She is…read moreincredibly kind, thoughtful, and responsive, but she is also deeply professional and reliable, which is such a rare and valuable combination when it comes to pet care. Our lab adores his walks, adventures, and overnights with her, and we always have complete peace of mind knowing he's in such capable hands. Madi communicates clearly, handles everything with care, and charges fair rates. She's a total gem, and we're so grateful to have found her!

If your dog could write a review, they'd give Donner Dogs six paws up!…read more Madi at Donner Dogs in Truckee is basically a dog whisperer, adventure guide, and cuddle expert all in one. She treats every pup like her own, which is saying something, because my dog is literally soooo spoiled. Whether it's dog walking or boarding, she goes above and beyond to make sure your furry friend is happy, safe, and having the best time ever. Need someone to take your dog on an epic Tahoe adventure? Madi's got it covered. Want to make sure your pup gets more attention than you do at home? Also covered. Honestly, I'm pretty sure some dogs leave her care wondering if they can trade humans. If you want your dog to have the best time while you're away (or just too busy to give them the adventure they deserve), Donner Dogs is the place. Just be warned--your pup might come home looking at you like, "So, when do I get to go back?"

Got Dogs was referred by my usual pet sitter that did not have the availability this time to house…read moresit. I went through the reservation system Dena has, which is convenient but intentionally left the additional information about the house sitting blank because I didn't really know the exact information she needed. I anticipated the follow up because I would be a new client and subsequent meet n greets with our pup would be what I thought were apart of the process. Well, she emails me that I didn't complete the additional information and to give her a call. I had a gap in my schedule to call... so I called and her tone is not friendly, she does not answer on behalf of the business so I awkwardly share that I am following up on her email to discuss my service but because I need this done in March she tells me it's faraway so she will call me tomorrow....I'm perplexed with why you would have me call you to just tell me that you'll discuss tomorrow...she reluctantly says OK we can talk about it now. And another comment about how she didn't think I would call so soon. I am not feeling the interaction and let her know to disregard my request because I don't want to proceed with her...and what do you know...she hangs up on me. Minutes later I receive a text that she was on another call and didn't mean to upset me. Uhm, ok? So why answer my call...and just hanging up on me, why not share that you have a call on another line?? Super unprofessional.

I thank them for putting me at ease during our visit.

We loved this place! We brought our 9 year old Siberian Husky Misha here for a day of pet sitting…read morewhile we went skiing at Heavenly. The area that we saw was made up of two large rooms with couches and many medium and large dogs milling about. When we initially brought Misha they moved some of the dogs to another room so she would not be overwhelmed. We watched from windows in the office as she acclimated quickly and found a spot on one of the couches and eventually other dogs joined. It was just like being at the dog park and she seemed to do just fine. We will absolutely bring Misha here on our next trip! Everything was so easy, they make the process quick. We did not even have an appointment, we just called in about 15min before arriving. They asked us to email her vaccination records which we did on the spot. Thank you for taking great care of our baby! So happy with the service.

But the best part of Samantha was her ability to train our unconventional dog. For example, he still doesn't respond to words, but Samantha taught him to keep focus on her (and when he's with me ... me) and even when off having fun, he's checking in and responding to me. We just did a vacation at the beach and allowed him to be off leash in a manner I never imagined. Samantha speaks dog and has been the best decision I made to ensure we have a happy, healthy, well-behaved member of our family.

I'd really avoid working with this kennel and Victoria. She has a lot of experience, and seems to…read moretake good care of the dogs. On an interpersonal level, she is an absolute nightmare to work with. When we dropped our 14 week-old puppy off with her for the first time, we had a miscommunication where she said she was going to take him inside, and then talk to us. She had meant over text, and then came out to yell at us to leave (I think she wanted clean separation when dropping him off for the first time). She then sent us angry texts for the next half hour (see screenshots). We decided we didn't want to work with her, NOT because we had concerns about the care our dog would receive, but because she was so abrasive. That was 200% confirmed when we went to pick him up. She first yelled at me about being paid before she'd release my dog, which I was fine with. I understand that we had booked a slot even though it had only been an hour (why yell though). She had put a special collar on him, and while she was struggling to get it off my dog was screaming in pain the entire time. During this whole process she called me a "dumb fuck" and an idiot multiple times. I was concerned about my dogs safety and only called her "mam" (well..I lost my temper once we finally got him back). There aren't many dog sitters in Tahoe, and my wife and I were very polite to Victoria through the entire process. She was abrasive throughout, which we chalked up to poor communication. After this experience though, I could never recommend her. She seems to take good care of the dogs, but has a few screws loose. I'd avoid this kennel unless you want to be treated this way.

I used Victoria to train my 9 month old pup who didn't listen to me at all (and was honestly kind…read moreof a nightmare). Victoria was a lifesaver! My dog is so well behaved now, she's a changed dog for the better. Initially I was nervous about dropping off my dog to a stranger but quickly learned that my pup LOVED going to Victoria's and she obviously treats all the pups like they're her own. Since training my dog I now drop her off when I'm out skiing or know it's going to be a long day and she always gives my dog a little refresher on her skills she learned with her previously and my dog is always guaranteed to come home exhausted from playing and learning. Couldn't recommend her more. Life is SO MUCH EASIER with a well trained dog!
