Hills 11+ (years) Cat kibble.
David N.

Ted (my 18 year old kitty) is trying a new kibble to gain a bit of weight. I researched the nutrients he might need. Older cats struggling to keep on weight may benefit from a highly digestible food rich in antioxidants, omega-3 and -6 fatty acids and prebiotics. Found the brand and could only find it at Petco. Ordered online for store pickup. Helpful service and was on/out in about a minute. I mixed the new food with the old. Ted liked the new cuisine, so a win! I might subscribe for a regular delivery!

I wanted to leave this review in regards to the bathing your dog option at this location. The staff have always been kind and amazing for the past 5 years we've been here. The very first time we brought our pup here was the day after we adopted her, November 21st 2015. We paid $10 to bathe her, and got: - a basket with shampoo, conditioner, scrub brush, de she's brush - unlimited towels - Tub leash - blow dryer Then the price went up to $12 Now, we pay $15 to bathe her, and get: - a basket with watered down shampoo and conditioner, a scrub brush - 2 towels - No tub leash(our dog likes to jump out of the tub). - blow dryer Note that the shower head on the far right tub screeches constantly as you're using it. While we understand that price will increase for goods and services overtime, it disappoints us that they had to water down the shampoo and conditioner, and give us only two towels. We have found it disappointing to have to struggle to wash and dry our dog. We actually bring our own quality shampoo and conditioner now, so we're really paying $15 to use the tub, dryer, and two towels. It's hard to dry a 85lb gsd with two towels. We still enjoy coming to this store, but will explore other options to bathe our dog.

Since I've adopted my first dog. This place has become a weekly visit. Very clean, organized and helpful staff. They limit the customers to the store and provide all the safety precautions for Covid to make you feel safer while shopping there.

This star is for the girl from the front that was doing the check-ins for the VETCO vaccine services. I was requesting for the KITTEN SHIELD PRO but she kept off saying that it was better to get the KITTEN START plan. I requested to get two times but she kept of saying if I get that plan I'll have one vaccine left over. I don't know where she herd that from because the KITTEN SHIELD PRO will have everything my kitten will need for the months to come. She the. Said no you'll get the KITTEN START plan. I was already uncomfortable I didn't know what to do. I wanted to leave put really needed my kitten to get dewormed because he really needed it. I then saw the vet wanted to say something but i was so confused and uncomfortable for what just happened to me with the girl who was doing the bad service before. I did a lot of research before hand. Had to make sure my kitten was going to get everything he needed. But I was SCAMMED. The girl who said that I should not get the KITTEN SHIELD PRO because it would be cheaper. No way what's so ever. Now I will be paying $100 for the other services I would have gotten if I got the KITTEN SHIELD PRO. I called there costumer service line today to do a complaint for what she did to me. Just to wonder how many more people has she done this too. I'm a single mother of three who are on the Autism spectrum and ever cent that I have needs to spent wisely. I thought this would have been a wonderful experience but it stared out so wrong. Also before I was seen that girl made a huge mistake she let a dog that was know to be aggressive still receive service. I can't believe y'all have a worker who is not able to do the what she is supposed to do. Vetco do better.

Love this place. Love the staff. Teresa the trainer is amazing. My dog Max loves her. When ever we come here to get anything for any of our animals the staff is always able to help us find what we need.

the part when she was miserable
Julie C.

I haven't had the heart to bathe my daughter's Chihuahua mix at home because it's been so cold. We have aww'ed and laughed whenever we have walked by the Unleashed self-serve dog wash; I decided to make it happen this week after seeing the mostly positive Yelp reviews. The price is still $10 with no time limit. The staffer handed me a bin with shampoo, conditioner, a scrub brush, and two towels. I was bummed there is no longer ear cleaning solution or cologne offered. Yes as others have noted, the shampoo is watered down. Thankfully my dog is little and quite clean usually. The conditioned was not watered down and made her coat feel soft. I found the hose and tub easy to use and apart from some splashing it was a pain-free experience for the three of us. We attempted to use the blow dryer but it's quite large and the roar quite loud and my dog had had enough by then. I attempted to wash the tub as I saw my neighbor do after she finished bathing her dog. The staffer told me not to worry and that he would finish cleanup.

Chumba's spa treatment
Andrea D.

The 5 star rating is strictly for the $12 self service dog wash! Marvelous idea, and beautifully executed by unleashed. Paying for a grooming sesh can cost around $60 for my 85 pound rhodesian Ridgeback named Chumba. I normally would wash my Rhodie myself at home but after having a baby, we were looking for a cheaper alternative that wouldn't require so much time/effort/cleaning at home and I think we found it! The store provides all that you need to wash your dog. The shampoo, towels, water, tub, professional dryer... they even have aprons available! All you do is pay the cashier and they provide you a shower caddy with all the goods. You load your dog up in one of the three wash tubs available and get to work. Part of my elation may be due to the fact the hubs washed the pooch this time! Usually I tackle this task.... and what's even better, our experience went so smoothly, we will likely be back every two weeks, and according to the hubs, he'd be happy to wash the pup again there. We'll be back!

Party Goodie Bags!

I'll be cross posting this review on their Castro valley location too. our beagle used to get so nervous going to the groomers but he's had no issues with having his grooming appointments with Claudia. We usually call ahead of time to see if drop off is okay, usually it is fine and they can take him right away. We usually take him for a routine grooming session and also when he gets into some naughty business and wants to rub himself in the grass in who knows what but it leaves him smelling very stinky!! No worries tho cuz Claudia gets him smelling so clean and brand new. We usually book a bath, ears, teeth cleaning, nails, trim excessive paw hair. Beagles are prone to ear issues so we always include the ears!! cost is affordable but honestly, finding the perfect place is PRICELESS to us. Our dog seems comfortable being here, and maybe secretly enjoys it because he doesn't get nervous during drop offs anymore LOL We love our doggo so much and love that we found a dog groomer who is reliable, trustworthy, honest, and so friendly to us and Sage our dog.

The professionalism and structure they bring is unmatched. They manage their facility much like a children's daycare, every dog is carefully evaluated before being welcomed into the community, vaccinations must be up to date, and safety is clearly their top priority. The facility is incredibly clean, organized, and thoughtfully run. We also love all the extras they offer. From different levels of boarding (the highest tier even includes a special tuck-in and Kong treat!) to dog training, bathing, nail trimming, and their fully engaging playrooms, complete with Dog TV, play structures, bubbles, pool days, and themed activities, it's clear they go above and beyond to make every stay fun and enriching. They even include webcams for us parents to check in on them from time to time! Our doggie Herkules absolutely LOVES his Dogtime family. It is truly his home away from home, and he gets so excited every time we pull into the parking lot. As very particular dog parents, trust means everything to us -- and there is no place we trust more than Dogtime. Tony and Krista have done an incredible job since taking over the business. They've created something really special, and we are forever grateful to them for caring for our dog kids as if they were their own.

Sweet girl. One day I booked with Ashley and got to the shop and was told Ashley was sick so someone else did Munchies grooming. I took my dog home and was very disappointed. Just wasn't how my dog usually is groomed. I ended up calling and taking him back a few days later for Ashley to tidy up the cut. Fast forward to last month I made an appointment online on a Friday. When you book online it says REQUEST, WAITING for approval. I made the request on Friday for that Monday appointment. Well, I never heard back, never got a call, did not get a text , nothing. So Monday comes, I assume they couldn't honor my appointment. The shop calls me and tells me if I want to bring Munchie in, ever, I would need to pay for Mondays No show. I explained the situation how I did not get confirmation, no one called so I didn't think they could take him in. After going back and forth and this very rude female butting in to our conversation which they had me on speakerphone, I told the owner Nathan that I couldn't pay 120$ for the missed appointment plus another 140$ for a new appointment. I always tip 20$!!! Nathan tells me, well ok he will just charge me 60$ for Mondays appointment. I explain to him , what it says online when booking, it says request waiting on approval! It does not say confirmed! I have been a customer for years. I always tip. Nathan says no, Munchie cannot come back unless I pay the 60$. He said that I no showed a few times in the past. If that was the case, why was I never charged or this was never mentioned to me. And how can they just make up a No show price of $120? No one has ever said anything to me ever about a no show until this happened. I expected them to consider the thousands of dollars I have paid them over the years. And to consider that besides this incident that was not my fault, I have been a loyal customer! I take my dog to them once a month! Every month! But no, Nathan insisted either I pay for the missed appointment from that Monday or not to ever come back! I think that says a lot about them, and now that I have found MOBILE groomers who come to your home for same price and do a great job, I am happy this happened. Otherwise I would probably have stayed there giving them my money. All in all, Nathan does not value his customers, or this would have been handled differently. I am disappointed my dog means that little to them as a customer and my years of spending my money with them means nothing, but I am happy I moved on to this awesome mobile grooming! It is so nice, so convenient you know your dog is right outside in the van getting groomed. I don't have to wait around all day to see if A Cut Above Grooming is gonna have my dog 2 hours or 4 hours. The shop itself is not clean. There is usually dog poop on the ground outside, that stays there all day from when I drop my dog off, until I pick him up, the same poop is still there. Kinda lame considering there's 4 or 5 workers there sometimes.
