    Jenny is such a gem! She is so kind and caring, and helped train us as much as our puppy. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of training!

    I am so happy that I found Jenny on Yelp for my mini Australian Labradoodle, Obi. He started basic puppy training and is continuing puppy kindergarten and my oh my, Obi has grown up so much. Thanks to Jenny, my Obi went through his puppy phase a lot easier than expected. Along with all the socialization he is getting with other puppies his age, he is so well-behaved with other dogs and humans when we go on walks, out in public, and car rides. As a first time doodle owner, I learned so much from Jenny. Definitely look into her training if you're in the valley area, YOU WILL NOT REGRET! PS. She takes amazing pics of your fur babies during puppy school!

    We needed someone to care for Sunny, our six month old Golden Retriever, while we went on a trip. More importantly, we hoped to find someone to help with training after many sessions with two other trainers as well as hours watching training videos and no significant improvement. Our breeder highly recommended Jenny (owner/operator of Wet Noses) for board and train and although we live 53 miles away, we decided to make the trek after a lengthy phone conversation with Jenny in which she patiently answered all of our questions. Sunny stayed with Jenny for three weeks and we visited a few times for training sessions so Jenny could teach us how to continue training at home. In addition, Jenny sent us photos and text updates along with many videos in which she was not only training OUR DOG but also added detailed voice overs to clarify what she was doing and why she was doing it. So Jenny trained Sunny and then trained us! Sunny has been home for five days and I'm still realizing more of the positive changes that have taken place thanks to Jenny. Sunny is no longer jumping on and mouthing/biting us nor counter surfing. He now follows many commands and is so much easier to manage during things like walks, ear cleaning, and family dinner time. We've always known Sunny was a sweet boy but my goodness is he more enjoyable after being with Jenny! Sunny has always been very timid around other dogs. We tried to provide many opportunities for socialization but Sunny would mostly cower and run away. After several days at Wet Paws, Sunny had the confidence to start playing with some of the other dogs. I suspect that his prior timidity with dogs was at least partially the reason he was constantly jumping on and mouthing/biting us; we were his only playmates! Yesterday I took Sunny to visit a friend's dog and they enjoyed hours of play; thus I had a puppy who was ready to nap once we returned home and I needed to make dinner. My husband, children, and I are truly in awe of Sunny's transformation. Jenny is clearly extremely knowledgeable but also exceptionally organized, communicative, and professional. She was so loving with Sunny and also very considerate of us all. Sunny is already booked for another stay with Jenny when we go out of town in the fall. We feel so fortunate to have found her!

    Our highest praise and strongest recommendations for Jenny and her training expertise! We worked with her when our husky-shepherd Everest was 4 months old and then again a year later. The second time, Everest had growled at one of our children, which of course utterly terrified us. Jenny took us right back into the fold and, over the course of a few months, gave us the tools and understanding we needed to create a safer, happier home for all of us. Jenny is kind, fun, of course brilliant with dogs, and endlessly patient in translating them for humans and helping humans adapt to them. We were not first time dog owners but, as Jenny says, huskies and shepherds are college-level dogs, and we needed to level up our education to keep up with her. It was so worth it. I loved Everest very much, but it took Jenny to really introduce me to her. 10/10!

    Jenny at Wet Noses Dog training is THE BEST! Just ask our pup, Lulu. Our Chow Chow was about 10-11 weeks when we found Jenny and we sure are thankful. We started with puppy play school and private obedience training lessons. At play school she learned how to properly interact with other dogs her age and Jenny does an amazing job with exposing the dogs to outside sounds, textures, obstacles and everything in between that a growing dog needs to learn. Plus she sends the most adorable photos/videos to show what your dog did that day. This program is a MUST for any young dog. Obedience training just set our dog and us up for success. Jenny teaches the command to the dog and shows us as pet owners how to properly train and reward our dog! But it's not just cookie-cutter training. She would analyze our dog's behavior and come up with creative ways for our dog to best respond and always ways to make it fun! One session we even brought our older dog with us to work on behavior issues between the two dogs. She sent us thorough emails with any notes, helpful tips, and various tools/toy suggestions as needed. Our Lulu is now 1 year old and has amazingly grown into such a good girl. We have Jenny to thank for that. We'll be infrequently returning to Jenny for general follow-up sessions if any issues arise with our growing girl or just to refresh training from time to time. Highly recommend.

    Jenny has been a huge help I'm not only training our dog Kilo but training us as dog parents. Kilo is a rescue that is 1.5 years old and a huge energy and prey driven dog. Jenny had the most patience helping us and helping kilo. She did not only stick to regular training but also asked us what we're things we wanted to work on that we're behaviors at home. She went over sit down stay and also things that were specific to his breed such as recall and place. She took the time and explained in a manner that we would understand. Jenny was referred to us by a family member and I truly would recommend her to any friend or family member for any breed. As she understands the different types of training and stages and always believes in setting them up for success!

    So grateful for Jenny! I enrolled Mabel in Puppy Kindergarten when she was 12 weeks old and since then, she's graduated and now attending Puppy Play School (photo below). The kindergarten program was extremely insightful in learning how to properly train and communicate with my pup from Day 1. A lot of what I thought were "naughty" behaviors were in turn necessary behaviors for growing puppies. Redirect, redirect, redirect! Jenny is patient, creative in her methods, and always available for questions post training. Mabel has grown so much (and confidently!) since the program and it's all thanks to Jenny~

    I do not know where to begin. Last week was Boba's last Puppy Socialization and I have bittersweet feeling about it and here's why: Boba has grown to such an AMAZINGGG PUPPY all because of Jenny. She was VERY ATTENTIVE of him and his needs and made sure that he is SAFE, HAPPY, & HEALTHY. Now for us first time dog pawrents, that's all that matters. But Jenny went above and beyond. Jenny prepared different activities every week to help Boba and other puppies be exposed to different environments and senses. She also made sure that GAMES are very INTERACTIVE or MENTALLY STIMULATING. That helped our Boba a LOT to become a CONFIDENT PUP! After the class, Jenny provides feedback of Boba's PROGRESS and also took BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS of him. It feels so good watching Boba grow and getting to know more of his personality and behavior. And that's all because of Jenny! Boba was about 13 weeks old when we took him to Jenny. He was a tiny little corgi who was a little anxious. He is now 21 week old CONFIDENT & HAPPY PUPPY! I couldn't be more thankful for Jenny. On the other stuff that some dog pawrents were wondering! - The area is very WELL MAINTAINED and SECURED. We felt very AT EASE leaving Boba with her and the other pups! - We felt that Boba was SUPERVISED the entire time! - Jenny is a very KNOWLEDGEABLE trainer. She understands dog behaviors and she has given us advices on how to BETTER COMMUNICATE with our Boba I've attached a TON of photos to give you guys a visual story of Boba's amazing journey with Jenny! Boba is already missing Jenny and his friends at school but I'm very sure he's going to see more of Jenny in the near future. Thank you again, Jenny!!!

    Great place to train your new pup! The puppy social classes are wonderful and have helped my dogs be so friendly with others. Her training is also great - helping to train people to understand their dogs and how to best train each together.

    Having the time of his life

    Jenny is the best! We trust her with our dog completely, and our little munchkin loves her! I highly recommend her for boarding as well as for training!

    We just finished Puppy Kindergarten with Jenny and couldn't be happier with how far our Sophie (and we) have come! Jenny was so patient and kind with these two first-time puppy parents. She answered our questions clearly and focused our work on the most pressing issues. She is an excellent teacher. She would always model first and then have us practice the training techniques to make sure we understood. We looked forward to our sessions each week and our time together always flew by!! At the end of each session Jenny would follow up our in-person training with written directions. Her email would usually arrive before we even made it home! We highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking to learn how to a happy positive relationship with their pup!

    I discovered Jenny after spending hours looking for a trainer. When I had my consultation call with her I knew right away it would be a perfect match. She is so knowledgeable in all areas and answers all my questions. During our sessions she really tries to show me how to do everything and doesn't seem phased when I ask her to repeat herself or need more clarification. She's patient, friendly and overall an amazing trainer. My pup loves her so much. I've always rescued dogs so being able to start "from scratch" has been easy with Jenny helping me along the way. Poppy is 5 months and can sit, down, up, off, leave it, working on heal and will get to do fun tricks in the future. The amount of work she's put in shows. I am so thankful to have Wet Nose Dog Training in my pocket as I couldn't imagine my pup being trained any other way. Looking forward to her progress in a year from now! Oh and she takes the best photos! I always love when I leave poppy behind for a play date because I know I'll get a nice little photo shoot after. I can never have enough pics of my baby.

    If you're looking for a place where your dog will be loved like family, look no further than Dog…read moresitting by Ally I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ally and the care she gives to every dog. From the moment I met her, I could tell this wasn't just a business--it is truly her passion. She has such a kind heart, an incredible work ethic, and a genuine love for animals that you can feel immediately. My standard poodle, Chewy, goes to daycare with Ally , and when we went to Hawaii for nine days, I never once worried about him. Instead of being kept in kennels, the dogs get to live together in a comfortable home environment. They can relax on dog beds, sleep on furniture, play together, and simply be dogs. It's such a refreshing and loving alternative to traditional boarding. One thing that meant the world to me was how often Ally kept me updated. Every morning and every evening she sent me photos and updates of Chewy having fun, relaxing, and making friends. Seeing those pictures while I was away gave me complete peace of mind and allowed me to truly enjoy my vacation, knowing he was happy, safe, and loved. I also love seeing how much thought she puts into making the dogs' days special. During the hot weather, she even sets up fun water play for them, and it's obvious from every picture that the dogs are having the time of their lives. Although I've only known Ally for a short time, I genuinely admire her. She is young, hardworking, compassionate, and has built something truly special. It's rare to find someone who cares this deeply about every dog in her care. Chewy absolutely loves going there, and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to leave him with Allie again. I recommend Ally's Boarding & Daycare wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and happy place for their dog. Your pup will be treated like family, and that's something you simply can't put a price on. Thank you, Ally for taking such incredible care of Chewy. We are so grateful to have found you!

    I guess it's time for another update because somehow every year I become even more grateful for…read moreAlly and Travis. Lately, I've seen so many heartbreaking stories about doggy daycares: dogs getting hurt, neglected, escaping, or simply not being treated with the love they deserve. Every time I read one, my first thought is the same: thank God Nova has Ally and Travis. Nova has been coming here since he was just 6 months old. He's now about to turn 5, which means they've been part of nearly his entire life. They've watched him grow from a timid, reactive puppy into the confident, happy dog he is today. They know his quirks, his routines, what makes him nervous, what makes him excited, and they have loved every version of him along the way. As dog owners, we all know there are very few people we'd trust with our entire heart. That's what our dogs are. They're not just pets, they're family. And somehow Ally and Travis have earned a level of trust that I didn't even know was possible. I've left Nova with them for the longest periods I've ever left him with anyone, and I've never once laid awake wondering if he was okay. There has never been a moment where I questioned whether he was safe, loved, exercised, or cared for. That kind of peace is priceless, and if you're a dog parent, you know exactly what I mean. What means the most to me is that Nova makes the choice himself every single time. The second he realizes where we're going, he's beside himself with excitement. If he doesn't get to see Ally or Travis, he cries. When he does, he runs to them without looking back. As someone whose dog was once fearful of people, seeing him love someone that deeply tells me everything I need to know. Dogs don't fake trust. They don't pretend to feel safe. They either do, or they don't. Nova has never questioned whether Ally and Travis are his people. Over the years, they've been there through my work schedule, my vacations, family emergencies, and every moment in between. They have given me something I can never truly repay: the ability to go through life knowing that the biggest piece of my heart is safe. That feeling is something every dog parent hopes to find, and so few actually do. Even if life takes me somewhere else one day, if I'm ever back in town and need someone to watch Nova, there is no question where he's going. I would drive hours just to leave him with Ally and Travis because trust like this isn't replaceable. They're not just our daycare: they're part of Nova's family. If you're scrolling through reviews wondering whether this is the right place for your dog, I hope this helps. Five years later, after hundreds of drop-offs and pickups, I can say with complete confidence that choosing Ally and Travis was one of the best decisions I've ever made for Nova. They have loved him like he was their own, and I will spend the rest of his life being grateful for that.

However, after a few short, 3-6 day trips, we left our dog for 2 weeks while we went on our honeymoon in June, and things went poorly. To start with, Morgain made us wait 15+ minutes outside her home (which is in Van Nuys and not in Studio City as Yelp claims) and claimed she had "no idea" what time we were dropping off. Of course, I could have pointed out to her that I had put the drop-off time in the initial booking email AND the follow-up confirmation email, but I decided to let that go...But it was frustrating because we were on our way to the airport and hadn't anticipated such a delay. During our vacation, we didn't get very many photos of our dog, while we were away because she claimed her phone was broken. And then when we came back to pick him up, Morgain again made us wait outside for 10-15 minutes, despite the fact that I had emailed AND texted a half hour before. She didn't apologize but gave some excuse, and then proceeded to hand us our zip-lock baggie (clearly labeled with our dog's name) that had some other dog's kibble in it that looked very different from our dog's food. She rushed us away, but when we got into the car, we noticed our dog had a scab and a patch of missing fur on his nose. Clearly, his nose had been cut and had bled because the scab was dark red dried blood. I texted Morgain to ask what happened, and she claimed she "had no idea" but maybe he scratched it on some bougainvillea in the backyard. Basically, my dog had a gash on his face, and she claims not to have noticed him bleeding. I understand dogs are like little kids and can get scrapes and cuts, but the fact she says she didn't notice and didn't bother to tell us about it is upsetting. Luckily, my dog healed and his fur grew back weeks later. Since that incident in June, we have found another a dog sitter on Rover who has a big yard for our dog to play in but is much better about sending daily photos and keeping a close eye on our dog.

The first couple times we used Sitter4Paws we had a really great experience with the sitters that were assigned to our senior, diabetic cat. Last year, my mother unexpectedly passed away, and our regular cat sitter was unavailable for half of the trip home. We booked Sitter4Paws the second half of the trip, and let them know about the circumstances and requested sitters that had seen Jodie before so that we could rest easy during a very difficult time. Of course we know that can't always be accommodated due to scheduling, so for the first visit a new sitter came to see Jodie. On the evening of my mother's passing, we got a text from Sitter4Paws that the sitter felt he may have made a mistake with our cat's insulin dosage. It was revealed to us that instead of giving her her normal 2.25 unit dose, he gave her 22.5 units - ignoring the taped off/labeled syringes, our explicit written instructions in the app, and additional photos/diagrams of what a full syringe should look like. Thank god he realized his mistake, otherwise our cat would have slowly died alone in our apartment - and this would have happened immediately after losing my mom. I understand mistakes can happen, but the fact that a sitter was uncertain with potentially life-threatening medication if administered improperly and didn't even think to reach out to us first was quite shocking. Sitter4Paws took full responsibility, admitted their mistake, said they would take steps to make sure something like this would never happen again, and covered her 4 day ER stay, but it never should have gotten to that point. Again - we did have great sitters who took care of our cat wonderfully - but the uncertainty of who you can get especially with medication involved means that we can no longer recommend this service with confidence.
