For over two years now, that place has been House of Dog Retreat and Spa. Here's all the amazing things about House of Dog: Dog Boarding- they are located by the airport so it's an easy drop-off and pickup. Got a crazy timed flight? They can accommodate because there is ALWAYS someone there watching and caring for the dogs. They follow directions really well, especially if your dog has a special diet or needs medicine. Doggie Daycare- the most attentive staff money can buy and it's affordable!! They make sure the dogs are paired with similar personalities and watch AND cleanup after them vigilantly. I've never walked in and seen the place a mess, in fact no matter what time of day I'm there they are constantly cleaning. Health precautions- they make sure all dogs have their necessary shots as well as alert dog owners if there's any outbreaks within the neighborhood of any health issues. My dog has never gotten sick from House of Dog most likely because of the cleaning, but also because they have a check list of symptoms posted at drop off so if your dog has any you cannot bring them in. Friendliness- everyone is kind to both the humans and the dogs, but the love for dogs shows. Dog Grooming - they follow instructions and do an excellent job keeping pups calm! Staff- well trained, attentive and creative! My dog has done art projects, photo ops and gone to foam parties at house of dog - how many boarding facilities or kennels do you know that do that??

Amanda (owner/manager?) didn't even tell me that they introduced her to one dog only at first. She made it sound like they put my baby into a room with 15 other dogs right away and she was fearful and snappy when any dog came near her. I would be the same way. I took her to another nearby day care for evaluation. And was told that while she was shy and timid at first, she did warm up to all of the people and even played with two other pit bulls the whole day. If there was a '0' star option I would do that. Please note: I asked for a callback from Amanda TWICE to clarify whether or not Mira was slowly introduced or if she was really just placed into a room with 15 other dogs -- and never received a call.

I recently adopted a 9-month old dog and wanted to jump into training right away. I retained…read moresomeone who lived very close to me and had great reviews, but after a few sessions I realized our schedules were not compatible; I was not getting consistency and reliability from her. It's important for me to make progress with my dog, so I Googled alternate options and stumbled upon Alex's page. I called him on a Friday and he picked up the phone right away. We spoke for a while about my needs and he came out the following Tuesday for what was supposed to be a 2-hour visit. I fell in love with him immediately, he is not only so personable and likable on his own, but he really takes the time to LISTEN to what you need and work on those things right away. I had mentioned my priorities to my previous trainer, but I found that she was teaching my dog commands that didn't actually accomplish what I was after. In our first meeting, Alex worked on SO MANY of my priorities. He got my dog to go into her crate on command, taught her to "stay," showed me how to "walk with" my dog better on her leash, and (using a 30' leash outdoors) started working on recall with her. We were so immersed in what was going on that Alex started to go a little bit over our time, but he didn't want to stop because we were making such great progress. I told him if he wanted to give me a third hour right then and there that I was prepared to pay for it, and he did!! I learned a lot of things from Alex myself during our first meeting, like how to employ the use of "deltas" (which my old trainer never once mentioned) and how non-verbal cues are arguably more important than verbal ones. Again, my old trainer actually discouraged me from using hand motions, but once incorporating them into my routine I noticed that my dog was much more compliant than she had been. Another positive difference between my old trainer and Alex is he really takes the time to teach you why he's doing what he's doing, and encourages you to participate. My old trainer just taught my dog a command and had me replicate/practice when she left. Alex really makes you feel like you are a part of the teaching process. After our private session Alex recommended some "Small Group Therapy" for my pup. He came at noon on a Thursday to pick up my dog and she proceeded to go on a several-hour outing with his two chihuahuas and a dog he was fostering. The entire time he was out with her he was recording and sharing videos on an iCloud album. It was INCREDIBLE to not only see everything that was happening, but to hear him narrate why he was doing the things he was doing. I could not get enough of his videos and felt like I was there during the session. On top of Alex's excellent communication, punctuality, reliability, friendliness, competency, and effectiveness, his rates are OUTRAGEOUS in the BEST way! I truly believe he is under-charging for his services. I can get three hours with Alex for less than I paid for one hour with my prior trainer, and I feel much better about the work that is done during that timeframe. I adore Alex, and most importantly, what he is doing works. He really gets into the mind of your dog, and has such a wonderful way of connecting with them and their needs. I am elated to keep our work going - my pup has lots more Small Group Therapy outings in her future and it's wonderful that I have the option to use him one-on-one to teach her even more commands in the house. One day I hope to move on from essential commands to more fun ones, like "roll over" or "go get X toy."
