I had done what I thought was quite a bit of research and tried to train with her a bit daily but I just couldn't figure out exactly how to work with her, her smarts and energy are off the charts.i just couldn't get her to focus on what I wanted. Maddie did a month long board and train with Sage and Sage can back so much happier with her energy more focused and workable. while Sage was with Maddie I received email updates including pictures(that was so important for me). when Maddie brought Sage home she went through how to keep working with Sage the way she had. I feel Sage is so much better and I look forward to going to some of the group classes to see what else we can accomplish.

*This review is in regards to their boarding services only*…read more I have been using Big Basin for over 8 years now. They were recommended to me, because they are capable of accommodating aggressive and/or working dogs. Their kennel set up allows for them to care for dogs without having to enter the kennel. Gary and Peggy are the owners of this company. They have always been a pleasure to deal with for booking boarding dates. I have never had any issues with how they have cared for my dog over the years. My dog always looks healthy, cared for and excited to come home. Their rates are pretty reasonable and are priced by dog sizes. Their prices can be found on their website. They are open most days of the week. They used to have hours posted, but have since changed their hours to appointment only. Although I have never utilized their training services, I have heard good things about their training methods. This is a great option if you're looking for boarding and/or training.

I started as a customer/student to learn how to groom my Scottie. Later Adrian and Nicole took over as the handlers of my beautiful Scottie girl - Lola! As groomers/handlers these two are exemplary. Their communication skills are good, their commitment to the high standards set by the AKC is solid and they are more than willing to mentor a newbie (like me!). As a business, Tango Kennels reflects the dedication to the proper care of animals in general, dogs in particular of the owners. Beyond that? They are available to help in rescue situations, have stepped in to help during a major illness I experienced this past year and do their best to provide consistent and comfortable care for your fur babies! You cannot go wrong with Tango Kennels.

I cannot say enough good things about Chelle and the work she's done with her. From day one, it was clear how deeply knowledgeable she is about dog behavior and how genuinely invested she is in each dog's success. Chelle doesn't just "train" -- she observes, adapts, explains the why, and meets both the dog and owner where they are. Her dedication is unmatched. She is consistently punctual, incredibly prepared, and always willing to go above and beyond -- whether that means staying a little longer to make sure things click, following up between sessions, or adjusting the plan as Mochi progressed. Thanks to Chelle, Mochi is transforming into a calm, well-mannered, confident dog. The difference is night and day, and the results speak for themselves. Beyond the skills Mochi learned, I also gained confidence as an owner because Chelle empowers you with knowledge, not just commands. If you're looking for someone who truly cares, puts in the work, and delivers real, lasting results -- Chelle is it. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone who wants the absolute best for their dog.

Daphne had a restful fun time on both occasions. Daphne is getting older and it's wonderful to have a place for my dog, Daphne, to stay when I'm on holiday. I know she's in great hands. Furthermore, Niki is an expert groomer! I adopted an insanely cool Chinchilla Persian cat, Puffcat, from Niki's Play n' Stay just after winter break. Chinchilla Persians are lovely! The breed requires very careful grooming every 4-8 weeks--including bathing, shaving, and drying with a special high velocity cat hairdryer. Therefore, I just had my Chinchilla Persian, Puffcat, over at Niki's for grooming and he came back looking picture perfect. After his grooming, he's sooooo puffy, smells amazing, and he has been expertly shaved & trimmed. Thank you Niki! Highly recommend!!

Her mobile setup is spotless, convenient, and completely stress-free for my kitties. Niki is amazing every single time. She's always on time, communicates clearly before and after each visit, and her pricing is incredibly reasonable for the excellent high quality and convenience she provides. One of my cats is... let's just say strong-willed. Her fur had gotten badly matted, and she wouldn't let anyone near her with a brush. I honestly didn't think she'd cooperate, but Niki worked her magic and somehow turned my spicy little fluff into her normal, gorgeous self. She's patient, gentle, and knows exactly how to handle cats with all different personalities. My girls always come back looking runway ready -- like they're about to strut down the catwalk. If you have cats or dogs and want someone who's talented, trustworthy, and genuinely cares, Niki is the one. A true trustworthy gem!
