This is the asshole he needs to get fired he's racist and extremely disrespectful!!!!!

Hector is horrible I don't know who hired this asshole . Today I came in to get spray for fleas for my dog I sprayed a little in my hand to make sure my dog wasn't allergic he came up to me and to stop spraying in the store which I wasn't then he proceeded to harass me and follow me around the store and every isle and standing and staring at me when I wasn't spraying just continuing to shop for my dog when I was walking. I noticed my dog had some dirt on his fur, so I was rubbing him to get it off of him. He hector came up to me and said that I was taking out fleas and spreading them around his throat, which is very much hurtful and incorrect, then proceeded to kick me out of the store very rudely when all I wanted to do was pay for my items when he kicked me out of the store I put my items on the aisle and he laughed in my face and said I knew you weren't gonna pay for it that made me feel like he was very racist because I don't understand why he thinks that I wouldn't pay for it. He was screaming at me in front of all the customers making me look crazy just because I asked to buy my stuff. He told me that he'll check me out. I told him I don't feel comfortable because of how disrespectful he's being to me for him to check me out I want somebody else too. He stood there and started screaming my face to get out of the store and I left. Do not shop here. It's awful in their racist.

They just cut too much

We have been bringing our pups to this place for nail trims. Strangely enough, whenever we arrive for drop in service the groomer goes on break. ? We can't make an appointment for a nail trim, but they can't accomodate us. They only have one groomer working at a time. If they ever get staffed again, maybe we'll come back.

The bottom is all dead fish
Marisol G.

My little one volunteered to bring little fish to her class for the fish tank. We went to PetSmart and unfortunately there were two fish tank completely neglected. When I asked the workers what was going on? They said they put a work order two weeks ago and PetSmart said they'd have to buy a replacement for the filtration . I'm sorry but WHAT?? You guys literally sell those parts at the store just swamp it out so the fish don't just die. Against my better judgement I bought the damn fish and some died as soon as they were being brought out of the tanks, others died on the way home... There is also a parrot desperate to go home . I honestly wish I could've bought them all

I took my French bulldog Cash in for a luxury package with everything included on 12/9/2023 and was greeted by the whole team. They were very nice and explained all the details since my frenchie has very sensitive skin. I chose the hypoallergenic shampoo and conditioner. Donald bathed my frenchie trimmed his nails cleaned his ears and he did an amazing job I'm very happy with the grooming and will be back again thank you so much!

Grooming: Maria D. took great care of my Toby. I loved how the haircut turned out. Overall, I am very happy and will be returning.

One cricket

Most expensive cricket ever, my gecko better enjoy this.. Went for a box of cricket's but only one came in the box .

Dead fish.

Dead fish. I told an associate and she just KEEPS saying she'll call someone and it's been 10 minutes no one has came. The other fish are trying to eat him. This is not okay

Santiago and Javier and The crew went above and beyond today for both the animal rescue I volunteer for and my school I teach at. I usually but my dogs food and kittens things at PS and it is always clean and helpful. . Today they picked an amazing rescue give tons things to. And they filled up six bags of donated stuffed animals and sent with the rescue. The rescue gave to my school and over 200 of our 600 kids got stuffed animals today. These are kids with very little so this means so much. I appreciate the kindness of this store and all they did for my biggest 2 passions today.

I found this in clearance section for $3 ! LOVE
A C.

They're really nice and someone ALWAYS asks me if I need help! I guess I look lost all the time haha . Even though it's a small location they have more stuff than you expect. They have a lot of harnesses and leashes ( better than Target) and lots of dry foods options for dogs and I was told if my girl doesn't like the food I can bring the open bag back with a receipt which is good to know .

Do not bring your dog here for grooming.  Groomer Cassie , who showed up late and Meely, the salon manager with attitude.

Do not take your pet to the location on Van Nuys blvd. Please, if you love your pet. I dropped my dog off and pick him up and he has an open cut on his face. It wasnt there when I dropped him off and they said nothing when I picked him up. When I dropped of at 930 am the first person I came in contact with Meely, I think she is the salon manager . Unprofessional and rude. These people ate not vets, so dont diagnose my dog . Wash and cut. I come back to show pictures of the dog and get a refund and Javier the floor manager gives me a message from the store manager who is not working, that he suggest I not bring my dogs back. Two yorkies. I would never bring my dogs to this location again and suggest anyone with a dog not bring them here. Meely salon manager said this was there. Um why did you allow service , why lie and or not tell me at pick up.

Tired from his last day

See all

When I get lucky...I get LUCKY! I found this amazing group…read moreof people off of Yelp, and the 5 Star rating is 100% deserved. I have two pups: Archie and Charlie. I want the best for my puppies, so I asked so many different people where and how they trained their dogs. I received a few suggestions, but decided to do my own search...and I'm glad I did. Leo (Owner) and his amazing team of trainers TRULY care about the pups they train. Leo came to my home and wanted to meet me and my pups before I had to decide on making any decisions. After sitting down with him for about half an hour, I knew I found what I was looking for: Someone who wants me to have healthy and happy dogs. I signed up for the in-home training at first which is Leo coming to the house and training me on how to train my puppies (Archie and Charlie just turned 6 months and started with Leo and his team when they were 4.5). Very quickly, I realized I could not handle training both these puppies the way they needed to be trained. I discussed with Leo and decided to do a Board & Train. I like the schedule because I get to take the puppies on the weekends to spend time with me. Don't get me wrong, you NEED to train your pups on the weekends, but it's worth it and FUN. Archie has become the Puppy King (no offense to other puppies or their owners )). Charlie has a lot more energy, but has improved immensely! Leo's trainers are so caring. I feel my dogs get love with their training when they're not with me, and I couldn't ask for more. I see their excitement whenever I visit about improvements and milestones that Archie and Charlie achieved. They gleam with as much pride as I do. I honestly don't know where my pups OR I would be without the help of this AMAZING Team! If I could give 10 stars out of 5 stars, I would!

Bark Busters is a great find! $1595 for unlimited sessions for your dogs lifetime ($200 for…read moreadditional dog). Definitely the cheapest dog training I've found out there. Apparently their business is in 3 different countries so you'll still be able to continue the training if you move someplace else. Stephanie is a wonderful trainer with Bark Buster. During our initial meeting, she explained my dogs' behaviors clearly and how I could address them better so they understand. I wasn't expecting such fast results, but my walk with them the next morning was unbelievable. For context, I have a 3 y/o M Doberman/Husky (neutered) with attention seeking & hyperactive issues. He's aggressive with other dogs & people on walks, and pulls hard on the leash. My other dog is a 2 y/o M Malitpoo (neutered) who barks at everything inside & outside the house. For the first time ever, using the tools & tips from Stephanie, my D/H was looking at me & walking by my side the entire time. We came up on 3 individuals with big dogs on separate occasions , but my dogs actually listened to me to sit and they just stared at me as the dogs passed them. although they saw the other dogs, they remained calm (no tensed bodies & pointy hair) and didn't bark. My D/H is still learning, but from that walk I knew I chose the right trainer for my dog. Can't wait to see how much more my dogs improve so they can truly enjoy their life to the fullest.

Our new rescue dog started to get aggressive on the leash and bark more every day. But once Steph…read morecame over and taught us some strategies, our dog quickly transformed. I mean it - we saw a tiny change after the first day alone, then after a full week of consistent training, he was less reactive on the leash, less barky, and just seemed generally more relaxed/less afraid. Our older dog has even shaped up, too! Steph has made our lives so much easier, and we're all calmer for it!! 10/10

I can't say enough great things about Greg our trainer! He worked with my dog Truffle a couple of…read moreyears ago and gave us an amazing foundation. Fast Forward Life happened, routines changed, and I'll admit I wasn't consistent with continuing the training as I should have been. Over time, I started to notice some old behaviors creeping back in. Reached out for some fine-tuning, and within just a few days, my pup and I are completely back on track. It's incredible how quickly Greg was able to assess what was needed and get us refocused. Not only does he train the dog -- he gives us humans tools to succeed -- which makes all the difference (if you keep up the work). If you're looking for someone who truly cares about long-term results and is there when you need a reset, or help I highly recommend Greg! We're so grateful to have our confidence back and in a good rhythm again! Jas & Truffle

We cannot thank Gregg enough for the incredible work he did with our rescue German Shepherd puppy…read more We were struggling with significant leash pulling and dog aggression, but Gregg's impact was immediate--he showed us positive progress on the very first day. We opted for a one-week Board and Train program, and the results were night and day. Gregg kept us updated throughout the week, and by the time we picked her up, her leash manners and social aggression had improved drastically. Beyond the initial issues, Gregg went the extra mile by teaching her solid foundation commands. Gregg also performed a home visit to ensure the training transitioned to our home environment and successfully moderated a meet-and-greet with our neighbor's dog--something we had unsuccessfully attempted many times before. His methods were gentle and effective. We are so grateful for his help and highly recommend him. Thank you again Grgg

Top-Tier Master Trainer! Brett transforms crazy dogs by training the owners.My German Shepherd,…read moreLucy, was in a shelter for over four months before I got her at around eight months old, so you can imagine how completely chaotic, spastic, and misbehaved she was. I was entirely overwhelmed and at my wit's end trying to manage her behaviors. When I hired Brett, I'll admit I fought him along the way on some of the training protocols--but in the end, he was correct about EVERYTHING. The most vital thing for difficult or frustrated dog owners to understand is that Brett's training isn't just about fixing the dog; it is primarily about training YOU, the owner. He provides an exceptional structure and leadership framework, but it only works if you are willing to check your own habits, get on board, and consistently follow through as a pack leader. His methods are incredibly kind, humane, and highly effective at correcting severe behavioral issues. Today, I am so incredibly happy with how my once-crazy dog has turned out. Thanks to Brett, Lucy is a wonderful companion who listens perfectly, handles major environment changes like moving to Downtown LA beautifully, and doesn't react to other people or animals anymore. Having her in my life has truly become the amazing journey I always hoped it would be. If you are willing to put in the work on your end, Brett is absolutely the best master trainer you can find!

Brett is fantastic. We have worked with many different trainers to help with our rescue pup Teddy…read more(3.5, labradoodle) with little to no lasting success and we were starting to worry. Teddy a sweet pup but struggled with anxiety, reactivity, resource guarding and was VERY sensitive to being touched and would often lash out or try to bite. We were really worried about how to help him and how to curb some of these bad habits we'd no doubt reinforced with our own behavior. When I called Brett for the initial consult, he was patient, understanding but also honest and direct about the time and effort it would take and the changes we would have to make to have a real impact. We were open to the feedback and committed to making a change in and out of our home. WOW. We've been working with Brett consistently for 3 months and Teddy is like a new dog. He is calmer, happier, more obedient, and much more confident and tolerate of being touched (especially on sensitive areas like his paws!). Our friends and family have all been shocked at the noticeable difference in Teddy's overall demeanor (happier and calmer!) and behavior. Our groomer asked us what had changed as he was so much calmer and happier to deal with. I want to be clear this is no "magic pill" we put in the work but with Brett's guidance and structure, we cannot believe the results. Teddy is of course still a work in progress and we have more work to do, but seeing the progress he's made in such a short amount of time with Brett's thoughtful approach has been so exciting. Brett truly understands dogs and their psychology and this makes him a true expert. Just know that part of the training process is training your pup but also training yourself to adjust your own behaviors to create a positive outcome long term for everyone. We cannot recommend Brett enough!!!

I am here to update my review now that I've experienced the City Dog 1 and the Nature Dog 1…read moretraining classes offered by Canis Behavior. You can find all the classes that they offer on their website along with a calendar that shows approximately a month and a half in advance so you can plan around it. I initially wanted to start out with City Dog classes but they were full so I signed Cheska up for the Nature Dog class first. Brent teaches each series and he's very upbeat and makes all the classes fun and packed with knowledge. When I took Nature Dog, I will be honest I was really nervous and didn't believe that Cheska could be trusted on a long line away from me. During the first class we used 15 foot lines to practice and 15 feet felt sooooo far away to me. I'm looking back now laughing because now I'm using 50 feet of line at the park. In Nature dog you learn how to keep your dog within your radius, allowing them to sniff and explore within that radius while perfecting your dog's recall in this class as well as being able to tell them commands from afar and they follow it from farther than right next to your side. I feel like Cheska blossomed in this class and the trust between her and I sky rocketed. When I took City Dog class we met at the Topanga mall area and this is really where you get to train in real life scenarios. At this mall you've got people walking by, you've got little kids running at you from all directions, you've got other people with their dogs who are just hanging out in the area, and more. So many good learning experiences all in one place. Brent really does go through every possible scenario of what you should do if you run into these types of things as well as how to position your dog while in public. To top it all off, you will also learn using stairs, elevators and escalators with your dog! Seeing all our dogs going up one by one on the escalators is the cutest thing I've ever seen Lol. In the end, Nature Dog was my very favorite class and I believe Cheska excels in this. Being in Nature is what animals were made for. I am already signed up for Nature Dog 2 and can't wait. As soon as more City Dog series come out I will take those as well. With these classes Cheska is becoming well rounded and she isn't confused, she seems to understand the difference of scenarios when we go out. The goal has always been to be able to take her everywhere with me, and through the help of Brent, Hunter, and everyone else at Canis, this dream has come true!

I made an appointment and met with Brent and Kaitlyn and after an hour with them, I could tell it was the right fit. Romeo completed and graduated the 4 week day training program and just 6 months old! I appreciate everyone who works at Canis who we encountered every day, but I specifically want to give a HUGE shout out Romeo's trainer, Kaitlyn. I loved getting the text updates with pictures and just keeping me informed on how he's doing. If I noticed any bad habits at home, I would let Kaitlyn know and she instantly would work on it with him, as well as tell me how to continue the training process at home. We even discussed bringing Romeo back when he's a little older to complete 2 more weeks of training, which I will happily sign him up. He's also in the process of doing privates and the City Dog class to continue his training process. I also boarded Romeo for 4 nights during his training and everyone made it an easy and safe place to leave him while I was out of town. Overall, I would highly recommend Canis to anyone who is looking for dog training. Thank you to the entire Canis team!

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience has honestly been one of the most…read moredisappointing customer service experiences I've had in a long time. To start on a positive note: the instructors at Zoom Room Sherman Oaks are wonderful. They were kind, patient, knowledgeable, and great with my puppy. I truly have nothing negative to say about the training staff themselves. Unfortunately, management completely changed my perception of this business. When I first reached out about enrolling my puppy at just 3 months old, Diego was extremely responsive, accessible, and accommodating. At the time, it felt like he genuinely cared about helping me get started early and setting my puppy up for success. Looking back now, it feels more like the priority was simply making the sale. I purchased a 20-class package and completed about 10 sessions before I was involved in an accident that medically took me out for several months. Once I recovered enough to return, I was excited to continue training and finish the remaining sessions I had already paid for -- only to suddenly be told that my classes had "expired." Here's the issue: nowhere during the sales process do I remember this being clearly explained, nor is it something that stood out on their website when I enrolled. Had someone transparently told me, "These classes must be completed within X amount of time or you lose them," I would have understood the terms upfront. Instead, I was left feeling blindsided after dealing with a serious medical situation that was completely outside my control. What made this experience especially frustrating was how differently I was treated once I needed help instead of making a purchase. Diego suggested I contact the Culver City location because they are corporate-owned and might be able to approve an exception. Their staff was incredibly kind, empathetic, and accommodating. They even told me they personally did not understand why Sherman Oaks would not work with me given the circumstances surrounding my accident. Unfortunately, because Sherman Oaks is independently owned, Culver City could not override their decision. At that point, it became increasingly clear that Diego simply did not want to accommodate me. Communication suddenly became difficult. Calls to the office repeatedly went straight to voicemail for days. Messages went unanswered. The number Diego originally provided me to text him through stopped working entirely. Eventually, I called from my office phone instead of my personal number -- and magically the call finally rang through and Diego answered immediately. That moment honestly confirmed what I had already suspected: it truly felt like my number had been blocked to avoid speaking with me. That is beyond unprofessional. When I finally spoke to him, he initially pretended not to know who I was before quickly changing course and stating that "they" would not approve an exception. When I politely asked who "they" referred to, he avoided giving a direct answer. I asked for justification as to why a customer recovering from an accident could not simply finish sessions that were already paid for, especially when another Zoom Room location agreed the request was reasonable. His response was essentially: "Then go there instead." I have been nothing but polite throughout this entire process. I have supported this business from day one. Every class visit included additional purchases for my dog. Yet the moment I needed basic understanding and compassion, I was treated like an inconvenience. Eventually Diego admitted that he had made previous exceptions for me related to cancellations that were also outside my control. Somehow, instead of those accommodations demonstrating reasonable customer service, he used them as justification for why he would no longer help me. That mentality says everything. A good manager understands that life happens. Accidents happen. Medical emergencies happen. Especially in a business centered around pets, people, and community, you would hope kindness and empathy would matter more than rigid policies selectively enforced after payment has already been collected. This entire experience has completely changed my perception of Zoom Room Sherman Oaks. Again, the trainers are fantastic -- but management can absolutely ruin an otherwise great business. He told me that I could speak with Jillian (which I imagine is another manager), but he ended with, "but she won't be approving you either." I would genuinely appreciate the opportunity to speak directly with the owner of this location because this experience was handled terribly from start to finish. Until then, I would strongly encourage potential customers to think carefully before investing large amounts of money here. Based on my experience, the customer care disappears the moment flexibility, compassion, or accountability are needed.
