After being away for a week, we came home to happy, well cared for pets. It's reassuring to know that in the future, when we go out of town, we have someone we can trust to care for our animals and keep them safe and happy. I highly recommend her for your pet care needs.

She takes the time to get to know them, introduce herself to them, and make them comfortable with her. She's so considerate and sends photos which is so comforting. She's been my pup caregiver for years now. The babies get excited when they see her and aren't as stressed out because mommies are leaving. If you are looking for a great animal care giver who actually cares she's your girl! I recommend her 100%

Elisha and the entire team are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. You can genuinely tell how much they care about the dogs and make sure they have a great experience. Every time we arrive, Stella runs straight to the back with her tail wagging because she is so stoked to play. Seriously gives me such peace of mind knowing she's happy and well cared for here. Highly recommend!!

RiO was in Amanda's professional care today, and provided an exceptional experience and grooming service for my best friend's 4th birthday treat! Complimented with a HaPpY B-DaY bandana! The management made it right by providing a previous credit given for my satisfaction, and it was applied to my bill. Paw Commons is #1!!! Sent with thanks for taking care of Rio and providing a great 'spa treatment'! Amanda, BTW, he smells amazing!

I can't recommend Cara enough! From the very first session, it was clear that she truly understand…read moredogs and their behavior. Cara took the time to assess my puppy's individual needs and developed a training plan with the goal of forming a strong relationship with my dalmatian, Ruth. Cara was incredibly patient, calm, and encouraging. Check out her YouTube videos to get Cara's vibe for traning and see if her apporach works for you. Unfortunately, due to personal circumstances, we were not able to complete our eight-week training plan, but Cara was completely understanding and refunded me for the remaining sessions. I was beyond grateful that she was so understanding of situation. Cara has a genuine love for animals, and it shows in every interaction. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, kind, and results-driven dog trainer, look no further. I'm so grateful for the transformation in my dog's behavior (even in the short time we spent training together) and I would recommend Cara for anyone struggling to train their dog basic obedience, or develop a relationship with their new puppy, and much more!

Freddy the Frenchy's Home Away from Home (aka Doggy Hotel Deluxe)…read more If you're looking for a place that treats your four-legged gremlin like royalty *and* has the patience of a saint, look no further. I've been boarding my dog Freddy (aka King of Stubbornville, Mayor of Sass Town, and producer of premium airbiscuits) at this magical canine resort during my vacations--and let me just say: they deserve medals. Big shiny ones. Possibly even keys to the city. Freddy is a 10-year-old French Bulldog with the attitude of a teenager who missed brunch and the digestive system of a whoopee cushion. He's adorable, yes, but also the kind of dog who looks you straight in the eye as he does the exact opposite of what you just asked. And yet... the team here has *nailed* caring for him. Destiny, Ashley, and Austin W. are basically Freddy's personal entourage now. They don't just tolerate his stubborn sass--they *understand* it. Austin even has a Frenchy himself, which means he gets the breed's trademark combo of clown energy, drama queen vibes, and... well, gas. Lots of gas. It's like Freddy found his spirit human. Whether it's overnight stays or their awesome day play sessions, I know Freddy is in great hands. He comes back exhausted (the good kind), happy, and only slightly annoyed that he's no longer the center of the universe once he's home again. Bottom line: if your pup is a diva, a weirdo, or just a loveable fart machine like Freddy, this place will treat them like family--with extra treats and zero judgment. 10/10 would board again. Freddy gives it two snorts and a side-eye of approval.

She gave us daily updates on our dogs accompanied with pictures to let us know how everything was going.

I would not hesitate to recommend Jan and hope that she is able to stay with our dogs whenever we are out of town in the future. Wonderful experience!

I'd like give 5 stars to sitters (Misty and Kimberly and Scott) for their great service and taking…read morecare of our cats when we needed them. Specifically, Misty was wonderful and we were super happy with her service. Her reports were very detailed and I can tell that our cats were happy hanging out with Misty too. However, this review is more on Scott who runs the business. I've asked Scott's pet service company three times. And for two out of three I had negative experience with the way Scott behaved or talked to me. I'd give 1 star to Scott's behavior, due to a disappointing experience that I had interacting with him. Scott's negative attitude and lack of respect made me uncomfortable. The way he talks is as if he is the guardian of all the cats in the world and he knows more about our cats than we do Scott gave me the impression that he tries to bust me, or initimidate and undermine me. A good sitter should respect the owner's wishes and follow their routines that they have established through years of living and loving their cats. But what I saw from Scott was completely opposite. He kept interfering with our routines and trying to undermine our decisions. The way he behaves is as if we have to report to him for the decisions and routines that we have for our cats with whom we've had the pleasure of living for over 3 years. This is not acceptable. He should more mindful of the way he interacts & talks with people and respect their privacy and routines.

We trained both at home/outdoors and at a local park. He was so patient with Beckham, as well as with us. His directions were clear and direct. He was always available even on the phone when we would video tape Beckham on his training, always there to give us great feedback. I also enjoyed the fact that he got all the family members involved (my two kids that are 13 and 21). Jonathan was very flexible and worked with our schedule. We would highly recommend him to anybody that needs help with training.
