10/10 ! I love this place and so does my dog Cowboy ! He always comes back so tired and is excited when we drive up the drive way for drop off . They all take such good care of him and I couldn't be happier to have found Desjardins . Professional and so friendly .

Owners are professional, caring, knowledgeable, flexible and just amazing! Our newish, unpredictable dog goes to daycare at Desjardins and has also been trained there. The results are outstanding and we are so pleased to understand our dog and be able to give him a happy life. Thank you Desjardins!!

She's ready to go

I left my GSD (her name is Faith) for 3 nights during Christmas with Desjardins Dog care for the first time and from the moment Sara picked her up from our house I knew she was in good hands. I was a little nervous at first since we had such a bad experience with Wag hotel in Santa Clara, but every time I communicated with Sara I felt more comfortable living my Faith. Great communication, I got two videos of Faith while I was on vacation, and Sara was quick to reply back to all of my questions and concerns. I highly recommend them to take care of your fur baby

I was worried about finding a daycare for my 7 month old hunt terrier pup. Then I found these guys and decided to give them a try. Off the bat they were very receptive and professional asking for vaccine papers and so on. When I arrived they have a very beautiful piece of property and are a nice young couple. They had a few dogs for the day and showed me around to put my worries at rest. When I returned to pick up my pup they ran me through the day of what took place and seemed very attentive to my pups needs; he was tired from a day of fun and play when I picked him up. I will definitely use them again in the future and they offer a lot of services. Also you get a cool sticker on your first visit.

Sahara made Butter feel comfortable during the drive.

See all

Not a cold environment like an animal shelter, this kind lady takes lucky dogs into her home and makes them part of her family. Warm and inviting she has opened her home so when your best buddy needs to have care during the day while you are at work....or stay longer while you are away on a business trip you simply could not hope to find a kinder soul to look after your furry friend.

From the owner: I have been professionally working with animals for nearly 20 years. I enjoy building a bond with…read morepets and gently working with them to build trust and respect. My specialty is adventure outings, where I take a small pack of well-behaved dogs out to a nature beach to run around and play. I pick them up from their home, supervise them having a great time, and towel dry them before bringing them back home. If your dog isn’t trained off-leash and you’d like for them to be, I can help! I use positive reinforcement and consistency to make progress. The first step is to build trust and a bond, and to show that coming out with me will bring great fun and rewards. When the time is right, I can slowly start to allow them to have more freedom, while training vital recall skills. If you feel your dog isn’t a candidate to go off-leash, I can also do leashed hikes, neighborhood walks, drop-ins and pet transportation to vet and grooming appointments. I have experience with newborn puppies all the way to geriatric and special-needs. Check out my website for more information, and feel free to text or email with questions or to set up a time to talk.

Jillian did an amazing job with our Shiloh Shepherd puppy! He did a 2 week board and train program…read moreand came back a new pup. Jillian made sure to focus on our pain points, practiced both on and off leash training, and gave us regular updates on his progress. The best part was she spent 2 hours with us when we got back to get us comfortable with the commands and what to do in certain situations. Would highly recommend her!

This place is special for my dogs (Hammie and Nilla) and it brings our family so much peace of mind…read moreto know that Megan is caring for them. We met Megan before the pandemic when searching for an off leash trainer for our older corgi. After a 2 week boot camp with Megan, Nilla was a different dog (in all the right ways). She was still loyal, loving, and attached to her family, but she was also obedient and finally a pleasure to walk and take to busy places like parks and shopping centers. When we got our second dog it wasn't even a question.. He went for training as soon as he was past puppyhood. Beyond training, Megan has cared for our dog while traveling for many weeks. Even though she lives well over an hour away from my home, I gladly make the drive - Because she put in the time to build a relationship with my dogs. They love her and I know they are safe and happy with her. They always come back a little more well behaved too :) Thanks K9 Approach - so happy we found you! Hammie and Nilla await the next adventure with you Megan! PS - all photos were sent by Megan during various trips and adventures with K9 Approach

Dave is one of a kind. He speaks "dog". I say this because he is our saving grace. We rescued a dog…read moreearlier this year who came with no training and had leash aggression. We tried obedience classes, 2 different trainers and implementing a variety of strategies I researched online... nothing worked. These habits continued and I was very overwhelmed by the future with my dog. I dreaded walks and driving with him. I was desperate to find some effective help. That's where Dave comes in (shout out to Mary at Bit O'Blarney Grooming services for referring him- best groomer around). Dave instilled confidence in myself as my dog's leader. I became/am becoming who my dog needed because of Dave. He made me confident in my delivery of every day training. Within 2 weeks, it clicked for my dog. We have learned how to communicate and successfully pass dogs on leash. We still have training to do, but the improvement I have seen has been amazing!! I have never met a trainer who cares so much about your dog and your concerns. He goes above and beyond to provide owners with the tools necessary to train at home... he even encouraged me to text him updates/questions outside of the session! He quickly responded to my questions which was so helpful when continuing to train in between our meetings. I'm so grateful to have met Dave and have him share part of his wisdom with me. If you've learned about Dave's program, you're very lucky and should reach out ASAP. You will not regret it. He is incredibly wise, caring, and does an excellent job coaching owners and dogs. Dave, thank you for all that you've done and all that you will do. Words can't express how grateful I am to have finally found a trainer with effective approaches that truly cares. You've truly impacted my dog in such a short period!

She took the time to understand my pets' unique needs, personalities, and routines. Whether it was feeding schedules, playtime, or simply offering comfort and companionship, she handled everything with remarkable attentiveness and care. One of the standout qualities of Melanie is her exceptional communication. She kept me updated with daily text messages and pictures of my cats, providing peace of mind while I was away. It was evident in every update that my cats were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. My cats adore Melanie. It is clear that she has a genuine love for animals and an intuitive ability to connect with them. I have also been impressed by her professionalism and reliability - always punctual, respectful of my home, and quick to respond to any questions or concerns. I wholeheartedly recommend Fluffed Petcare to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and capable pet sitter.

We finally have a pet sitter that allows us to enjoy our vacations without worrying about our six (now seven) beloved animals.

A huge plus are the daily updates. The photos and descriptions of interactions are so reassuring and fun to get. And the fact that our pets are content and relaxed when we return is basically our pets writing their own review. So happy we found Fluffed Pet Care!

Even if you don't have a dog you can come to watch how they train, and pick up great tips for when you do get a dog. Located in Corralitos, it is a bit of a haul to get here. Probably 30-40 from Santa Cruz and 15 or so from Aptos. The training is done on a large field that has a full obstacle course. Plenty of room for 70-100 dogs at a time. There is a lot of repetition in the training which is just what you would expect. We don't take our dog here, our parents do and they love it. We go to watch and see the dogs. It is a great experience. The trainers are competent and humorous and engaging. They care about you and your pet. One final note, we saw some puppy magic last time here. A dog who just was freakin out about laying down. Yelping and nippy and upset. Willful...not willing. The trainer stopped the class and worked gently and patiently with the dog to finally get it to lay. It was amazing to see it. I didn't think it would happen. After another short walk, the puppy was laying on its own. My wife was in tears. This is the place to get your puppy acclimated to other dogs and a bit of structure in its life.

From the first evaluation I knew I had not only found the perfect solution for my dog but a kinship with the trainers as well. The Bootcamp was the best decision I've ever made. Not only did it re-set the mind/behavior of my dog but they also taught me the appropriate skills to be a handler for my specific dog. Before I started with The K9 Clinic Scout was unable to be off leash, around other dogs and her "naughty" behaviors felt unmanageable. Happy to report none of that applies today! Group classes, private lessons; we do them all! Thanks to The K9 Clinic I have the dog I always dreamed of!! Monique Cook Santa Cruz, CA
