Aj M.

I've been going to SOCO pet lounge for over a year now & have never once had a bad experience! They take the best care of Luna & I know because she is always in the best of "tail wagging" spirits when I pick her up! She has left other groomers like petsmart shaking in fear! The front desk girls are sweet as can be - Nicki the groomer does the best cut ever! Luna gets compliments everywhere we go on the style & evenness of the cut. The appointments are always so well scheduled and she's usually only away from me for 1.5 hours instead of other groomers when the appointment lasts 4 hours! Thank you to the entire SOCO pet lounge team for always taking such good care of my princess!

Luna

Carolina and Kyla were absolutely amazing with my baby girls. Can't say enough positives about this place. The girls texted me updates because this was really their 1st time boarding and it was for 5 days so I was certainly nervous . I would say our dogs are large, sometimes skiddish, and overall fairly difficult to deal with and they did an excellent job. Luna didn't eat before when I've left her and I know they took extra time to ensure she ate. The toy you see in the photo was given to her from the team there and it certainly helps her feel more secure. Love this place and if you're looking to board, look no further!

Can't tell you how impressed I was with soCo pet lounge. My dog is notoriously anxious and stubborn for grooming, but the groomer at soCo pet lounge took such great care of him and quelled his anxiety. He's never looked cuter, and it was way less expensive than other groomers I've taken him too. Would absolutely recommend!!

Took my springer spaniel here for the first time today and had the best experience. Jess groomed my dog and did an amazing job! I highly recommend this place.

Clarissa has been grooming my dog Simon since he was a puppy. She has always done a phenomenal job every haircut she has provided him. Clarissa is always so kind and her pride in her work continues to show. I am so grateful to have come across a groomer who not only listens to my suggestions, but also delivers how I prefer Simon hair cut's. She always goes the extra mile and has continue providing the PERFECT hair cut time and time again. I appreciate her honesty and how she provides me with helpful information of how often I should brush my four legged son Simon in order to avoid possible tangled mats in his fur. You can tell she truly enjoys what she does for a living and I am extremely happy to have Clarissa as my full time groomer for my buddy Simon. Thank you for always providing a great service and a great haircut Clarissa and always being so professional. You rock!

Todd, Had you listened to the calls you would also hear on the first call me asking if his cut was on file and being told yes. Yes. I said "it's like a teddy bear face with his eyebrows and beard more defined" which is not what was done. I ended the call with "thanks for shaving my dog" after asking the woman what to do because I explained to her that the day I took him in was the only day I was able to have anyone take him in for me-- and that I would be leaving town that weekend. She said she didn't know what to say and out of frustration that was my response. Rather than her asking for future scheduling that's all that was said. Yes, nothing was said upon pick up because the person picking him up did not know the cut asked for. However, they knew it did not look good on look like previous cuts and sent me photos immediately. I appreciate you looking into the whole situation, but please acknowledge EVERY detail on the calls if you're going to reference them back.

Ellie getting home from her first haircut!

Brought my little Ellie for her first haircut, and I absolutely love it! She smells so good! Looks so adorable and fluffy! She's a Shihtzu, so she has long hair, but I wanted to start her off as a small trim so she can start getting use to haircuts, and well the outcome was wonderful! Thank you so much for taking care of my Ellie! I will be back hopefully next month for her next trim.

This is a lions cut on my mini Aussie looking fresh to death.

See all

Ask the Community - SOCO Pet Lounge

Is Todd still the owner here?

Yes

IS day care is included in the price of boarding? I do see on the site that theres 20-30 min of play a day but not sure if that's changed.

Yes, daycare is included in the price of boarding. They actually get much longer than 20-30 mins of playtime. They go out several times a day for at least that long. It depends on how much you want them to play, but they can accommodate most… Read more

This review is only based off of my experience/ first impressions and this business may work amazingly for your dog! Once I found Walk ATX it took me a while to get in contact with someone, called a couple times, left a voicemail, sent a couple emails -to no avail! Sent a dm on insta as a last resort and finally got in contact with someone! Yay! Erika helped me set up my account and went over daycare. Dropped my pup off for his first day! First impressions matter to me and as someone who is nervous I would have loved to see them greet my dog. Instead the woman at the front ( not sure her name - mullet - immediately went into a quick " take off the leash. What's his name? You'll get an update at 11" And then I watched her usher him straight to the backyard. No saying hi to the dog, no convo with me, no easing his nerves, no questions about him, no petting him, no introductions, nothing. I didn't love that, especially since it was our first time and it made me much more nervous to drop him off there. Around 11:00 I started to look for updates, none. Tried to call 3 times, no answer. Again this is his first day so not hearing anything on how he was doing and getting no photos - nerves then rose to an all time high. People are allowed to have bad days so will update this after a few more times. Just know the first day is not as informative or warm may not be as warm as you'd expect.

It is difficult to find a doggy boarding/day care that provides such well rounded, holistic approach to pet care. We have used Walk ATX for boarding, day camp with pick up and drop off included, and for in home check ins with walks. As well as their add-ons like baths and fun photoshoots. Mo is a party animal - we are constantly training, working with him and we fill all of his needs. Yet he is an energetic, happy 2.5yo rescue from Austin Pets Alive. He is a foster win actually. He's always soooo excited when he realizes he's about to get dropped off at Walk ATX and he's welcomed with big smiles and a huge "Hi Mo!!!!!" by the passionate and hard working staff. Walk ATX does pack walks, outdoor playtime in their yard with staff assigned to different groups of dogs. I love that there's constant supervision and a structured day. Including rest/down time, which is just as important as to not overstimulate the doggos. It seems as if Walk ATX has only gotten better over the years. They've incorporated training, special add-ons, and cool adventures. Last time Mo stayed with them while we were in Costa Rica, Britton and the team were super attentive (Mo was on limited activity for the first few days per our vet), and even called to give an update, in addition to their daily updates via email and on their app "Time to Pet". I know Mo is cared for and looked after by a group of caring animal lovers.

With not much notice, Nicole helped us out and had us covered for when we needed pet sitting. She asked all of the right questions, sent us photos every day of our babies (who we missed the entire time) and let us know (because we asked) when they were being cared for. I cannot tell you how much comfort it brought us to know that people like Nicole and her team were taking care of things while we took a whirlwind trip to get away on a Holiday week. I always say-you can't put a price tag on peace of mind but it's even better when that price tag is affordable and not breaking the bank for quality care! The price is extremely reasonable for the quality of care you get here. I'll never use anyone else and I can't recommend them enough! Seriously. Look no further!

Since he was little Mufasa has always had the same dog nanny to walk and play with him every weekday afternoon. My husband and I work long hours out of the house and believe allowing an animal to stay alone is unhealthy emotionally and physically for them. When we relocated from North Austin to South Austin, which is like moving to another city in most Austinities minds, we left behind Mufasa's dog nanny. THREE pet sitters later, all of who are on YELP, we found Capcity Pet Sitting. Capcity Pet Sitting has been a blessing to my peace of mind. I can tell when a person doesn't have the time to really put into caring for a dog and when a company is just in it for the transactional benefit. Will and Claire ENJOY taking care of our Mufasa and it shows in his attitude at the end of the day. Will and Claire always keep me updated on how the day went and any new behaviors I need to be aware of or keep an eye on. Mufasa is always played out by the time we get home and I know he's enjoyed his visit with Will and Claire. I hope we have the privilege of working with Capcity Pet Sitting for many years to come. I can't express enough how much we highly recommend them. Stephanie
