    Meet Yoshi, our sweet and spirited 15-month-old pitbull. We rescued her when she was just four months old. From day one, she was full of life--curious, playful, and overflowing with love. She thrived during training (especially thanks to the treats!) and absolutely adored her daily trips to the dog park. Running, playing fetch, and chasing her pup friends brought her endless joy. But when Yoshi was about nine months old, that joy came to an abrupt stop. One day at the park, we heard her let out a sudden yelp mid-run. She immediately lifted her back leg and couldn't put any weight on it. We rushed her to the vet and were devastated to learn she had a luxating patella--a condition where the kneecap slips out of place. The vet instructed us to restrict all activity and hope it would improve on its own. For two months, we did everything right--short walks, no running, and lots of rest--but there was no change. The next step was surgery. We were heartbroken. The idea of putting our baby girl through a surgical procedure at such a young age was overwhelming. Desperate for an alternative, a friend recommended we visit Ben's Barketplace, a pet nutrition store known for helping dogs with health issues through proper diet and supplementation We visited the very same day. At Ben's Barketplace, we met Nan and Ben, who were not only incredibly kind but also exceptionally knowledgeable. We shared Yoshi's story, and they spent time walking us through different nutritional approaches to managing inflammation and supporting joint health. They explained our options clearly--we could continue with dry food, try raw food, or even combine both. After learning about the benefits of raw feeding, my husband and I decided to go all in. We switched Yoshi to a fully raw diet, choosing Bold by Nature as her new food. We also began giving her Cethyl-M, a powerful joint support supplement they recommended, and swapped her treats for Green Juju, which are packed with nutrients and anti-inflammatory ingredients. The change was nothing short of miraculous. Within just a few weeks, Yoshi began walking more confidently. Her kneecap stopped dislocating. Soon, she was running again--pain-free, full of life, and back to being the playful pup we knew and loved. We are endlessly grateful to Nan, Ben, and everyone at Ben's Barketplace. They took the time to listen, educate, and empower us to make the best decision for Yoshi. Their knowledge of every product and how it supports wellness is unmatched, and their compassion made all the difference. If your pet is facing health challenges--or if you just want to give them the very best--we cannot recommend Ben's Barketplace enough. Their guidance changed Yoshi's life. And ours.

    My pup and I love Ben's Barketplace! Here she is patiently waiting for 9 am.

    We have left our dog Star with Samantha several times, for up to a couple weeks at a time. He now…read more_loves_ her. We sometimes suspect that he likes being at her place more than he likes being at home. Samantha has always been great about providing us with regular updates and photos. She has a backyard where he can run around and relieve himself. But most important, she's so caring -- she would sometimes even ask us how he's doing after he came home. So we always have complete faith that she will make sure he's well taken care of.

    YOUR DOG WILL BE WELL TAKEN CARE OF…read more When I first took stitch to Samantha , of course I was hesitant, but when I came to pick him up, he did not want to leave. For me, that was a great sign that he created a bond with another person. I usually drop my dog off four times a week and so far the same thing he does not want to leave. Samantha is such a kind soul. She loves the animals and she loves what she does and you can definitely tell she has experience with all breeds, and most importantly, she knows dogs, body language, which is hard to find with somebody, my dog is a blue heeler pitbull mix and people don't know how to handle his behavior and know how to recognize when he's having a temper tantrum. Samantha is definitely experienced and seasoned. She knows how to take care of large dog breeds pit bulls pretty much all dog breeds. For my people out there who are looking for someone who can manage pitbull behavior, and actually find someone to take care of their pitbull She is the person. I don't want to give my business to anyone else, because not only does my dog have a great relationship with her in a bond as well. Have a great relationship with her. She is so kind like I said before and very understanding. There's been times where I forgot my dogs essentials and she already had it , she's such a wonderful person and she's doing so many good things such as training and keeping up with the regiment I have my dog on she takes the dogs to the dog park and overall she make sure that they are very happy.

We recently moved to a new home and the team was quick to match us to the right walker route so we didn't have an interruption in service. Joe and his team (especially Troy and Anthony) have been great with my now-9.5 year old dog. I especially appreciate how Troy tailors the days walk to match her energy level and the heat outdoors -- he knows when to pivot to playing with toys indoors or just a round of fetch. Really appreciate their continued care and great work!

    Love these guys. Joe and his team have been walking my two pups since they were only a few months…read moreold, and they've always been just great. My schedule is SUPER variable - sometimes I don't need them for a few weeks, and then I'll suddenly need them twice a day! They're incredibly flexible, reliable, and accommodating. When our pups were really small and couldn't be alone for more than a few hours, they came over at all sorts of inconvenient times to make it possible for us to live our lives (e.g., walks at 8pm on a Saturday night when we had theater tickets in SF). We're so grateful. They're also total pros at handling dogs - we were dog-sitting for a friend so I had three dogs for a while, and they walked all three together without any trouble. I'm in awe :-) Also, for health reasons, we aren't spaying our pups until they're about a year old, so when they go into heat, all my normal activities with them (dog park and beach trips) are suddenly out - and I need a lot of help getting them enough exercise. In those times, I've been particularly grateful to Joe and his team. Thanks guys!!
