I had a bad experience with my small senior (17.5yrs old) dog at Diablo Dog in Martinez this past…read moreFriday. I'm not here to bash a small business. I'm here to share what happened to me and possibly help someone else out there, not have it happen to them. After looking at their website and social media posts, I was impressed with what seemed to be a top notch establishment. I only groom my senior chihuahua mix occasionally and I wanted to make sure they would treat him with gentleness and care. It was easy to see when I got him back from his appointment, that didn't seem to happen. He went in for a trim. I chose a #7 blade, which I now know was far too short. It woukd have been appreciated if the groomer would have made a blade suggestion or mentioned that choice was very short, because I wasn't familiar with all that, but that's on me and not my complaint. My complaint is that the groomer hurt my dog. I didn't notice it at first when I picked him up because honestly it was so chaotic in that small space with two big dogs coming in for service, a bunch of big dogs in the back barking and guys yelling at the dogs to shut up, I just needed to get my very nervous and stressed little guy outta there. It wasn't until I got home that I noticed the cut around and under his neck. I was literally stunned. I've never seen anything like that before and my dog was still shaking. I scooped him up and headed to the emergency vet. He is now on antibiotics and doing better, but it was a rough weekend. Between me crying and feeling like a bad dog mom for handing him over to them and him throwing up all day Saturday, I was not in a good place. I needed to wait a few days before I could even do this review. I love small businesses and want to support them more than anything, but I have to say I would not recommend this business for grooming small or senior dogs. I have no experience with them in any other area and larger dogs might do well here, I don't know. But this is what happened to me and if it happened to me....you know the rest. It was a really hard day that day. Pictures speak louder than words. The last photo is Jazz a couple of weeks ago how he looked when I took him in, all the others are from Friday at home and in the lobby of the emergency vet after his groom. Please think twice before you go here with your small or senior dog.

My little dog is already 13 years old and although he is very healthy, I needed someone to watch him that will ensure he is getting the care he needs. He's a little hard of hearing now, can't see very well, and is very much afraid of any loud noises so needless to say he needs a very patient and genuinely caring sitter. My Brownie is very comfortable and extremely happy at Carol's Water Front Dog Sitting. This place gives him a very nice healthy routine, exercise, and plenty of good ol' fashioned lovin'!!! I don't ever worry when my Brownie is at this place as I know he will never be lonely and is always getting the attention he deserves! You won't find any better sitter around!!!

They will literally go up and beyond to take care of your furbabies (or other type of creature child of yours) the way you want them to be cared for. They take photos during the walks/playtime to share with you, have open communication through an app with all the walkers, they slowly introduce your babies to new walkers and are very cautious about pack walks or individual walks. Super accommodating and understanding. They've never had a puppy client before and they were so gracious enough to help us with our 7 week old pit girl. They'd been walking our 7 month old pit boy for a couple months now and with no hesitation, took on our girl. I can't even begin to express how grateful I am for a group of people like them. I have serious trust issues, especially with who cares for my furbabies. I'm super picky so I don't just hire a random walker from Wag! Or Rover. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure they're a good fit for other dog owners, but from what I've experienced...no thank you. Before beginning services with VPS you meet Tye (the owner) and when you do, you just know you've found someone who truly cares for animals and is careful in choosing his walkers for his clients. I'm completely content with VPS and highly recommend them for anyone living in Vallejo and wherever else they provide services.

This was in no way something I wanted to deal with without a professional with demonstrated experience, particularly to a country with stringent and unclear requirements. Prior to speaking with Vanessa, I spoke to about 5 agents in this space who candidly did not seem like they knew what they were talking about (one even suggested he only set up the vet appointment and I mail in the paperwork, which he was happy to charge me $XXX for- sir, what am I contacting you for then?). Vanessa not only responded immediately with comprehensive information about the process (more than the USDA website and even the Vietnamese customs page- I looked) and what she could do for me. She moved mountains to make this happen, met with me at the vet process, and clearly cares deeply about the animals she is helping to move. I have to again underscore how different my experience with Vanessa was from other providers where it really felt like you're paying someone to move around paperwork and they actually expressly disclaim that after all that your dog may not even meet the requirements to get on the plane. Vanessa gave me the comfort to know things will be fine because she does this all the time, as opposed to other operators who kind of seem like they're just winging it. Thanks again Vanessa, you're a life saver!
