Wonderful trainer, Jake and Owner, Elizabeth. We got to…read moremeet both today when we took our puppy for her first dog-reactive training session at the dog park today. This was our first encounter with a dog trainer as we do basic training for all our Foster dogs but this issue was not in our "book of tricks" and had no experience with this before. Jake came to our house a few days before our official training session to do a free evaluation and get to know our dog. LOVE THIS!!! Elizabeth brought her dog as the subject and Jake showed us how to handle the situation with her dog and other dogs. He is experienced, knows his stuff and is a good listener. By the end of the session, our dog was completely at ease with the subject dog and non reactive. She was still somewhat reactive with other dogs walking by but we are on our way to being able to bring her out in public with the tools we learned. We've scheduled another session in a week to see how we do with her training and how it is going. Also signed her up for puppy daycare for socialization.

I heard about Boozy Bark from someone else and I figured I'd give it a try. I wasn't sure how she would do since she is older and pretty small (chi), but seeing the pics Boozy Bark posted on fb/insta gave me such peace of mind that she was in great hands. She will be going regularly (2 days/wk) as they offer a reasonably-priced 10-day package. The people who work here take the health of the dogs very seriously which I appreciate. Thank you so much for taking care of my Pixie girl so that she isn't home alone.

He cut them perfectly & then he double checked to made sure they were each trimmed well.

The San Marcos Petopia is highly recommended by me.

The second time I came and they said they weren't doing walk ins because they were extremely busy but I understood since it was the weekend before thanksgiving but the front-desk man was not very friendly. I finally brought him in the next morning and they convinced me not only to do a trim but to get him bathed. I came back 3 hours later to see if he was ready because I hadn't received a call. They said "it'll be 10-15 minutes" and I looked and my boy was still kenneled up and appeared to be unattended to. I came back in 30 minutes and he was definitely bathed but they only trimmed his feet. And my boy has long hair and he can't see a few days after his cut. They rushed the process to get him done and over with. I would have much preferred to wait to get it done correctly. $40 dollars is an awful lot for a bath!! I'm off to find a new groomer

All supporting photos of our experience have been deleted by yelp but original review is still posted below. If I could give zero stars I would!!!!! Made reservations on Wednesday to have my dogs boarded over the weekend. I was sent a confirmation stating that their shot records would be due before or AT ARRIVAL of their stay. Today, I check my emails to see a cancellation email sent from Buddy's. I will be leaving for my trip in a few hours and now am left with no sitter for my pets. The cancellation email also stated that these vaccination records would be due before or AT APPOINTMENT arrival. Spoke to receptionist who seemed like she could care less, then was handed over to the "manager" who was very argumentative & stated that they have 40+ reservations today & that the shot records needed to be turned in 24 hrs in advance. Where was this on the email?? Sounds more like the so called "manager" over booked the place and is now just cancelling reservations? I read off both of my emails to her that clearly stated I could bring them for proof upon arrival and she still argued saying that another one was sent yesterday but i have absolutely no record of that. I also requested to speak to the owner or a number that I could call and she declined giving me any further help even though this was THEIR mistake. Horrible horrible horrible.

She's very loving with me and my daughter, but less so with other people. Morgan's first boarding stay she willingly went in, but during her visit nipped someone. The staff continued to work with her, to socialize with her, now they are able to bathe her and clip her nails. Yesterday, we had a birthday party at the house... Approx 15 adults and maybe 10 kids or so. Morgan did amazing! I was worried and kept her on a leash/harness for a bit, but she did just fine without it. I let her meet people as they game in, she followed Quinn's lead and mostly sat near me in-between people; but she let people come in and out without growling or barking, and accepted treats with paw shakes. I have always been worried about having ppl over -- The first couple times it went poorly enough that I have since avoided it -- so this was nothing short of amazing. I am thankful Audra's team did not give up on us and have helped us get to this point.

I have been a consumer of PetSmart since inception. That's a very strong statement. I must be a…read morefan, right? And I am! However, I am first and foremost my pets' advocate and caretaker, and PetSmart has been my go to company for 40+ years. So my current rating is based strictly on my experience last two times that I have had my elder Great Pyrenees washed and brushed out, at two different locations. I am less unhappy with the latter than the former. Here is what I am most frustrated with. Both times I spent a lot of effort to communicate, and confirm they heard, that his mane, skirts and layers where not to be touched. The first time, his mane was 3" shorter and his skirts were "feathered"... this time, overall a much better experience yet, once again, I was not listened to. I very specifically said, no cutting or trimming anywhere except to trim his fuzzy paws. I even called out potential mats between his legs... I said if they find a mat that they can't work out with conditioner, to leave it! So-- Why did you shave his belly?

Which we took him specifically to get a haircut. Not only that but we paid $92 for a bath and nails cut amongst a few small other things but no haircut. I would have thought for $92 he would have had his haircut. But they said that would have been another $15. The environment when walking in was really nice though. They had a little store and treats and food. Our dogs name was actually on a sign outside when we pulled up welcoming here which was a sweet surprise. He did leave with a nice size sample of food they let us try. Not sure if we will be back bc of the pricing but our dog did smell great from the wash and they were friendly.
