    Leeloo after traveling from US to Spain.

    I needed to move my 20 lb mixed breed dog from the San Francisco Bay Area to Spain. Initially, I was going to try to do it on my own but quickly realized that just finding an airline that would transport her was going to be difficult. I reached out to several relocation companies and settled on Pet Express. Throughout the entire process, Pet Express was extremely responsive. Whenever I had a question or concern, Jane was able to answer it quickly. Mason completed all of the paperwork which made my vet's job much easier and insured there would be no issues with the USDA. Finally, they worked with BaggagePets in Spain to get her through customs. Overall, a very pleasant experience. Thank you, Pet Express for getting Leeloo to her new home.

    Shipped our cat from San Francisco to Edinburgh. We just wanted to express our most sincere gratitude to Alexandra and the Pet Express/Extraordinair (Edinburgh partner) team for seeing us and Otis safely through the relocation process. Not the least of which, I personally am grateful for your unending patience in answering our endless questions and concerns with efficient and thoughtful grace. The pickup process was so smooth. He is already enjoying his forever home. For potential clients: 1. Ensure you get microchip before rabies shot 2. Get 1 year rabies shot after microchip 3. They cannot travel until 21 days after rabies 4. If Pet lands within 5 days of owner landing get Health Certificate from your USDA veterinarian to save $ 5. Obtain walk in endorsement by USDA yourself to save $ 6. Ensure you fill out Border Inspection Post properly to determine if you can avoid VAT (UK) Nothing about this process is easy. Pet Express worked great with us and we did all of our own research to ensure we did everything we could for a smooth process.

    I have zero complaints about the service. I had my two cats moved from Berkeley to England and when I saw them, they were surprisingly relaxed. I expected angry cats covered in pee, but they were very calm and were happy to nuzzle. I'd definitely recommend their services!

    My beautiful willow just before she died

    The photos are very upsetting for most people so be warned. Let me start by telling you that two months ago I had two beautiful, healthy dogs and now I have none. We relocated back to the UK from the USA two months ago and the whole experience was hell on Earth. What they don't tell you is that they contract out to other companies. When I asked for pictures of my dogs where they were staying for the 3 days required it was shock and horror. It was disgusting and then you find out you are more dealing with multiple companies. When our dogs arrived in Amsterdam (due to Brexit) we then got a call to say one of our dogs wasn't 'very well' and was taken to the vets. Two hours later she had died. She had just turned 1. We still do not have her ashes back. We're finally managed to get our other dog home to us who wash soo traumatized by the whole ordeal attacked my dads dog. He was 7 years old and never ever done anything like that before and is now in a rehab facility after me begging not to euthanize him. There were our life. Our beautiful babies. We still have no answers or explanations or even my baby girls ashes. I will not stop until I get justice's and make others aware.

    Took advantage of their Spring Break special, which included a bath, to board my pup for a week…read more(Sat-Sat). It had been almost a year since we last boarded but Ethan helped us get acclimated to the new policies and was super accommodating, even working with me on pick-up when my return flight was delayed. A true life-saver. All the staff are always kind and helpful and they really love on the animals, which I appreciate. They also regularly update with photos and emails to keep you in the loop which is very reassuring. Loki loves it there and is always wiped out when she returns. (She's been napping all day. Very clearly a happy girl ).

    A little long but it's been nothing less than eventful with this place. I had hight hopes for this…read moreplace as the hours are so convenient for our family's busy schedules. Unfortunately, this place was a HUGE disappointment and had a huge negative impact on our pup. Long story short -- Everything here is a sales grab. The few girls care for the animals but the "managers" and men there are just there for the commission of your packages. I had a whole conversation about their unethical sales pitching with the employee while picking up my dog lol. It's "how they keep the place open" - the employee's words, not mine. Astounding. Said employee also asked what I did for a living because I questioned their sales pitch tactics -- I'm in sales. Also, If you need their VIP services for your unspayed or neutered pup, please spend your money elsewhere!! Before committing to a membership, we did a trial day and spent hundreds on drop in days, grooming, and overnight boarding to see if it was a good fit for our high energy pup. Our dog is not neutered and we don't plan on getting him neutered so we chose their VIP rooms. His breed is also extremely high energy and they promised they could accommodate. I also inquired about training multiple times and they kept saying the trainer would contact me. Everything went great after those few visits, they seemed caring and said he was a great fit for a membership so we end up signing up. Then everything went downhill. Upon the first day of the membership, our dog all of a sudden had behavior issues and needed to be picked up. In the middle of my work day I call the shift manager, and he states that if we want our dog to stay, he needs training ... (from their same trainer that I've inquired 3x about before committing to a membership, still haven't heard back). I asked why this wasn't communicated ever before committing to a membership and they didn't have an answer. I informed them that I would've paid for training before committing to a membership if they would've let me know that there were any issues. Our dog went a couple of more times until they could finally get me in touch with the trainer, 6 visits later. Actually I had lost complete trust at this facility. To add insult to injury, I was able to speak to one of their actual workers that is with the dogs and she let me know that our dog is only let out for about 10 minutes at a time, maybe 3 to 4 times a day during a 12 hour stay. This is their VIP option. So not only is he left in a room for about 12 hours a day, with dogs barking all around him, he's not being stimulated nor played with just being let out to go to the bathroom. Contradicting everything they say that they offer. Their "trainer" is also a joke. He is supposed to be from the Marines and well-versed in the breed of dog that we have. Upon washing him for 5 minutes, as I was told, he said that our dog needed to be neutered before he could be trained because of his energy. Our dog is a Malinois and is not supposed to be neutered before 2 years of age. We've since went elsewhere to get our dog trained from someone who is actually educated on his breed and he's worked on all of his anxiety and reactivity issues that our pup got because of this place.

Probably should've been concerned about the other dog growling. Apparently growling = okay. Being excited meeting new dogs in a new place = unfit temperament for this business.

Let's be real, she's a young dog in a brand new environment surrounded by unfamiliar dogs. Of course she's going to be excited. That's exactly why people come in for these evaluations in the first place. If your facility isn't equipped to handle high energy or young dogs, that should be clearly stated upfront on your website. Instead, I paid $40 for what felt like a pre judged, rushed dismissal with zero effort to actually assess or work with her to get comfortable. What was more disappointing was the lack of care or professionalism. No one asked about her behavior history - other than does she not play well with dogs, supervisor didn't use her name, and she was immediately taken to the back with a slip lead and returned minutes later with a blanket judgment. There was no constructive feedback, no suggestions for training, and no guidance on how we could improve and come back. For context, she regularly goes to dog parks and plays off leash without any issues. Overall, the experience felt unwelcoming and transactional rather than thoughtful or supportive. Just a heads up for other dog owners, you may not get a fair evaluation or any refund if your dog doesn't fit their expectations. Which should be free, then if they pass you pay.
