I got my second cat, Billy the Kitty, through this wonderful non-profit, all-volunteer rescue…read moreorganization. Sally Welch, the owner and kitty-caretaker extraordinaire, was a great help in organizing Billy's adjustment to my home, allowing me to foster him first to make sure he got along well with my spazzy little female, Knuckles. Within a month, they began cuddling, and now they sandwich me at night and roll around like dervishes, play-fighting. Billy is such a butterball of love; I don't know what Knuckles and I would do without him! Sally does this work completely from the heart, and I am very glad to have supported this organization. Seriously consider this source for your new family member! (They have some bunnies, now, too!)

She let us foster him first to make sure he got along with our other cat. He was sent with his cat box, bedding and food. Sally goes above and beyond to find loving, caring homes for all of her animals. If you're looking to adopt an animal I highly recommend FFF.

She actually got excited getting out of the car and going in today! They put a little scarf on her when they finish, it's very cute. When we got home I took the scarf off and she immediately picked it up, smelt it, ( it smells like spa), licked it and walked around with it in her mouth. Currently she is sleeping on my lap wearing her scarf and seems very happy.. this groomer obviously makes my pup feel safe and comfortable. That's very important to me.. I think it's important to most dog owners.

Wow, what a blessing to have Shintos in our area!…read more Our finicky 17-year-old pup is still going strong and we would like to keep it that way! Lindsey and her team truly care about each and every pet and their hard work and dedication shines through in their magnificent product! We will forever be customers (our dogs would have it no other way), but as an added bonus, I feel so grateful to genuinely feel like a friend of the staff when I walk in! Their warm nature, helpful advice and genuine concern is something a lot of businesses are lacking these days. They never cease to amaze me and I'm so grateful to have found them!!

I discovered Shinto's recently at the Marin County Farmer's Market (the one in San Rafael @ the…read moreCivic Center). So glad I did! Their pet food stand was a welcome change of pace from all the other farm/bakery vendors. Don't get me wrong - I love coming here for all the human food options. But it's nice when I can find yummy treats to bring home for my dog (while also supporting a local business). The lady working the Shinto's stand couldn't have been nicer. I told her that I was looking for a long-lasting bone for my pooch to chew on (and one that won't disappear after 10 minutes). She immediately recommended their Beef Femur Bones (I've attached a photo to their biz page gallery). These Flintstone-size bones are for pets 25 lbs and up. Best of all, they're gluten/soy/corn free. So you can rest assured that your dog is getting nothing but the good stuff. The Beef Fermur bone only wound up costing me 10 ($) bones. Maybe it's a bit pricey for a dog snack. But you know what - my dog's worth it! BTW, while the nice lady rang up my purchase, she handed me a free beef jerky treat to give to my dog. It was very kind of her. Long story short, Shinto's was a great, unexpected find. I can't wait to surprise my furry friend tonight with his special treat. He'll undoubtedly be in doggy paradise.

He is a larger dog and absolutely hates getting his nails trimmed, fought like crazy when I first brought him in almost a year ago, and to complicate things further he also has aggression towards other dogs. Heidi completely understood his fear and has been the most patient, kind, understanding, and calm person to help him get over his fear I have ever met. He now sits relatively quiet when she does his nails, she has been such a wonderful, calming presence to help my guy get over his fears. I love how they genuinely care about the needs of the pets. I HIGHLY recommend this place!
