We first enrolled about a year ago and Michael and Martha did an intake evaluation to make sure Pippa would fit in. After that Pippa was enrolled in their daycare 2x a week. One fabulous thing about Wiggling Tails is that they do pick up and drop offs in the city! Michael, Martha, and team are excellent communicators and are willing to be flexible. I LOVE all the fun photo shoots they do. They are so creative and go above and beyond. I'm including in my post the Valentine's Day and Mother's Day photo shoots which they framed for me . In addition to the photo shoots they will take action shots and videos of your pup during the day. I have always felt safe sending Pippa to Wiggling Tails. Pippa is always so excited when she sees the Wiggling Tails van and will literally leap into the crate in the back (and she hates crates)! I love Wiggling Tails and highly highly recommend them. It's been the best decision I've made for Pippa. Thank you Martha, Michael, and team for all you do for Pippa!

Wiggling Tails is literally the only dog care establishment I trust with my pup. With Martha,…read moreMichael, and their close-knit crew, I can trust that my Lizou (2 year old 13 lb YorkiePoodle) is not only well taken care of, but treated like family/like their own. Not only do I trust and love Wiggling Tails for my dog's weekly daycare (and periodically overnight boarding), but Lizou LOVES them too... He knows that when he goes to Daycare, he's in for a day of fun with some doggos AND some humans. Getting Lizou integrated into the Wiggling Tails schedule at a young age (~6months) was the BEST decision we ever made -- for me, and for Lizou (for structure, for dog friendliness, etc.). I actively recommend my friends' pups to consider them too! Now, Lizou even has dog friends that he has known from "the outside" within the Daycare schedule! Also.. the pickup/drop off schedule is one of a kind in the bay area, and SO convenient to work around work schedules! One additional note to add to my review of their high quality, loving, clean, and SAFE care of dogs, is that you never know what special gems the staff and owners will surprise and delight you with... whether it's neat swag, special holiday-themed photo-ops, or action videos from daily play... Wiggling Tails provides the utmost care AND some really adorable and thoughtful added bonuses.

I left my dog Toby with Marcella for 20 days, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience…read more Her home is so cozy and welcoming--Toby settled in and even made friends with her pups (and a few new playmates too!). He was always out and about, whether at the park or the beach, and I loved getting daily photo and video updates that kept me reassured and happy. Before the long stay, I actually brought Toby to her once a week for three weeks so he could get comfortable, and it made all the difference. I could truly see how well he was cared for--he came home happy, healthy, and loved Marcella is warm, trustworthy, and someone I highly recommend. I'll definitely be reaching out to her again for Toby's future stays. Thanks Marcella & Pups

Every time Sue comes to pick up our puppy, Luna is over the moon with excitement to go for a walk. She comes back tired and happy and sleeps for the rest of the day. A tired dog is a good dog! :) We have also used Active Care for boarding. It's really a gift to know Luna will be in good hands while we're away and not need to worry. Luna loves hanging out with Sue's dogs and playing in her backyard. Sue often will send us a text or a short video of Luna playing, which is so nice to receive when we miss our sweet girl. Sue is wonderful with animals, professional, responds promptly to texts and has always been available when we needed her. We couldn't be happier! Thanks so much, Sue!

When I first moved to her area, a neighbor recommended Dani to me, and I was a little nervous - pickups at my house without me there? No in-person visits to the farm? I was just supposed to trust this stranger with everything? Heck I have probably spent maybe 15 minutes max seeing Dani in person over the years (bc her team usually does our pickup) and yet I now trust her like family bc I have seen her put my dog - and all his unique quirks and personality - first, time and time again. - Pre-COVID it was amazing to find someone who could do pickups and dropoffs - I, like most people, can't guarantee a drop off on my way to work or even a specific pickup before 5pm, which made arrangements with typical daycares impossible. Knowing that my dog would be home and comfortable was amazing. - My dog - didn't like strangers before, was scared of the first team member to come pick him up - no worries, Dani moved the schedule around to make sure someone he was comfortable with was picking him up, even coming personally for some periods of time! Her team of dog lovers are also awesome - you can tell they're happy to see your dog too! - Neighbor moved, we were no longer super convenient for her route, she could have reasonably dropped us or raised our rates, but she stuck with us, going out of her way every day and never increasing our rates by a dime. In fact, she rescheduled our pickups around days that another dog whom Dani recognized as my dog's "best friend" could attend. - COVID hit, and for several reasons, we had to greatly reduce how often we could send my pup. Dani was there for us, accommodating around our life changes, payment timelines, scheduling needs, all completely outside her policies. It was obvious she made it personal at this point. It was all just her supporting my dog as his personal guardian angel. As we start returning to offices, I'm struggling to imagine going back to commuting without Dani. We are about to move, and Dani's service area was actually one of the top 5 considerations in our housing search. When we were unable to make that happen this time, Dani graciously offered to help us find a new option. She's in our corner and all about our dog's safety through and through. I can't recommend her enough. If your dog can join Heeling Star, you have to do it!

She also is quite a talented photographer! She sent us pictures of the kittens while we were gone and she got the best picture I've ever seen of one of them-- he isn't usually very photogenic but she somehow got a nice portrait of him. They both were indoor/outdoor cats but they had to stay in for the week. I was worried that they'd get cabin fever, but when we got back they seemed very settled and comfortable being inside. This was a huge relief as they'll have to be indoors for the next year. Next time we travel, we'll call Annie.

Our older kitty, Jax, is 17 years old and requires insulin injections twice a day. Two weeks before we left we added a new kitty, 6-months-old Lefty, to our household. We needed someone who could come to our house, as Jax has a hard time adapting to new places and Lefty had just arrived. We needed someone who could give Jax the injections and wanted someone who could keep an eye on the developing relationship between Jax and Lefty. Annie was able to give Jax his injections, but just as importantly Annie and Renee seemed to immediately establish rapport with both cats, over the course of a meeting prior to our departure. We knew that Annie & Co. would be able to create the kind of stable environment that would reassure both cats. While traveling, we received regular updates from Annie and Renee and when we returned both cats were in excellent health and were showing much more trust and affinity for each other. We highly, highly recommend this business for their wonderful ways with animals and for their total commitment to excellence. Thank you, Pacifica Paws Petcare!

It also helps that he has become best friends with one of her recent foster fails I love that they only take small (or very calm larger dogs), allow them to cuddle in bed and most importantly only use positive reinforcement. I always trust that he is being treated as if he was one of their own. Could not recommend Lynda or her services enough. We feel so lucky to have found her!
