I called a few dog walkers by getting their cards from a pet boutique store in Mill Valley. Though the first gals I signed up with were fine--they were expensive and after a couple of weeks i realized I would like to do 3 days instead of 2 per week and felt like $28 per walk was a rip off. That's when I called Niki who was referred to me by a good friend whose dog died a couple of years ago--she said "she is the BEST. She loved Scout like she was her own dog--she would send photos from their long hikes and dress them up on Halloween." She wasn't sure that she was still in the business. I called her, met her and knew that she was amazing. Her name is Niki and she has a couple of dog walkers who work with her. Pam has been walking our dog and she is fantastic. Molly LOVES Pam and so do we. She emails photos, checks them for ticks, makes sure they are clean before putting them back into our house and the best part is--that after her time with Pam, Molly is exhausted. I took Molly on a hike last weekend and didn't check her for ticks and found one on her the next day. Being a "new mom" I was worried but showed Pam who said it looked normal. She also took photos of the tick bite and emailed it to Niki who told me she thought there was nothing to worry about and that I should just look for a ring around the bite and watch her energy level. FULL SERVICE. I highly recommend these ladies. Your pooch will be forever grateful.

Nancy snaps at me "I don't just sit and stare at the dog all day!" Quite an overreaction.

Strangely, she then encourages me to call her back to schedule dog sitting. No thanks!

We've had our two dogs (both Dalmatians) in the care of the team at MT Tam Dog Company for several…read moreyears now and we're really happy with their service. Erin and Dave - the two founders of this business - are very approachable and super responsive, which is something that I really appreciate. At first, we only had one dog (Momo) and before they accepted her into the pack, Dave came by our house to "interview" her. I really enjoyed meeting him and listening to the philosophy behind the business. Later, when we got a puppy (Málaga), he came over again and checked her "compatibility" as well. What I really enjoy is getting email notifications when they come to pick up the dogs as well as when they drop them off. Sometimes they even leave little notes, such as this one: "Momo and Malaga did super today! Malaga didn't pull hardly at all, and Momo was very easy as always. We had a fun hike :)" Just recently, they also introduced dog boarding and we had a very good experience with that as well. Eddie - who also walks our dogs throughout the week - stayed at our house, while we enjoyed a few days of "kids free" time! He kept us informed with pictures every day - we loved it.

I went to see a doctor to make sure that the puncture wounds and bleeding weren't going to be a problem. At the time I was bitten the owner the company let me know he would be happy to help. A couple of months later, the bill for under $200 arrived and I asked David L to pay it as agreed; but he was singing a very different tune. The owner then decided not to pay the bill, called it a 'scratch', and insisted that it was my fault. Use this company at your own risk.

The kitties gave their immediate approval when they came out from hiding and actually greeted her with head bumps and asked for more petting. For cat owners, you know that's the best you can get. My husband and I miss our pets dearly when we go away even for a weekend, but with the daily updates with pictures it provides us with a world of relief so that we can actually relax on vacation.. and I'm a bit of a worry wart too so that says a lot!

It is immensely unfortunate that I have to write this review. This was my second time boarding my…read morecat here, and it will be my last. In early May 2026, I boarded my cat for 11 days, and what should have been a routine stay turned into an extremely distressing experience. My cat has pre-existing kidney and heart disease and was on a strict prescription of 1ml of amlodipine daily. KCS notes that their staff has experience administering medication, yet despite my providing both written instructions and the original labeled prescription bottle with the dosage and instructions clearly marked, staff administered 1.9ml daily for 9 of the 11 days of his stay - nearly double the prescribed dose. When I picked my cat up and took him home, I noticed he felt unusually light, so I weighed him and confirmed he had lost nearly 1 pound, dropping from 14.14 lbs to 13.51 lbs. He also had little to no appetite when we got home. When unpacking his belongings, I discovered that the brand new bottle of amlodipine I had just ordered was already half empty. That's when my gut told me something was wrong and I took him to the ER vet immediately. My instincts were confirmed. I reached out to question KCS who later acknowledged that the error originated from a typo on their boarding form, and that staff failed to cross-check both my written instructions and the dosage on the prescription bottle itself. This medication error resulted in emergency veterinary bills including blood pressure assessments, ultrasounds, and senior blood panels to assess the damage caused by the overdose. To their credit, KCS apologized and agreed to reimburse the veterinary costs and refund his stay, which I do appreciate. However, paying for the consequences does not address the root cause. This facility must ensure their staff is properly trained and that clear safety protocols are in place for medication administration - for the sake of every pet in their care.

I could never understand places that could watch cats. It seems to go against their demeanor…read more My friend has been bringing all her cats here from the beginning of their opening saying how unique it was- that was the last time I visited, and I am so surprised how well it has been tweaked to perfection with A/C/air etc. but especially at this place! I know another place in San Rafael that had like some giant room with all the cats, which sounded chaotic to me. People would say, "oh it works out" or "you just need to have that kind of social cat." My cat is chill but doesn't care for the interloping neighbor cats -so wasn't sure how this would work out. She gets so upset with a visitng cat coming face to face with her in our windows. This place has little suites of different sizes for each cat or groups of cats from the same family and you can get video updates on your cat, plus extras if you so choose; like If you want to FaceTime your cat daily etc. This was my first time going and I was in a pinch, really needed a place for my cat to stay so we had to try it, it was slow going at the beginning, first video was all dark cause she was in her carrier hunkered down, but the final kitty email we got on the day of pick up our cat was out of her carrier taking pets and sweet talking although also kind of growling and hissing, ultimately kind of came around which was pretty amazing. I realize cats are not wanting change, certain cats, especially probably mine, but I was impressed to see the progress from her on that last day. Definitely worth a try it if you are in a pinch with a very picky cat. My cat is up at the crack of dawn, climbing trees and loves the garden and watching the wildlife fly in and out of the garden and sleeping in different window sill etc. comes in late. I do feel like next time she could get to the top of the perch of her suite next time and realize it is another version of her climbing tree. The staff totally understands the personality of cats, what they want and don't want, they are the boss and they are just so sweet to them and understanding. It goes a long way and takes very special talent to do this job great which they do .
