Kristy was amazing--she sent regular photos and updates, responded quickly, and truly went above and beyond to make sure Stella felt safe and comfortable. Stella is a Min Pin/Chihuahua mix and can be very nervous around new people, but Kristy was so patient and gentle that Stella warmed up to her in no time. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my fur baby was in such caring hands. This was my first time using a pet sitting service, and I'm so grateful it was such a positive experience. I would absolutely recommend Kristy to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring. Thank you again! We will be using her again!

This is a bit long, but stick with me, it's worth the read. :)…read more I want to share this because I know how overwhelming life with dogs can feel when things spiral out of control, and because truly great dog trainers are rare. Last year, I lost my dog Chloe. I had her for 15 years, and losing her completely broke my heart. Afterward, I adopted Lily, a multipoo who had never been out of a cage. She came from a puppy mill and was deeply traumatized. She shook constantly, wouldn't come to me, wouldn't let me touch her, and had severe anxiety. She was peeing and pooping in the house nonstop. I tried everything I knew. I tried love, patience, reassurance. Nothing worked. I was exhausted and completely at a loss. Then life threw me another curveball. A client of mine broke her hip after tripping over her dog and had to move into assisted living. I took in her one-year-old Schipperke named Daisy. If you aren't familiar with this breed, 'the little black devil.' Daisy is the sweetest, smartest dog in the world and also an absolute mischievous chainsaw in a tiny body. Endless energy, barking at people and dogs, running through the house nonstop, biting my neighbor on the ankle and even the gardener, and bullying Lily relentlessly. My house turned into chaos overnight. On top of that, I still had my 13-year-old dog Rocky, who is basically the best-behaved dog on the planet and thankfully not part of the problem. I didn't know what to do anymore. That's when I called Jennifer. Jen took Daisy for a two-week board-and-train, and when Daisy came home, she was a completely different dog. Not perfect, but honestly a million times better. She sleeps in a crate now, no longer bullies Lily, listens extremely well, and while she still barks, it's nothing like before. We're still working on it with Jen, but the transformation was incredible. After that, I sent Lily to Jen. What happened next honestly felt like a miracle. Lily no longer pees or poops in the house. She sleeps in a crate. She comes when I call her. She's happy. She plays. She acts like a dog now, not a scared abuse victim. She still has moments of anxiety and fear, but she is doing a million times better, and the difference is night and day. Jen didn't just train my dogs. She gave them structure, confidence, and safety. She gave me peace in my own home again. She understands dogs on a level that is rare, especially dogs with trauma, anxiety, and behavioral challenges. If you are struggling, overwhelmed, or don't know what else to do, I cannot recommend Jen enough. She is patient, intuitive, honest, and incredibly skilled. She truly changed our lives.

I can't say enough amazing things about Coach Mike and the confidence he's helped me build--not…read morejust in my dogs, but in myself. Before working with him, walks were stressful and unpredictable, especially when we'd run into people with multiple dogs or a dog that was reactive on leash. Now I actually look forward to our walks. I feel calm, in control, and I know exactly how to respond in those situations instead of feeling overwhelmed. Two of my dogs, Paulie (my Great Dane) and Axel (my miniature pinscher), have had incredible transformations. Paulie is so much more focused and responsive, and Axel--who used to be on high alert the entire time--can now pass other dogs without going into full chaos mode. Seeing the progress in both of them has been amazing and honestly emotional. What makes Coach Mike stand out is that he doesn't just train your dogs--he trains you. He explains the "why" behind everything, walks you through real-life scenarios, and makes sure you leave each session feeling capable and confident. Thanks to him, when I see another owner with multiple dogs or a leash-aggressive dog, I don't panic--I handle it. This has been one of the best investments I've ever made for my dogs and my peace of mind. If you're looking for someone who truly changes your day-to-day life with your dogs, Coach Mike is the one.

My dog was hurt at a DogTrainer's Place in Corona called Well Mannered Bullies. It was at the…read morefacility at the owner's home, 1880 Garretson Avenue in Corona. I am re-posting this and putting things in chronological order. I am a disabled person; I really needed a trainer because the dog was too wild and if you return a dog to the pound then that dog gets put down. When I adopted this new Pitt, I also adopted another one that was left to die at the pound at 14 years old. I kept that other, much older one for 9 months, and finally just found a forever home for him (he didn't like to be left alone at my house and was very unhappy). So for my new Pitt Puppy (not the older dog), the manager gave me a discount and my money was scarce (and some other trainers charge like 10 grand a month) so I thought it was a good deal. At first, he was friendly, but he soon became constantly rude and ridiculous. I only kept him on because he already had been training my dog and every time I went to go visit her, she seemed okay. She didn't seem abused at any point--until the end. So I had had problems getting the new puppy pitt to get along with my other German Shepherd, so I was taking one, leaving the other, and so on. But my pitt puppy was always there. Then one day I came to pick her up and she had wounds on all of her feet. Her back leg was bleeding. Mike Williams, the trainer, would not even talk to me about any of this, he just gave me attitude and kept complaining about "being fired" by me--because I was firing him right then. All he cared about was being fired. I realize dogs can get wounded at a kennel, so I was open minded and tried to give him a chance, but this was ridiculous. I really tried to ask him what could have caused this. He just got angry. On the way home, I realized she had something (a wound or rash or whatever?) on her face also. I took her to the vet ($650) and the vet said she had wounds consistent with fence injuries and a puncture wound on her back leg and something on her face. I found a very difficult road to get more money, and took my puppy to a new trainer, and that trainer said that "as soon as you put the dog into a kennel--she acts like a rabid dog." I couldn't believe it, so they videotaped it and showed me. They said the prior trainer must have abused her "in the kennel" so she could learn to react like this. I adopted her from a kennel setting and she had never acted like this at all. I had had her for months and nursed her back from a serious case of pneumonia she had gotten at the dog pound, so I knew her and she was not like this at all. During my time paying MIke Williams, he did the following and this is all factual: --he got confused on paid money and then said, "You know I smoke Bud, right?;" --talked to me about the personal business of his clients; --acted rudely and angry and criticized me literally every time I saw him about things not dog related; --told me not to ever give a dog unnecessary affection (constantly said that); --constantly complained about the discount he gave me; --told me he "just wanted to never get another bad review" (to which I replied, aren't you more concerned about giving good service?); -- when I pulled up for his supposed weekly coaching sessions, he ignored me to recruit new clients walking up and down the street; --he bragged about hitting his own dogs but said it would never happen to client's dog (I never saw any clues he abused my dogs and he was very delicate with them in front of me); --I never saw any bad reviews on him (Google) and he sold me on kindness to start off);--when I asked him not to become angry, he said, "Don't say I'm angry!" and got all bothered about that. So the vet bills costed me $650 and I had to look for a new trainer. The new trainers say they are clearly cleaning up the mess from this trainer. I had pre-paid two weeks of fees (hundreds) and he said he'd refund me when I told him i wasn't coming back. He told me he would refund me more than once. Then he never did. The damage he did to my dog psychologically is the main concern--and the physical damage was bad but went away quickly. This is just unbelievable. I really worry about my puppy now and am spending lots of money fixing the mess Mike Williams and his facility caused. He really should not be allowed near dogs at all. When I got my dog home, she drank water for two minutes straight. I have never seen that before. I am utterly disgusted and very angry that he would mistreat a caged animal. One must be a coward to mistreat an animal with a lower IQ than a small child. My groomer said he probably kicked the cage every day. I will never know if he did--but the damage is done. Now I am a disabled person, I am and was doing the best I can. I am just warning other dog owners so they can avoid him. I wish I would have read yelp.

This was the second time I boarded my dog at this facility, and unfortunately, both visits ended with her coming home sick. After her most recent stay, she developed kennel cough. After her first stay, she came home with kennel cough and an eye infection. While I understand that illnesses can occur in any boarding environment, having it happen both times is extremely concerning. Health Issues This was the second time I boarded my dog at this facility, and unfortunately, both visits ended with her coming home sick. After her most recent stay, she developed kennel cough. After her first stay, she came home with kennel cough and an eye infection. While I understand that illnesses can occur in any boarding environment, having it happen both times is extremely concerning. Care Instructions and Facility Handling I was also disappointed that Duchess's care instructions were not updated during check-in. She is no longer a puppy and no longer chews, yet her paperwork still reflected outdated information. Because of that, she wasn't given the blanket or bed that should have been placed on top of her cot. This should have been caught and corrected by the staff during the check-in process. (I was also told I was unable to leave her blanket and toy from home, which should have been communicated at the time of reservation.) While watching the facility cameras, I also saw another dog placed in Duchess's room for a period of time, although I was never given an explanation as to why. Later, I learned that Duchess had been moved out of her room around midnight because the room needed to be painted. I was never notified that she had been relocated, and I found that very concerning. Communication and Monitoring Concerns To make matters worse, I was unable to access the cameras during the night. Around 3:30 a.m., I became worried because I couldn't see Duchess and had no idea she had been moved. I called the facility, but no one answered. As a pet owner, that was incredibly stressful and upsetting. Customer Service and Response When I called after bringing Duchess home to discuss everything that had happened, I was shocked by the manager's response. Rather than showing concern or empathy, I was told, "Well, you signed a waiver." While I understand that boarding facilities require waivers, a waiver should never be used to dismiss a customer's legitimate concerns or excuse poor communication and preventable issues. That response left me feeling that Duchess's well-being--and my concerns as her owner--were not taken seriously. Overall Experience Any one of these issues might have been understandable on its own, but taken together, they reflect a lack of communication, attention to detail, and accountability. I understand that boarding facilities care for many dogs and that no facility can completely eliminate the risk of contagious illnesses. However, I do expect accurate records, clear communication, transparency when changes are made involving my dog's care, and compassionate customer service when concerns are raised. After two disappointing experiences and two hefty vet bills, I can no longer trust this facility with Duchess and will not be boarding her here again. I hope this review encourages the facility to make meaningful improvements so that other families--and their beloved pets--don't have a similar experience. Our pets can't tell us what happened while they were away, so trust and communication are everything!!
