The best caretaker for my fur baby!…read more I can't say enough great things about Chantel and City Girls Dog Care! From the moment I reached out, I felt like my husky lab Kuma would be in the best hands. Chantel is incredibly responsive, kind, and passionate about dogs. Chantel and her team have looked after Kuma a few times now, and I'll definitely keep coming back. During my recent trip, I received daily updates and adorable photos that reassured me he was happy and well-cared for. City Girls Dog Care followed my care instructions perfectly. They gave him plenty of love and even went the extra mile by taking him on hikes. What really stood out was how excited Kuma gets whenever he sees Chantel. It's clear she has a true knack for connecting with dogs and training them.

BUT don't get it twisted, they offer top notch service and truly care about your fur babies! I inquired online about boarding services after finding BDC on Yelp and reading recent reviews. Lila contacted me shortly after my inquiry and we discussed the details surrounding our needs. She was very quick to speak with Renato, her husband and dog trainer/whisperer, and they graciously accommodated us. Not only did they care greatly for our pups during their stay, they sent us daily photos and videos of them! The other trainers were so good with our babies, we are so appreciative of them. I highly recommend using their services when in HMB. Renato is a dog trainer, and it seemed like he helped one of our energetic guys in the short time he cared for him. Thank you again Lila, Renato and team!

Very good dog trainers! Lila and Renato seem to genuinely care about our boxer, Emmy!read more

It's hard to know where to even start here. There are some people in life who clearly have a…read morecalling. Dani's is without a doubt working with dogs. When I first moved to her area, a neighbor recommended Dani to me, and I was a little nervous - pickups at my house without me there? No in-person visits to the farm? I was just supposed to trust this stranger with everything? Heck I have probably spent maybe 15 minutes max seeing Dani in person over the years (bc her team usually does our pickup) and yet I now trust her like family bc I have seen her put my dog - and all his unique quirks and personality - first, time and time again. - Pre-COVID it was amazing to find someone who could do pickups and dropoffs - I, like most people, can't guarantee a drop off on my way to work or even a specific pickup before 5pm, which made arrangements with typical daycares impossible. Knowing that my dog would be home and comfortable was amazing. - My dog - didn't like strangers before, was scared of the first team member to come pick him up - no worries, Dani moved the schedule around to make sure someone he was comfortable with was picking him up, even coming personally for some periods of time! Her team of dog lovers are also awesome - you can tell they're happy to see your dog too! - Neighbor moved, we were no longer super convenient for her route, she could have reasonably dropped us or raised our rates, but she stuck with us, going out of her way every day and never increasing our rates by a dime. In fact, she rescheduled our pickups around days that another dog whom Dani recognized as my dog's "best friend" could attend. - COVID hit, and for several reasons, we had to greatly reduce how often we could send my pup. Dani was there for us, accommodating around our life changes, payment timelines, scheduling needs, all completely outside her policies. It was obvious she made it personal at this point. It was all just her supporting my dog as his personal guardian angel. As we start returning to offices, I'm struggling to imagine going back to commuting without Dani. We are about to move, and Dani's service area was actually one of the top 5 considerations in our housing search. When we were unable to make that happen this time, Dani graciously offered to help us find a new option. She's in our corner and all about our dog's safety through and through. I can't recommend her enough. If your dog can join Heeling Star, you have to do it!

Hopefully you're well. we miss hearing from you!! Kindest,…read moreCheryl & Karsten + Karma, OF COURSE!

Suzan is the BEST dog walker i have ever met. We met Suzan in 2003 when we has just adopted our…read morefirst puppy. She took my dog Otto as a client and walked him fr 2003-2006 until we had to move across the bridge to buy a home. Since then i looked for various dog walkers, and we either didn't click or they just didn't do a good job walking the dogs. Suzan set the bar pretty high. she made sure Otto was well socialized and super tired lol... he was so happy to see her every single time and had formed a pack of friends, life can't get better for a doggie. Otto passed away not too long ago and we are starting to look around for puppies. as we reach this stage of our lives again, I have been thinking of Suzan a ton and really wishing i could find someone who loves, plays, and exercises doggies rain or shine :o). I decided to write a review and hope it helps someone in need for an amazing dog walking...
