I'm so happy he is back home with me and on the mend. I can't thank you enough for looking after him.

Dr. Smith was recommended to us by another vet who does in home services (Dr. Nagel) that had…read morehelped us out with a peaceful journey for our dog Minnie last year. Unfortunately, our other dog needed the same journey this morning. Both were over 16 years old. Dr. Smith is absolutely wonderful. Just like Dr. Nagel. Professional, caring, respectful etc... Making the decision to send you pet on their journey is extremely sad and difficult. Once you make that decision, you want someone who not only loves their own pets, but will give your pet the respect and love they deserve to go on their journey. Dr. Smith and her husband are amazing. I highly recommend them to help you in this situation that no one wants to deal with. She was so kind and loving to my dog and tried to even console me (a 57 year old grown man)... which I am sure wasn't easy!! Our pets are a huge part of our lives. They give us so much unconditional love, that even on the darkest days (like today) they teach us about the importance of time and appreciation. Thank you Dr. Smith for taking care of our "Wolfie." ... and my family!!!

I was initially quoted one price, but when I returned, it ended up being higher than expected. I'm completely willing to pay for quality care just not for something that ends up being significantly more than what was originally discussed. That said, they did work with me and made things right, which I really appreciated. The front staff is amazing friendly, helpful, and easy to work with. The vets are also wonderful and clearly care about the animals. Even the vet that looks like a character straight out of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland is good. He's maybe not the friendliest, but he gets the job done and he's alright too.

I undertook a significant amount of research on Golden breeders in the extended area, focusing specifically on hobby breeders that had wonderful sir and dam lines that were well documented and highly reviewed. Tammy and Dream Golden Retrievers fit the bill. From the first series of communications, Tammy was awesome. It is so clear that she loves Goldens, and she provided us with a WEALTH of information. Everything from how to prepare our home and children, to the best vet to select, to the best trainers in our area. I can't imagine doing this on our own after having Tammy's support. Visiting the litter it was clear she had such an amazing Mom (Willow) and Dad (Doc) - https://k9data.com/pedigree.asp?ID=1081443. Tammy was very thoughtful in selecting our puppy with our input, and our sweet girl Scout has been wonderful. She is a blast at home, very smart and picks up to training quickly, and even our trainer has told us that she "fell in love" with Scout! We provide a VERY strong recommendation for Tammy and Dream Golden Retrievers!!!!! Some pictures of our beautiful Scout :).

She claimed that her GPS couldn't locate my house, but no one has ever had problems locating my house anytime before using GPS. #2 She seemed knowledgable, but my general impression was something was just a little *off* about her. 10 times out of 10, my intuition is pretty spot on. So, I told her that I'll text her in the morning prior to coming if I decide to bring my dog to be puppy sat. If I choose to come, I will text, bring the signed agreements & and said puppy. #3 I had last minute emergencies come up and decided she would not be the best fit for my needs at this time & did not follow up. I received a long text saying I owed a cancellation fee. Huh? I a) never signed any documents & b) never said I was for sure scheduling time. This led to her harassing me over text message about a cancellation fee - and my response was: you aren't going to bully me into services that i didnt sign up for & that i didnt agree to do. So kick rocks or else I'll be getting my attorneys & the authorities involved. Not a good experience and I think quite frankly she's a fraud.
