Laney trained me and my dog in private sessions. Her approach to training fostered a relationship between my dog and me that will allow me to continue to train my dog (and me!) on my own. I felt some guilt for being a bad owner, having had my dog for years and having never sought the help of a trainer. As the sessions went on, I got over my guilt and realized that my dog has more energy and is more engaged now that he has been trained-- rather than having a dog that dreads being asked to "do things" like sit and stay--I find that he loves the challenge and engagement--and is hungry for more! And so I would say it is never too late! And if you want to build a relationship with your pet, there is no better person to help you do that than Laney! read more

So I was just wondering around Little Italy and found this pretty cool pet store. They have collars, leashes and very soft beds so soft I wouldn't mind having one for myself. This is a new pet store but I'm sure they'll be here for a long time. There is definitely a boutique feel here but I love that feeling of an upscale pet store. It's not a huge space and parking is a little tight but there's parking on the street. The employee that helped me I forgot his name but he was very helpful and very knowledgeable about the products he sold. They have a little bit of everything from dog food, cat food, bedding and even spa treatments. I'm not in the area a lot but when I am and want to do some dog shopping I will definitely come here. read more

They are super friendly here and will order you anything that they don't have in the store. I have been here on my pups birthday and they give him free treats and a pig ear. He loves coming here and when we walk past the store he tries to pull me inside. I just went here today and called about ten minutes before they closed and they offered to stay open for me, but I was just down the street. I arrived two minutes before they closed and they were just as sweet as always and let us come in and grab our treats and toys. I am going to make this my go to store for all my pet food, treat and toy needs because they are so awesome and accommodating. I highly recommend them because they have phenomenal customer service, they have a great selection in store, they gave me a discount today, they will order anything for you, and they are just all around wonderful and caring owners! Their prices are competitive, they are not marked up and the location is so convenient for anyone living or working in Little Italy. read more

I love this place. The owner Chris and his partner are super sweet. They carry the best dog food and treats. I've also found the most adorable collar and leash and toys. It's so nice to have an amazing pet store in my neighborhood. Now to make things even better they hired Oscar who has just become my favorite groomer. Can't say enough about how great this place is. Check it out for yourself read more

We signed up for private training lessons and Elaine was more than knowledgeable and patient with us. We have a newborn and an anxiety filled jack Russell who lunges at baby when she cries. Even though we were no longer able to continue training with Elaine due to our own schedules, Elaine was very understanding. Would 100% recommend training services from this company. read more

5 Star Dog Trainers!! Laney & Chris are incredibly knowledgable, easy to work with, centrally located at Liberty Station and just awesome people. Laney has worked with my Shetland Sheepdog for 2years now. She began with Jewel at 6 months & with her help Jewel received 3 AKC Obiediance Awards, & her Therapy Dog Certification under 1 year! On her 1yr birthday she passed her tests and was licensed and AKC registered as a Service Dog!!! Her 2nd year she has completed Agility fundamentals and works with Chris & Laney every week to have fun in her group lessons and weekly individual sessions with Laney, me & Jewel. Yes, Jewel is a star, but Laney helped me create a loving balanced canine companion. We love those two, Chris & Laney! Jewel & I want all dog owners to have a chance to train with Wildside. It's not just dog training. It's a lifestyle, a behavioral approach and its 100% positive for you and your dog. Try taking some individual classes to have one on one talks that expand your knowledge. Enjoy some group sessions for fun and socialization. It is definitely worth the investment. I budget for it monthly and could not have had a better investment. You won't believe how a real, professional Animal trainer will change you and your dogs bond. Thank you for letting me share our success story. read more

Such a great neighborhood pet supply store. We went in around the time they first opened to purchase food for Our dogs. The owner is there always working and we had a very long informative conversation about different foods and benefits of each. He offered to order the food we were currently feeding our dogs, but we decided to go with a better more nutritious brand they offered. We started buying the food there and once they got a groomer decided to use their grooming services too. Very happy with the job done on both of our pets. Would recommend for their expertise and their grooming isn't so busy that they do a rushed bad job. read more

Wildside Unlimited - Fresh pup - Pet Training Near Me

Somewhat off India Street, hidden behind a parking lot for a nearby Italian restaurant you'll find Wildside Unlimited. It's nice to have another pet store in Little Italy, since the neighborhood is so dog friendly. Wildside is now offering grooming and doggy massage! What a concept, I think I'm going to have to bring my dog here just to get a massage even though it seems so ridiculous. The store itself is cute and filled with anything a Little Italy pup could need - think collars and leashes with plenty of bling! Plus, there are tons of toys and dog beds. Also, there is a range of dog food brands available, but if you don't find your favorite brand they are happy to order it for you. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, making this place worth a visit, even if you don't end up purchasing anything. read more

This place is amazing. The owners are so caring and helpful! They not only remember my boyfriend and I by name, but even remember the names of our pets and always make sure to ask about them! They really start to feel more and more like friends every time me and my boyfriend go in. We stopped going to our previous pet store due to bad customer service, but wildside unlimited didn't carry the same food we feed our dogs. They helped us try multiple foods with similar ingredients, gave us free samples, and most importantly actually listened and cared. Unfortunately our dogs have pretty sensitive stomachs so they weren't doing well with the foods we tried, BUT these people are so amazing they just asked for us to give them the name of the food, and now they specially order it for us! I've also had both my dogs groomed here, and it's not over priced, and they do an amazing job! When I came back to get my dogs, instead of having them locked away in the grooming room, the groomer was sitting on the ground loving on them in the middle of the store. We are definitely forever customers! read more

This is a gem of a little pet boutique in Little Italy. I happened upon it one weekend and checked it out. I walked out with some great (and fashionable) accessories for my fur babies. The magic meatballs are their absolute favorite and everyone loves my dogs Star Trek leash and collar. If you are a dog mom or dad in the neighborhood check out Wildside Unlimited. read more

AMAZING!!!! We love Laney and Wildside Unlimited. Our 3 older cats have never been happier when we go out of town. Laney takes such good care of them, we feel so comfortable leaving them in her care. All of our cats have certain needs in their old age, and Wildside takes extra special care of them. Our house and the cats all have such a positive energy about them whenever we return from being gone. Wildside Unlimited is the best! read more

We had an emergency of sorts and they were extremely kind and caring. I would return here for future grooming or accessory needs. Such a beautiful and clean shop. This place is seriously immaculate! I could not say enough positive things about the people who were running the store when I stopped in today. Thank you for the rubber bands for my girl! read more

Very friendly and knowledgable staff. They take excellent care of our senior pug and provide the personalized attention that he needs during his grooming. We definitely recommend this establishment to other pet owners in Little Italy (and surrounding San Diego neighborhoods). read more

Knowledgeable people and an award winning grooming salon. I just found out that the groomer Rachel from their competitor will be working there so I will be ecstatic to bring them my business. I hope that they can step up their supplies and food selection. read more

First dog groomer that I've had absolutely zero complaints about in my entirety of owning dogs, not kidding. Julia is hands down the best ever and takes care of my husky Sierra wonderfully every time. If you're looking for the best dog grooming spot in SD...look no further! read more

Disappointing, I was looking forward to having a convenient local pet shop to go too. Well, I went by to see if they had a harness for my Maltipoo and they had the brand i was looking for but not in the right size. The man working told me they would get more in the following week, so naturally i went back and once again they didnt have the right size. Supply and demand is part of having a store. Never will I shop here again. read more

Great spot for doggie lovers! Nice staff. Great for training your dog, grooming or grabbing treats/toys for your pup!

Our dog Leo loves to get groomed here. The staff is always friendly and helpful and Vince especially takes the absolute best care of our dog. He is always a happy pup when he leaves and we are frequently getting compliments on how cute our dog is. Highly recommend this place. Thanks Wildside for always coming through for us. read more

Marley got a great wash and trim here yesterday in little Italy. Mercedes (the groomer) was fantastic with her and the owner (chris) was great. This is where we will be getting her grooming food and treats from now on. I was extremely impressed with the service. read more

Love, love, love Wildside! Julia is a badass groomer! Chris and Laney, the owners, are the most amazing, caring people you'll meet. And they know what they are talking about, so take their advice. read more

What an amazing place this is. I just talked with the owners for about 30 minutes about different types of organic foods and treats, and was blown away by their amount of knowledge. They have solid, quality foods here, fun toys/outfits/leashes/etc., and overall are truly honest, real, and wonderful people. Every single person in the store had an positive vibe and was happy to help. I bought a load of stuff, and expect some happy dogs when I get home! read more

So excited we found this gem! After my groomer went on tour with her band we have been struggling to find a place that does good work and we found it! Great service and great prices! read more

THE local place to go for all your pet care and accessory needs! Their convenient location is very new, up to date, and inviting. The team at Wildside know their stuff! I was amazed at the depth of knowledge about pet care and nutrition as well as their willingness to chat with me. Thanks Chris and Laney! read more

Finding a good dog groomers is hard especially hearing all the horror stories you hear from the main stream places! My dog is my child and I am very protective over him and I love taking him here! Here they only take one dog at a time so you know your dog is getting their undivided attention! They do a fabulous job cutting and cleaning and my dog always comes out so fluffy!!! My dog is always happy and smiling when I pick him up and he never wants to leave!! read more

I love this place! I took my first puppy here for his puppy training. We took the puppy training class and it is very informative. My Frankie graduated with flying colors! He obtained the AKC STAR Puppy program and a bonus AKC Canine Good Citizen program. Laney, the business owner and trainer, is very patient with us. As a first time puppy owner, I have a ton of concerns, but Laney helped us along the way. Thanks to Laney, my Frankie is doing great. And Frankie always love to visit this place. They have great treats, dog supplies, and self grooming station. Their pet groomer is great! I highly recommend this place. read more

My husband and I found Wildside by accident. But wandered in anyways, and love it there. The owners work the store, which we appreciate as business owners ourselves. There are great items for your pet that aren't a huge rip off. Some of the clothing there is even small enough for my 1 pound puppy Leo, we will be back! (in a few minutes actually...headed there to buy some whole food for my puppy!) read more

I LOVE this shop! It's a cute and cozy pet store that also does grooming. Chris is one of the owners and so friendly. Everything is fairly priced, and good selection of items to pick for your pet. I also recently started getting my dog groomed by Oscar! He's amazing! Literally my fav pet groomer that I've met so far! He's so great and caring with my dog and I feel comfortable leaving her in his hands! He does a fab job with grooming! Highly recommend this place! read more

Wildside is the best! Julia, the groomer is in a class by herself. She is professional and caring!!'

Our 12 year old boxer is an old, sweet girl and this is the only place we trust to groom her! Chris and Elaine didn't open this pet store as a hobby - this is their passion and it shows through and through. They offer an assortment of dog food with QUALITY ingredients and it's the only place we purchase (Kika's) food because you can tell they actually care about what we give her. They are helpful with any questions you might have and knowledgeable about everything under their roof. Elaine is actually a professional animal trainer and offers training classes on Sundays. I was having trouble with our old girl on walks and she even offered to walk with me to see if she could offer any advice...and that advice has been incredibly helpful. Where else can you go where the owners care enough to GO ON A WALK WITH YOU? I highly recommend them for pet food, grooming, training classes, toys, and more! read more

Great customer service. They work from their heart with a genuine love of animals. Oscar is a pro at grooming. A spa experience for your pet. They also offer training classes for dogs. We signed up and within 3 classes our naughty dog was making huge improvement. read more

A great local business owned. The staffs are super helpful. They do excellent grooming for my dog every time.

Came here by chance just to buy dog food! Left with a grooming appt for my Pup! They did an excellent job! Super friendly!! Love the decor! Oscar did a great job with Stella - he really listened to me & connected with my very shy & scared lil girl! Will definitely be back! read more

Beware - Took my little dog in for a $59 grooming today, told the groomer at the outset that she has a small scar on her back, showed him the scar, and asked him to be careful. Sadly when I picked up my dog, her scar was bleeding. An employee told me, 'we put spray on it for a hot spot.' I told him she doesn't have a hot spot. Not only did they cut and scrape her scar to the point that it bled, but her eyes were infected with something - they were totally bloodshot, covered with a filmy substance and leaking. This was an awful experience and I will never take my dog there again. read more

Fantastic little boutique in Little Italy that carries things you're not going to find at the big chain retailers; specialty foods, great selection of beds, gorgeous accessories. Added a very nice washing/grooming station in 2016. The building is set back off the street a bit, and they use the space in front of the shop for fun activities like yoga with your dog, adoption events, pet photography, and training. Staff is not only friendly, they clearly know their product lines and have put a lot of thought into what they offer. read more
