I recently moved to Massachusetts and was looking for someone local to occasionally watch my dogs…read more It was a total stroke of luck to find John and his pack. John is truly concerned about the dogs and their physical and social well being. He has spent time getting to know both dogs and their individual personalities. One of my dogs is not always nice to other dogs; John went out of his way to work with her and slowly introduce her to his pack. John studied methods of working with aggressive/strong prey drive dogs, and has helped my girl become much more social. Although we still do not trust her 100%, she has made great strides. I highly recommend John and his House of Dogs for boarding/training/walking.

John really took the time to get to know her and introduce her to his "pack" before she stayed with him. He took great care of her. He even made her special food (she's a bit spoiled.

I highly recommend John and will hopefully be able to utilise his services again.

Bryna really helped to correct both what he was doing that was bad, as well as helping to train me as a better owner on what to do, what not to do, and how to start to think like my dog. Her personalized touch and the ability to have a one-on-one with her gave me time to ask the questions I needed to help with the specific issues to my dog and I, not just be in a "classroom" setting and work on sit/stay/down. She was very patient with all of the questions I had, and was even more patient with my dog! Highly recommended and extremely helpful, even brought her dog over for a puppy play date to help train my little guy.

Our team of certified professional dog trainers work hard to create custom programs that fit every dog, and every budget; from private training lessons to boarding and training. Most of us lead pretty hectic lives, work long hours, have numerous commitments, and often don’t have extra time to devote to the hundreds of repetitions and 24/7 accountability that successful dog training requires. You would much rather be spending the time you do have exploring, having fun, making memories, or relaxing with your canine best friend! That’s where our Board and Train dog training services come in. Our trainers will create a unique training program to fit you and your dog's specific needs to achieve the training goals. All travel, treats, care, training, tools, and lifetime guarantee of communication with your assigned trainer is included in each of our programs. At the end of training, your trainer will return the dog back to you where they will not only teach you everything your dog has newly learned, but also how to continue with training in everyday aspects within your own home. Our motivation is to see you communicate, connect, and thrive with your dog!

Apologies in advance for kvetching but sometimes Gen Z employees make me want to scream. I am well…read moreaware that if I ask for a help in PetSmart, I will pretty much always either get help from a knowledgeable, customer service oriented, animal loving employee OR I will get nothing from an employee who is working hard at doing the minimum required to not get fired. By now you have likely guessed that today I got the latter. After closely searching the aisles for the item I needed, I rolled the dice and asked a cashier for help. Me : " where can I find a poop bag holder that..." Gen Z employee: *cuts me off mid sentence* " in the toy aisle." Me: " which toy aisle? there are more than one." Gen Z " the one over there" *gestures vaguely* Me: " I looked, so where exactly in the aisle is it?" Gen Z: *frustrated look* " OK I'll just show you." I follow Gen Z to location and she gestures to an area with I have searched already since there are similar items there. I ask her where exactly and she points to everything and says "all of these," clearly having zero clue what I was looking for since she stopped listening before hearing what I needed. I say I looked already and it's not here. Gen Z : "Then we don't have it" and walks away in a snit. She stole my snit! She wasted my time, gave me attitude and may as well have flipped me the bird to top it off. So I was irked. So, dear Yelpers, I came here to have my snit. Many thanks for indulging me. Now I'm over it. Have a lovely day.

I've been a loyal customer of PetSmart for four years, but my recent experience at the grooming…read moresalon was incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I arrived 8 minutes late for my dog's 9:45 AM grooming appointment. Upon entering, I found a line out the door and patiently waited my turn. Unfortunately, no one greeted me, and I felt completely ignored. A groomer, Hannah, glanced outside but didn't acknowledge the growing line. After waiting, I was told I was too late, even though I had been outside for 10 minutes. The groomer seemed stressed and said, "I can't do it. You're late," without offering any alternatives. She mentioned I should've called, but calling while waiting in line wouldn't have changed anything. Instead of offering solutions, I was told to cancel and reschedule. However, there were several options they could have taken to resolve the situation: Rather than turning me away immediately, they could have asked if I was willing to modify my dog's grooming experience to fit the time I arrived. A shorter grooming session, or adjusting the focus of the session, could have worked for both of us. If my assigned groomer wasn't available, they could have quickly reassigned me to another available groomer, which would have minimized the delay and ensured my dog was still taken care of. Alternatively, since PetSmart offers walk-in services, they could have added me to a later slot that day, even if it meant a slightly longer wait for my dog. This would have shown flexibility and a willingness to accommodate. I left the salon discouraged, only to realize I had another appointment in 15 minutes, making me 45 minutes late. I returned, explaining how inconvenient this was, but was met with no resolution--just a dismissive "Have a nice day." The lack of empathy, communication, and professionalism was appalling. A simple acknowledgment of my situation and a few alternative solutions could have turned this into a positive experience. Instead, I was left feeling completely dismissed. As a loyal customer, I expected much better treatment. This experience has left me questioning whether I'll continue using PetSmart for grooming moving forward.
