    Took a road trip and stopped in to give our dog a break. Everyone was super friendly and were happy…read moreto see our pup. They let us hang out for a bit. Great place to grab a dog treat and chill for a minute

    My parents took their dog to this petco and you truly can't believe your eyes with this picture…read moreit's actually appalling. Coco is an elderly dog about 15 years old she's a toy poodle, her hair does knot pretty easily like normal toy poodle hair does. My parents had a appointment earlier in the month and they canceled on them twice and they rescheduled and brought her in today and this is how they left coco and refused to finish and traumatized her my dad went to pick her up and a little heavier set girl took a brush and brushed cocoa legs so hard she started crying to show my dad the knots !!! How is that anyway to treat an old elderly dog !!! They were not professional at all the groomer left she completely left that did this who comes into work and leaves a dog like this and runs out of the establishment? Petco what kinda people are you hiring ? This is the worst experience for anyone and this isn't even my dog and I'm writing the review for my older parents because I feel this establishment truly did a horrific customer service job I have ever seen in my life and I just wanna warn people to save your money and your poor dog from this place if they can leave little old coco like this and treat her like that in front of the owner imagine what they do behind close doors!!!! If I could leave a 0 stars I would, by the way they have been loyal customer for 5 years and they have had issues in the past with this place leaving scabs/cuts on her skin and 2 groomers have said they were brushing cocos on both sides and they made her cry and coco started nipping apparently which coco hasn't tried to bite anyone ever I have a autistic daughter and she has never even bite her so obviously they were treating her badly. Also anytime they dropped her off coco would shake profusely like she was scared. I truly hope they treat these dogs okay in here because that's just sad !

    When we adopted Zimmy, a 4-year-old Airedale, we expected an acclimation period and basic training…read morework. What we didn't appreciate was how much of a project Zimmy would become. As we soon discovered, she had endured some rough early years -- neglect, instability, life in a doggy daycare instead of a home -- and it showed. Explosive greetings, mouthiness, intolerance to downtime, and frenzied reactions to mailmen, dogs, cats, kids on bikes, Amish buggies, lawn ornaments, and on and on. She was impulsive, mischievous, and fiercely headstrong. Nevertheless we were smitten. "It's a good thing she's cute," we told ourselves, often. But we were in over our heads. After introductory discussions with Karen, we started in-home lessons in February ahead of a board and train program. Karen didn't just work with Zimmy, she worked with us, explaining the *reasoning* behind the techniques, and patiently fielding our questions between sessions. The yes/no marker system, impulse control work, "place" and "crate" commands, recall, emotional regulation -- the pieces started to click. Karen helped us understand what we were actually trying to accomplish. By the time Zimmy was Delaware bound with Karen in May, we were already seeing real, measurable progress. What happened over those next weeks was remarkable. Zimmy got to experience beach towns and boardwalks, picnics and festivals, pet stores and Lowe's, movie nights, a Golden Retriever convention, and a nose-to-nose greeting with a horse. Karen sent daily updates -- written recaps, photos, videos -- making it all feel close to home. We watched Zimmy learn to hold a "down" while shoppers walked past her, sit calmly while strangers greeted her, get a thorough breed-specific grooming, AND eventually coexist in glorious harmony with Karen's spunky feline assistant, Chippy. To his enormous credit, and to our astonishment, Chippy treated Zimmy with the patience of a saint and the authority of a lion. We award Chippy SIX stars. Midway through the stay, Zimmy seemed maybe a little off -- subtler signs than you'd normally flag, but Karen knew Zimmy's medical history and trusted her gut. She reached out, drove Zimmy several hours back to our local vet the next morning to get checked out, then stopped by for an impromptu in-home lesson. Zimmy was *her* dog for that month, and we saw that compassion, dedication, and proactivity firsthand. Zimmy returned home in June still very much the Zimmy we had grown to love, but with a new side that we noticed immediately -- calmer greetings, impulse control, fast post-distraction recovery, and leash manners. That day, we practiced walking Zimmy past our neighbor's dog lunging and barking at the fence, and Zimmy nailed what once seemed impossible. With her outsized presence, Zimmy continues to reintegrate into our home alongside her older brother Cooper, adapting her new mindset to familiar routines and stimuli. She's as energetic as she is clever, a classically stubborn Airedale, and we can envision the work we still have ahead of us. But as each day passes, there are small moments, moments that would seem trivial to anyone who hadn't witnessed Zimmy's old ways, where even without direction from us, she's making good, simple, levelheaded decisions. She's taking afternoon naps in her crate instead of perching in surveillance mode at our front window. She's pausing at open doors and looking to us instead of blindly barging through. When passersby can't help but approach to remark on her cuteness, she welcomes the attention with newfound poise. Karen established that foundation, and with her help navigating the transition home, we have the know-how and assurance to build on it. We're immensely grateful to have Karen as Zimmy's "trainer for life." One of the hardest parts of all this was seeing Zimmy on her homecoming day, nose to the living room window, watching with longing as Karen drove off. We look forward to Karen dropping by if she's in the area, and if we ever need more extensive training or boarding, we'll know right where to go.

    Karen is an outstanding dog trainer who listens to your dogs' individual needs and develops a…read moretraining plan for them. In addition to the training she gives your dogs, she also teaches you how to hold them accountable and continue the structure that they have been taught once your sessions have been completed. She helped me with my 2 large Great Danes when I was at my wits' end with them and I can't thank her enough!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Training with Karen!!!
