Pet Boarding Training near Calabasas

“I've been riding on and off since I was a very young girl. Had two horses if my own. I rode by instinct. I wanted to learn how to ride with some skill and ability to communicate with horses. My friend introduced me to Robert and his wonderful staff.
I am starting at the very basics and am amazed how much I am learning and improving over time. I am 70 years old and having a great time. Robert is great. Patient but clearly I charge so that I feel like I am learning each time I ride. I love coming to the ranch even when I don't ride.“

“Great Doctors! Friendly service! Nice park to walk the pup before or after your visit and its right across the street from the beauty of the Malibu beaches! They have treated all of my dogs with care and respect for the last 15+ years“

“I can't say enough positive things about Muttineer Dog Training! Thank you so much to Jocelyn for helping me train my very shy and sensitive puppy, Wren. Each week that we met with Jocelyn, we learned more- it really helped me feel like Wren and I were learning how to communicate. Jocelyn truly understands dogs, and it shows. Wren warmed up to her and loved the training exercises- it really helped build her confidence. I will happily refer anyone in need of dog training to Jocelyn at Muttineer!“

“Fay is an absolute Angel! I can’t say enough positive things about the entire experience of leaving my 2 girls with her. I have a geriatric 14.5 year old who is now going senile so she’s special needs. I really need someone I trust to be patient and kind to her. Fay is wonderful. I got updates and didn’t worry one bit. They’re in the BEST hands with Fay. Thank you, Fay. ♥️“

“Karl was fantastic! He worked with my reactive Chihuahua, Tuna, and provided exactly the tools I needed. In just 5 sessions, we made significant progress and she's no longer barking at the front door as much, which was a major issue. Karl’s approach gave me confidence that we can continue improving Tuna's behavior using the techniques he taught us. Highly recommend for anyone with a reactive small dog!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​“

“Allen and his staff were amazing with our puppy. He has learned a lot and is on his way to being the best puppy. They would send us many videos throughout the board and train and make us feel comfortable through out the process“

“Great little place! They treat my old pet very well, she is 16! They take in the old pets early to ease them from stress, my girl is in and out and always looks beautiful with her little bows. My younger pet goes there too and loves it.“

“I've visited Pet Lover’s Resort three times, although never with my own dog. On the first occasion, I brought my sister’s dog, and on the subsequent visits, I took my cousin’s dog. The service was excellent on the first and second visits, and the pricing was reasonable. During the second visit, I requested grooming and a curtain trim for my cousin’s dog, which was done well for around $60.

However, my experience on the third visit was different. I requested only a basic grooming service—just a wash and blow dry, without any additional services like haircuts, teeth brushing, or nail trims. They initially quoted $90 for this, which seemed unreasonable, given that I had paid less for more services previously. After discussing the pricing with the owner, she agreed to lower it to $65. Later, I received a call from the front desk stating the charge would be $60, which I accepted. However, upon arrival, I was informed the fee was $65, as initially discussed. The inconsistency and lack of clear communication were frustrating, as it wasn’t about the extra five dollars, but rather the principle of the situation. Additionally, after the third visit, I noticed that my cousin's dog did not smell like anything at all, which was disappointing. This added to my annoyance, as I expected at least a pleasant scent after grooming.“

“My pup, Sadie Juliana, absolutely loves going to Simi Valley Pet Resort! The staff is incredibly kind and attentive—she gets so excited with full-body wiggles and happy head shakes whenever she sees them. I know she’s in great hands. They always take such good care of her and are happy to give her a little extra attention when needed. It’s a wonderful team, and I have total peace of mind knowing she’s safe and loved while I’m at work.“

“I can't overstate this -- Laura changed my life. The first year of Cooper's life (the pre-Laura era) was extremely challenging. He would bark non-stop, had horrible separation anxiety, and was all around unruly. He has such a sweet heart, but I didn't know what to do with him. I had 3 other trainers, and while he made progress, we were still in a real bind -- I couldn't leave him at home because he would bark non-stop (which broke my heart and wasn't fair to the neighbors), and I also couldn't bring him with me anywhere because he was really disruptive. In just 6 sessions, Laura completely transformed our relationships. I can now leave the house without him losing it -- but even better, I can now bring him with me places as a well behaved companion. Laura really taught me how to communicate with him, and how my lack of discipline wasn't actually being sweet to him, it was confusing him. All that to say, 10 out of 10, Laura is godsend, and I couldn't recommend her more highly.“

“Khris is the best. We always know our dogs our well taken care of and he makes sure to send pictures and keep us updated!“

“I brought my standard poodle in a couple weeks ago, and I was very happy with how she was introduced to the facility and how they checked her thoroughly and then they treated her really well and gave her a wonderful cut and full groom. I'm going to bring my other mini golden doodle there. I'm glad I found them.“

“We had to evacuate this week due to the Mountain Fire and I needed to find a kennel innediately. Rebecca assured me that our dog would be well looked-after. I dropped her off that afternoon and they lived up to my expectations. They hand-fed her, walked her and groomed her (at my request) and texted me to let me know how she was doing. I would definitely recommend Barks & Rec.“

“I took my rottweiler Vulkan to Topanga pet resort , and the results were fantastic! The trainers are skilled, patient, and really understand the breed. They tailored the training to my dog's needs, and I noticed a huge improvement in his behavior. The staff is friendly, and the facility is clean and safe.“

“Great but sad experience. We lost our family pet at no fault to them. They made the experience as pleasant as possible and helped with the process. They were great and even sent a card to us signed by the staff. We had our pet cremated through them also.“

“We are so happy we found this wonderful facility for both boarding and daycare! The service and attention to our pup feels so personal and loving. Thank you, our friends at Sit & Stay.“

“Brittney is amazing and all of her coaches are super nice and extremely patient and helpful. We love this place!“

“This was my first time using Muttserati. My dog was very relaxed and comfortable and I was pleased with the grooming. Will definitely use again.“

“Went in for some advice for my 10 month old white faced cockatiel, Betty was very informative and welcoming and complimented the state of my bird which I thought that was very comforting considering I'm a first time bird owner they have a wide variety of different bird toys, good sturdy perches with natural wood, bird cages, and types of birds to choose from, all the birds seemed tame, not too loud, un-clipped, clean, well fed, happy and well taken care of I will definitely be going there In the future for any of my bird needs“

“The service was excellent from start to finish, and the entire staff was professional and caring.
I especially want to highlight Dr. Vlad, who went above and beyond during our visit. You can truly see his genuine love for animals in the way he interacts with them and handles each case. He took the time to provide thorough consultation, answered all of my questions patiently, and made sure I fully understood my pet's condition and treatment options. His expertise and compassionate approach made all the difference. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for quality veterinary care.
Thank you again for taking such good care of my pet!“
