    Sparky's "Manners I" graduation photo.

    I signed my dog, Sparky, up for training classes at Every Dawg's Dream after reading the reviews on Yelp and studying their website and FB page, and I'm very happy that I did! After only five classes, my high-energy, easily distracted, four-pound Maltese puppy knows how to sit, lie down, settle, look, touch, and leave it--all on cue! When I first met owner/trainer Mariela, I told her, "My dog will never 'sit.'" (All he ever did was dance around on his hind legs.) But Mariela and the clicker training method proved me wrong. Sparky learned how to sit on cue in no time. I've had dogs all my adult life and have attended other types of training classes, but nothing has ever worked as quickly and easily as the clicker method. The dogs just seem to "get it" right away. (It took about three "click-and-treats" before Sparky realized that that "click" means "yummy treat.") Mariela is extremely knowledgeable and adapts the technique to each dog's specific needs. And, best of all, the method is 100 percent positive reinforcement; there are no corrections or punishments--because you don't need them! I HIGHLY recommend Every Dawg's Dream! The prices are very reasonable and the results are amazing! We can hardly wait to get started on the next level of classes.

After just one week, we came in for a training session and already noticed a significant improvement. We then went away for two more weeks, and every single day we received photos, videos, and detailed updates. The communication was exceptional! You can really feel the heart, love, and care they pour into every dog, and that makes all the difference. A special thank you to Casandra and AJ, who are incredible trainers so kind, thoughtful, and genuinely gifted at what they do. They gave our dog the most impactful framework and boundaries, and it's clear they pour their hearts into every animal in their care. That level of dedication is exactly what you want when deciding where to send your dog. We look forward to daycare, continued training, and group dog walks. We are forever grateful to The Bark Collective. We can't recommend them highly enough!

Krista put me at ease immediately with asking in depth questions about my dogs tendencies, behaviors, and personality. We have only left him once at a farm kennel and I was worried that his high energy may be too much to handle with other dogs. She described the dogs that were staying the weekend and told me to plan on booking with her, even though she had not met Milton yet. Krista and I spoke for well over 20 minutes and she said that if she was at all concerned, she would not book us because she typically doesn't take boxers due to their escape artist jumping style. He is a 2 yr old boxer mix with SO much energy yet noise phobia diagnosed by our trainer Jennifer McCarthy. We arrived on Friday afternoon and Milton met the other pups one at a time. He showed some weird territorial behavior so we stayed for a bit to correct it. She was so calming and reassuring and after a tour of her home we snuck out the back so Milton wouldn't watch us leave. He was playing so well with the other 2 dogs of his size and she made sure to keep the smaller dogs in a different area. We got so many photos and updates I was super happy and relaxed. Krista even let us book Milton an extra day! From the mouth of a professional dog sitter, and my partner has his own dog walking company, we both highly recommend Krista's services! (i ruved kwista! she gav me lots of kisses and rubs! --Milton)

She took care of my four pups so well, they miss her. She took them on walks, sent me daily photos via mms, applied medicine and lavished them with love. Don't hesitate to give her a call. She will come over for an acquaintance visit to see how your family operates, then you have someone to rely upon for when you are away. I feel like I have a new freedom I didn't have before. I finally found someone nearby whom I can trust.

My 54 lb Jindo does not do well with strangers, she is all bark but no bite. I was very anxious bringing her to any dog care but Wendy was willing to do an assessment prior to their stay. This was my very first time doing any sort of dog care so I was really worried about leaving them. They did really well and my other dog had so much fun (he's a social butterfly). The main reason I chose this place vs all the other dog boarding is because they offer a "home" living experience rather than a facility/warehouse. My dogs always freely roams the house and lays on our bed, couch, wherever they please so I wanted something similar and Wendy's house provided that. I couldn't bare the thought of them being kept in a narrow sleeping quarter locked throughout the day. Thank you for taking great care of my babies! This place will definitely be my go-to for any future dog boarding.

    Leaving our dogs Jax and Frank for a whole week was something we were honestly nervous about…read morebecause they've never stayed with anyone outside of our family before. From the moment we dropped them off, the entire experience put us completely at ease. We received constant updates, photos, and messages from Wendy and Madison, letting us know how they were doing, which meant so much to us and made being away from them so much easier. It was clear they were genuinely cared for, loved, and treated like family the entire time they were there. Seeing Jax and Frank happy, comfortable, and well taken care of gave us so much peace of mind. You can truly tell OC Paw House cares deeply about the animals they watch. We are beyond grateful for the care they gave our boys and will absolutely be using them again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive place for their dogs!

The first couple times we used Sitter4Paws we had a really great experience with the sitters that were assigned to our senior, diabetic cat. Last year, my mother unexpectedly passed away, and our regular cat sitter was unavailable for half of the trip home. We booked Sitter4Paws the second half of the trip, and let them know about the circumstances and requested sitters that had seen Jodie before so that we could rest easy during a very difficult time. Of course we know that can't always be accommodated due to scheduling, so for the first visit a new sitter came to see Jodie. On the evening of my mother's passing, we got a text from Sitter4Paws that the sitter felt he may have made a mistake with our cat's insulin dosage. It was revealed to us that instead of giving her her normal 2.25 unit dose, he gave her 22.5 units - ignoring the taped off/labeled syringes, our explicit written instructions in the app, and additional photos/diagrams of what a full syringe should look like. Thank god he realized his mistake, otherwise our cat would have slowly died alone in our apartment - and this would have happened immediately after losing my mom. I understand mistakes can happen, but the fact that a sitter was uncertain with potentially life-threatening medication if administered improperly and didn't even think to reach out to us first was quite shocking. Sitter4Paws took full responsibility, admitted their mistake, said they would take steps to make sure something like this would never happen again, and covered her 4 day ER stay, but it never should have gotten to that point. Again - we did have great sitters who took care of our cat wonderfully - but the uncertainty of who you can get especially with medication involved means that we can no longer recommend this service with confidence.
