I had always worked from home and had lots of time to for walks and a Jack Russell's entertainment needs, but started school full time at UC Berkeley and needed someone to help care for her. Using Denise's Pet Care was one of the best decisions I ever made. Fergie loved getting picked up to see her "dog friends" and go for a walk in the hills. They were incredibly responsible, reliable and detail oriented. I felt totally at ease having them care for her and they actually helped me be a better dog mother with their expertise. A benefit I had not considered was that with an aging dog, exercise and socialization is incredibly important. Fergie lived to be 17 and was in excellent health, until her last few months, and even then she loved a walk. My neighbor's now use Denise's Pet care for their dog, who was adopted from Korea and love them! It's great to see another dog getting the special care my little Fergie received.

I HIGHLY recommend Denise's Pet Care! They are so wonderful with the dogs. My pups go nuts every…read moretime they see our walker. They are always so tired by the time they come back and sleep the rest of the day, which is so nice considering I have two young and energetic dogs. I feel super confident in them and trust them completely. If you're looking for an excellent and caring dog walking service, don't hesitate to contact them!

She seemed quite nice, but if you have a young puppy look elsewhere…read more The tldr; had some issues in the beginning with her not checking that he went potty at the end of the walk and a dog who was in the walk with my puppy bit him leaving several deep bite marks on his muzzle! I tried Brooke's dogwalking for the week. I have a 5 month old border collie puppy. I thought after meeting Brooke it might be a good fit. But about the second day we began to have problems. She didn't ensure my puppy went potty at the end of the walk causing him to bark and whine for hours disturbing the neighbors. I was confused as to what caused his distress when I got a call from my landlord. I came home seeing he had a huge mess of poop in his crate. And he's never had an accident before with other dog walkers. I let her know, and she was responsive. She ensured in the latter half of the week that he did go potty during the walks and I didn't have that same issue. But the worst issue by far was the dog bite my puppy suffered from another dog on the walk. The last day of the week, a dog Brooke was also walking bit my puppy. I was told that the other owner was sorry for the incident, but no amount of sorry can really alleviate the bite marks my puppy came home with! I asked if the other dog would still be allowed to go on walks with my puppy (yes) or if anything would be done to ensure it wouldn't happen again (a muzzle for instance). The answer was no. I decided not to continue to use Brooke's services. It was not a good experience. She was kind and professional overall, but that doesn't make up for the issues we experienced during our time with her. I cannot recommend her in any circumstances.

I've also had to switch schedules a few times and Heather was very flexible. Her rates are reasonable and she is both insured and bonded. You can rely on Heather to take good care of your pooch!

I had a 3 month old pup, Juliana and Cynthia are so relaxed and make you feel so reassured they will love my pup. They have been wonderful!!!! She has been reliable, checks-in, sends me adorable pics and funny text about how my pup is doing. Works wonderful with my work schedule because they have a small dog group later afternoon time. So when I get home my pup is TIRED. All she needs is a small walk and she is ready for bedtime. I've noticed her skills improve, which I appreciate because training can be hard to fit in at times. I tried another service for a short period and was quick to count the days Juliana was back because I could tell my pup missed her so much. 8/9/17 My pup has turned 1 y.o. And wow, i have no clue what i would do with out these women. When Hazel was a puppy, Juliana would come provide potty breaks and be attentive to her while she learned to be home alone. Hazel has progressed and developed into such a independent, confident dog. She climbs, runs, does great off least. She isn't scared of any sized dog, greets comfortably. All thanks to these ladies. And hazel loves them so much. you can tell she misses them when she doesn't have her walk. I love the communication I have with Juliana and Cynthia. From mom questions, to scheduling, to checking on hazel during walks. Just wonderful. I highly recommend them and feel so lucky my baby has such an awesome pack.

I would give 10 stars if I could. My husband and I feel like we hit the dog-walker jackpot…read more We were really looking for a one or two person dog walking operation that would really care for Lois, that we could trust, and that would give her the exercise she needs. But we got SO MUCH MORE. After being rejected by a dog walker who felt Lois, our 11lb Shih Tzu, was too shy and fearful, we were referred to Juliana and Cynthia. Juliana and Cynthia didn't see Lois's shyness as a problem. They knew she'd open up. And boy did she ever. She now LOVES to play with other dogs. Not only does Lois get to play with her pack mates for most of the week, on Fridays she goes on hikes with the big dogs, which she also LOVES. While I love that they have a little dog group (especially in the beginning when I was more worried about her), I also love that she can hang with the big guys and get more comfortable with them in a safe environment. We've also left Lois with them in May for boarding. I usually worry a lot about Lois when we go out of town, I worry she doesn't get enough attention, or enough exercise, etc. But when we left her with Juliana and Cynthia, I wasn't worried at all. I got daily pictures showing how much fun she was having. And I knew she was getting tons of exercise and love. It's worth every penny and I will likely leave her with them from now on (vs. my neighbors who watch her for free, just because she gets better care and attention with Juliana and Cynthia). I also love that Lois gets walked by the same two people every time. And with generally the same pack. It creates consistency and makes my pup that much more comfortable. I've had friends who have told me that when they're home their dog doesn't want to go out with the walker. Not with Juliana and Cynthia. Even if both my husband and I are home, she runs to the door, shakes her bum-bum, and essentially peaces out without looking back. The most important thing about Juliana and Cynthia is that we trust them 1000% with our baby. I know the big dog group is safe for Lois because they all have perfect energy and temperaments, and because Juliana and Cynthia wouldn't have it any other way. I know that if Lois gets too tired or too hot, they'll pick her up and carry her or put water on her to cool her off. Juliana and Cynthia have such great energy which I believe is why they are so successful, why the dogs and humans all love them, and why their packs are so balanced and stable. I know Lois loves them as much as she does her own parents (which makes me both happy and sad), and I'm pretty sure they love her just as much as we do. My only complaint is that they won't let me come on the dog walks with them ;)

Extremely dissatisfied with Jo and her dog training company. She wanted us to pay upfront a big…read moreamount, which we did and then she ghosted us. She came in twice for the training session. Her methods were okay. She wanted us to spray water on our dog's face if he jumped on the counter, which was counter productive as our dog was intelligent enough to jump when we were not around. She never called after two visits and as Covid struck, she completely disappeared. She had guaranteed that this is a commitment of a lifetime, it was all lies.

She is always reliable and flexible (we sometimes have crazy schedules since my wife is in school). She is a great communicator, which is great for us since we are a bit obsessed with our dog and we always want to make sure he is happy and doing okay. She also sends us pictures of his park visits, which we absolutely love. Most of all, our dog LOVES her and he LOVES his pack of friends. When she walks through the door, he can hardly contain his excitement. We can't recommend Kristi enough.
