We decided to go with Lucky Buddies as they were close by, had great reviews, and have been around our neighborhood for some time. I'm so glad we took a chance and used them!

Extension of my previous review because it was off putting that this business would prefer to…read moredeflect than accept feedback. 1. Regarding my pup contracting Giardia--I already stated in my original review that I understand parasites are common and my puppy was probably more susceptible, so I wasn't placing blame on the facility. Just a warning that these things happen. However I would like to point out that my dog did not go anywhere else besides home and their facility (since theyre insinuating that it could've been contracted elsewhere). Additionally, the fact that Furrtropolis requires a negative fecal test every 6 months is a warning in itself that any dog could be carrying a parasite between that time, so this requirement isn't full proof. This is just the nature of daycares and boarding facilities, and it wasn't the sole reason I decided we wouldn't be returning. 2. Regarding kennel cough--again just spreading the warning of what my dog experienced coming back from the facility. I'm fully aware they don't have control over the health of every dog that enters. 3. Records show that we were in contact, because as I stated in my review, I would have to continously badger the staff in order to get any updates. Yes, responses were prompt but that wasn't the issue. It was getting updates to begin with, without me having to reach out on the 4th day of boarding to ask how things went. I've seen other boarding places have cameras or provide daily updates (on meals, training sessions, nap time, etc)--totally fine if this isn't one of those places and you're a dog parent that doesn't mind. It's just not for me. *I also want to clarify that I directly expressed to the staff multiple times of wanting more communication/updates and it not being met before I came to yelp* 4. This just further proves my point on the poor communication from this facility, the fact that I wasn't made aware my pup might have had a decrease in appetite or activity level is serious alarm bells. Both of those things would indicate to me that something is off since my dog normally has endless energy and a black hole for a stomach. At the very least, a simple update that my dog just finished his additional 1:1 training session/1:1 play session that I paid extra for would've been nice. My dog is the love of my life and I'm sure other pet parents feel the same. It's important for me to share my experiences to provide insight for others and so the business can improve for others.

We love Allie's Doggie Day Camp! Captain has been boarded with Allie before and goes to day camp…read moreabout 1-2 times a week, and he genuinely loves it there. He's always SO excited to run in when we arrive, and he comes home completely pooped every time (in the best way). Allie is super communicative, really sweet, and clearly understands dogs. It's obvious she cares a lot and treats them like her own. We always feel really comfortable leaving Captain with her and knowing he's in good hands. Highly recommend!

I…read morebrought her every day Allie was open because I wanted her properly socialized and surrounded by positive experiences early. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made. As soon as we get to the gate, Mocha starts smelling all her friends' leashes and can barely control her wiggles. She is THAT excited to be there! At just one year old, she's the sweetest, gentlest girl. She understands pack hierarchy, respects our tiny 16-year-old 4-pound Chihuahua, is gentle with our 13-year-old big dog, and even knows how to wait her turn. That doesn't happen by accident. Dogs are truly Allie's specialty, and it shows. I genuinely believe Mocha wouldn't be the precious dog she is today without Allie's knowledge, structure, and care. We are so grateful.

I hardly ever leave reviews, but I want to give hope to anyone who is struggling with their dog and…read morefeeling frustrated and helpless. The first year with my golden retriever, Luka, was extremely hard. He was a mouthy dog who had zero boundaries at home or outside. He would get excited or frustrated and grab/bite onto my shoes or clothes daily. Walking him became an impossible task because he was extremely dog-reactive, and he dragged me a couple of times while trying to chase another dog. Walking him also became a two-person job, with someone always on the lookout for other dogs so we could turn the other way. He also began to resource guard and snapped at my dad twice.. I had already spent thousands on another trainer and didn't have much success. I began to feel like this was just what life with Luka would be like forever. It got to the point where I felt scared of him, and the life I was giving him out of that fear wasn't fair to him. So I decided to try and get help one last time. I found Lori's page and after reading the reviews I became hopeful again. I took Luka in for an evaluation, and Lori recommended their board-and-train program. I can't thank Chelsea and Lori enough for everything they've done. I've learned so much about Luka, how to manage different situations, and how to better understand his behavior. We had training lessons throughout his board-and-train stay and afterward, because we are the ones who need most of the training! Chelsea did an amazing job with Luka. At home, Luka is unrecognizable in the best way. We can actually go on adventures outside without being terrified that we won't be able to handle him. Those who knew Luka before his stay and see him now always comment on how well he is doing. I cannot recommend Lori Hamilton's Dog training enough to anyone who feels like they've tried everything and is feeling discouraged. I am so thankful because it finally feels like Luka and I can start living life and enjoying everything around us.

In this case, the passion is directed toward the animals for which Catalina cares. A massive amount of trust is necessary, at least for me, in order to leave my beloved animals with someone and I do this with ease knowing that Dog Duty will not only care for my animals but also show them love and affection whilst I travel. I have 5 cats and a dog and have no worry leaving them with Catalina for weeks at a time, due to work. I personally recommend them to anyone looking for not just care for their animals but the peace of mind that they pets will be loved and cared for. Additionally, and perhaps equally as important, Catalina is a great communicator and leaves you with no concern about what's happening back home when you're away. I love working with her and am truly grateful to have found such a good pet sitter.

We cannot say enough amazing things about Wag Hotels Santa Clara. Our first beloved husky, Bolty,…read morespent his entire life going here, and it truly became his second home. When he passed at just 7 years old, we were absolutely heartbroken, but the compassion, kindness, and genuine support from the Wag Santa Clara team meant more to us than we can ever express. They didn't just care for Bolty, they loved him. And we felt that every step of the way. Honestly, I think Bolty had some of the best days of his life there... sometimes I even joked he loved it more than being at home with us. During one of the most difficult times in our lives, the team showed us such warmth and empathy. We are forever grateful. Fast forward two years later, we adopted another husky, and sure enough, he is obsessed with Wag Santa Clara too (must be a husky thing ). And we completely understand why. From the moment you walk in, you are treated like extended family. There is a level of trust and comfort here that is truly rare. We can leave knowing our pup is not just being watched, but genuinely cared for and loved as if he were their own. We've boarded our dogs here for years, and even the overnight staff, who you don't often see, show the same level of dedication, compassion, and attentiveness. That consistency says everything. We are huge fans of Wag Santa Clara and highly recommend all of their services from boarding, daycare, and grooming. If you're looking for a place that will treat your pet like family, this is it. Forever grateful
