We can't say enough good things about A Bark Idea. Frankie is a very shy dog, so finding a boarding…read moreplace where she feels comfortable has been difficult. At other places she comes home anxious and unsettled, but that has never happened here. The staff truly cares about the dogs, and the personalized updates they send are thoughtful and reassuring. We love that they keep the number of dogs small so the environment never feels chaotic or overwhelming. Every update shows Frankie looking relaxed and genuinely happy, and she always comes home healthy, calm, and in a great mood. It's completely worth it for the peace of mind when we travel. And the occasional complimentary surprise bath before pickup is such a nice bonus!

For the past 5 years, A Bark Idea has been such a special part of Summit's life--and mine. :) I've…read morebeen bringing my Golden Retriever there since the day I brought him home, and he has truly grown up with Cami and Kelsey and the Bark Idea Team. I honestly can't imagine those early years (or now) without them. What means the most to me is the complete trust I have in their care. Even when I've been traveling for work in other countries--literally on the other side of the world--I have never worried once. I always know Summit is safe, loved, and having the very best time. And he does have the best time--he still runs in with the same excitement as he did on day one. (I cried that first day when he was just a pup and it was my first time leaving him, but Cami hugged me and told me he was going to be just fine and most happy there - and those words are still true to this day!) It's truly his home away from home. He loves all of his fur friends (he made so many, and even I did too from A Bark Idea), lives for water time with the hose (those pictures are the best), or the time they brought in bubbles and Summit has never been more blown away, and I absolutely love the daily photos and updates that keep me connected no matter where I am. :) There is simply no place better in the South Bay (Hermosa), and now with their beautiful new location in Marina del Rey/Venice, it's even more convenient for us. :) I recommend them to everyone I know with a pup--and when you go, look for Summit on the walls... he's one of their photo models! :)

At the last minute I had to find a pet sitter and found Fancy Tails thru social media. After…read moretalking with Tracy I realized she is a true pet lover:) because my Bruno is a Service Dog I knew she would take good care of him, and he'd be safe and happy. After I spoke with Tracy I told my friend that I was going to the event with and he said "I know Tracy, she is highly recommended and has a stellar reputation with taking care of our furry friends. While I was at my event she sent lots of pictures while he was on his walk and hanging happy with his new puppy friends, it gave me peace of mind. She even offered to pet taxi him back to me when I returned home. 5 stars to Tracy & Fancy Tails

My dog is super picky who she chooses to like and be nice to, and Tracy took her in with open arms to help me out during my time of need. She's local which I love and had so many great reviews online. This is also her only and full time job which was also very important to me when searching for the right pet sitter. I used a Vet Tech once, but I preferred Tracy over the VT because she has all the time in the world to spend cuddling with Buttercup (and she has vet tech skills)! I will be using her again. Grateful to have found Fancy Tails.

He was gentle with my dog and listened to all my concerns. This experience exceeded my expectations and hope others will not hesitate to bring their pets to this location.

And some items that I was told on sale at adiscount price is actually not and was billed as regular price ..

Winston had his VERY first grooming experience here, and I couldn't be happier. I was looking for a…read moreplace that truly puts dogs first, and this groomer absolutely does. They operate on a 1-2 client per time window policy, so there are no dogs sitting in kennels, which made a huge difference for us. When I first called to ask about availability, the owner, Jacob, took the time to walk me through ways to help desensitize Winston before his appointment. That guidance made the entire experience so much smoother. When I arrived to pick Winston up, one of the employees was playing with him -- which instantly put me at ease and showed how much they genuinely care. I can't recommend this groomer enough. If you're looking for a place that truly prioritizes the comfort and well-being of their clients (the dogs!), this is it.
