waited an over an hour and then they had this lady cut in front of me. Idk who these vets are but they look lost.

Follow protocol and if somebody's in line, please let them wait in line in the correct order when somebody is scheduled for their set appointment. I don't know if these vets know what they're doing or not, but they definitely look lost

I've been on the hunt for a doggie stroller and I'm so happy I walked into this Unleashed. The staff was so helpful, showed me where the stroller options were, did a price match for me and even helped assemble it. Luna and I am so thankful, it's pawfect

Bryan helped me tonight. I really appreciate his courteousness, patience, and helpfulness. He's very knowledgeable and made my experience wonderful I will definitely come here again and recommend it for anybody that is looking for the frozen justfoodfordogs. They always have a greatest assortment I get the turkey and macaroni for my dog. She loves it.

Loved this fancy PetCo! I'll say the in-store customer service is pretty bad. Nobody has ever asked if I need help, and the young employees have ignored my presence to continue their conversation with each other, and continued even when helping me check out. But the selection of higher-quality cat food is amazing and keeps me coming back. They sell all the high-end brands found at PetCo or PetSmart in addition to even higher-end brands like Weruva, Orijen. Love that they carry so many flavors and varieties for each brand too. I've even found cheaper dupes for my cats' favorite Solid Gold wet food cans that around almost half the price, and the ingredients are pretty much the same! Worth a visit if you have some extra $$ to spend on your pet. I've noticed a drastic improvement in my kitties fur softness since moving them to the Orijen regional red dry food.

Just Food for Dogs totally empty

Is this store closing? They've been out of the kitty litter I use for months. I've been having to drive to the Culver City store which is stocked. Just went to buy my Just Food for Dogs. There was only two bags. The freezers were empty. What's happening to this store? Leads me to believe they are closing soon and not telling anyone. The service at this store has always been subpar so it doesn't totally surprise me.

Siberian husky fits perfect in this tub

This place is ok for a quick wash for my dog. For $15 they provide you with the tub, shampoo, conditioner, hair dryer, scrubber, 2 towels. The shampoo and conditioner is extremely watered down so I bring my own. Price seems to go up, when I first started going here is was $10. If it wasn't for the tub which is more comfortable for my dog I wouldn't continue going here because that's all that's useful in the equipment provided.

Denise is a powerful, intuitive, loving, efficient, and effective trainer…read more We set up a training appointment with Denise on the advice of our vet last year. We were hoping for a more manageable set of pups, what we got was a miracle! Denise deeply and compassionately understands and connects with dogs-- and therefore tailors her training to accommodate differences in personalities. We have two little dogs who had a multitude of different personality quirks and training needs, which she navigated with expert love and knowledge! She is a lovely blend of professional and personal warmth. It is like having a canine expert for a best friend-- even from session #1! In just one session, our dogs became so much happier, healthier, better adjusted, and all of our lives are significantly improved. Each training tip, product, and recommendation has proven indispensable in elevating the quality of our puppies' lives. After our first session, we were much better dog parents and our dogs seemed touched by an angel. They were so much calmer and their listening improved significantly. They knew a couple commands and looked forward to training sessions! We were both so pleased with the amount we accomplished in this initial session-- much more than our original expectations. The handouts she provides, along with personalized homework assignments, are concise and easy to follow to ensure maximum success as well. Denise followed up with us to check on our progress after the sessions and was thorough, generous, and thoughtful with her time in giving her kind answers to our many questions. In addition to being a trainer extraordinaire, it is clear that Denise is a truly loving, gentle, awesome person. We are so glad to know her and her services have improved our lives and our relationship with our little rascals so much! We highly recommend her to the yelp community! We were left with a beautiful blend of instant gratification and long-term results! She is worth every penny and more. You'll be so glad she was your trainer.

Her techniques work and my dog loves her! I use Hillary to walk my dog 5 times a week while I am at work. She is very trustworthy and I did not hesitate for a second giving her my key. Her prices are beyond reasonable and definitely better than anything else you will find in the Marina but she does not sacrifice quality at all. I have also used Hillary to overnight pet and house sit my dog while I went out of town on two occasions. Her prices were amazing, I came home to a happy dog and a house that was cleaner than I left it. Hillary is a calm and positive person and is excellent with every dog I have seen her with. Highly recommend her for whatever your pet needs are.

5 stars is not high enough praise for Hillary. She has been magic with my dog, both as a dog walker…read moreand a trainer. My little guy is a sweetie until someone other than I tries to take him for a walk. Not only did he walk easily with Hillary, but she also trained another dog walker I had who was having trouble walking him. He is a changed boy since working with her. And I am so relieved to know that he will always be taken care of. She has a key to my house and I trust her implicitly. She really does love pets. And my pet really LOVES Hillary. I highly recommend her.

The stress became so intense that she even developed stress colitis after a routine grooming visit she had handled many times before. Nathalie at Les Pawtounes Dog Training was incredibly thoughtful and supportive through all of it. She didn't treat Kiki like a "problem dog" or use a one-size-fits-all approach. She really understood that Kiki was grieving, looked at what was driving the behavior, and gave me a clear, well-rounded plan to help her feel safe, calm, and more resilient. Everything was explained in a way that made sense, and I left feeling like I had real tools to help my dog. I'm so grateful for her compassion, knowledge, and care. If your dog is struggling with anxiety, behavior changes, or stress after a major life change, I highly recommend Nathalie.

She took the time to share incredibly helpful tips on getting started, including the importance of ensuring my puppy gets 16-18 hours of sleep each day for healthy development and growth.

I'm truly grateful for the time and care Nathalie put into our session. I feel much more confident and prepared, and I believe this has given both me and my puppy a great start.

Our Australian Shepherd, Briggs, has been…read moretraining with her for the past month, spending five days a week with her and coming home to us on the weekends, and the difference we've seen in him has been incredible. His behavior, manners, and overall demeanor at home have improved so much, and we feel like we have learned a ton along the way too. Beyond being an amazing trainer, what has meant the most to us is how much Kelli genuinely cares about Briggs. She treats him like he's her own, and any time he has had even the smallest health issue, she is always the first to check in, follow up, and make sure he's doing okay. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing he is with someone we completely trust and who truly loves and cares for him. Kelli has been so lovely to work with, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. We would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who is not only an incredible dog trainer, but someone who genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. It also helps that Briggs absolutely loves her!

We enrolled Poppy, our 4 month old puppy at the time, in their 10-day reverse board-and-train program. I wasn't expecting her to come out perfectly trained in 10 days, but I did expect the level of intensive training they advertised on their site. The trainer we got was sweet and had a calm energy, which I liked since Poppy was skittish around new people. But the actual training didn't come close to matching what was promised. We have security cameras at home, so I could see exactly what was happening while we were gone. Most days were only 5-10 minutes of actual training. The rest of the time the trainer was watching TV or on her phone. If we'd wanted someone to watch TV with our puppy, we could've asked a neighbor for free. By the end of it, Poppy knew "sit" and "down" and not much else. The separation anxiety and potty training work we'd specifically talked about before signing up hadn't really progressed. I want to be clear, my problem wasn't that she wasn't fully trained in 10 days. It's that we paid for a specific service and didn't get it. I emailed the owner, Jeff, sent him the video clips, and asked for a partial refund. He wouldn't address any of it directly, just offered services that were already included in our package and turned down the refund. Then he was rude to my husband on the phone, which threw me because my husband is about as easygoing as they come and almost never gets worked up over anything. I also found it concerning that the exit document I was given included a clause saying clients agreed not to post negative reviews. I never signed it, but seeing that made me question how much honest customer feedback actually makes it online. Super shady. We ended up going with a different trainer afterward, and Poppy turned out exactly how we'd expected her to after actual, consistent training. Maybe we just got unlucky with the trainer. I can only go off our own experience, but between the training we actually received and how they handled it afterward, I wouldn't recommend them.

Can't say enough good things about this place. We were looking for a place for the best and cutest…read moredog in the world, our Kano. We also needed something close to home but more importantly a place that was safe for our dog that he would enjoy. Let me tell you this is the place. When we first visited Waterland other owners were dropping off their dogs and we could see the dogs wagging there tails from excitement and no lagging to go in the back with staff. This was a good sign! We boarded our Kano for 18 days and upon our return pleasantly surprised to see his mood was still joyful. What Waterland did right: they sent pictures and videos daily. We could call and ask questions about him which we did. They allowed us to bring all his food, snacks, bed, favorite toys and blanket. They provided him with activities such as swimming with Nephi and agility training. Even though Kano isn't the most experienced swimmer, it's clear from the videos we receive, Nephi and the other staff encourage him! It appears Kano even had some training. He no longer jumps on people and is much more relaxed. We waited everyday for Kano's report card, videos and pictures and were very excited every time they arrived. The team at Waterland is amazing. You have to love dogs to work there! Kano is an only dog and he loves going to playcare and the staff. He also loves the activities and the team continuously cheers him on. Please see videos and pictures of our Kano having the time of his life at Waterland.

Unfortunately, this place was a HUGE disappointment and had a huge negative impact on our pup. Long story short -- Everything here is a sales grab. The few girls care for the animals but the "managers" and men there are just there for the commission of your packages. I had a whole conversation about their unethical sales pitching with the employee while picking up my dog lol. It's "how they keep the place open" - the employee's words, not mine. Astounding. Said employee also asked what I did for a living because I questioned their sales pitch tactics -- I'm in sales. Also, If you need their VIP services for your unspayed or neutered pup, please spend your money elsewhere!! Before committing to a membership, we did a trial day and spent hundreds on drop in days, grooming, and overnight boarding to see if it was a good fit for our high energy pup. Our dog is not neutered and we don't plan on getting him neutered so we chose their VIP rooms. His breed is also extremely high energy and they promised they could accommodate. I also inquired about training multiple times and they kept saying the trainer would contact me. Everything went great after those few visits, they seemed caring and said he was a great fit for a membership so we end up signing up. Then everything went downhill. Upon the first day of the membership, our dog all of a sudden had behavior issues and needed to be picked up. In the middle of my work day I call the shift manager, and he states that if we want our dog to stay, he needs training ... (from their same trainer that I've inquired 3x about before committing to a membership, still haven't heard back). I asked why this wasn't communicated ever before committing to a membership and they didn't have an answer. I informed them that I would've paid for training before committing to a membership if they would've let me know that there were any issues. Our dog went a couple of more times until they could finally get me in touch with the trainer, 6 visits later. Actually I had lost complete trust at this facility. To add insult to injury, I was able to speak to one of their actual workers that is with the dogs and she let me know that our dog is only let out for about 10 minutes at a time, maybe 3 to 4 times a day during a 12 hour stay. This is their VIP option. So not only is he left in a room for about 12 hours a day, with dogs barking all around him, he's not being stimulated nor played with just being let out to go to the bathroom. Contradicting everything they say that they offer. Their "trainer" is also a joke. He is supposed to be from the Marines and well-versed in the breed of dog that we have. Upon washing him for 5 minutes, as I was told, he said that our dog needed to be neutered before he could be trained because of his energy. Our dog is a Malinois and is not supposed to be neutered before 2 years of age. We've since went elsewhere to get our dog trained from someone who is actually educated on his breed and he's worked on all of his anxiety and reactivity issues that our pup got because of this place.
