    Brought Jackie in today for a grooming they did such a spectacular job they did above and beyond what was needed. Thank you so much for your hard work bless you. John Caldararo 205-910-1538

    Pepper right after her summer cut.

    When we moved up to Sacramento from the Los Angeles area, it took a bit to find the right groomer for our babies and All Stage is definitely it. We gladly drive the 20 minutes from East Sac to see Ashlee and she treats Harley and Pepper like they are her own. I highly recommend the mud bath if your pups have developed Sacramento allergies like mine. Thank you All Stage and Ashlee!!

    We took our mini Aussie to puppy pre k and basic classes with Val Masters and we were very happy with all our class time. Our Tiger Lily made new friends and learned many new things. Highly recommend Val and her classes.

    Poor baby lol this was before

    I am so relieved that we are able to take our dog in to get groomed again. Kendra did an amazing job!!! Our pup had problems before with grooming because of kennel aggression and being around multiple dogs. What I loved the most about this place was the fact that they handle one dog at a time so no kennels involved!

    My 4.5 lb little Deena is six years old and a little picky about her grooming services but she's thrilled with her new gal at all stages. They came highly recommended by our vet and she has been happily barking to get her hair done and buffed and puffed all again soon! Thank you!

    This place is amazing. They have wonderful staff members and awsome dog groomers. I take my dog here for her grooming and her training. They are very knowledgeable and very helpful and has helped me down the right path with my service animal training.

    Great haircut for our Phoebe. She is an Airedale with lots of energy but Deana always makes her look fantastic. Highly recommend!

    I love this place. I drive 25 minutes to get there, but it's worth it. Deena is fantastic. She grooms my 140lb rescue, Brewtus. He was a doodle when we adopted him until about 2 years after we got him and now he's a Komondor. I could find no one who would take him as a client. His hair is special and he is large. Happened upon All Stage Canine Development and Deena took him immediately after chatting for a few minutes. That was 4 years or so now. Deena is the best without question and has a way with dogs. Brewtus loves Deena and all the staff there.

    Ashley is the best! I really like All Stage Canine. It's clean and everyone that works there is supper nice.

    Ashley is the best!!! I really like All Stage Canine. It's clean and everyone that works there is supper nice.

    Finding Heather was the best thing that happened to me. she does a wonderful job with my baby. Thank you Heather!!! I have referred her to some very picky friends and they also love her.

    See all

She is fantastic at explaining dog psychology so I can understand what my dog is thinking. 10/10 recommend as her skill level won't be found in large group classes nor will the group training be tailored to best fit your dog.

She was able to figure out a way to get through to them and help me learn how to manage two different personalities, ages (senior & an 8yr old) with one having limited abilities and the other running/jumping/hyper. Issue 1) walking them.. sadie the eight-year-old was very energetic and wanted to run or walk very fast. She tended to pull a lot. Sansa The senior, 12-year-old girl walked slowly and very close to me to where I would keep tripping over her so I needed her to learn space. Kristen admittedly said this was difficult to have two very differing dogs and one person walking both of them especially since I have physical limitations myself with struggling from fibromyalgia. She set up an appointment for us to go to A walking trail and worked with us on that, and additionally another issue Sadie was having. Issue 2) when I would take Sansa and Sadie for walks on the trails that were busy Sadie would often bark and spin in circles when a bike would ride past us. I wanted help with this behavior. Kristen was able to find a way to help subdue her reaction. Issue 3) One of the people we live with is very obnoxious and the dogs bark at him every time he enters the room. They don't do this with any other person. I asked her to come to my home to evaluate the situation. She nailed it right on the head what the problem was. She spoke with this person to give him insight into how his behavior was affecting the dogs. Her ability to get through to not only the dogs, but people as well is amazing! He actually heard her! He is a very difficult person to talk to so I was impressed! She also helped trained us to not reward them when they barked at him (which I didn't realize I was doing by letting them stay on the couch & petting them.) I thought I was calming them, but she pointed out it's rewarding what they're doing. So now I get them off the couch when they bark & treat them when they don't. This helped quite a bit. Not only is she knowledgeable but she is very upbeat and positive. She is very sweet and takes her time with you and the dogs. I highly recommend her and we would hire her again! Thanks Kristen you're the best!!

    We hired Alycia to help us with our new lab puppy. We brought her into our home when our puppy was…read more10 weeks old and have committed the time to meet with Alycia to train him (and us!) Alycia is great. She's so patient with us, and is so good with the dogs. Everything she has taught us has worked. Our puppy is only 5 months old but he's learned so much thanks to her techniques. It takes commitment from the owners to make it work, and Alycia is worth every penny and more. I can't recommend her enough! We've done both the private and group classes, and got a lot out of both! Hire her you won't regret it!

    Hiring Alycia is hands down the best decision we could have ever made for our 6 month old Cocker…read moreSpaniel Tiffany. With only 2 sessions, Alycia has made so many drastic changes and corrections that we are absolutely convinced that she is today's Dog Whisperer! She is the most loving, kind, yet firm, professional dog trainer we could ever imagine and hope for. Our precious puppy has anxiety/separation anxiety and she tended to bark at people and other dogs (not out of aggression but) out of nervousness and excitement. She loves attention/affection but her first reaction was to bark, run around and be hyper. In minutes Alycia calmed Tiffany down and she really responded well to Alycia's commands. She taught us about boundaries and gave our puppy a boundary at the front door. Previously, Tiffany would want to run to the door and possibly run outside. After 2 tries, she mastered how to stay back even with he door wide open and with no leash on! Such an important safety lesson. Next session we went to our local pet store and also walked around outside of the strip mall. There was lots of activity, people, noises, cars, dogs, etc. I was so nervous, but to our astonishment, Tiffany did NOT bark once! Alycia taught her how to heel, make turns, and how to stay on the curb until we let her know it was ok to cross the street, We also had trouble with Tiffany pulling her leash in front of us while walking. Alycia literally taught her in a couple of minutes how to walk calmly beside us. The last lesson of the day was teaching Tiffany how to remain calm in the car. Previously, Tiffany would whimper, try and jump or walk around nervously even while being safe in her car restraint belt. I don't know how Alycia did it, but for the first time in 6 months, we had a quiet calm puppy, laying down calmly in the back seat by herself the whole ride home! One word....AMAZING! Keep in mind that all of these corrections were literally done in minutes! Our puppy has shown so much improvement and retains the information. She's becoming more confident, showing less signs of her normal anxiety and she's loving all the new things she's learning. We can't say enough about Aylcia and her style of training, loving nature and expertise! Thank you Alycia of Thinking Dogs! If anyone is looking for a dog trainer, please contact Alycia today. I promise it will be the most positive experience for you and your fur babies!

    I will never take my little girl here again…read more.. I made her appointment for 9:20 and I walk in and I was immediately concerned because it did not look like any other PetSmart groomers I've been to in the past. This place was cramped, the check in was in the same room as grooming and it was filthy. The staff were not friendly and just immediately put on their leash and took her back without letting her adjust or get to know who was even taking her. I have never been to a groomer that doesn't greet the dog and establish trust first. Then, she says it'll be 3-4 hours because they're busy so she will be in a kennel which just didn't sit well with me. At that point I already said we were never going back. At 1:30 I get a call (so it's been over 4 hours at this point). The groomer calls and says that our pup is half done. She didn't like the blow dryer (which I warned them about. She just becomes deadweight and tries to hide because she's scared). But because she didn't like the blow dryer, she said they put her back in the kennel and let her air dry in there. My poor baby!!!! Then she said she'll go on her lunch break and hopefully she'll be dryer then she can finish! She's finally done at 2:30. I pick her up and oh my god it is the most botched hair cut I have ever seen. Random long hairs all over, her tail wasn't even touched. And I'm sure she didn't get water the whole time there either because she drank almost 2L of water when she got home. Our pup shows her anxiety by becoming deadweight and doesn't like to be touched by people she hasn't established trust with. I am stunned that this is an acceptable standard for PetSmart. I will never bring my baby back here.

    This PetSmart location has steadily declined in customer service over the years but this was the…read morefinal straw for me. Had a coupon for a discount on grooming and thought it would be a good way to check out the service so I could have a convenient backup established for when my usual groomer is booked up. From the moment I walked in with my golden retriever it was clear that although I had an appointment and there were only two other dogs there, the grumpy employees here didn't want to groom my dog. I was given attitude, and they made comments before I was even checked in with several reasons why the service might have to be cancelled. Seriously? There was really a bad vibe - like they had just argued amongst themselves before I walked in, and I should have just listened to my instinct and walked out. I unfortunately decided to go through with the service since I was already late for another appointment. An hour and 15 minutes later I was called to tell me that because my dog was drooling they wouldn't groom him and to come and get him NOW. I then found out he had been locked in a cage the moment I left without any part of the grooming process started at all. That is unacceptable stress to put on a pet. After being treated like this today, PetSmart just permanently lost a customer in me. It was a mistake coming here and one I will never repeat. I will drive out of my way to avoid this store and recommend you do the same if you care about your pets.
