Aaron has been helping my family with Stella for a while now. First, when Stella was a young puppy…read moreAaron's dog pack walks were the only thing that would tire her out all day. It was such a key service during a time I was quite busy at work. Then I moved overseas & my mother had Stella for 1 year & without Aaron , I don't think my mom could've handled taking care of Stella. As a result of Aaron's services, it made the entire situation so much easier as Stella would be so tired at the end of the day. Thank you Aaron

Aaron has been walking our dog Turlock for a few years now. He was referred to us by a neighbor…read morewhose dog has been with Aaron for even longer. Aaron is the most reliable dog walker we've ever had, and he is so very good with all types of dog personalities. Our dog needs structure first, then his love and adoration is sealed. He has found his alpha in Aaron! He loves Aaron so much and looks forward to his pack walks with his buddies, eagerly sitting at the door in his harness waiting for Aaron to pick him up. He comes home happy and tired - which is perfect for a lab! We wholeheartedly recommend Aaron Uplinger at Dog About Town for your furry friend. Feel free to reach out if you have any specific questions - happy to talk all things Dog About Town.

No canned training instructions with Les. She is kind and easy to work with. She was immensely helpful in giving us insight's as to what may be going on with our pup as he had a tough1.5 years before we got him. We understand him better and can be more helpful to him when he gets agitated or barky. We ask him what can we do together to help him. It works. Call Les and dog squad. 5 stars.

(SLC, UT) After scheduling two different appointments with dog squad- both times being…read moreinconvenienced while having to reach out and further accommodate scheduling errors on Dog Squads end, I still wanted to move forward with their service. Both appointments at scheduled time I did not hear from them. One occasion waiting with my newly adopted dog in the cold outside their locked office- they apologized- but otherwise in no way made this right. It gets worse. When I questioned paying the full amount for the 4 week boarding option upfront (after 2 less than positive experiences impacting overall comfort level paying such a large amount without a little more going right!) Emily stopped communications and I feel I became collateral to their mistakes. I suppose I should have followed the initial red flags but it felt horrible she took me wanting a little more trust built by asking for an invoice that specified what the full amount ($2300 or so) provided. She just went dark. No response but she kept my $100 that I wouldn't have spent if I knew asking questions about payment would make her cut me off. I would highly recommend going elsewhere before spending a dime.

Stephanie, Dorian, and (previously) Jamila have been taking my darling Chase for off-leash hikes…read morefor about 2 years now and I couldn't be happier. When I was crate training Chase they were always so accommodating with all my special requests and were very flexible when I needed to take him to work and cancel his walks a few days in advance. Steph's IG feed @pupsofthebay gives me LIFE, so whatever photos I don't see in the report card I get my fix from her video feed. Responsible, very reliable, over-communicates and LOVES my blockhead pup, so I couldn't be happier. I'm moving out of state and can only hope my next walker is as great as these folks are.

When we were faced with the possibility of boarding our lab for over a week at one of the big…read morenearby facilities, I was determined to find a better alternative. I wanted somewhere she could feel cozy (not stuck in a kennel for most of the day!) and get plenty of loving attention and exercise. After a few lackluster interviews with sitters I found on our town's facebook group, I got a recommendation for the Natural dog. I was immediately drawn by their pictures of their pack on hikes in hills and appreciated the quick, thorough response I got to my inquiry. We scheduled a trial night to make sure our girl would be a good fit for an extended stay (we loved that they did this check) and I could tell right away from seeing Paul interact with her that she was going to be in good hands - he is definitely a bit of a dog whisperer. While we were away, we got daily photo updates of her living her best life, exploring the trails and snuggling on the couch. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. We've already booked two return visits :)

He communicates promptly when I have questions or for the rare schedule changes that come up during the year. I can see my dog's joy when he goes off on his adventure.

We are so lucky and grateful to have him in our pup's life!

We will never forgive Canine Boardwalk for the heartbreaking death of our beloved German Shepherd…read moremix, Sadie. We left Sadie under Jason's care on March 17, 2016. About 24 hours later, she was missing. After 4 days of frantic searching, the mobilization of many friends and family, and multiple pleas for assistance from Jason, our dear dog, Sadie, was found in the middle of I-80 by a stranger who thought her body might match the description on one of our fliers. Her body was flattened and mutilated beyond recognition from being run over by so many cars. Canine Boardwalk let her run collarless, without dog tags, and off-leash at Pt. Isabel. Under no circumstances would we have allowed Sadie to be let off leash at the Pt. Isabel dog park, which is full of foxtails (grass seeds that can be lethal to dogs), unfenced, and located near two major freeways. Only we could confirm Sadie's identity, and the experience of viewing her body will haunt us for the rest of our lives. We were not able to give her a proper burial or even remove her body from the highway. Now, I understand that people make mistakes. Dogs, even ones as docile and loving as Sadie was, are still animals and can be unpredictable around strangers. This is especially true of special-needs dogs like Sadie, who suffered from occasional seizures. Sadie's death, as gut-wrenching as it has been, could have been just a tragic experience. But it was more than tragic; this entire experience has been deeply traumatic because Jason and the staff of Canine Boardwalk handled the situation in the most callous, uncaring ways imaginable. From the moment they misrepresented themselves about who'd be walking Sadie and where they'd take her to their reluctance in helping us search for Sadie to the excruciatingly slow reimbursement process to get our money back for our missing dog expenses (we had to email them repeatedly for this), Canine Boardwalk made a tragic experience a deeply traumatic one. Because Canine Boardwalk avoided taking responsibility for their actions our pain has been magnified to agonizing levels. As you can see from the date of this post, Sadie's death was just a few months ago, and the way we lost her has made the mourning process unspeakably difficult. Without Canine Boardwalk's negligence and Jason's unprofessionalism, Sadie would be alive today. Their business practices are unsafe, and we believe the way they run their business endangers dogs. If Canine Boardwalk wants to stay in business, then they need to develop clear policies and procedures to ensure that tragedies like this do not happen again. We want to make sure that other dog owners do not experience the same kind of heartbreak and trauma that we did. Please think very, very carefully before you give them your business. There are other dog walking businesses run by compassionate, responsible people who would probably appreciate your support just as much as Canine Boardwalk would, and these other businesses would probably provide care with better professionalism and more respect. Please consider supporting them instead. After this experience, I wish I could give Canine Boardwalk a no star rating. Sadie, we love you so much and miss you every day, every hour. May you be romping happily with all the other dogs way out there over the rainbow bridge. RIP.

Ami is now working with us and with Jetson and we are very happy with the results. We are very glad we found Ami and we could not recommend her more as she is very personable, professional, and kind.
