We began taking our puppy to Dogs Abound in April after a Zoom consultation with Courtney. I was a…read morelittle taken aback by Courtney who seemed a big standoff-ish during the chat but decided to give the place a shot... after all, I cared more about finding trainers who treated my puppy well more than treating me well. After the first visit, employee Matt said he wasn't sure if they could board our puppy until they knew he would do well with other dogs (totally understandable) but when I mentioned I wanted to do training sessions, he and Courtney got nice quickly and signed me up for everything! I really wanted my 4-month-old puppy to get out of his shell, gain confidence and make friends so I ended up paying for a 10-pack of training sessions. I also read the Yelp reviews here so decided it would work. The training sessions included a Zoom chat with the trainer, Vivien, after four classes. When it was time for our first Zoom chat, the trainer wasn't able to connect to a computer so she called me, which was understandable (happens to all of us, right?) I asked her if she could send me videos (since we didn't get a Zoom chat) of the lessons she was teaching my puppy so I could reinforce it at home and she agreed. A few days past and I didn't get anything so I texted her. I immediately received an email from Courtney telling me not to communicate to her trainer directly. Um ok? I told her Vivien told me she would send me videos because we didn't get our Zoom chat and asked how she would address the problem. Vivien ends up sending me a very lengthy email instead. Another four training sessions pass and we get another Zoom session with Vivien, which was actually helpful! I finally learned what my puppy was learning this whole time! After our final two training sessions, we get an email stating they will now charge $3 per day to feed your dog! WHAT? As though spending hundreds of dollars for training and care isn't enough, they want to profit off feeding your dog and charge more than the food itself? I immediately notified Dogs Abound I wouldn't be returning with my pup. After I canceled, my husband told me that one time when he picked up our dog, he heard one of the employees say to a dog "you little sh*t." Yup, you read that right. An employee called a dog "YOU LITTLE SH*T") I'm all about giving people the benefit of the doubt and like I said, I'd rather have them treat my puppy well than me. However, these greedy folks obviously lack any basic customer service skills. The terrible communication and more importantly, how they treat their clients (fur and human), shows they don't care. I'm also thrown off by the Yelp reviews. Maybe the employees have some hidden biases? We just transitioned to Dogtopia and we are SO MUCH HAPPIER at the level of communication, professionalism and honest love they show the dogs --which can be viewed via Webcam. (I once asked Courtney if she could send me a photo of my puppy and she said no). I suppose this is my lesson in giving people the benefit of the doubt! Not everyone deserves it! UPDATE: My husband saw the dog picked up by the owner after the employee called him a "little sh*t," but nice effort by the owner for trying to defend the verbal abuse of dogs. Good to know she isn't ashamed of acknowledging that she herself may verbally abuse her dogs from time to time.

There are not enough words to recommend Liz and her team!…read more We looked at so many different doggy daycares and our fur baby never came out happy, just exhausted and we weren't sure about them and we found Dogs Abound and omg! Our pup gets waaaaay too excited even as we're driving up the street to drop off and he's always eager to get off the car and get to his puppy friends. It's a plus when Missy is there to welcome him! Missy is for sure one of his favorite people at Dogs Abound. Liz, Broke, Courtney and all of the Dogs Abound Team have been amazing with our pup and give this dog mum peace of mind that he's in great hands when I can't be with him. Every time I pick him up he's excited and happy and looks like he had a great day. Pic of my happy pup when I tell him we're going to see his FURiends

Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish! I would recommend to everyone who has social dogs who like to have fun and play with other dogs. Highlight: *All of their dogs are interacted with all day. The facility is at their home and they are always there. *All of their dogs sleep inside at night *Constant fun and play time with water on the hot days *They keep their yard, which is a good size, extremely clean *The inside of their home where dogs are allowed, is extremely clean *Great alternative to standard kennels where dogs are locked up the entire time they are borded *They went the extra mile in everything they did for me. My puppies were kept separate from the larger dogs, they included a suprise DVD with pictures and videos of my dogs from during their stay, and were extremely accomodating with drop off and pick up times! Overall, I will say that I was some what hesitant to board my dogs at someones home. I can say that it was the best decision I have ever made in terms of finding a boarding facility. My dogs had a great time, were worn out, and by the pictures and videos had an awesome time. I was also extremely happy that when I told them I had a 90lb, 1 year old German Shepherd, they did not say yes to boarding him right away. They wanted to meet him and complete a temperment test before they committed to taking him. This is great to me because i shows that they are selective with the dogs they take inorder to assure that it is a good enviroment with aggression free dogs. :)

She was warmly met by Izzy, a worker, Ainsley wanted to go with her and (not even a goodbye)she was anxious to meet the other dogs. This facility is super clean and has large outside canopy covered areas separated for small and large dogs to play at various times during the day. They even had 2 inflatable pools for the dogs to splash around in. Ainsley passed her evaluation successfully. She felt at ease with the loving staff. the facility and the dogs there for the day or longer stays. Dogtopia was a perfect solution to where I will leave my dog, with confidence, for an overnight next week.

PLEASE DO NOT BRING YOUR DOG HERE. I brought my dog to Dogtopia San Marcos and got him back with…read moreserious breathing problems and what appeared to be ammonia exposure. He required veterinary care, and the bill has now exceeded $5,000. I am extremely concerned about their screening and health protocols, especially after learning that they do not appear to adequately screen dogs for medical conditions before allowing them into the facility. I have also seen other reviews from owners describing their dogs becoming sick after being at this location. This has been an extremely stressful and expensive experience. I am currently considering pursuing legal action and am documenting everything related to my dog's condition and veterinary treatment. I strongly recommend that other dog owners do their research and seriously consider the potential risks before bringing their pets here.

Alec is an amazing pet professional!!! We have been using his services for 6 months now, and we are…read moreso thankful for his kindness, professionalism, and hard work he consistently puts forth. We have 3 very energetic , eccentric dogs, and they are " breed difficult". Alec has not only walked and worn these guys out on a regular basis, he has thrown his heart and soul into basic behavior training with our rebels. Our puppy gang consists of 2 miniature Daschunds and a rescue Basset Hound. These dogs are notoriously difficult to teach anything because they have deep rooted hunting skills that crush anything else- but Alec has them completely leash trained and has decreased the bigger hounds dog reactivity by 50%- even a dog trainer had given up on the big guy. He is also VERY communicative. After each walk I get a snap shot of the walking path and distance, atleast 3 videos of my dogs doing some very funny things, and photos that I can never get them to pose for. Alec also sends a full written report of their potty habits, their mood, and everything they did. My husband and I run a business, and I work 3 16 hour days. Thanks to Alec and his service, our dogs remain happy and healthy . He is very upfront and reasonable with pricing. He also as flexible as he can be with scheduling and has gone out of his way to accommodate us on a few last minute walks. We can't recommend him enough!
