We…read morewere so grateful to Lucy and Adam for taking such good care of our little dog (chiweenie poodle mix). They stayed at our home -- the vet recommended that he would be most comfortable in his own home -- and they followed our instructions, walked him daily, and sent daily photos of him while we traveled. We were so relieved to know that he was being well cared for. We would most definitely recommend Lucy and Crew for your pet care needs.

I've used other local services in the past. They were unreliable as well as having little consistency in their staff and dog pack. Sometimes they would forget to take one of the dogs. During the muddy seasons, they would drop them off with very muddy paws which would end up all over the house. I never have to worry about details like that with Amy! Amy also sends helpful updates on health or behavior changes and great pictures! She drops off adorable gifts for their birthdays and holidays.

She's been walking and…read moreoccasionally boarding him for over a year, since he was a very nervous 4-month old who would chew up anything in his path. Thanks to Amy, he's now a (mostly) well-behaved, well-socialized, healthy city dog. She trains him while he's with her, has given us tips to use at home, turned us on to great pet resources, and even been helpful with our new kitten. In addition to ensuring our pup gets a great hike with his pack every day, Amy was a lifesaver when he got sick while we were traveling. She noticed he had an abscess on his side during his regular walk, helped our friends who were pet-sitting get him to the right vet, and checked in with us and them all along the way to ensure he'd be ok. A highlight of my day is seeing her Insta posts of the "pack" romping together. And she sends me personal messages and texts anytime something particularly cute happens. Bean's massive grin and flopping tongue says it all.

Ana was a rescue dog when we picked her up at 8 weeks old in January 2024. Her anxiety and…read morereactivities toward people and all four-legged animals were so extreme that we couldn't bring her to any public place. When she was finally tall enough to peek through the car window, she would bark so loud at the dogs crossing the street that people thought we were murdering her. We thought she would learn from her older packs: an 8 year old female Belgium Malinois and a 11 year old male German Shepherd Dog. We were wrong. She bullied the older dogs. Thank goodness we found Enrique Guey through Omar's Doza Dogs in Palo Alto. We enrolled Ana through Omar's Board and Train program. Ana came back a completely different dog after 5 + weeks. She was able to go on walks with Omar's packs. She was able to board with them without incidents. The biggest surprise was that she was able to go on weekly walks with Enrique's clients' dogs at Stanford Shopping Mall. I would highly recommend anyone who has similar situations to start this training course with Enrique and boarding at Omar's. This is a perfect combination where your dog gets training routines on a daily basis. Omar's team is very friendly and professional. They will screen all the dogs before adding them to the group walk. This is the best of the best team! Totally worth the price compare to the big brand K9 training company. (which I also enrolled Ana prior to Enrique) Highly recommend the training and boarding program! Worth every penny! Just imagine your ADHD dog walking with you at Stanford Shopping Center. You will be so proud of your dog and yourself!! Make it your goal to get your dog trained this year! Your quality of life will improve dramatically!!

I'm mentioning this because Omar completely goes the distance for any dog (or pet...ask him about his collection of awesome pets!). Full service business so they will pick up and drop off all your loved ones with fantastic walks along the bay. Boarding at an extra cost. IMHO way better to take your dog here than any pup hotel around the area.

Whenever Tele saw Danny and his Van, his tail wiggled like turbo and jumping up and down to greet him. This must be the best off-leash service that includes pick up, drop off and clean up in the bay area. Great things about Danny's services: - Flexibility - He will text me when he is 15 mins away, so I can get Tele ready. - Including pick up, drop off and clean up - Highly recommend for high energy pup - He CARES about your dog If you are on the waitlist, it WORTH to wait because this is the must have service for your pup .

Danny takes care of every dog in his group like his own, with individual attention for their exercise, wellbeing and pack bonding behavior. He usually picks Julius up in the morning, and after a full day at the beach drops him off late afternoon. Particular attention is also paid to limiting the group size for space and specialized monitoring. What we particularly love about Danny's service is his flexibility for scheduling, timely text communication, personable attitude, and his real interest in pet care. This is definitely a must-have service if you can get on the waitlist!

Ryland and his team are a really great service for anything related to your dogs. We have used…read moretheir team for boarding as well as training. The boarding experience was awesome as we felt like our dogs were taken care of and well cared for the entire time that we were away. We felt like they had enough stimulation as well, which is always something to worry about. We felt this way because we got constant pictures, videos, and updates on how they were doing. I have also used Ryland specifically with my anxious bulldog for training. My bulldog is deaf and also a rescue so there were many challenges when it came to training him. Ryland showed me different ways to mark his positive behavioral patterns and switch up the negative patterns in an effective way. He was super patient, gracious, and never made me feel like I was the bad owner or my dog was a bad dog. I feel super secure working with Ryland and will continue to use him for future services around my dog.
