Warning: This company allows unapproved individuals into your home…read more In December 2022, I hired Delise to watch my dogs. While the meet-and-greet went well, I was disappointed to discover that she brought her daughter and another individual into my home during a dog drop-in without my prior approval. It seems logical and reasonable to expect that only the person I met and approved would be entering my home. Allowing others to accompany the dog walker without explicit client consent raises concerns about home security and privacy. When I spoke with Jonna recently, I was surprised and disappointed to learn that the company's policy explicitly allows dog walkers to bring other individuals, such as family members, friends, or minor children, into clients' homes unless the client specifically requests otherwise. Instead of apologizing for this or acknowledging my concerns, Jonna shifted the blame onto the client for not explicitly stating that no one else was allowed. This response was frustrating, as it seems impractical to expect clients to anticipate such a scenario and establish boundaries that should be standard practice. Additionally, when I mentioned that I planned to share this policy on Yelp to educate others who may not be aware, Jonna became upset and accused me of threatening her, which was not my intent. I simply believe that transparency around this policy is crucial for clients, especially those who prioritize home security. From a liability and insurance standpoint, it seems unreasonable and risky for a company to permit non-approved individuals in private homes without explicit client consent. Transparency around this policy is crucial, especially for clients who prioritize home security, as it is not intuitive to assume that additional, unapproved individuals would be present during appointments. Attached is one picture validating at least two individuals in my home - only one approved that had met my dogs prior.

I've never had issues with communication, cancellations, rescheduling or doggie care. My papillon mix furball loves her. She gets walks only but her behavior has also improved since starting walks with Lisa. The days she is walked she's super happy. To top it off I get the most beautiful pics from the visit. Lisa has advanced training in animal behavior and her fees reflect this. She is worth every cent!

Lisa has been walking my dog for over two years and she is amazing! She's beyond reliable and…read morealways has been great with add-on walks if I get stuck in the office or have to be away for longer periods of time on the weekends. My dog is a larger dog and is able to keep complete control of him. She has also worked in training as a part of her time with him. Over the hears he's gotten much less reactive in situations he would have previously found stressful. In short: best dog walker ever.

You would be incredibly fortunate to have Julie take care of your pets--she is THE BEST we have ever used!

We are so lucky to have found such a great dog sitter. I love how she takes pictures and texts them to my wife (it makes us feel like we are there at home with our dogs while we are away) and is willing to administer meds if any of our pups are sick. It takes a pretty high level of trust to copy a key and give an alarm code to an individual that you are not related to. Julie is like a family member. If you are looking for a dog sitter we highly recommend her. Thanks Julie!

We found her first when we were leaving in Culver City and we drove to Torrance to drop off our sweet boy. Then we moved to Torrance and were practically neighbors! And when we move to San Diego, I drove Marchie (yes!) to Lori to Torrance because I trusted her, our dog trusted her! She is amazing, caring and very kind to all the doggies. She has very good communication and will send pics to calm you down so you can truly enjoy your trip and not worry about your pet. I never worried about my fur baby because I knew that he was at his 2nd house. Thank you Lori for all the years of carrying for our fur baby. I know he watches over your family too because to him your house was his 2nd home.

While they do provide report cards, have cameras, and have staff continuously clearing the play area, it still does smell a bit like dog pee when you walk in due to there not being any outdoor space/ventilation to the outside (to my knowledge, the other day cares I've visited don't have this same issue). I did the 3 days of daycare for $49 special and just used one day since I found another daycare closer to me with an outdoor area. If you live in Torrance then this is a great option for you. The staff here is really kind and the older woman who works at the front desk has her sales pitch down pat! She doesn't come off as sales oriented but she told me all about the different things they offered and I was eating it up. Props to them for having such a great staff.

Anita was truly an answer to our desperate doggie prayers! We have 4 dogs, all of which have very…read moredifferent personalities- but two of which were completely out of control. Taking them on their daily walks was very stressful because they would constantly bark, lunge, and pull on the leash when they saw anything that moved. It didn't matter if they saw another dog, a human, a squirrel, or even a leaf blowing by, they lost their minds and it took an act of Congress to get them to calm down and listen to us. They were so reactive, it was scary to take them out in public, so we started avoiding going out during the day. Instead, we opted to take them out in walks only early morning, or late at night when the chances of running into other people or dogs was much lower. It really limited our options. Anita came into our lives immediately helped to show us what was happening, and how we could start to unlearn the unwanted behaviors. She was so kind, gentle, and yet, she was also firm with our pups. And that's exactly what they needed! After training with Anita, all four pups are living their best lives out in public. They are so much more responsive to us and as a result, we can take them anywhere. Now we go looking for trouble instead of avoiding it Thanks Anita! You and your Malinois Essie are incredible!

My food loving Boxers would rather go on an early morning play date than eat breakfast- which is really saying something! She has changed our lives for the better. Happy dogs and happy humans
