I have been there for numerous (far too numerous, in my opinion) staffing and managerial changes ( at current count, 9 managers, and my current dogs have been there for 9.5 years). While I understand that people come and go, if this kind of turnover happened in a Pre-school or daycare situation, parents would be raising the roof. The loss of the current manager and her predecessor, so close together (within 2 seeks of each other) is setting alarm bells ringing. They were wonderful. The dogs were well cared for, they had ample play time, group play was longer than just a couple hours, the center was immaculate, and the staff was there long enough to learn names and faces. Now the management has changed yet again, trusted people are gone and staff is low, which means dogs will not get the exercise or care they need. Transparency is all but gone. Needless to say, this makes me very sad, and we will not be going back.

The full story of how I lost my healthy dog while she was boarding at R.C. Dog Care is on Facebook…read more Everyone has the right to make their own decision with what to do with their pets. I am just sharing my story, advocating for my Phoebe, and for Bunny who passed a month before her. I have personally had former employees reach out to me sharing that they left because they could not witness the poor treatment of the dogs any longer. Phoebe went there in 2019 and came home. This time she didn't. I hate that Bunny's owners felt this pain before me and I hope no one else ever has to lose their dog. I attached a photo that haunts me. Phoebe in the morning, hours before she was taken to the vet. She looks so scared and in the video she was having trouble breathing. They did not send us this video. I believe she should have been taken in immediately and the vet should have been told that her breathing was labored, which is what I was told (2 days after she passed) was noticed that morning by the facility. Bad things happen, but I believe this could have been avoided. I also cannot believe that after taking Phoebe to the vet and then transporting to the ER and knowing the condition she was in, THEY NEVER REACHED OUT TO MY FAMILY. THEY NEVER APOLOGIZED OR SHARED ANY CONDOLENCES. In my opinion, that is just sick. In my opinion, that shows that they did not care. I am so sorry to my sweet Phoebe that I ever brought her there, I am sorry that I was not with her, and I am so sorry that she was hurting. I won't let people forget her Phoebe should still be here. Phoebe was the sweetest dog. She was my best friend. I won't recover from this loss. RC Dog Care, I will never forgive you for this. I have attached clips of what others have said about witnessing dogs being kicked by staff, getting sick without communication, and other stories. From what I know, Phoebe had a long and painful last day. She didn't deserve that. Rest in peace sweet Phoebe and Bunny

Based upon the booking screening, it was clear that the company is professional, well-run, and focused. They provide transportation for your pet to and from their boarding stay and even provide daily pictures of your pet via text. We were very happy with the arrangements until, in the middle of our vacation, we were told that our dog had an episode of weakness and was rushed to our vet whose information we provided at booking. Andrew stayed with our pet and transported him to the overnight Emergency vet for observation. Everything turned out fine and Andrew picked up our pet to finish his stay. Andrew went out of his way and not only did everything for our pet that we could have done, but he also kept us informed and comforted. The integrity, compassion, and dedication that PetsAreInn demonstrated during our time of deep concern helped us greatly and made us happy we chose a stay with a family in their home versus in a traditional pet kennel. Andrew at PetsAreInn was our pet's guardian angel, and we will look forward to using his service without hesitation going forward.

I retained…read moresomeone who lived very close to me and had great reviews, but after a few sessions I realized our schedules were not compatible; I was not getting consistency and reliability from her. It's important for me to make progress with my dog, so I Googled alternate options and stumbled upon Alex's page. I called him on a Friday and he picked up the phone right away. We spoke for a while about my needs and he came out the following Tuesday for what was supposed to be a 2-hour visit. I fell in love with him immediately, he is not only so personable and likable on his own, but he really takes the time to LISTEN to what you need and work on those things right away. I had mentioned my priorities to my previous trainer, but I found that she was teaching my dog commands that didn't actually accomplish what I was after. In our first meeting, Alex worked on SO MANY of my priorities. He got my dog to go into her crate on command, taught her to "stay," showed me how to "walk with" my dog better on her leash, and (using a 30' leash outdoors) started working on recall with her. We were so immersed in what was going on that Alex started to go a little bit over our time, but he didn't want to stop because we were making such great progress. I told him if he wanted to give me a third hour right then and there that I was prepared to pay for it, and he did!! I learned a lot of things from Alex myself during our first meeting, like how to employ the use of "deltas" (which my old trainer never once mentioned) and how non-verbal cues are arguably more important than verbal ones. Again, my old trainer actually discouraged me from using hand motions, but once incorporating them into my routine I noticed that my dog was much more compliant than she had been. Another positive difference between my old trainer and Alex is he really takes the time to teach you why he's doing what he's doing, and encourages you to participate. My old trainer just taught my dog a command and had me replicate/practice when she left. Alex really makes you feel like you are a part of the teaching process. After our private session Alex recommended some "Small Group Therapy" for my pup. He came at noon on a Thursday to pick up my dog and she proceeded to go on a several-hour outing with his two chihuahuas and a dog he was fostering. The entire time he was out with her he was recording and sharing videos on an iCloud album. It was INCREDIBLE to not only see everything that was happening, but to hear him narrate why he was doing the things he was doing. I could not get enough of his videos and felt like I was there during the session. On top of Alex's excellent communication, punctuality, reliability, friendliness, competency, and effectiveness, his rates are OUTRAGEOUS in the BEST way! I truly believe he is under-charging for his services. I can get three hours with Alex for less than I paid for one hour with my prior trainer, and I feel much better about the work that is done during that timeframe. I adore Alex, and most importantly, what he is doing works. He really gets into the mind of your dog, and has such a wonderful way of connecting with them and their needs. I am elated to keep our work going - my pup has lots more Small Group Therapy outings in her future and it's wonderful that I have the option to use him one-on-one to teach her even more commands in the house. One day I hope to move on from essential commands to more fun ones, like "roll over" or "go get X toy."

A veterinary office had a card on file from Beverly's Pet Sit, so I decided to call and get information. Beverly was so nice in answering ALL our questions. We set up an appointment to have Laura from Beverly's Pet Sit come to our house so she could meet our cat. Of course, the cat went AWOL the whole time Laura was here! Laura came and asked us all kinds of questions about our cat's eating, sleeping, playing habits and personality traits. She spent a good deal of time with us and was so sweet. I knew our cat would be in good hands while we were away. Upon returning home, we had a detailed sheet for each day we were gone with what Laura observed that day with the cat's eating, playing, etc. Laura even took pictures of our "baby" and texted them to us while we were away! She was amazing! Since then we have asked Beverly's Pet Sit to take care of the cat a few more times. DO NOT HESITATE to call Beverly's Pet Sit any time you need someone to take care of your pet. They offer a variety of services--not just cat and dog sitting in your home. PLEASE contact them for further information. They truly are fantastic!
