I'd like to put in a review for Leading the Pack. I have two older schnauzers who were in real need…read moreof a grooming. Normally I do it myself but I was in the middle of moving. They were matted and the groomer, Alma, assess them ahead and let me know that they were going to have to be quite short. What I didn't know was that Alma assess their skin and gave them exceptional care with her understanding of dry skin. When I pick them up their coat was soft and I could tell that a lot of their skin issues were no longer causing them problems. She had taken great care to give them what she called a mud bath which helped their dry, itchy skin. I highly recommend giving this grooming Business a try. They are hard-working and they do know what they're doing.

Great initial visit. Was able to ask questions to ensure my guy stays healthy for a long time. Very…read morecaring and adaptive to the animal (my pup has a lot of energy) ensuring the animal is comfortable and well treated. I wish my doctor's office exhibited the level of care they provided. Front desk could be better. In my multiple experiences with them, it's felt more like checking boxes than providing customer service (over phone and in office). Won't get into the nitty gritty (because all other staff was great) but I was able to notice differential service between me and other owners. Everyone should be treated with equal respect and care, would not want this to be mistaken as bias. My pup had such a good time, I dont think he will associate the vet with something to be scared of. Considering my pups story, this speaks volumes of the dedicated staff and the environment they cultivated

Our recent VCA in Albany closed and moved our records to this location. We've been here twice and…read moreboth times the staff and doctors were very friendly and open to any questions we had. Also, the crew was very friendly to our dogs and made them feel more relaxed. They are busy, so sometimes appointments are pretty far out. If they give you the option, they can place you on a waiting list and if anyone cancels you get a text for that available appointment. Compared to our original VCA, they have extended hours which is very helpful. Thank you all for your friendliness and compassion!

Cat is AMAZING!!!!!!! One of the most thoughtful and skilled pros I have come across period (and I…read moream fellow Dog Walker/Sitter Pro). She is so pure of heart and so authentic and honest and trustworthy. She also has soooo much talent when it comes to managing Big Big Doggos with hearts of Gold. I am grateful to have her in my network of dog pro friends. Her quality of service is absolutely unmatched. She has so much patience----she even goes thru an intricate multiple step greeting/pick up process with each dog to slow them down and work on their over stimulation/joy at pick up etc. I am tickled to observe her flourish and grow with every passing year. If you are lucky enough to call Cat/RedWood Trails your dog walker you are in Great hands.

I do not recommend this woman. She used human toenail clippers (!!) instead of pet nail clippers…read more She did not listen to me when I asked her to stop what she was doing when my cat was visibly distressed. We were willing to pay someone to trim our cats' nails so that a "professional" could do it, but she ordered me to scruff and hold the cats, defeating the purpose of paying someone else. Finally, she lifted our adult cats by the scruff of the neck, which should never be done! Adult cats' bodies are too heavy for this - it can be painful/harmful. We will pay more to take the cats to the vet for nail trims going forward, so that they treated safely and efficiently.

Right when we walked in, the little store front felt very spacious and cozy. I looked to the back, I noticed there was a lot of space for the dogs.

My precious muppet baby was SUCH a timid Quarantine pup before starting her pack walks with Red…read moreRover. She jumped at cars, she jumped at trucks, she would never engage assertively with any dog bigger than her, and cars weren't her jam. Well! No longer. Every time we go outside she jumps into the copilot seat ready to take on an adventure. Yesterday she approached a large German Shepherd at the dog park without any trepidation and appropriately picked up on social cues with the Shepherd's twin titan came over to check the scene out as well. She walks much better (definitely not perfect!) on leash than before which helps my anxiety and her safety. Overall l, Red Rover has been an important and necessary investment in her socialization in these pandemic bubble times. Cant say enough positive things about Del the walker and Jeremy. Thanks!!

I have been Yoko's client for more than 4 years, initially at her Berkeley location and now in…read moreOakland, so this review is long overdue. She has the most intuitive and healing touch and is my favorite massage therapist. Yoko clearly takes the time to listen to my requests, but the best part is she's is able to discern what I need without me having to tell her. Sometimes I have no idea how much work I need until she's already on it. As a fitness instructor, my job can be hard on my body, so maintenance is key. After Yoko's massages, I not only feel blissfully relaxed but I also know that she has worked out kinks in my muscles to achieve better alignment and overall body function. During both of my pregnancies, Yoko routinely gave me prenatal massages. I have been to prenatal massages by other practitioners that were acceptable/passable. However, Yoko applied the perfect amount of pressure in the exact right spots to make me melt. I saw her every 2-4 weeks at points during my pregnancies but wish I had boundless financial resources to see her even more frequently. Now that my second child is a few months old, I continue to rely on and put all of my trust in Yoko to help relieve intense muscle tension that I'm sure all mothers of little ones experience. Scheduling appointments with Yoko is quick and easy. I always receive an email reminder, which saves directly into my Gmail calendar. That's a plus! Her Oakland studio is warm and inviting, to match her personality. Yoko is an absolute gem!
