Dog Tranquility and it's owner Colleen Dermott have truly been life savers for our family. Over…read moremany years and multiple dog training experiences, I can honestly say that our experience with Dog Tranquility and Colleen is the best we have ever had. She is very passionate about what she does and cares very much about customers and their pets alike. We have adopted dogs for years but two of our current pups were getting along so badly that they were having fights that drew blood. Since we adopt for life, giving one or both up was not an option. Colleen worked closely with our dogs and educated us as owners to address the issues. It was not easy but within only a couple of sessions Colleen had our dogs starting to peacefully interact and over time they have now become good friends. On the rare occasion when we have an issue, we now know how best to address both in the heat of the moment and afterwards to bring the two back together. I am hoping to continue working with Colleen to focus on additional basic obedience and training and to continue to address some lingering behavioral issues. I don't write a ton of reviews, preferring to only write when I have extraordinary experiences and this is one such case. I highly recommend Dog Tranquility; Colleen's experience and training far exceeds usual obedience & training options and the outcomes have been far more meaningful & longer lasting than other options we have tried.

I agreed to a consult with Colleen for $150. I thought it was steep but dog trainers are costly…read more Our session was in a park and lasted a half hour. During that time I told her about my dog and what my concerns were. She observed my dog but did not offer any tips or ideas. The last 15 minutes was devoted to telling me about what she offers and how much it costs. So, I feel like I paid a lot for a sales pitch. BTW, her hourly rate is $300 per hour for training.

I contacted Wags 4 Walks on Wednesday about cat sitting for an upcoming vacation 1 month from now…read more Explained my situation to Brian, my need for cat sitting (20 min visit every 2-3 days), and provided my address. He said I was just a bit out of their service area, but he could make it work based on our flexibility with days. We scheduled the initial meetup on Saturday, and he says he's right outside. I text him because no one is on the driveway, and even send him the address again. He texts back that he thought no one was home (2 cars in the driveway and I confirmed we were home just 20 min before). And he cancels saying we are 30 min away from his farthest client. Randomly, he texts me 3 images of dogs and cats for no reason. With today's technology, he could have Googled my address and known the distance from me to his next client without having to drive it. I can understand if we were located way outside of his service area, but either the service map is out of date, or Brian just doesn't care to be professional about declining service. He should have notified us with a phone call instead of a random text message 10 minutes after our appointment saying, "It didn't look like anyone was home.". It seems professionalism and courtesy are seriously lacking for this company. I would not recommend Wags 4 Walks to anyone since Brian was not honest with us in any way.

I saw he was recommended on my neighborhood's mailing list so I gave them a call. When I contacted working walks, the owner Dave came by with the walker who would be caring for my dog. They both sat with me and my dog to understand what challenges I wanted to work on and shared their impressions. Then we went on a walk together and they asked me to point out behaviors I'd like to see improve. Dave and his well qualified walker listened and started working on calm greeting of other dogs and sitting before crossing streets. I saw results almost immediately on my walks, and that's continued to today (over a year later!) I can't recommend Dave and his walkers enough, he bends over backwards to make sure your dogs needs and your scheduling needs are met. Oh yeah, he also has an incredible boarding service.
