I would highly recommend ORA Dog Training, in particular, the Board and Train Program. In my…read moreopinion, this option is the most convenient and effective form of training. It provides a solid foundation to build on, avoiding the frustration that can come with starting from scratch on one's own. The 5 star reviews that influenced my decision to choose ORA Dog Training are well deserved. My dog's behavior has changed DRAMATICALLY. She is well on her way to becoming the kind of dog that I can enjoy walking with in any situation. I say "well on her way" because although she is completely obedient to Bijan and his trainers, it is now my job to continue that training and build on what they have accomplished. I have to show her that I am also going to enforce the same structure and obedience as well. As I consistently use the tools Bijan has given me, she is consistently obedient. More importantly, she is more calm, more at ease at home and on walks. Bijan didn't just train my dog, he trained me. He educated me so that I now understand what my dog really needs and how to provide the discipline that creates a happy, well behaved dog. He empowered me to become the leader and trainer to my dog.

The house has a large backyard where you can see there's space for the dogs to run and play. Anthony takes daily pictures of the dogs and sends them over so we can see the group of dogs and what they are up to. He has a magic power (for real) because he manages to keep all these dogs sitting while taking pics lol. Our dog feels like he's at home there since we take his bed, leash, and food. Also, Anthony is very easy to reach. We would answer your call/texts right away or within mins! we heard from him through our building. It turned out that a lot of ppl use their services here so that gave us more peace of mind. We love them and are very grateful for their services a because they love our dog as much as we do.

Attention dog parents, please read this carefully!‼ The dogs may appear "happy," but in reality…read morethey are thirsty. My dog came back noticeably thinner. When we picked her up, I gave her water and she immediately started drinking it desperately. She didn't even greet us. She was more focused on drinking water than on seeing us, which says a lot about how thirsty she was. That behavior is not normal for her. Runa is not a dog that pants excessively unless she has been running a lot or is extremely tired. She almost never pants, not even when she's happy. That's why it really stood out to me that in every photo I received during her stay, she was constantly panting. At first glance, the dogs may appear "happy," but in reality they seem thirsty. She was there for only 5 days and still came back thinner and extremely thirsty. I can't imagine how uncomfortable that must have been for her , or how other dogs may be feeling if they are not being given proper access to water. I'm writing this with sadness, but also with the hope that this feedback leads to better care and attention to the well-being of the animals left at this place.

I expect a pet sitter to be 100% trustworthy and honest. Their job is to give you peace of mind…read morethat your furry child and your personal property are in good hands. I have not been impressed with Furry Spot and I agree with the reviewer about prepaying - you might not get the best care every time but you'll pay for it anyway. (FYI, Dania is the owner and she hires contractors for walks/feedings.) I went out of town for a week in June and Furry Spot was MIA for some of the days (they promise a photo of your cat every day, but I didn't always get one and couldn't reach anyone). I had a bad feeling before I left because the girl was supposed to come by for instructions but flaked. When I came home I found FLIES in my cat's food bowl and the rest of a can of food on the counter wrapped in a paper towel (Read: "Refrigerate after opening"). With that many flies, I seriously doubt she had come by for at least 2 days. The food bowl was FILTHY -- obviously not washed between feedings. Took a couple of soaks and scrubs to get it clean. Even more troubling (though not surprising, based on what I just told you) was that my cat vomited 3-4 times the day I got home and he was really agitated. I had to leave town again in a few days - but had prepaid and it was too late to find someone else - so I was freaking out. I was also REALLY upset that Dania had not tried to call me despite my text messages asking her WTF went wrong (not in those words, of course). I finally got her on the phone and she was too stressed out about her employee and other customers to pay much attention to my concerns. No refund. She believed that the employee had come every scheduled day...because "she told me she did." On a positive note, this time Dania did the visits instead of giving them to a contractor. My cat seemed healthy when I returned and no flies! Another thing related to trustworthiness: Earlier in the year we agreed to trade services - pet sitting for tutoring. I discounted my fee, overlooked no-shows, accommodated requests to "pay next time." She was really happy with my services, but when it came to paying, told me for months that business was "really slow." Never paid me, never refunded what I overpaid her and didn't use. Never returned my keys (had to change the locks). Hope this is useful to some of you.

Last month my boyfriend and I had to head out of town for a wedding. More than any other detail,…read moreour biggest dilemma was trying to find someone to watch our kitten (well, she's technically a cat but she's my little fury baby). We adopted our cat (Raja) from the pound when she was only 7 weeks old; she is very used to my boyfriend and I but hasn't been exposed to many other people. We both work from home so naturally, Raja has become somewhat needy and requires a good amount of attention. I spent about a month looking for places near me; animal hospitals, cat boarding places, friends but none of the places gave me any comfort; after all I LOVE my Raja About one week before our trip we made the decision to leave her home by herself. We were going to buy her some extra food and litter boxes and pray for the best. At first this idea seemed to work but I changed my mind and I looked hard to find someone to watch her; that's when I started looking for someone to come to our apartment to check on her instead of leaving her somewhere. I came across Furry Spot on Yelp and saw some decent reviews, however even though most of the reviews were amazing there were some that, well, weren't. We took our chances and called Dania, the owner at Furry Spot and made an appointment to meet with her. The day of our meeting, we chatted with Dania for about 45 minutes; we spoke about how Furry Spot works, about Raja and about the cost. I felt so comfortable after meeting Dania I knew I was going to hire her to watch Raja while we were away. Fast forward - we go on our trip after dropping off our apartment keys to Dania the night before and even though I trusted she was in good hands, I still wanted to check up on my kitty. I called Dania the next morning knowing that she was going to be at our apartment bright and early to make sure that Raja made it through the night OK without my boyfriend and myself. Dania assured me everything was wonderful and that Raja surprisingly took a liking to Dania (she doesn't like many people). Dania even sent me a photo of Raja playing which made me very happy. We were only gone for 5 days and Dania and I text each other every day. When we got home from our trip, Raja seemed like her normal self. Very happy to see us but not distraught at all! She was clean, smelled good, her litter box was clean, she had plenty of fresh food and water, she looked like she ate and there were no injuries to her (Thank goodness). We don't go out of town often but when we do I'm definitely using Furry Spot again! In fact, I'd recommend them to anyone in the area. I'm really glad that I gave Furry Spot a chance because there were some bad reviews; one had nothing to do with the service but was angry about Dania wanting payment upfront so I didn't care too much about that. One was really negative and I'm shocked that anyone could have such a bad experience like that considering mine was so positive! I don't normally write reviews (especially ones this long) but I'm such an animal lover that I felt it was necessary to help out fellow pet owners who plan to travel or need any pet service for that matter.
