We never received an email with an explanation. Two days later I decided to email and let her know we had waited for her but decided to go with another Company. She replied: So sorry about that my client made me wait at home to pick the dog up! She was very late. I got so frustrated and it slipped my mind. Danya If we went with this Company, how would I know if she's remembering to visit my pet for the scheduled visits? We have gone with a different company and I highly recommend NOT using "Beach Puppy Love". Our pets are our family and it is very unsettling to know she was this 'frustrated' and we slipped her mind. If that was the real reason she forgot our appointment, why didn't she email later that night or the next day to tell us what happened?

Do not send your dog here!…read more The new owner is completely incompetent, unprofessional, immature, inexperienced and treats his staff horribly. He has no experience with dogs and does nothing to help care for them. He will leave 50+ dogs alone in the pen and is not even watching them properly when he is in the pen. His lack of knowledge and experience is very apparent and he does not listen to his employees, who on the other hand most have years of experience. He is getting rid of really good staff without cause and having to care for the dogs on his own. Which can't lead to anything good considering he has no idea how to read dog body language, cues or break up a dog fight if one occurs. He is constantly on his phone and taking personal calls to the point where he doesn't even notice a fight about to break out right in front of him. Your dog will not be safely or properly cared for with this man. He is not to be trusted and I would strongly advise you to take your dog elsewhere.

I decided to use their cat sitting services based on the good reviews posted by other Yelpers. Yvette is such a sweet person. Before we went on vacation she came to meet me and my cat and they seemed to get along very well. I could tell that Yvette loves and cares for all animals very much based on the way she responded to my cat. I also knew that she had a cat of her own so there wasn't much instruction required. I knew that she would take good care of her. During our vacation Yvette sent us with an e-mail update on how Ellie was doing. It was very nice and thoughtful of her to do so as it brought us peace of mind while we were away. Ellie was a happy kitty when we came home and I would definitely use Tail Blazer's services again for future vacations. Great service. Great business. Very reliable. I would reccomend to anyone that needs a cat sitter.

This month, we had to put our dog, Ginger, down after 15 beautiful years with her. Looking back…read moreover Ginger's life, we are most grateful for the superb care that she received over the years at Barking Along. As a first time dog owner, I was lucky to be given the gift of Aviva's experience, generous guidance and sound judgement. Ginger's time at Barking Along was wonderful and I learned to have total confidence in Aviva and Lily. When our family went on vacations, Ginger boarded with Aviva, and we could go away with peace of mind knowing that Ginger was in the best of hands. Ginger was a calm, friendly, and happy dog and we know that this was in large part due to the fact that she spent many of her days as a puppy at Barking Along. We are so thankful for the dedication and expertise of Aviva and Lily. As we mourn the loss of Ginger, it is a great comfort to know that we gave her a safe and wonderful time both at home and when she was at her home-away-from-home, Barking Along.

I can't believe I have not written a review on this amazing place with it's amazing people!!…read more This is an super late review but it actually is also happening at a great time in life. I have a Filipino Street Dogs named Rex who we got a in January of 2022. As a first time dog owner in Canada, I knew I would like for Rex to have the proper training and also would like for him to have a place to go to for sleep overs and play dates. Thankfully I found Parkers Pet Care as it is close to our place. I inquired about puppy school and day care with Parker's and they were very prompt and professional yet personable in their responses. Rex came in for a trial day to see how he would react or adjust to a new environment. At 3 months old and only having him for 1 month, he was very timid and scared of every new surroundings. Yet Parkers took him in for a trial day. Unfortunately he failed his trial day. But the owner Andrew was great and gave Rex a second chance. A second chance that he needed. Andrew took Rex with him and went on with his daily business meetings with rex beside him. Come pick up time and Andrew told us that Rex did great and that Rex has been welcomed into the Parker Pet Care Family. Rex then needed puppy training. Miss Landis who leads the puppy school at Parkers has been nothing but spectacular with training Rex. This is not like any other dog training classes where the owner has to come in for training as well. It really is a "school" format, drop off your furry child and pick him/her up when school is done and then do the homework with them. How convenient and amazing is that!? Miss Landis along with her crew of wonderful people have done wonders with Mr. Rex or Sexy Rexy and helped us bring out the playful and jolly spirit inside of Rex. He has done puppy school and intermediate school there. Both great experience. Also would like to thank Ms. Jade who also has been a part of Rex's training. The wonderful ladies working the front end. All lovely and beautiful and always so welcoming to both animals and hoomans. I wish I could name them all but trust me when I say every person in Parkers is awesome. They show Rex soooo much love that at one point, Rex has gone from needing encouragement to be taken to the back, to Rex being so comfortable with them that he leads them to the back! Oh, and also the awesome staff working the background, those I've never met or dealt with directly but ensures Rex has a jolly ol time with them, thank you very much. The pictures we get during his stay there says he is loving his time there. We also really love and appreciate the staff going the extra mile with their themed events/pictures. Also love the new renovations in terms of play areas! Sadly we have to move outside of Ontario that we won't get to take Rex to his favourite play place. During his last stay, the staff really showed him Soo much love (see his IG post/photo). But rest assured Rex will be back!

This was Liam's third stay at the North York location, and it will be his last…read more On his first stay, I dropped off a healthy, clean dog and received an email the next day saying he had developed dried eye discharge, which staff had cleaned. I gave the benefit of the doubt. On his second stay, the same eye issue occurred again and was initially dismissed as dust. When I picked him up, his bark was strained and barely audible. I was told he had been barking while watching other dogs. After a few days of rest at home, his voice returned -- but it raised concerns about supervision and the environment. During his third stay, I was contacted and told he was limping while I was out of the country. Concerned, I arranged for my veterinary assistant to examine him the following morning. She confirmed there was nothing wrong with his back legs. He has always had a distinctive hop in his gait, which is not a new development. In addition, I have observed frequent staff turnover and a lack of organization. When I picked him up (after returning from Europe 14 days earlier), three staff members were sitting in the lobby on their phones. His belongings were returned in a disorganized manner, one coat was initially missing, and the bottom of his treat bag was damp. I also received a message stating that another dog was mounting him but that he "sets his boundaries well." As a paying client, I expect consistent supervision, cleanliness, and professionalism -- not reassurance that my small dog can manage situations himself. Repeated issues that only occur while he is in their care, combined with the lack of accountability and organization I have observed, have made it clear that this facility is not suited for my dog. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this location.
