Had to use most the bottle, same with the conditioner still with no satisfactory results. Our dog is very hairy and has some knots. I couldn't even get one knot out with that watered down conditioner. I couldn't dry my dog because she needed all her knots taken out so I have to go home and do it all over again with my own stuff. I'll never go back there again. Ok I get home my daughter tells me I'm supposed to use the entirely of the bottles? That's crazy! & then would just take forever, Plus when I asked for a comb the woman picks up my half used bottle of shampoo & says "you used that much!" So I believe my daughter is WRONG.

Sheryl Carver helped me become my dogs' best friend. I worked with Sheryl to address my boy's…read moreanxiety, his leash pulling, and my female puppy's dog reactivity. Initially, we met at my home to work with my dogs, and then, after Sheryl moved out of state, we were able to work by phone when new issues came up. Sheryl is extraordinarily compassionate and empathic towards both people and dogs, and she taught me to observe my dogs' behavior and be supportive rather than frustrated. My dogs are relaxed and there is more tail-wagging in our home, and when doing conformation and performance events, they are more confident, enthusiastic---and easier to train! Sheryl is also a fantastic instructor in the Tellington TTouch Training, and with her guidance, I started using this method to deepen my bond with my dogs. I have worked with many different dog trainers, and Sheryl is the best!

Sheryl is our favorite dog trainer - I found her through the Association of Pet Dog Trainers…read morewebsite (heard that they were good). Our dog, Flash, is a rescue mutt who had been abandoned, and Sheryl's approach worked great for him. She used positive reinforcement, and was always gentle. Flash responded really well to her, and everyone else who we know who has hired her has been pleased with the results. Sheryl came to our home for private lessons, and was fabulous. (She travels around the Peninsula to various clients during the week.) I like that Sheryl has a lot of patience and found a way to make our dog think learning can be fun. Our dog had a lot of anxiety, and she helped him relax and enjoy learning. She also does some bodywork on pets, if clients want that along with the training: Jin Shin Jyutsu (like acupressure) Tellington TTouch (like Feldenkrais for animals) We treated Flash to some of her bodywork, and he went from hyper and anxious to super, ultra-calm and mellow. Sheryl's definitely one of his favorite humans. We were afraid we'd have to find our previously wild dog a new home after having a baby, but we've learned a lot from her and we're a happy family! We credit Sheryl (and some key lay-out changes suggested by baby-proofer Larry Mitchell) with enabling us to keep our dog after having our baby. That was HUGE! We did some clicker training (not initially, but later on), and our most useful command (with or without the clicker) is "In your crate." Sheryl adjusted to what our needs were, so we learned what was a priority for us when we needed it. Thanks to Sheryl, Flash also knows (among others) on your bed, shake, wait, sit, stay, down, touch, and where's daddy?.

Their grounds are serene and beautifully maintained, offering a sacred space where our companions can rest with dignity. I want to express my deepest gratitude to Teresa and Julio, whose compassion and professionalism were truly a blessing. Teresa guided me with patience, gentleness, and understanding, making every step feel supported. Julio handled Darla's arrangements with profound respect, treating her as a cherished soul rather than just a pet. Their kindness reflected true humanity and grace. In a moment of grief, they offered not only service but comfort rooted in compassion, reminding me that God watches over all His creatures. I felt that Darla was honored, cared for, and entrusted to a place where love continues beyond this life. Pets Rest Cemetery is more than a resting place -- it is a sanctuary. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a peaceful, respectful, and spiritually comforting place to honor their beloved companion. I'd like to thank everyone at Pets rest cemetery for your patience and support! From, The Amaya Family!

Sadly, Dr. Randle moved to another practice and my friend starting taking her dog there. I decided to stay at Pacifica Pet Hospital because I feel like they are always open and honest about their charges and don't ever feel like I'm being ripped off. Now Ranger sees Dr. Choi and I really like him. He takes the time to explain issues/findings to us, answers our questions thoroughly and always friendly and professional. The staff members at Pacifica Pet are wonderful, too. Whether on the phone or in-person, I'm greeted with a smile and helpfulness. Ranger, on the other hand, absolutely dreads visiting the vet! He tries to escape through the front door every time we visit. This totally reminds me of my kids when they were little visiting the pediatrician for vaccines.

A person called up for an emergency issue, and the staff spend a lot of time walking through all the options, and due to the limitations that day, even provided alternate vets in the area.

They were busy and did take a little time to check me out, but their heart is in the right place, so it's a win regardless. Give them a try, plus its in Pacifica, so after treat your dog to a walk on the beach!!
