We absolutely love Planet Doggy. It's never easy leaving our baby when going out of town, but the team at Planet Doggy always take such good care of our girl, Pâté! The daily updates are so appreciated, and the grooming she receives before she comes home is such a load off our shoulders. We miss her while we're away, but it's such a relief knowing she's in the hands of Planet Doggy! read more

Hi, my name is Charlie and I am a rescue with separation anxiety. My Mom and Dad needed help keeping an eye on me while they work . It took a couple of try's and places till we found the fabulous Fabiola and her loving team. I love going to daycare everyday now. No stress because I am met with a friendly hello and warm welcome. Oh yes, we have outdoor space and indoor space and we go in and out as we please. And....we have parties for holidays. Just look at our St. Patrick's day party where we had home made treats. I love all my friends and caregivers here. Come meet us. I will be your friend and help you get to know all of my friends. You will love it here. Love, Charlie read more

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Planet Doggy. We were anxious about leaving our precious Penny for several weeks after the fires, but Fabiola's warmth made us feel assured she was in the best hands. The staff's attentiveness is truly exceptional. During her stay, they sent us updates which is so important to us. You could see they were genuinely paying attention to her. The care and compassion they showed was incredible. Penny can be a little nervous around other dogs, but the team made her feel so safe and loved. We are so grateful to have found this place. If you're looking for a boarding service that treats your furry family member like their own, look no further. read more

We've taken our big dumb 9 month old doodle mix, Fitzy there a few times for the day and he is so happy and exhausted when he gets home. We just left both dogs for boarding during our spring break vacation and it was great. I received emails and videos while away. I trust my two boys got good care at Planet Doggy All the employees have been very friendly and understanding every step of the way. Highly recommend! read more

I've been bringing my dog here for daycare, boarding and grooming services since July. Fabiola and her team are extremely kind and easy to work with. My dog always has a blast whenever I take her and she's pooped by the time we get home. The payment/invoicing process is a bit different from other places. They just charge the card you have on file and receipt you get isn't as detailed as I'd like it to be. But I can figure out pretty quickly what the payment is for based on the price. read more

They do a great job but more importantly my dog, Cali Girl, a 6 year old labradoodle, loves it there! read more

Planet Doggy - Cali and her new best friend! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Pasadena, California

We have been bringing our two dogs (a border collie and a shepherd/husky) 2x per week for daycare and occasionally for overnight boarding for the past 3 years. We love Fabiola, the owner and Director. She and her staff play with the dogs, ensure safety, and make it fun for most holidays. Today was the Halloween "pawty" which meant searching out hidden treats, cute photos for dog parents, and goody bags to take home. Our pups always come home exhausted. We are retired and send them for play and socializing with other dogs and people. We so highly recommend Planet Doggy! Today was such a special day for them that I had to share this review with our community. read more

We have been taking our 3 year old doodle here for about a year (daycare and boarding). We see Celeste the most and she is awesome! Our doodle is always happy to see her and is completely tired when we pick him up. We've used other daycare and boarding in DTLA and Gardena. The prices are reasonable. read more

going to Planet doggie has been a life-changing experience for my Frenchie! She can't wait to get to Planet doggy and leaps over the steps and runs inside as fast as she can to be with her friends! The staff are excellent and are constantly monitoring the dogs to ensure a safe experience and she leaves a very happy girl! it's a very clean facility and they ensure all the dogs are healthy and vaccinated. read more

Simply, this place loves my little Charlotte! She is excited to go and spend time there - 3 days per week - and then an occasional boarding stint. She just Loves them too! I highly recommend Planet Doggy - and they are extremely reasonable in their pricing structure! read more

Wonderful experience with Planet Doggy. We have a pug and a German Shepherd and they always come back from boarding happy and healthy. Fabiola is thoughtful, conscientious, and most of all loving to our pups. Highly recommend. read more

Planet Doggy took excellent care of our doggy during the two months we were displaced because of the Eaton Fire. They were very kind & supportive of our situation & accommodating with our ever changing timeline for when we'd return home. Having our dog at Planet Doggy provided peace of mind. We highly recommend Planet Doggy! read more

Planet Doggy is amazing! We use their daycare and boarding services frequently. Our German Shepherd mix 'Kuro' and Belgian Malinois mix 'Thor' are high energy and have an absolutely fantastic time. It really says something when your pet cannot wait to get out of the car and go play with their friends. Fabiola and her staff take great care of our pets. We are blessed to have Planet Doggy services. Attaching a photo from their last boarding visit. Look at the smiles! They are clearly having a great time!! read more

Planet Doggy continues to rate five stars. I've been taking my dog there for almost 2 years, for both daycare as well as long-term boarding. The past few months have been a bit upside-down for those of us dealing with the aftermath of the Eaton Fire. Fabiola and her staff have accommodated my crazy schedule, responsive to last-minute requests, and extended stays, while continuing to provide excellent service. Most important to me, they keep my dog very happy, healthy, and safe. Everyone there is friendly, and fully invested in the care and well-being of your K9 family member. And it's always fun to hear back from them on your dog's "day", including the photos/videos of play and special celebrations. read more

Was recommended this play by a friend who uses them after a long time reading reviews and researching local boarding and daycare, and not feeling comfortable with what I found. Was so relieved to find planet doggy, they are kind and reliable and Milo now loves going there. They are also very fairly priced. It's been great for our household for Milo to get out his energy and get in play time while we're at work. We also boarded him overnight when we went on vacation, as our usual sitter was unavail, and it was great to be able to book them and know he was safe and cared for. read more

This is the best doggy daycare/ boarding I've taken my pup Prince Dior to. He gets so excited when I mention the words daycare, and believe me I've tried other places before and no other place compares. I usually board him around the holidays and I always get a cute festive picture of my Prince Dior. Fabiola is always so accommodable and her team is awesome. I highly recommend the place for your pup! read more

Planet Doggy is exactly what my 16-month old terrier mix needs. She hadn't had opportunities to socialize with other dogs before. She is very sweet, shy, but reactive to other dogs when she is on walks. We were looking for a way to socialize her with other dogs in a safe environment and Planet Doggy came highly recommended and it does not disappoint. The owner and staff are very caring, knowledgeable, and understanding. Because my dog is shy, for the first 2 day care sessions she was allowed to go in on Saturdays (daycare service is normally only for weekdays) so that she can ease into a group situation with not too many dogs. The first session was only with dogs her size or smaller, the second one has a mix of larger dogs as well. My dog did well in both sessions. I just can't believe the extra length they have gone to to make my dog feel safe and can enjoy and grow from her experience there. Yes, I highly recommend. read more

Planet Doggy is a wonderful boarding home. They kindly accommodated my two pups last minute when I was in a jam to find care for a week. They sent me a picture of our pups while I was away, and my dogs returned home very happy. I've already booked our next boarding dates. Thank you Planet Doggy! read more

We have been bringing our pooch to Planet Doggy for years! Fabiola and her team are always very communicative and easy to plan dates with. Our pup Lumi has a tendency to be nervous in general but he has adjusted so well in Fabiola's care. Even though we miss him a lot during our travel without him we know that he is having a great time with the pack at PD! read more

We have been sending our dog to Planet Doggy for five years and love them! The staff are so great with all types of dogs, and treat your pup as their own. I always know my dog is in great hands with them. read more

Our Mimi spent 18 days there and came home happy , excited, and content. Fabiola and her staff took such good care of her. We had only adopted Mimi in August and were hesitant to leave her. However, our trip had been planned for months, and we needed to go. They even bought her more food when she ran out. Mimi will visit Plane Doggie again, I'm sure. Thank you, thank you. sincerely, Alex G. read more

Knox LOVES planet Doggy. I went on a cruise and had to board him here for a week. I was so nervous but I saw how much fun he was having online. Ever since he's been hooked. The staff take suck great care of your fur baby. I absolutely love that they plan events for the dogs. They had a Easter egg hunt for treats. They make sure your dog isn't allergic to anything. Give meds and baths if needed, and play with the dogs. Knox starts to get excited as soon as we turn down the street. I love it. Highly recommend. This is the only place I take my dog. I even take him for daycare. read more

We have gone to Planet Doggy for over 10 years and have found it reliable and safe for our pups. The same high quality of service has remained through the switch in ownership to Fabiola. We have used them for daycare, short trips, and long trips (7+ days) and have never been worried while we have been away. First it was Jezebelle and Barney and now it is Odie and Olive and all 4 of them had/have their own unique personalities and the staff at Planet Doggy have treated them all with care and patience. read more

1 year later from 5/2023 post. Our little guy has known PD his whole life from 12 weeks old, he is now 9 years old. This Biz was sold a couple of years ago. I will never leave him in the new owners care again. Fact: My dog has recently been injured twice as well as other canines. Staff is overwhelmed & not properly trained. There is not enough staff to keep an eye on the dogs. There is no control of the pack & gate guarding is happening. 1st incident another dog put his mouth on my dog, he yelped and ran back inside. Which he never does when I am there. When my dog was brought out to me he had saliva on his hair. When checking him at home he had a large scratch on his skin. Treated at home and recovered (things happen). 2nd incident I witnessed gate guarding when picking up my dog. It was so bad that he curled up into a ball to protect himself while crying loudly. Staff did not try to intervene to break it up. Once things calmed down, staff stated that she was the only one there with 20 dogs & was giving a dog a bath when I arrived. I brought my dog home and he could not shake his body nor flail a toy (Sad). My husband gave him a pet on his sides & my dog yelped. He was definitely injured & in pain. Visited with his Vet the next day & he was put on pain meds for 1 week. He is much better now. Other Facts: Website says couches are available for dogs to relax on, new owner removed the couches so dogs are left to relax on the floor. Constant turnover of Staff. The drop-off & pickup area reeks of Pee. Kennel Boarding Dogs are left alone overnight with no human supervision. New owner has installed cameras to watch dogs during daycare as well as at night. However cameras do not take the place of humans for safety. Telling my story for the safety & concern of animals. PD has become just another facility, it is not a loving home as it used to be. There is no such thing as "just a small injury." read more

I took Jackson to Planet Doggy for his first Doggie day care, He was hesitant at first when I left him there, after the second time he was very excited to go in, that make me feel better about leave him there. Fabiola and staff are great, definitely recommend this facility. read more

My dog LOVES going to Planet Doggy. With our busy schedule, this has been a wonderful place to bring our fur baby. The Staff are friendly, and they clearly love each pet that comes through those doors. They do "barks" and crafts, have holiday "paw"ties, and even play games with the dogs. The play area is nice and open, and includes an outdoor area for them to roam around. What I like the most is that all the dogs play together, so my dog gets to socialize with all kinds of other dogs. We love planet doggy and will continue to bring our fur baby here for daycare and boarding. read more

I would like to thank Fabiola the owner of Planet Doggie for her concern for the safety and well being of my "grand dog baby" . Fabiola took the time to discuss the best options for boarding my daughters dog . She was very kind, professional and understanding of our concerns of leaving him without us taking the proper measures for the dog to feel secure because of limited time . I will definitely board with Fabiola and her staff in the future . Thank you for putting the well-being of the dog before profit My family and I appreciate it! read more

Our pup had a great stay at Planet Doggy. As a first time customer they were very accommodating and helped us set everything up (vax records, billing, and drop off/pickup). We recently moved to the area and were in need of a new boarding facility. Happy to say we found it and we will be back to Planet Doggy in the future. read more

My pup and I love Planet Doggy Day Care! She is a little dog amongst many big dogs and I always feel safe leaving her there. The team is warm and welcoming and I know they are taking good care of my pup. I really love that the space has a very home like feel to it and there are many different areas that the dogs have access to, including a front and back yard area. I would definitely recommend Planet Doggy Day Care for your pup. read more

A great, safe and social venue for your family dogs. The owner and staff love their guests up, and provide great care and ability for other fee for service jobs like baths and claw trimming, etc.. Great spot! read more

We came to know Cindy through a good friend of ours who had been taking her dog to Planet Doggy and highly recommended it. We were not disappointed. Cindy first set up an evaluation appointment, which impressed us a lot. We took our senior dog, Howie, a poodle-terrier mix, and he passed with flying colors. We were also given a tour of the place, which is a cage-free environment. Howie loves it there. We also have a Chihuahua-Papillon mix, Rascal, who lives up to his name. We decided to take him there as well, and Cindy has worked wonders with him. She is a great trainer and all the dogs listen to her. Her two helpers are wonderful, too! Howie and Rascal go three times a week and have a blast! Planet Doggy offers boarding as well. If you are looking for a great, safe place for your doggie to socialize and play, please give Planet Doggy a try. It is smaller and less frenetic than other, bigger places, and we think that's a good thing. read more

I stopped by this day care today to check out some of their products in their shop and was disappointed what I saw. The staff member working there was extremely rude. She didn't want to let us in and I wonder if it's because we didn't have an appointment? I'm not sure. She was very sketchy and gave off a weird vibe. When I peeked through the window to check out the doggy day care setup she rudely said "is there anything else I can help you with?" as though she didn't want me peeking in...it was weird. I felt very uncomfortable there. She was not friendly or inviting at all. There was a German Shepard there for day care and when he started jumping up on the gate, the staff member took a can of coins to shake at him and said "no!" very harshly. I would never want my dog treated like that at daycare. The place reeked of a bad odor and the look of the outside makes it feel like jail. Another reviewer describes it as "the place is very run down. the building is a mash-up of wire fences, ply board, and plastic sheeting." Which is exactly how it is. I will not be going back or taking my dog here for daycare. read more

They seemed nice on the phone. However, they do not accept pit mixes and require a minimum of twice a week visits. There are so many pit mixes at the shelter and I'd like to see more daycares accommodate people who want to adopt them. read more

My Fido is a regular here at Planet Doggy. 2x a week and he's a happy dog. Cindy and her staff do a GREAT job of integrating your pup into their pack. They take the time to make sure that your dog will fit in with the dogs already there...that Fido knows where he stands in the pack hierarchy. Very unlike PetSmart where they just shove Fido into the room. Favorite things about Planet Doggy: ++Indoor and outdoor space that the dogs are free to roam around. ++Always available outdoor space for the dogs to go to the bathroom (OUTSIDE on grass or rocks, etc). ++Webcam so you can see your pup while they play ++The rules that Planet Doggy have in place for a pleasant HUMAN experience. (When a human comes, all dogs have to be in a certain area. If you are picking up your pup, they have to wait at the gate (sitting patiently) before only they are let out to greet you.) ++Size of location...there's the front yard, sun room, quiet room, exercise room, etc...It's a whole house and back yard for Fido to run around in. Things I don't necessarily like about Planet Doggy: --There's a 2 day minimum. While at first, I didn't think that I'd be able to take him at least 2 days, now the 2 days comes very easily...best when they are on a schedule. --You have to make an appointment (or be on a regular schedule). There's a maximum number of dogs that they will accept on any day (this is a good thing) so if you don't make an appointment, you may not be able to drop off your dog on the same day). --It's a little more expensive...but you get what you pay for and this place is worth every penny. They also provide grooming services and boarding services. I've never used the grooming, however we have used the boarding and have no complaints. They are kept just like they are at day care, can sleep anywhere they want (cage free) and there is always a human there 24-hrs a day if there are boarders. You bring your own food and they'll feed 2x a day. She also sells a small selection of pet food. Cindy is very active in dog rescuing and disaster preparedness. If there is an earthquake or other disaster, there's nowhere I'd rather have Fido than at Planet Doggy. Her whole operation can be packed up in 30 minutes and she can transport all of the dogs to another location, keeping them in comfort and keeping them calm. I'm happy that my Fido goes to "private school" at Planet Doggy. He's a happy, socialized pup; a happy dog is one who doesn't chew up your shoes. read more

Planet doggie and the owner Cindy and her staff are awesome! She has been the caretaker of my two Jack Russell Terriors for almost 5 years and I totally trust her to take care of them. My dogs Joe and Lucy love going there! It is a cage free enviroment and it takes a strong Leader to keep them under control and safe. Cindy is in control of the pack and all of the dogs know it, which keeps them safe. Cindy believes in creating a pack mentality that know each other and all feel comfortable. That is why she requires a 2 day a week minimum, but you can do half days if you prefer. Cindy's strong personallity is an asset in leading the pack, she truly loves all of the dogs under her care and wants them all to thrive and be healthy. I have recommended two of my friends who have dogs to Panet Doggy and they are thrilled with the care thier dogs receive. I feel so fortunate to have such an excellent place for my dogs to go whether it is for day care or boarding. Susan Helton susanhelton@me.com 626-696-3099 read more

I only trust Planet Doggy to care for my pup. Cindy is very knowledgeable on provide the best environment for your pet. Its all about trust for me and I trust Planet Doggy. I have been taking my pup there for the past 10 years. Cindy makes sure the dogs play nice and does not let them run the place. read more

We have a very large, very excitable puppy who spends 4 days a week at PD. We had tried two other local doggie day cares, however, they were over crowded and seemed to employ individuals who did not know how to manage and redirect our dog's energy. We are tremendously happy with Cindy's expertise with dogs and we have learned so much about how to handle all 75 pounds of muscle! Our dog has learned as well. We are a much happier and harmonious family thanks to Cindy and her professional staff. We highly recommend PD. read more

I've been coming to Planet Doggy for two years now and it's THE place for my baby Yoshi, a Shiba Inu. The time spent for the evaluation is well worth it as it allows your dog to get comfortable with the other dogs and with the new surroundings. My little Yoshi has learned manners and I love the way all the dogs listen and behave when Cindy and her staff give them orders to return to their play area after being outside. Yes, it's an old house but I would prefer that than leaving them in a new building where there is no love nor comfortable setting. Come on, do you know of any other place that has bay windows and two sofas, another room that's the quiet area with a fish tank and soft music? Then there's the front patio and a back area as well as the office and kitchen area that all the dogs are free to roam. What other place can provide a home away from home? Even though I moved to Ontario, I still take my Yoshi there when I can, not only for day care but for grooming as well. One time I went to pick him up and the dogs had just finished a "birthday party" with cake that the birthday dog's parent had brought in. It was so cute!! Trust me, if anyone says anything bad about Planet Doggy , it's probably because they couldn't get in or they're just jealous. read more

My extremely energetic Eskie puppy just started daycare at Planet Doggy and I really couldn't be happier. It's a little early for me to write a review but I felt compelled to address some of the review comments I've read because I don't want interested parties to be misinformed. For example, I see people saying the staff is nice on the phone but rude in person, and I think that is not true but rather our expectations need to be set before visiting. The dogs are free to roam throughout the facility including the front yard which is securely fenced in. So when a human comes, they have to wait til the staff moves the dogs safely into another room and then the staff has to constantly have eyes and ears on the dogs while interacting with the humans. If you know anything about training dogs, you know that the leader's stance, behavior, tone of voice, etc. all reinforce the fact that they are the leader to the dogs and it is a necessary component of keeping the dogs in check. Maybe some people are a bit put off by this and interpret it as rude. Expecting and understanding this ahead of time will make one's visit feel friendlier. Also, Cindy is fiercely protective of all the dogs in her charge. That's great! It gives me such confidence and peace of mind knowing my dog is being looked after by someone who really cares about her. This protective nature combined with the constant training the staff does with the dogs all day long meant that after we spent about 25 minutes on the outside of the gate during our puppy's evaluation we were finally invited inside the gate and given a tour (they made us comfortable while were in the holding area outside the gate). Cindy told us the rules before we entered the area with the other dogs. Don't touch them, and she will correct them if they sniff our butts, crotch, or jump on us which is not allowed. We were advised to cross our arms or put our hands in our pockets. It was hard not to touch and love on all those dogs, but we respected the rules and understood there are important reasons for these rules. Also other owners may not like the idea of strangers touching their dogs for whatever reason, but I don't know if that has any impact on the rules. I think it's mostly to reinforce to the dogs the behavior that is allowed of them while they are at Planet Doggy. I'd also like to say that shake cans and water bottles are perfectly acceptable ways of training dogs and lots of trainers use these aids. These tools are harmless --not at all mean -- and most dogs need this during training. I know mine definitely does! American Eskimos would run you over if you don't have a strong training technique. Shaking a can in front of a dog to get their attention is NOT rude like it would be if done to a human. Anyhow, I'm excited my extremely active puppy is now coming home tired and content, making training at home so much easier. And I feel secure knowing she is in a very safe and canine-knowledgeable environment. read more

We have been taking our two dogs to Planet Doggy for about 3 years now.
