to seizures so he needs meds 2x daily at specific times.

She's very responsible and accommodating, I trust my babes with her 100%. I use her services when going on a long vacation, weekend getaway or planning a late night out and need someone I trust to stop by and feed the boys dinner and give them love/playtime. Suzanne leaves detailed daily notes so you know when she came by and what she did, love this log aspect when returning from a long trip.

One of my kitties can be pretty shy around new people but Jerry was able to get him to warm up and receive some pets and cuddles.

I would definitely recommend the Pet Nanny the next time you need someone to help out with your furry friends.

Jerry is great with sending photos and updates so I know the dogs are happy. Glad I found them and highly recommend!

When we travel, I never have to worry about our cat Joe because I know he's in the very best hands. Because of Lisa's success in befriending him (not as easy task with a skittish, ex-feral kitty), we always find a happy, healthy kitty when we come home. It was amazing to me how Lisa gained Joe's trust and affection, and their bonding has really set my mind at ease. Lisa brings in our mail and newspapers, puts out the garbage, waters plants, and always leaves our house in good shape. I couldn't ask for better, and would recommend Lisa to anyone.

After many other companies, reading all the reviews for months, I decided to contact East Bay dog walkers. I left a message and Mona returned my call within an hour . We talked about my preferences and scheduled a "meet and greet" with Tracy. We have German Shepherd Dogs and not everyone can walk this breed. After our interview we decided to give it a go.... And it was amazing!!! We have Mona to handle date and times and the best dog walker we could ask for our fur babies. We have been utilizing their service for months now , and could not be happier!
